Truth?"Truth?"

Truth has become reality's biggest nightmare
Which always becomes buried by those in despair
For is it more noble to bite one's tongue until it turns red
Or let truth accumulate until his heart pumps out dread?
My intuition has led me to the truth many times before
Of which I have realized truth is not the cure
But what is the truth when every character has a story
Upon which each owner desires to claim truth's glory?
For it is comforting for those to retreat from their fears
Or deny truth exists and mask it with cheers
What ignorant mortals for them I take sorrow
For truth will target and haunt them tomorrow
As for myse

You're worth waiting forLet’s take it slow, if you want us to grow
Our love is our gentle abode, and I just want you to know
That my patience is unknown, but for you, I will hold
I’ll just have to flow, and always remain with hope

Because much time has already passed
And a lot has happened, so sudden and fast
But with each moment, we get closer and forget the past
With each mistake, we start growing, with each, we understand

But now that patience is a big part of my life
I hope that one day, you'll also be mine
It could take a while, it could also be soon
But none of that really matters, because I truly belong to you

Love LetterYou are re-creating the word love for me
I have never felt anything in my heart so deep
I'm so in love that I'll never be the same
I just want to be with you every single day

You have touched my heart in many different ways
And now from my heart you'll never go away
I feel so warm every time you're here,
I feel so cold whenever you disappear

Though it feels like you are already mine
Who knows if that's real, who know if it's a lie?
I just think about you every single time
Every time I write, and when I close my eyes

But I'm just waiting for that special day
For when you finally say, yes

Please, don't give up.You’re not alone, even if you feel such sorrow
Please try to calm your mind and forget about tomorrow
I know that life can hurt, but from my happiness you can borrow
Please don't cry anymore, I will help you with the troublesome morrow

Even if the bad seem to be everywhere you go
Just keep in mind that you have to stay away from what’s below
And I know that you’ll learn from these bad experiences
So then you can help those who are inexperienced

Please don’t be sad, everyone has a reason for his or her existence
You can’t ever give up, push through and have resistance
The worst thing you could do is to l

If I kiss youWhat if I kiss you?
What if I pull you close?
And whisper you the truth
Will you say “I love you”?

Because you shine light into this dark room
I wish I could turn the whole world to slow-mo
Just so I could see this beautiful flower bloom
Maybe then you’d see how much you mean to me

I go on my days with my heartfelt thoughts
Warmth is what you’ve brought into my feather heart
And all of this just feels like the start
I know that one day, we will never be set apart

Distant Memories Of A Love Done Gone .They say it's difficult to love someone
When you can't even love yourself.
But I loved you nonetheless,
The problem was I didn't know when to stop.

You kept sending me mixed signs
Making me dizzy until I
Couldn't know
Left right
Much less right
From wrong.

When our world started crumbling down and
T e a r i n g at the seams
It was so easy for you to let it fall apart.
But I, knowing no other kind of love,
desperately clung to the remaining bits,
Trying to put them back together.

Yet the pieces changed too much, too quickly,
They kept growing and
growing a p a r t,
until your world was only yours
and mine a hollow ech

I Comfort MyselfWith a warm drink, whispering secrets to my own reflection.

The struggles that plague me, though none may know,

Are only for the ears of my quiet mirror, who smiles

Softly, warmly and with care. He tells me, I'm fine

I've done well for now and soon I may finally rest.

Though the silence continues to press upon me,

Weighing upon my soul like an iron crate.

Still I find comfort in whispering secrets,

If only to my own reflection - holding a warm drink...

A Poem for a ThiefThe moon hangs high in the air
The sour-faced guards do their duty
I stand high planning to take form their lair
I will make off with that high valued beauty

Silent as a cat I make my way through
I am nothing but a bump in the night
Wave a light and see nothing you fool

Security please, I cross every line
Taking yours, what now is mine

Dreams Are...Dreams are made of bloody pearls
From dark waters,
Where the mermaids sing
Songs of killing.

Their voices, sweet and harsh,
Are pure insanity.
It's desire for blood,
It's a wish for a new day.

Dreams are made of glass.
A single touch, and they may break.

Dreams are roses.
Red and white, the innocence of a drop of rain, or a tear...

Dreams are stars!
They shine upon us!
And, in our human craziness,
We can't help but want them...

There is no place for me.There is no place for my ideals or me,
There is no place for justice or mercy.
There is no place for true love anymore,
It's a sad truth, it saddens me at the core.

There is no place for me in this world,
Where the cries of the needy must go unheard.
I'm cast out for my ideals, my gentleman's code,
Well, I was born like this, a man in hero mode.

There is no place for a hero in this world,
The knight in shining armour must go unheard.
There is no such thing as a Fairy Tale,
I am not Prince Charming, just another sail.

On a boat afloat on a sea of sadness,
The winds of mourning passing through me.
There is nowhere in this world fo

I'm afraid of losing you.I don’t know if you feel it too, the feeling of wanting to break loose
And just screaming “I love you” but I’m scared that we might lose
Because just of our age, or the time, or any person that doesn’t want you to be mine
But I know that if this goes wrong I’d be the one who'd cause the crime

I’m a bit afraid; one false move would make everything go away
And I’m always left wondering if what I’m doing is okay
I just want everything to be alright between you and me
Or is there something that I cannot see?

My head is rambling with questions that fear is inventing
Maybe is not fear, maybe

*One Red Rose*Christmas snow so gently falls
World pure and silently white
Red rose with tenacity
Unfurled petals overnight.

Christmas gift of one red rose
Heaven's present this I know
Blossom glitters in cold glory
Frozen red in winter's snow.

Restless Ghosts and Sleeping LanternsHush my child, don't you fear
The monster's arms will comfort, dear
Lie inside the warm embrace
And dry the tears that track your face

Listen closely to the breeze
That whispers words between the trees
In the dark they'll gently comb
And call you swiftly, safely, home

Smile, darling, shut your eyes
And hear the witches' happy cries
Feel the kindness of their light
The fire licks the coming night

When you're shivering to the bone
Remember, sweet, you're not alone
In the cracks that cross the ground
The beast will keep you safe and sound

Shh my love, no need to weep
I'll sing to you until you sleep
Nothing's scary as it seems

Because You Make Me HappyI write when I am happy
I write when I am sad
I write when I am angry
I write when I am glad
I write because I feel
And tonight I write for you
For you make me happier
Than any who have come before

Falling for AutumnI haven't seen you in months
but you're still just as beautiful as last time
your long hair flowing gently in the breeze
red, orange, and brown mixed to make a silky curtain of colors

It's been too long since I could sit and relax with you
hot apple cider flowing warmly down my throat
keeping away the slight chill you sometimes bring along

Your delicious earthy smell almost overwhelms my senses
with a calmness no one else can give me
I've missed your soft touch against my cheek
gentle hands pushing back my hair

The sound of your voice is a flurry of air
through leaves that have yet to fall
the crunch under foot while we walk hand

She left for heavenWe lost an amazing woman this week
A beautiful angel that was taken back to heaven
And from our eyes we shed our tears, for a woman we hold dear
That we will never forget, because in our heart she’ll always stay

A great woman who is proud of her son
That from heaven she yells “That’s my one”
The one she will always watch over and protect from the dark
Because she is sweet, kind, and always full of love

So please do not fear the obstacles that you’ll take
You have people who care for you and your mothers embrace
She will hold you tight and from heaven she’ll say

Lend me a kiss

Lend me your sweet lips
Give me a soft kiss
Stay with me till the end
Let's stop playing pretend

Don't let my heart break
Let's learn from our mistakes
I'll let your love embrace
Mend me with your lovely grace

They never leave my mind
Your cherry colored lips
The roses that I have picked
And the sweetness that one day I'll kiss
