I Stole Your Name

You are the road

Less traveled

And the girl

Less loved

But that doesn't mean

You're worthless

Thoughts on Love #14

What we have isn't sweet, kind, or pure. It is a red war. I look at myself and I don't see the adoring eyes of a woman in love, instead I see the hardened stare of a soldier. This love is a battle; we will fight, claw, and tear ourselves apart in order to win. But what do we gain? One step forward, two steps back until we are miles apart. Now, I miss the fight- I miss the look in your eyes that would reassure me that you believed in the cause. I miss the expression that confirmed that you believed in me.

Let me stain your face

With kisses

And your heart with my love

So that my color

Will blend with yours

To become a painted sky

I'm curious why you don't use images in your posts?

It is my greatest hope that my writing is vivid enough that the mental picture it conjures would suffice (also I never thought about it)

Someday I'll stop waiting

For a love thats come and gone

I know that it wont get here

But I hope to God I'm wrong

I took a train to Amsterdam

To see something that's new

The lull of life had gotten to me

So I got away from you.

Vulnerable for You

There is more to me

Then you are willing to know

But if you decide to care

I guess i can show

You the parts of myself

That i hide

Beneath my skin

Deep down inside

I guess i am trying to say

I love you

My heart is torn

Between two homes

The one i know

And the one I've yet to find

Poems are

Words that can

Never find a place,

But can always find a home

In your heart

Thoughts of Love #1

I want to be the one that you think about before you fall asleep. I want to be the reason behind that smile, the one you can't wipe away. I want you to see me everywhere, and get butterflies when I'm around. I want you to miss me when I'm gone, and to hold me when I'm there. I want you to look at my face and see me.

There's so much that I want to say to you, but I'm too cowardly to. Above everything, more than I want the sun to shine, or the wind to blow, I want for you to love me.
