Smiles get wider
                       Streams increase
hair gets lighter

             Winds get  warmer
Water laps happily                    
             Sun waltzes me along

Just a little more
              Beethoven
tastes              
       a little
sweeter          
                      Heartbeats
faster

               I get a little happier
Red cherry blooms        
          Blued jays

                  Reflected memories
Glinting and Bubbly              
                Off the water  

Fawned leaves
                     Frolicking in wind
Titillatingly happy again

Once upon a time
I built a tower in the sky
Because I wanted to be closer to you

I crafted your glass
With careful hands
And heated  breath

I forget your stone
With broken bone
But no matter how hard I tried

My tower in the sky
Would never be close enough
My fingertips

Could never graze your pale facade
Instead
I sat in my tower
Hour
By
Hour

Content to watch
You set and rise
My lovely pale moon

Forever out of my reach

Happiness
Lately it's been tasting like a starfish
Dipped in starfruit

Coating my tongue like fresh strawberries
Chocolate follows after
Spearmint

Because things have been so busy
The main avenue of fifth street in new york
Caramel for slow days

And

Bits of sunshine when you're nearby
But I've managed to do without
The strong flavor of black tea

With a pinch of chai
And a favored glimmer of lemon
I haven't been around much

I'm sorry for that things have been
Hectic to say the least
An enjoyable

Fast paced briskness
But
I think I'm back now for a while at least

Lift that smile
Brighten those eyes

Cheery notes play throughout the skies
Hey its been a while. How ya doing?

Roses
Sugary morsels
Chocolates
Teddys

How original
And romantic
I sigh
For the fourth time

I think
That I would much rather
Spend my valentine's day
Counting the flecks
Of grey in their eyes

How many times I've heard this laugh
I don't have a disdain for this love
That I've acquired
How many unfinished letters

Poems
Hearts

That they'll receive
Glass droplets
Containing every sweet moment
Cloves

For the moments that haven't been so sweet
Mint for keeping cool
Most of the times
And talking things out

Sage for the fights that we've come back from
A greater sense of understanding towards each  other
Lavender laze
For sleepy mornings

Hazy nights
For one's delight

I am going to kiss the moon tonight
Happy Valentines day ya'll! Wrap before you tap! (It's also national ****** day)

One day
He Will stop loving me
The looks of love
Will turn to annoyance
My laugh will cause a grimace

My presence echoing
Off the dismal decayed corridors
I have not prepared
The egg in my chest for this

I've  never known how to

I've tried

But it's been like a lighting bug
That flew too far out of my reach
But at least it still has a light
I haven't broken the cement around the habits we've made

Tonight I've wondered if I should
Fingers
Crooking
With holding a last text
To a completely different person

Unsteady heart beats
I thought
For a second
That I had lost that familiar friend

Pallid

Gray

A knowing smile

Here I lay
Lay me down to sleep

We stay awhile
Staring at each other
Nerve endings tingling
Through our brushed finger tips

A small smile
I haven't forgotten
This feeling after all
It hasn't forgotten

A small bloom
Forms on  lips
As quick as it appeared
It's gone with another tear
Meh
