"I Love You."

~~"I love you."
is just three small words,
but when it is spoken
it holds a power
so beautiful.


So, When revealing
those three little, yet powerful words
to a heart so fragile
make sure that you mean it,
and show her the difference between
" I LOVE YOU." and "I love you."
because anyone can say " I love you."


So, remember that love is a feeling
that is shared between two,

Fuck You

I have done nothing to this world,
and to those surronding me
to be treated liek this, or to have such pain.
I've did ntohing, but cared, loved, and trusted.
I've did all that I possibly could,
but I guess that didn't matter: now did it?

Becuase people like you
still treat me like crap,
people still take advantage of me
when I have trusted them the most,
and people still don't give two...

A Fool

I am not a fool for loving you.
I am not a fool for trusting you.
I am not a fool for giving you
everything that I had.
A fool is not what I am
and a fool is who I shall not be.

It is what you've become
in this situation.

You are the fool for not loving me
the way I deserved to be loved.
You are the fool for not being
the man that you needed to be.
You are the fool for letting me g...

The Monster

She  was born from a parent
who left her at a young age
to be raised by a monster.

This monster created
such fear and depression
for this poor young girl.

The monster she feared
was there everyday waiting
for when she got home
or for when she woke.
The monster she didn't love
broken her down far too much
that even a thought of it
or the thought of being home
would make her panic.

Alone

Through these halls
I walk alone.
In the classrooms
where I sit with many others
I am still, yet alone.
In the Cafateria
the same thing there goes as well
I am there, yet I am not seen.

Alone is where I am
no matter where I go.
I am here, I am there,
I am everywhere.
And standing there
I try to get
your undivided attention
because I am tired
of being in solitary,

You were wrong to underestimate me.
You were wrong to not have any faith in myself and my success.
You were wrong to say the things you've said.
You were wrong to bring me down.

I cannot fully blame you

My darkness is never ending.
My darkness is your greatest fear.
My darkness is something you can't escape.

Although, you can try
to shut out my darkness

but you silly, poor thing
you've forgotten that I exist there too.

So, please understand
that there is no way out.
That there is no ounce of light

Three weeks with you.

Day one
you came to my work.
You asked me if I wanted to date you.
Of-course my answer was yes.
You smiled and then asked me
if I'd like to go to the movies.
So, after we work went
and it was our very first date.

Two days, six days,
then eighteen days went by.
Within those eighteen days
we've texted, hanged out,

Dear J.,

The first time that we meet

and since then we've became friends
though now I think that's changed; for me at least.

It was at that night

I'm slowly starting to fall for you

Barbie is fake, Beauty is real

What we are is real
and real is who were suppose to be
and If we were meant to be fake
our skin would be plastic like barbie,
but we are all humans.
Humans who make mistakes,
who has scars: seen or hidden,
and who has things that they wish
to change about themselves.

But, our Uniquely selves
are imperfections of beauty
because beauty isn't fake; beauty is real.

I've seen it, dreamed it, and thought of it, but never felt it.

I've seen it in movies. I've seen it in life. I see it all the time. I've seen all the ups and downs that comes with it. I've seen the way how it can make someone so sad or happy in a split of a second. I've seen the colors of it; bright and dark. I've seen it, dreamed it, and thought of it, but never felt it.......................... I am a loveless lost soul just waiting to be loved.

What I thought was true is now a lie.
What I thought was real is now a fake.

Everything that I've said

Never once was any of it a fake.
But, for you this was nothing but, a silly old game.

There once was a man that said
he"d loved all his children no matter what.
And if that's so and if we choose to believe it
then why can't we accept they way others love
if he can?

Because quite frankly
everyone deserve to be loved.
And when being loved or loving one
it shouldn't matter about the fact
that a guy likes another guy

As we continue to grow
we will learn many things
and one of them is that
every good thing
will come to an end.

Whether it's by a choice of mind,
by a decision made between two,
or by a lost loved one.

But, as these things come and go

because you'll never know just when it'll go
and a new will start;letting the cycle repeat.

The past is the past.
So, learn and build from it.

You can't learn from it.

Death of a loved one.

On a cold chilly night
I sat and watched
my one true love
slowly die.

Then falling from the sky
was the first snow fall
just right before
she took her last breath.
She then whispered
her last goodbye
and kissed me once more.

Not a second later
her body went cold,
no heart beat was heard,
and no more life inside her.

The angels have took her

Poetry

Poetry isn't just a pencil,
or pen, a piece of paper,
or words that flow just right.

Poetry is of many words,
many unspoken thoughts,
many unshowed feelings,
and is put together
to tell a story.

It tells a story
of a persons' struggles
and happiness.
And paints a picture
for the reader to see.

And each poem of mine
is written with such heart.

Chasing Love

You can't go chasing love
for it'll bring you long, lonely nights.
Because love isn't something you chase.
Love is something you find; sometimes unexpectedly.

Love takes time.
Love is not rushed,
but for some
love is at first sight.

And when you do find it
it's something that can't be expressed
even with all the words in the galaxy.

Do not go chasing love.
Let love find you.

Great Sadness, Little Happiness.

Happiness lies in everyone.
Everyone has it, everyone feels it.
But, for me, its a feeling
that I have not felt
for a long period of time
that I don't remember
how It feels to truly be happy.

Because every bit of happiness I come to feel
is destroyed so quickly and is replaced with sadness.

It's as if the world doesn't want me to be happy

but to be your best there has to be effort
because you can't and won't succeed if you don't try.
