Time stands still when i'm next to her, I get the stupidest grin when I have a text from her.
My heart skips a beat, i'm weak on my feet.
It's all because of her.
And I love it.

For herWords can not and will not pay any justice to how amazing you are. The way the room lights up when you smile, It's a lightning strike at night, The moon in the pitch black. You know how to bring light to the darkest of days and you never fail to do just that. Girl, you are a super-nova and you make friendship burn just as bright.For her1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This

Just The Way You AreDo you ever feel that you stand out:Just The Way You Are2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
like a white feather would on a crow?
Do you ever feel that you're different:
a weed in a flowerbed struggling to grow?
Do you ever feel that you're moving in the wrong direction?
Fighting against the tide, battling the flow.
Do you ever feel left out:
a bird left behind because it's flying much too slow?
Have you ever felt a little useless:
a light bulb that's losing all its glow?
Fading into blackness, alone,
Not knowing where to go.
If you ever feel any of these things,
and are sad, lonely, feeling different and low,
If you ever feel that you don't belong
I just want you to know...

You take one look at me
And call me fat
And ugly.
You look down
On someone
Just because
They're gay.
You beat up
The really smart
Kids in your class
And then demand them
To finish your homework
When you should've finished it
Yesterday.
You see a kid
With autism
And call them a retard
And put them down,
Even though they're
People too.
You look at yourself in the mirror,
Or look at your muscles,
Not caring that you're
Living a life of vanity
And selfishness.
The sad thing is,
You don't realize
That maybe the
Smart kids
Who do your homework
Everyday
Will become your boss.
Maybe the gay kid

HappinessOh how dear loveHappiness1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Do I love to stand by your side
To be happy in your company
Despite all the woes of the day
Tell me, do I grant you the same
Happiness?
Do I make you forget
The horrors the pains and the woes?
My happiness with you is unfathomable
And I wish to share it with you
The word happiness had no definition for me
Because what I feel defined as "happiness"
Cannot possibly define what I feel.

The SkullWe weren't immediately in love. In fact he'd saved my life, which had brought us together, and kept me around him through thick and thin, but he was what drew me in and held me there permanently, a place I could never leave. And a place I would never want to leave. But when more horrible events triggered my life fell down a spiral of change that I would never be able to climb up from.The Skull1 year ago in Short Stories More Like This

Tomorrow Morning...This morning I could only recall your face.Tomorrow Morning...1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
But then I remembered something else...
A hideaway in a library,
A secret meeting at a carnival,
A kiss in a park,
A garden in the back yard.
Then more memories...
Dancing in a field of snow,
Cooking each other dinner,
Painting each other pictures,
Claiming the stars as our own.
Then, the pain.
You left me without giving any warning. I know you're not coming back, and I have finally come to terms with that. Granted, they aren't good terms.
I'm doing better now, and I've found other things to concentrate on...
But tomorrow morning it will start all over again.
Tomorrow morning...

Will you see how

Because without you
