i like the sun—
it shines, forever, on me,

i am scared one day it shall
disappear,
and i will have nothing left but my heart,

the broken, old, rotten one,
hurt by the burden of life,

maybe in time my heart shall rest,
but for now, with the sun, it aches,

for the sun cannot always shine,
and I cannot always blossom.
i tried so hard, but they didn't listen to my poems. Again, i never thought i would be sharing these, but if you are reading this, "hello."

It went quiet
Not because it gave up
Bt because it was saving me.

It felt too much
So it chose silence
Over shuttering.

It held the storm
Behind closed doors
So I could keep breathing.

It's not numb
Just protecting
What's still healing
I, I Know Peace
I Live Peace
I Am Peace

I, I Know Love
I Live Love
I am Love

Peace, Peace and Love
Peace and Love
Peace and Love

the memories when come upon
shred heart to pieces
the mole on the right side of your forehead
the creases next to your eyes
your beautiful smile lines
knowing the warmth of your hand was comfort
holding your icy cold was terrible agony
beloved was buried, unseen to others
so was a piece of my heart.

What is love?
Love isn't for the ones
Like me
Soft-hearted, fragile heart
Love is for those
Who are careless

What is love
My heart is too fragile for love

My heart ...

sweetheart ...
here is ...
the place ...
where you can rest ...
with a peace ...
and to enjoy ...
as you are in  the paradise ...
with a sweet great melody ...
that makes you happy ...
all the times ...

here it the place ...
it's my heart , sweetheart ...
between my heart's beats ...
while it all dances ...
only for you ...

there ...
into my heart ...
it's your place ...
where no dreams ...
and no wishes ...
only the reality ...
that you dreamed always about ...

it's my heart ...
where you will be ...
always ...
and forever alive ...

As my body gets weaker,
my mind grows stronger.
But I can't help but wonder how much longer my heart can hold on.
Hold on to the faith, to the dream.
But more than anything,
I wonder how much longer the love in my heart can hold on to me

I could have said a million things
in a million different ways.
All of which would have made you stay
a million more days.
But when the time came,
I thought about the future,
and I could never say with confidence
that my feelings would stay the same.
In the end, I couldn't let my fears
break my heart or yours.
Not when there's a million other doors
to open and explore.

Sitting on the couch
Outside the dressing room.
Baby, you walk in and make my heart go boom.
You ask me what I think, but you know what I’m bout to say.
No matter what you wear, you take my breath away.
The burning desire to protect you
The fire inside driving me towards you
This power you've given me is known by few
This love you have for me; to me is so new
You hold the key to my heart, my fire, my power, my balance
Simple words on paper do not do you justice
However, I must make these simple insignificant words suffice
So that my love for you may be known to its full extent
I must make you more than just content!
