i’d be a gardener for you;

you're a mortal garden and i'm attracted to you:

i'd point every light so you'd grow the best

(it could be blinding, just perhaps).

my hands would squeeze every ounce of a word out

(of poems i'll claim were written about you).

as my soul filters all the bad things out

(letting a few good ones trickle through).

and my heart will bury your seed inside me

(since that's where my feelings for you will be).

kisses will brush every petal you hold

(accepting all the weeds you bare).

singing songs to you will become the only thing i want to do

(here's to the candor and lyrics that get us through).

damn, eden don't even compare to you.

Heartache

Tell me why it ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me whybit feels so much like a mistake,

Falling in love with you.

I've been trying to move on,

But none of the memories are gone.

Been trying to keep going,

But the memories keep growing.

The pain of it is an avalanche,

Crashing down,

It hits the ground.

Tell me why it ain't nothing,

But a heartache.

Tell me why it feels so much like a mistake.

Falling in love with you.

Tell me why.

Tell me why,

Oh, tell me.

Tell me why.

i dont need to be yours

i dont want you to be mine

i only want us to stay like this

in bittersweet heartbeats

for the rest of our lives

or at least just for tonight

Original

Roses are red

Violets are blue

If your hearts beats for me

Why can’t mines beat for you

Lost love

Winter is so cold,

And I can feel that I am growing old.

Where are you, my fire?

Why aren’t you here?

Summer isn’t that hot,

When I think of you a lot.

Tell me, are you just hiding?

At least tell me, do you wear my ring?

I can hear the people say,

It is raining hard everyday

Maybe it is true,

But not more than when I cry, thinking of you.

Autumn has left the town with leaves everywhere;

I know you have disappeared, but in my heart, you are always there

I have now understood that our love is no more than a lie,

But why can’t I forget you, oh tell me why.

Everything has changed in spring,

Every tree, every plant, every sapling

But it is only me, not blossomed, although grown

Still seeking for a guy unknown.

A 3-lettered Word

Love is really a 3 letter word...

y e s

It signifies a belief in you

Or a sentiment  that binds like a thick, gooey glue.

It embraces the thought that with you I would climb any height up above

or even dive down below earth's deep surface for you.

It's  an acknowledgment  that with you I'd  soar without wings never fearing the fall;

For, the fall is my confidence that on you it is I can depend.

You would catch me and no harm would dare devastate me.

This 3 lettered word is a promise between two:

A vow for all time to have faith in us two.

It's a belief doubt can never creep in and divide

It reiterates a guided course without a map; for, it is with you I would travel and go anywhere.

To you I say yes

It's  you whom I'll trust

For you I would go

And stick unto you

To you I say yes

I'll  leave you no never

To stand beside you

And constant I'll  be

For the 3 lettered  word that to trust does it mean

Yes  is that word and I promise to love you now and ever!

I Don’t Understand

I understand 

"head over heels"

it means

"you keep me sane"

"you're my reason for living"

"without you,

I'd lose my head"

I understand

"madly in love"

it means

"I'm crazy over you"

"I'd do anything for you"

"I love you so much,

I'm going insane"

I don't understand

"falling in love"

Because with you,

I'm flying.
