Boy Meets Girl
One glance is the warning to the coming attractions.
One kiss seals the deal, like in a game of poker.
Will each player play his or her cards correctly or
get played?
Falling in love, each moment more important than the next.
First, infatuation, past the getting-to-know-you phase.
I can now read your soul, with one glance before
my eyes temporarily close in a blink.
We then agree to promise each other
that we will stick together,
from now, being young and fresh,
to becoming old and expired.
Loving both the exterior and interior forevermore.

Desert Mirage
I don't know how to feel
today
my mind has gone
away
because my heart has broken
in two.
Here I stand
glass pieces of my heart
surround me
holding out my wrists
they cut me.
You stand above me
watch me bleed
a smirk plays
upon your face
as you tell me I've been replaced.
You never loved me
I was just a toy
watch me go
Girl leaves boy.
It's sad
I'm still not enough.
sandpaper truth,
jagged and rough.
I wanted so much
to be all you need
but you would rather
leave me to bleed.
I will rise
I will not die
I will live
to make you wish
I wasn't alive.

Dreaming
Dreaming
another world
taken from reality
fantasy and realism
imagination and curiosity
not knowing when
you will return to Earth
Or if this dream will come true...

A Sonnet 4 U
How do I love thee, let me count the ways.
I love thee from thy top of thy head to the bottom of thy feet.
I live because thee live.
I love thee to the depths of my soul and beyond.
I drown in thy eyes as if I cannot swim.
I love thy freely, and try to become better and better.
I love thy smile, it lights up my life like the sun.
I admire thee in all that thy do, no matter what it may be.
I love thy laugh, it gives my heart wings.
Every time I talk to thee, chills run down my spine.
I know thee cares for me as much as I care for thee.
Thy sympathizes for me when I am sad.
Thy makes me feel as light as a feather, floating on cloud nine.
Looking at thee, I am reminded how lucky I am to have thee by my side.
