You are a love that was planted
such a beautiful little creature
you are a love that was cut short

your wings were ready to fly
but life was not ready for you

-

to the person I once loved
I hope you find what you’re looking for
and that your life is filled with so much
sunshine that never sets.

to the person I once loved
I hope you soak yourself in the beautiful
things that life has to offer and you never
loose your childishness

to the person I once loved
I hope you find what you’re looking for

At dawn yesterday, while we chatted away,
talking about what should be and would be,
while locking eyes with each other.

This is what your eyes told me:
that you’ll love me everyday
no matter what happens
you’d stay by my side everyday
no matter what happens.

Loneliness is the color grey
sometimes, it’s colors are dull and faded
sometimes, it’s like an empty painting
waiting to be filled by an artist

But how do you describe it on days
when it has no color

It tastes like salty water
It smells like dirt
It sounds like silence
It looks like darkness
It feels like emptiness

Other times, it can be described as
when you have no love to light your way

-

Dear February,

I forgive you for yesterday.
Be kinder today and give me your finest
because I’m determined to make the best of you

This poem is about a boy I met
he was such a beautiful man
his eyes are like doves, close-set, gentle,
peaceful, and when he smiles
it’s like the warm sunset embracing your skin

It started with a chance encounter
then a dream, followed by a dejavu
did you know, after the dream I had
I fell in love with the miracle of him

He was the ocean and I was just a girl
who was drawn to the beauty of the waves,
yet deeply afraid to plunge into the depths.

This poem is about a boy I met
I should have written this poem sooner
forgive me for my words delayed
I'm a bit of a procrastinator

Years later,
when she is very quiet
and sits in silence
she can still hear his whispers
calling her LOLLIPOP

-

Just like the first kiss
moist and juicy
that was how you thought
the love will ripen

It felt like home, it was home

in the cold, hiding in the shadows
you are back on the streets
pecking on crumbs of love
looking for places to roost
till you find a better home

I hope you find the best home this time

-

“Do you love me?” she asked,
as she looked into his eyes, searching for grace
“What’s there not to love,”
he said with a smile, as he gazed at her

Your laughter, is a melody that dances on the breeze,
in the garden of your soul, I find ease
the way your eyes sparkle, stars in the night
in your embrace, everything feels right

So, yes, I love you, beyond what words can express
a love that is boundless, a sweet caress
on every heartbeat, in every breathe.

This is the story of a woman becoming
wearing chaos like gold
her fears decorates her like
beautiful flowers
the women in her are tired
but like the fearless water
she moves, regardless
