I Love You

Don’t cry my love

I promise you this

I’ll always be there

I’ll always hold you when life knocks you down


Don’t cry my love

I’m right here

I’m not going anywhere


Don’t cry my love

Can’t you see how much I love you?...

Lucky Charms

The rainbows In the bowl have faded along with the childhood dreams that are forever unfulfilled

The charms that are supposed to be lucky have all turned grey into the cloudy river of disappointment


All of the colors bleed into each other

Until there Is yet just a ghost of what they used to be

And they all disappear into the puddle of hopelessness


The heart was the last to lose its color

Help! Advice heavily needed!!

I’m trying to write something for my friend on her birthday but I’m struggling.

Usually I just write in free verse but I really want to do a rhyming one for this. Personally I think when I try to rhyme it comes off as childish and emotionless. So if you all have any advice or any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it!


Edit: thank you all for giving your input...

Whispers Of Nature

Whispering softly

I hear the wind in my ear

Hold on

It says

Keep going

It says



Whispering softly

I see the sun bend down to me

**There’s more out there **

It says

**There are endless possibilities **

It says



Whispering softly

The stars stare back at me with a look I can’t ignore

**There is beauty out there **

It says

**One day you’ll see it for yourself **

It says



Whispering so...

The Scars On Our Hearts

In a room full of

People with hundreds of stories of their own

Fake smiles

Secrets nobody else knows about Laughter echoing off the walls


In a State full of

Lifelong memories

Criticism

Fear of walking down the street

Family vacations


In a Country full of

National parks

Bullets in childhood backpacks

Politics

New beginnings


In a world full of

Fairytale Love

Violence

Silent screams...

Ice Cream

Ice cream

We once took turns scooping the rock hard sweetness

Every night fighting over who would get the honors


Ice cream

What once tasted like

Comfort

Happiness

Home


Ice cream

What now tastes like

Bitterness

Numbness

Suffocation


Ice cream

What brought us together

Now only makes me fall apart...

Is It Possible If I’m…

…Too sensitive?


I get sad when there are animals in the road

And when birds can’t fly



I’m too sensitive


I cry over sunsets

And while looking at the night sky



I’m too sensitive


I get overjoyed when seeing a bumblebee

Or a pretty dragonfly



I’m too sensitive


I get overwhelmed with nature

And how our souls always wander too high



Maybe I’m too sensitive

Or maybe I’m just the right...

Lost Boy

All that glitters is not gold

With the shimmering in my mind

The desire in my blood


With what once felt like freedom

Now feels like a prison I can’t escape from


It’s been years since I’ve seen the Dust in the palms of my hands

But I still feel the jump of flying the moment I close my eyes


It’s an addiction I’ll never grow out of

A fall I’ll never fly away from

A life I’ll never get ba...

Missing You

I’ll look at pictures of you and your bright blue eyes until they burn into mine through the late hours of the night

I’ll listen to your favorite songs until I hear your voice in the ringing of my ears

And swim in a river of tears from the memories that are etched into my mind


For the slight chance

That it will tattoo into my brain deep enough for me to dream

Of you

And only you...

It’s Showtime!

My homemade mask is on

Full of bright smiles

Happy eyes

And rosy cheeks


I’m about to step out of my car which means

Showtime is now here


I’ve gotten pretty good with my acting

I convince people I’m happy

And that I love the person that I am


I act confident

Put together

Like I have everything figured out


Ok

Here we go

One foot in front of the other


I see people in the distance
