love is
fifty carats
of
sunshine
shining
in
your eyes.

Just when I think I'm fine,
You reach out,
Pull me in ,
and I remember what it was like when you were mine.
I want to go back,
but turning around has always proven pointless,
the ending is always the same.
There are books I would love to re-read,
but you are not one of them.

Bring to me infinity
From where it dwells in lore
Or return with empty, wounded hands
And speak of it no more.
For if we are eternity
As one, when brought together
Why then do our faulty lips
Find pause upon "forever?"
Follow me on Blogger & Instagram.

Eyebrows too thick
Nose is too big
Clothes just don't fit
I always feel sick

I want to be mad
They tell me i'm fat
I know i'm not glad
A perfect body is what I never had

I want to feel free
For that I can't be me
Can't they hear?, Can't they see?
Me content, It just can't be
we can




if we want to



If we want to we can all live together in love

Of course

If

Every time you see something

( or someone )

Beautiful

You want to have or possess

It
( or him or her )

///

There is no love possible

( there are many forms of abuse )

//

Respecting the other's sovereignty (?)

this and only this


IS LOVE

I’ll carve out
my heart
and set it
in clay

At least then
just maybe
it won’t get
in my way

To be in a crowd
and still feel alone
to be so lonely in your own presence no amount of people can change it
not knowing who you are
feeling comfort in scars
but not even that last long
so you end up running
running from the loneliness your own presence brings
into painful things
that's why you end up
b  r  e  a  k  i  n  g
to be alone
is the beginning
of the end

If I should die,
And you should live—
And time should gurgle on—
And morn should beam—
And noon should burn—
As it has usual done—
If Birds should build as early
And Bees as bustling go—
One might depart at option
From enterprise below!
’Tis sweet to know that stocks will stand
When we with Daisies lie—
That Commerce will continue—
And Trades as briskly fly—
It makes the parting tranquil
And keeps the soul serene—
That gentlemen so sprightly
Conduct the pleasing scene!

The rose is a rose,
And was always a rose.
But the theory now goes
That the apple’s a rose,
And the pear is, and so’s
The plum, I suppose.
The dear only knows
What will next prove a rose.
You, of course, are a rose—
But were always a rose.
