We are shadow puppets, you and I
Dancing on the walls after dark
Floating between empty spaces
Surviving off of the single light
The single light which is embers
Embers from a ferocious fire
A fire from our *******
Untamed and free
I seek the rim of your silhouette
Playfully chasing
Painfully embracing
Embracing the darkness and embers thereof
And when our passion runs wild again
When the fire burns brighter and stronger once more
Slowly, we’ll fade out, leave the walls to the brightness
See as it eats us, nothing to discuss
Nothing to say, but a touch left to have
But we’ll meet again, don’t worry, my shadow puppet friend
When the fire burns out, passion is glory
Embers are present, embers are all
And I’ll see your outlines, I’ll hear the shriek of your call
Because what else is there to a shadow
Than the life of a light
A light that we hold
Until the last ember do us part.

When the moment we cross our path
No one can explain the pleasure I feel
My world stop, when I heard you laugh
My heart beat as fast as it capture well

You're like a rose bloom in the garden
Where your beauty can be seen
Your like an angel in heaven
That guide me now and then

Yesterday, I don't believe in destiny
But in the morning gentle as dew
That perspective in my mind faded away
'Cause you just came in a blew

Oh my lovely and dearest treasure!
I'll keep you and love you forever
As your love to me, gives me courage
To dwell all the life challenge.

3 years I've stood waiting,
for him to come around
hoping, praying, crying
waiting for him.

3 years I've stood waiting,
looking at you from across the room
as others dance around our separate crowds
but the only person I see is you.

3 years I've stood waiting,
for you to open your eyes
but instead I know the truth
which leaves me breaking,
broken,
gone.
i had a bad night tonight because of someone, and as you can tell from this poem it was because of someone i really like. but it's fine right?

I just want
a man
who is sweet
and
wholesome
and
kind
and
will wash my
hair.

I wish I knew about love
How to spot out a fake
I wish I knew how love breathed
How love smiled
How much love loved me
Sadly, I don't know
I just wanted love
I wish I knew love
And if love loved me

I’m a hopeless romantic

And for that reason,

I ignore the warnings in my head

The ones that say that i’m

Just repeating history.



You see,

Most people burn themselves

And learn to move further away

from the flames.



I, however, burn myself

Mumble some profanity

And continue to feed the fire.

I pull my hair back more than I used to now.
I know life isn't fair, but this is something I'll never get used to. How could anyone?
Honestly, hypocrisy is to say it's better to loved and lost than to never have loved.
Because, heartbreak to me, is the worst of all of the above.
Fly away all doves.
Fly away all doves.

hopeless romanticism
is an endless pit
of effortless falling
but reckless hypnotism

To My Soulmate,

When you enter my world
I will give you everything
I will become your anything
And when we are apart
You couldn't fathom
Such a lonely and empty feeling
So stay by my side
So that we can be whole
Together
A home inside of me
A palace within you

Sincerely, a soul in search of someone searching
