My Beloved (Poem)




He has no idea the impact


A simple brush of his fingertips


Causes my unsure heart


The instability of each beat


When he speaks to me


In that amazingly sweet voice


Shivers run down my spine


With the slightest touch or glance


I am in love with him


Like I've never been in love before

The Journey (Poem)


Confusion fills the air

Around my buzzing mind

I, no doubt, love him

Yet I loved another

I fell harder for the one I'm with

But thoughts of the other linger

He said he'd always love me

I weeped at his declaration

I could not forgive the sorrow

He put my dear heart, so near, through

Leaving, not his choice, wasn't tragic

It was the way I was ignored

A piece of dust upon the windowsill

Of his lighthearted little life

He changed my way of living

As I had changed his own

He taught my heart to feel

Unlike it ever had before

Then, unknown to him, he crushed,

Destroyed, and shattered

What was left

Of what once beat for nothing

I regained the pieces

Now they lie within another

Uncertain of their fate

He could be their savior

Or their great demise

But he is unaware

Of this invisible burden

Placed upon his shoulders

Love (Poem)


Love,
One of the most
Confusing emotions
Yet, we strive to
Have it, we hurt
Those most devoted
While those we
Devote our every
Thought to ignore
Our every move.

Untitled (Poem)


Missing someone
Keeps you up
In the dead of night
It keeps you
From rational thought
Your suspicions
Are heightened
And if, like me,
You write
It gives you things,
As well as reasons,
To write your fears
