I have fallen for you
There is something great,
Something extraordinarily different
That draws my thoughts to you
And I may never know
Exactly what that is
But what I do know is
I've always believed
That my heart belongs
Wherever my mind goes
When it begins to wander
And that can only be you
For you are queen
Of the kingdom of my heart

Your happiness is what I desire.
On this night I ask one thing of you
Understand, my dear, I love you

DreamThere he stands,Dream6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The man simply known as Dream.
He's different now, fallen from grace,
And risen back up to it.
He was a joyous man, but he was beaten,
Torn and scarred, starved and tormented.
How did he get past it all they question me.
I know the answer, only because I asked him myself.
This is what he said to me,
"You can only be broken so much,
Eventually they stop trying,
Then you take every scar,
Every fracture and shattered piece,
And turn them into strengths and advantages.
Since they can't hurt you anymore,
You have nothing left to fear."
He turned his tortured soul into flawlessness.
That is who he is now, a hap

Beautiful WorldI look into a mirrorBeautiful World8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
And I can almost visualize it
The darkness inside me
Breaking the surface of my skin
Covering everything around me
Drowning my room in emptiness
Then I turn around
Walk to the window and look outside
I see everything I can never be
I see the light, I see happiness
Belonging and beauty
When I look upon all that is in this world
I know I am not a part of it
I'm an outsider looking in
Desiring all of it
But when I step toward it
It all just moves twice as far
So I stop trying to go to it
As to not further myself from it even more

Do They Even Know? (Beautiful World Part II)After years and yearsDo They Even Know? (Beautiful World Part II)7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Of sitting in sorrow,
Watching the Beautiful World
Outside my window,
Feeling pain of separation
The great divide between me and them
It felt as though my heart were made of wood
And termites were slowly eating away,
Devouring it
But they would never finish
Because somehow,
There was always more to consume.
I just wanted to die,
To escape torment
But for some cruel reason,
I was never given that option.
Now I just lie on the floor
The carapace of a person
Existing, but not really alive
All days blur together
I'm not even sure, exactly
How long I've been here
Scrunched up in a ball
With all my ho

Dear MoonNothing is worseDear Moon8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Than when you are new
The night is so vapid
Without that delicate light
Being cast upon us
But it's not so bad
At least, not anymore
For now i have someone
That reminds me of your allure
When you are absent from the sky
I long for your return
So maybe you'll return the favor
And remind me of her

Her soul that is
Set ablaze by him,
Her manipulative boyfriend
He knows just what to say
To lure her right back
Into his arms
Where he can crush her
Once again
But for now
He bides his time
While getting a sick pleasure
From watching her burn
In the inferno he ignited

Perspective is the KeyDark RomanticPerspective is the Key7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Castle of sadness
Immense in its form
Longs for the yearning
Desperate of old.
Give me the sorrow,
Give me the world.
Romantic
Are you my savior?
It's not what it seems
With each breathing moment
and each heaving mean,
The world brings tomorrow
with beautiful seams.
Naturalist
A dead generation;
is what we all hold.
But each law will pass,
while each lie is told.
So wait for tomorrow
and its coming remorse.

MoonlightWhen I look at the moonMoonlight9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I think of beauty
And the last few nights
While I've watched it's light
Reflect off the rippling water
I've thought of you
I'm unsure of what this means
Other than I am close
Close to finding you
But even when I do
You will not know
For I can't bring myself to tell you
And maybe this means
We're not meant to be
Because most certainly
You will never be
The one looking for me

VacancyLife has kept goingVacancy10 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Without your presence in it
On the outside
It all seems the same
But inside me
There is a vacancy
A room meant just for you
Letting my thoughts wander
They travel past your room
And I can only think
A single phrase
Tu me manques
I miss you

I WonderWill I ever tell you, I wonder,I Wonder9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
How you make me feel?
It's doubtful at best
For I don't even know
Who you are
I may have clues
But do I really want to know?
Yes, of course I do
Just the thought of you
Passing through my mind
Fills my heart with joy
I want to dance with you
Sing with you
Let you in my heart
And hope you want the same
But I'm not sure
If I have the courage
To tell you
Or even figure out who you are

Tell you not to be discouraged
Everything will work out

Release MeI've tried for so long nowRelease Me1 day ago in Free Verse More Like This
To build myself back up
What is it all for though?
When I can’t seem to get over
The things I've done in the past…
Why can I not let this go?
Must I torture myself so?
Just let it end, that’s all I want
How long must I continue like this
Before I have made up for my past?
Just let today be the day
The day I let it all go
And accept with grace
All that has been given to me
All that I feel I don’t deserve
Let today be the day I embrace it….
Please………just let it happen….

Thank You, Dear FriendsWhy am I still hereThank You, Dear Friends8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Standing strong
When I should be down
On the ground
Curled up in a ball
Feeling nothing but pain
Why are they still here
All of my friends
Surrounding me each day
Did I do something
To deserve to have them
I don't think so
But I am glad they are here
For without them
I would most certainly be broken
Thank you dear friends
For not turning your backs on me
Even when I am in my darkest hour

Fervid AwakeningThere's a fire beneath my feet,Fervid Awakening7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
but not the kind that burns
mountains and ruins girls
made of papier-mâchéno,
these are the sparks that
drive the insane to dance in
the rain; the flames that
gave birth to a million voices
itching to be heard, too.
It's spreading, settling, somewhere deep
beneath my sternum, like an anticipatory
story, waiting to be told, giving
my heart the ardor to beat.

No one ever says happiness
is like a butterfly: beautiful,
flighty, and fleeting.
If you let it slip through your
fingersyou are left
alone, palms full of feathery dust
which soon fades and leads to the scary

Before the light is devoured by the night,
I have to get away.
I look behind me.
He's trying to kill me
I have to get away,
This is judgment day.
Is he a vampire or a werewolf?
A ghost looking for a host?
Even my breath escapes from me.
I can't run anymore it seems.
I feel I need caffeine,
Hopefully my mind will
Race away from the scene.
But it seems I've been running from my shadow.
A movie is a movie.

Smile Today, Darling!This mirror does not show me.Smile Today, Darling!9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
All I see is a girl, pale as the moonlight,
The ghost of a heart once pure white.
But when I lift my hand, she lifts hers too.
Who is this girl? She's blurred into ash hues.
There's something, though, that screams out loud:
A sparkle in her eye proclaims, "I AM PROUD."
A twitch at her lips, a fourth of a smile
Surfaces from a decade's exile.
A burst of a rainbow, a ray of sunshine,
'I'M GOING TO LIVE," is today's headline.
So now, I finally see me.

Desire & DenialAnger has found its way into me again.Desire & Denial7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The thoughts twist in a mess of rage, agony, and sorrow.
Images blur in my mind and get mixed with a reality that doesn't exist.
The thoughts move with the music I listen to.
I was just listening to them but, they skip back and forth on one specific section;
a broken record.
My hands shake with anxiety as my hunger for a taste that I can't give increases when the moon shines upon my insanity.
The pain in my chest appears when hearing your voice, but is killed by the spike of reality pierces through.
All sound goes into a sound that doesn't reach my ears.
Hot tears feel like molten metal as they

I must sign a testament that once belonged to my heart, disheveled
And lots of dreary situations had their marks on me.
And yet the movie goes on and on!
And on and on!
And the hopes were high
(She smiled and then succumbed.)
I touched and betrayed an atom of happiness
After that I felt five thousand and eighty two stars colliding above me.
Anything could have gone better during those darkened nights.
But that power was just too much for me to hold near memories and love.
I couldn't hold it near. I spit out quickly and covered my eyes.
My bleeding canvas of the battered boy
