Just Look Into Those Eyes

The sudden rush of emotion
Blood surging to your cheeks
Its like nothing else in the world
When you’re feeling something so sweet
 
You wonder if it’s true
Maybe your mind is pulling tricks
But when you look up into those of eyes of his
you couldn’t live with just a trick
 
To know that you are someone
That someone wants to know
Is something that can’t be taken
Or ever be mistaken
 
For we dream of love
Fairytales feeding our cravings
Leaving our minds full of hopes
And realities that aren’t quite the dreams
 
When our dreams and hopes
Fall from their high pedestals
We begin to learn
Love is not for the ungrateful
 
When that feeling comes around
We try to leave all skepticisms behind
Instead of questioning it’s motive
Just look into those eyes.

For the Best

Image
 Tomorrow is the day
That I will want to go into hiding
To hide from the stares
Waiting for me to break.
 
Pushing back the thoughts
The feelings and memories
That the looks of despair
Bring back all too much.
 
I never do break
The attention would be unbearable
So I wait till the dark of night
When my tears won’t be interrupted.
 
You’d think it would get better
Be indifferent
But 18 years
Doesn’t change a thing.
 
So I will take the day with grace
Not hide, but embrace
I will tell story after story
Smile at every look and stare.
 
For the day isn’t’ my day
Not mine to wallow in self-pity
But to remember the best
Happy Father’s Day, Dad.

Secret Smile

With a twinkle in her eye
She set off
To live the life
That she didn’t deserve
But the one she wanted anyways
So she smiled her secret smile
while everyone stared in awe.

The Never-ending Mess

My mind’s a twirlin’
Tips and batters
I can see them dancing
Behind my eyes.
 
Not good nor bad
Mediocre racing
Of thoughts
That need some erasing.
 
Clutter
In every corner
Trying to push the nonsense
Thoughts aside.
 
The filing system
Exploded
Ideas, memories, and alike
Just laying out for all to see.
 
I need to regain some order
So my brain can think again
It took me a week to write a poem
And I have no clever way for it to end.
 
Please, oh, please, My Head, will you just clean up your mess?!

Free

You can’t break this
This pure happiness
It’s unmistakable.
 
Your tainted mind
Can’t touch mine
Just try and see
 
I don’t need you
That’s perfectly clear
To be happy
 
I just need to be Free.

A Writer’s Block Rhyme

Image
My brain is too tired to write
I keep trying to ignite
Some crazy insight
But I keep getting a red light
So for my delight
I am writing this out of spite.
