Never In My Life Before

Thoughts on Love #5

Love is a two way street.

The road is in the middle of nowhere, and a little bit bumpy. The speed limit is 60, but everyone goes 90. It has a few sharp turns, but everyone finds it more fun to nearly fly off the pavement. We drove, coming from opposite directions, and collided head on. That is the love I know from you: The bumpy, unpredictable, fast paced ride that takes me by surprise every time.

The words rattle

In my mind

Like chains

But somehow

They are

Freeing.

They sing a

Silent song

To me

Like whispers in

The autumn

And they are

More beautiful

Than the words

Could ever say

In the shakey moments

Between wake and sleep

I let loose the tears

That I didn’t let you see

They fall upon my pillow

And transform into rust

Reminding me that we

Are nothing more

Than dust

Thoughts on Love #16

This is neither what i expected, nor what I wanted. 

I thought love was about fighting for something, not with someone- then i realized how similar the two concepts were. I understand now that i was fighting with you in order to protect myself, when really all I needed was you. 

Thoughts on Love #10

And with a single word, our love flickered to life. It started small, like a burning ember in a furnace, but soon it grew into a roaring fire. Every time you say my name, it burns brighter. My heart is on fire with love for you- and I know that no power on this earth could extinguish it.

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

You fell in love

With my black cherry lips

Without the knowledge 

Of the pit within

Thoughts on Love #4

Your love gives me wings, but I am your rock. I know that if I fly too high, you will be alone on the ground. I deny the blissful sky, to stay with you on the earth in passionate contentment.

It's 2:31 AM, my dear

And i am still awake

Thinking of our reckless words

On another restless night

Seeing you in every place

In the shadows of my room;

Your face

Smiling at me

Chasing away sleep

Like a childish game,

Of wolves and sheep.

Thoughts on Beauty #1

There are many misconceptions regarding beauty. People think that it is only what is pleasing to the eye, however, they couldn't be more wrong.

Beauty is the good that leads us to truth, no matter what form it may take.
