Perfect Love

All we had of laughs and tears,
We both kept it a secret so no one hears,
I thought we could stay together,
But I knew these days wouldn’t last forever,
She first treated me like a friend,
But I knew this couldn’t be the end,
I saw the sun rising upon the shores,
Who would stay in while she could be outdoors,
We used to have fun under the rain,
Such moments were magical that words cannot explain,
Till that day when we had our first kiss,
That day is in my mind and I will always miss,
The love we shared grew strongly and fast,
She was everything to me, my present, future and past,
Words cannot describe the beauty of her eyes,
She is perfect that she can never tell lies,
The happiness of the world is felt in her smile,
Describing it would take years and years, not just a while,
All the love we felt was real,
It was innocent, perfect and pure that no one can feel,
Keeping us from each other would be tough,
Even the strongest power on earth won’t be enough,
She was the closest one to my heart,
Nothing in the world could make us apart,
She thought I didn’t need her that much,
But all what I needed was only her touch,
She is the one I loved with all my might,
The one dream to kiss tonight.

Story of Weed

This is the story of a weed
To which no one would feed.
While it’s partner the rose,
Was the one everybody choose.
To be ripped away,
Only made the weed determined to stay.
The rose on the other hand
Was the superior of the land.
What would once make the rose blossom and bloom,
Will turn out to be it’s doom.
The weed will then pay its respects,
and show who was treated the best.
For the weed knew,
That the rose would someday suffer too.
That day struck,
and came without luck.
The rose wilted with the guilt
It had once in splendid built.
It then realized
It had only worn a disguise.
A disguise that brought the attention
That would have never been mentioned.
For the first time the rose looked up at the weed,
and felt the feeling of greed.
It questioned why
It would in pain die.
Or why it had the need to cry.
But what hurt the rose the most,
Was knowing the life it had chose.
It was born into seeing only its brilliance,
and now slowly dies learning the meaning and virtue of persistence.

Long For

Sittin alone,
In artificial light,
Tryin to make it,
Through one last night.

A mix of emotions,
A heart full of woe,
Wondering where,
All this will go.

I felt it was right,
From the very first day,
But in just one second,
That was taken away.

I’m left here alone,
In fear and in pain,
Hoping the chance,
Will come back again.

I feel as though,
I’ve been taken apart,
Pieced back in the wrong sequence,
Missing half of my heart.

Sitting here blindly,
In search of my mind,
But the harder I look,
The less I can find.

What once came naturally,
Was cruelly taken away,
I’ve lost all trace of colour,
The world is now grey.

In seconds I fell,
From positive thoughts,
The creative talent,
That this one being brought.

But being out of my life,
Has left me so bare,
I have lost inspiration,
I’m left in confused despair.

I’m in my bed,
I toss and turn,
My eyes are red,
They’re sore, they burn.

The same thoughts,
Run through my mind,
Of someone who,
Is warm and kind.

I feel him slide,
His hand in mine,
And remember when,
We met first time.

Now that’s over,
I’m here alone,
Paranoia,
What have I done?

I’m all alone, I’ve lost my smile,
Wishing you had stayed a while,
Instead you ignore me when you like,
And fill my head with all your shit.

I’m over you, I’m out of love,
I’m lying here, I’ve had enough,
It’s been a while, but I’m okay,
I take life as it comes each day.

But when I feel I’ve let you go,
You tell me that you’ve missed me so,
And once again I’m in your trap,
Even though you don’t want me back.

So now I’m hooked just as before,
I lie here alone upon my floor,
Thinking of nothing else but you,
Adoration that’s so confused.

I think I’m okay, and that life will go on,
But each night it’s the same when I’m alone,
You say you care, and I believe each word,
But now I’m telling myself I’ve had enough.

I’m living in the past, life was better then,
I need you, we’re supposed to be friends,
But each day you say you don’t have the time,
Is when I realize that I have been blind.

You think you care about me, but this is a lie,
You try to be nice, and I always ask why,
This is not what you want, deep down inside,
And it’s me that gets hurt every single time.

So leave me alone, I need time to myself,
In times of need, it was you that helped,
But you’ve hurt me now, and things will change,
Right now, I don’t want to hear your name.

Everything you say, seems genuine to me,
But I’m hooked on you, it’s easy to see.
I wish things were simple like the start,
but you messed me about, And broke my heart.

I know I will forgive you, and be okay in time,
I never fully believed you’d ever be mine,
But I’m still feeling this everyday,
Wishing things hadn’t gone this way.

I need time alone, so I can move on,
And accept the fact, that I’m not the one,
So leave me to grieve at my own accord,
I don’t want to hear from you. Not one word.

As tiredness dries up these heavy eyes,
I sit alone but I can’t cry
The night is still and house is quiet,
I feel aggressive, my head’s a riot.

My music plays too soft to hear,
MY happy thoughts just disappear,
I sit alone, I feel the cold,
I long for the past, I’m getting old.

I tap the keys, they echo loud,
I’m tryin so hard to make no sound,
But everyone’s asleep, they cannot hear.
They do not know that I’m here.

The silence carries through the night,
The darkness blinds my only sight,
I sitting here wishing for the day,
To take the pain and suffering away.

I’m moving on, I’m starting again,
I’m not sure, if we should be friends.

I look at him, and see the past,
Wishing time would move on fast.

But blocking him out seems extreme,
And I’m not convinced it would help me.

I need to think this over, but it’s a mess,
I’m still being in love. I confess.

Lies, deception, and more and more lies,
Or was it all just a painful disguise?
He loves me, but can’t seem to work it out.
I question him to relieve my doubt.

But every single comment fogs my mind,
I remember him being warm and kind,
His answers are as confused as me,
The truth is something I will never see.

Wishing for clarity, and a little light,
To help me through each sleepless night,
I always believed he was the one for me,
But obviously that’s not how it’ll be.

Today

Finally, today was the day…
Just listen to every word I have to say…
You are the reason why I’m smiling at the start of the day…
Just seeing you read this poem takes my breath away…
Every time you are in pain, I wanna be there for you…
I wanna fight away all your tears…
and replace them with happiness
and take away all your fears…
Your heart beat is racing and you don’t know why…
but all I have to tell you is that
I will love you till I die…
Just follow me and my lead…
I wouldn’t trade you for the world,
you are all that I need…
The day we met, I can’t explain the way I felt….
Feeling all these emotions that I can’t even help…
Every little thing we do is so special to me….
We are meant to be and thats what I want you to see…
Look into your future and don’t think of your past…
Just stick with me and know that we will last…
I wanna give you all my love and heart…
Would you give me chance and a brand new start???
and I promise to treat you exactly like the first day…
and I promise that I will never go away….
Elizabeth I really do love you….
if I didn’t I would have never cried for you….

Three Mothers

That day, two people died.
No she was alone in the car.
(Thank God for that, some said)
But a tiny life vaporized
Far, far away.
Sniffles, tears, mourns, sighs,
Man in the hall
Baby in the bedroom.
The maid rocks and strokes,
The baby knows better.
“Oh, she’s dead! The love of my life!
Twenty years I have loved her! Twenty!”

A week later, she moved in.
Prettier than the first, the baby thought.
Reds, pinks, oranges flutter about
A touch of lipstick, a dab of rouge
We have a party to attend, after all,
(There’s always a party)
And you’re not invited!
Wails go unheeded
Feminine tantrums pampered.
Diapers everywhere
What’s the maid for, after all?
All alone at night?
You know I’m scared of the dark.
What happened to the occasional cuddles?
The tickles, the giggles, the tucking in?
A separate room?
Privacy?
(What’s that?)
Whims are adored,
Milk bottles ignored
(It was only an inch away)
The maid’s here overtime
At least she smiles
I thought he liked me…
I could be wrong.
He seems happier
But I miss the first smiles,
The first park totters
The first family videos-the laughs, the love
I want to be a part,
The toys are cute,
They’re still not you.

Arguments erupt,
Fights pick up,
He screams, she screams,
There’s banging and clanging.
There’s more fluttering-scarves, skirts, photo-frames,
A swish of black, a begging follower
The door slams
Cries, screams, pleadings
(No! No! Don’t go!)

He bursts in
(It’s nice to see him again)
It’s all because of you!
You won’t stop crying, wailing.
Why don’t you shut up?
See what you’ve done!
Now another’s gone.
Guilty hugs, fake apologies ensue,
Reminiscences of old.
(Where were you all this time?)

The maid was early
(The baby glad)
But she stood perplexed in the hall
Don’t leave me, too!
She blushes and tugs at her plait
Man smiles
(Relieved)
She trots into my room
And my six month old hazels
Beheld my third mother.

Start New

Love Lasting,
I guess you could call it a thing,
4 yrs it carried,
And now it’s all trying to be buried,
My first real love,
Got lost above,
And threw everything away,
There was nothing more to say,
After so many times he broke my heart,
It was like a shooting dart,
So many times,
So many crimes,
To much to handle,
So now here I am starting brand new,
Always wondering how I really got threw,
Now it’s hard to trust,
Even though I know I must,
But after the past,
How long will the truth last,
I always get hurt,
I always feel like I’m just dirt,
Are there people out there that are true,
I truly wish I knew,
I want to be happy,
And not sappy,
I want someone to be true to me,
Please help me see,
Make me believe there’s good not only bad,
Because bad is all I ever had,
I always go for those bad boys,
That are like little toys,
That just play and play,
And there’s nothing you can say,
There’s nothing you can do,
Or they’ll just forget all about you and be like who?
Like they never knew,
I just want to live my life,
And stop being stabbed with a knife,
Right where my heart is.
I just need to free my mind,
And really look what I need to find,
Im sick of being sad,
And that’s what I feel like that all I have ever had,
Now I want to start brand new,
And find my one true Boo.

First Love

I can’t get you out of my head
Its weighing my body down like lead
Im thinking about you twenty-four/seven
You used to make me feel like I was in heaven
My heart feels like its breaking
I cant stop it from aching
Why can’t I move on from you
We have already said adieu
I didn’t want to give you my heart
It began to happen from the start
You were my first and so far only love
In the end you pushed me away with a shove
You’ve hurt me too much to go back to you
Yet I cant stop thinking of all we’ve been through
I remember us laying out under the stars
Jumping away from each other when we heard the cars
When you held me in your arms you kept me warm
I was protected from everything, even a storm
You made me laugh, you made me smile
My time with you was completely worthwhile
I have tried so hard to forget and move on
I hate knowing from my life you are gone
I trusted you with everything I had
Because, boy, you made me so glad
I don’t think I will ever forget you
We were great together, us two.

New Life

unexpectedly
without warning
a world
I’m no longer winning

It rains
It stops
then you smile

one fine day
in my sweetest
morning delight
sleepless even
at night

without a fight,
you conquered me
where dreams
seem so right

you give life
and add colors
in my dying sight
I feel the adrenalin
in my veins
my heart goes faster
as you appear
you let time
pause and disappear

your lovely face
at first sight
lasts forever

your passion
captured me by heart
the day you smiled
making life worth
to survive

oh dear God,
let me have you
as I grow old
through this life
my loveliest sight
who gives light

don’t ever go,
let your light
shine the path
of my long lost life

for I will be
the knight
who try to fight
and love you
with all his might

for I will offer you
my life, my heart
just to have you
at this side
to be my precious
and only life

dear God, let
my one and only
heavenly light
who shines, give hopes
in my darkest fight be
the only meaning
and center
of my one last
new life…

Sadist

You called me your wife
and said I’m your life
The first day you called me
made me feel so happy

You kissed me on the first meeting
thinking its not wrong
Everyday you called me without fail
and I thought you were after me like a tail

When we met again
you tried to do things that were not right
Sooner or later,
you stopped your love

I thought of a reason,
and I realised after you touched me
all you could do was drifting away

Im starting to hate you
Im sorry but its true
You told me plenty of lies
and did those pathetic tries

Your killing me deep inside
with hundreds and thousands
of stabbing knives!

And now your gonna regret,
because your in trouble
come begging me Baby
try your best and dont be a pest
FOR ALL I CARE!

Im goin on a new path
for my new love
and I swear,
I will never find a sadist like you!

Just for you

For the first time i feel afraid
I’m afraid you’ll turn away
I’m wishing time would stay
whenever you are here

Because being with you
Is all I always wanna be
No one else but you
Has meant this much to me

I can’t pretend anymore
I have to let you know
How much you meant to me
For i am yours forevermore

I may not have much in this world
Money, looks nor fame
But this i assure you
This heart, this poor heart
Would only beat just for you

no one else but
Just you…
