Hey,

     I never know how to start conversations
     So I figured I would write it out
     Ill call it a poem
     and you'll fall no doubt  
     It's kinda cheesy
     But I figured it might be easy
     Roses are red and
     Violets are blue
     But none of that matters if I don't know about you
     How is your day
     and how is the weather
     I hope it's not too cold
     but if it is grab a sweater
     I'm getting off topic
     I should have started with hi
     Its probably too late now
     I might try later
     bye

Here’s a true story:
I was walking home one day
You whistled over at me
But I didn’t look your way

“Hey Baby, turn those legs around”
Crossing the street, you looked me up and down
“C’mon, angel, let’s go get a drink”
But I returned a frown

I’m not your angel, baby
I won’t save your shallow soul
Didn’t hurt when I flew down from heaven
But it will when you rise from below

You can try to drag me down
But my wings burn to the touch
If you ask me what I think of you
I’ll reply “Not much.”

Don’t try to put me in my place
I’m soaring high above
Your ideas of my purpose
And I don’t need your love

I’m not your angel, baby
I won’t join your sultry soul
Didn’t hurt when I flew down from heaven
But it will if you crawl from below

I’m a strong, proud, woman
I was created to be free
I’m not yours for the taking, baby
See, I belong to me

Hey I,
I just wanted to say hi,
Not that I'm trying to pry,
I think you're pretty and I,
I feel like you're making me high,
And I,
I'm just a bit weird but I,
I want you to notice me so I,
I just want to say hi

I woke up this morning.
Then I went back to sleep.
Twenty minutes past my alarm, I realized that public education has been ranked as something mildly important, so I got out of bed and dressed myself in the clothing that I had picked out the night before - varying shades of grey. Not fifty. I'd say about four.

A year ago
Can you believe?
Already a year has passed
I survived the turmoil and trauma
A pain I cannot even begin to fathom today
For that, I am stronger

A summer ago
I had sworn you off
You came back
Can you believe?
I was filled with caution and fear and light
A friend had returned
For that, I am kinder

A season ago
The leaves were falling as was I
Can you believe?
I understood the capacity of what I feel for you
A capacity I cannot even fathom today
For that, I am lighter

A month ago
Can you believe?
Already a month has passed
I grew in the love and warmth you interlaced between our fingers  
I was filled with laughter and comfort
For that, I am happier

It's just so hard to ignore you
Just so hard to not look at you
I don't know what it is about you
That makes me feel like I do
No matter what they say
I can't think of you that way...

But It's hard to say hey
Or just smile and simply wave
I don't know why I feel this way
And when you smiled today
Oh how it takes my breath away...

hey.
Just because
You lower your
Eyes doesn't
Mean I didn't
See them meet
Mine

We all do know this is true

That life one day we must leave

By a gruesome unwilling way

Or by the time of aging naturally

But the thing I must now implore

Is your thoughts on a life after this

As I lay unmoving in my stony grave

Will my soul feel as if it's amiss?

So mermaids, humans, elven and wolves

Please give me a piece of your time

What do you think become's of our souls

While our bodies rest buried beneath lime

"Hey moon,
                
                    Please forget to fall down."

She whispers a silent wish
Caught inside a midnight dream
Where she knew she was smiling
A little too constantly

Deep down she knew
The night wouldn't stay long
Soon daylight will come
To burn away her songs

She continues serenading
Still wanting someone to hear her
Please let the moon know
Her little secret

Grant her the night
Give her the stars
For her soothing comfort
Is right here with the moon
  
                        



                           ...with him in her arms*.
