Say It

Should I say it?
Should I wait?
My feelings flow quite easily,
but these questions are much harder.

God knows it's a sin to dare say it first,
but I can't help and almost say it
every time we say goodbye.
I know that's probably really bad,
but I don't care
Because with you....
no one compares.

A Poem by Justin Davis

Twisted ships are dragging drifting off your jagged dreams.
Crystal waves sweep muddied eyes in silent disbelief.
Whisper flames into my ear.

A Poem by Mikel Jabbary Mayers

Your Seed
Like a seed blowing across the wind
In many directions it may go;
Give it time, give it time
Let it sprout, let it sprout;

Step back, keep watch
Let it amaze you;
But don't go too far
Because it needs you;

Give it solid ground to stand upon
Water it with tears of happiness
Shine upon it with rays of love.

-Mikel Jabbary Mayers

I believe that this quote is very true, yet unrealistic in at least our current modern culture

That Feeling

You know that feeling?

That feeling.
It only happens once in a while,
and it happens when you meet someone special.
You feel complete.

It feels like rose petals are flying around everywhere,
every time a pleasant breeze blows.
In the ocean of emotions, I am floating on the top.
I feel so light I believe I can fly.
All I have to do is spread out my wings
and I'll be flying.
But I can't do it alone.
I need you there with me, because without you,
the rose petals all fall to the ground,
the pleasant breeze stops blowing,
and I start feeling heavier,
and drown to the bottom,
where only the most hated of the emotions stay.
Without you,
I will be left incomplete.

I Hate Love Poems

I hate love poems.
I love it when he writes them for me.
I love it when he recites them in my ear,
But i hate love poems.

Trust

Sheltered by my own little cave
Only me can keep me safe
Scratches which never heal
Were ripped open again

The Bitter Cold

Like ice my heart hardens with the cold
My heart is dead and black, tossed aside, ripped asunder
Like lightning you have struck me down
You have broken my hopes just as thunder
Empty is my soul, without you I am but desolate flesh
You left me out in the dark
Was this what you wanted from the start?
Your rejection of my love has left me hallow
When I hear your voice it’s now tears that follow
When I sleep I am alive for I dream of you
But when I am awake I am dead for you are with someone new
Your beauty haunts my every thought Why my friend?
We had such happiness, one that could never be bought
On my love! I am ruined for you are no longer my love
You were my most cherished star, more beautiful than the heavens above
I was yours; my heart to you it was sold
But you have left me broken, numb, and cold

That Breeze

It's not often that I write on a whim
that I blow off real work to ponder life,
yet I write so today, because today
I realized that if I hadn't gone up there,
up to the balcony
I would have never met him--a great chance to speak words
which I cannot speak every day.
What a lovely accent he has, how it reminds me
of places far away
Much like another boy I once knew--
and will know again.
Yes, I am certain of it,
because just now, a breeze came through the window.
A lovely breeze from far away
which ruffled my hair
and made me remember
that he's still there.

Only You...

Have you ever felt such inspiration
a mighty feeling only one can bring
As if never again it will get going
but missing it every moment of the day

Being not quite what you hoped for
makes me even want you more
Never again I'll open my arms
Not for you to leave me
Not for anyone to love me

Only you, only you

I can't explain the way I feel
but I know that this is surely real
I can explain what you do which touches
my soul, each time you move

Look into my eyes
And nothing more I'll ask for
It's enough to gaze and stare
just as long as you are there

Only you, only you

Lightening strikes my heart and kills it
every single time you smile
It's as if the beats pound deeper
Instead my conscience slowly dies

Stories you're telling without a word
your silence is what gets me stirred
How can this possibly be true
I love you, and only you

Only you, only you

I just know you love me too
And if you don't
well that's just fine
'cause in my dreams, you're already mine

I'll be sleeping for eternity
And when you finally wake up, you'll see
this is not what's meant to be
You'll know that you're the one for me

Only you, only you
