The Person in the Mirror

To the person I see in the mirror everyday, I apologize for all the hardships I put you through, for being so rude and so cruel to you, for lying to you again and again, for telling you that you’re not beautiful, too plain. I apologize for shutting you out, for torturing you no doubt,…

Love in my Soul

Music in my veins, memories in my mind, and you in my heart. How can I ever not be happy when I’m filled with such beautiful things? Love in my soul, patience in my thoughts, and kindness in my actions. How can I ever not be content with what I’m trying to be more like?…

Fall asleep beside me

Lie down beside me and tell me about your day, tell me about that guy who was a jerk to you, tell me how the weather today was too hot, tell me about the times when you missed me. Stay awake beside me and take my hand in yours, take me in your arms, take…

Enchanted

I saw you first when you opened the gate for me, just how a prince does in fairy tales, you were dressed in dark blue jeans, and blue tees of a shade even darker than your jeans’. “I knew you were trouble when you walked in,” echoed in my mind, and I knew that you’re…

To be a living paradox

To be truly alive and breathing, to be living and loving, to be sweet and kind, to be innocent and wild, that’s how I aspire to be for the rest of my life. To be with the person I want to be with, to be with the people I love to be with, to be…

My little bear with tiny paws

I remember how ecstatic I was when I first heard that you were born. I kept counting days off the calendar, waiting for the day I could finally meet you. You were so small when I first saw you, so tiny and cozy, sleeping with your little eyes closed, without a worry in the world….

My Safe Zone

I’ve been waiting for a long time for you to come back to me, I’ve been thinking a lot about where it all went wrong. You had my heart ever since I first saw you when we were 12, until you won it all over overwhelmingly and completely. You were always there when I used…

I’ve heard about your love

Never met you two, don’t even know you, but I have heard about you, about your love. The kind of love that you two have is the kind that makes me believe in forever, makes me want to try and give love a chance. The kind of patience that you two have is the kind…

Didn’t plan to fall so hard

As hard as it may seem to you, as hard as it may be for me to accept this, but I don’t plan everything. I didn’t plan to fall for you so hard, didn’t plan to want you as much as I do now, didn’t plan to make you so necessary for me. I had…

You didn’t let go of me

You kept telling me to go back, that I shouldn’t be out here, in this wilderness, that it wasn’t safe. And yet, contradictory to your words, you didn’t let go of my hand, you didn’t let go of me. You held onto me as if I was the very gravity that pulled you to the…
