As I listen to the melody of the piano

Tinkling at my heart strings

Feeding my envy of beauty

And simplicity

I close my eyes

Wishing to be lost

In it’s lullaby

Looking back on myself

Seeing the peace on my face

Appreciation in my smile

My skin still warm to the touch

Enjoy the music

Love me

It’s all I want

Love me

It’s all I need

I’m so happy

Not to be controlled

To know what I want

Not to fold

To look at things

Really as they are

To be proud of myself

Love every scar

For every one tells a story

I love you

That’s what I tell myself

That’s what you should do

Ignore the haters

Their voices have a mute

You have the remote

Negative does not compute

I feel good

When did I last say that?

Say it now

Make it a fact

Find my latest poetry book here

There was one thing you said to me

That stuck in my mind

I don’t remember your profile

But I remember your eyes

Upon kissing your lips you made me feel whole again

Just talking to me feeling as if you’re a friend

To feel good in myself to appreciate life once more

To feel wanted, not just nothing for ever more

To look into your eyes appreciating you there

To run my fingers through your long hair

To clasp your face with my fingers and thumb

To melt in your regard to go all numb

To glide my fingers over your palm

To trace your freckles feeling so calm

To count each time our lips touch for every kiss

To float as if in heaven in a cloud of bliss

To our final goodbye missing one thing

Holding you in my arms till the birds sing

I can’t be with you today

But I think about you all the time

I wish I could be with you

Recite words that rhyme

.

To look into your eyes

Lose myself within

Feel so warm inside

As you let me in

.

To whisper in your ear

Words that make you melt

I will give you all my love

Love you never felt

.

I just want to protect you

Hold you in my arms

To smell your golden hair

Forever in your charm

.

When I finally have you

I will never let you go

When you have perfect love

That is all you should know

Why is he better?

Better than me?

What has he got?

That makes you happy?

I can’t understand

Is it his youth?

Am I just getting

Too old I’m the tooth

Am I just ugly

So unappealing and plain

Do my jokes

Drive you insane?

We smile so much

But we never touch

Him smiling at you

Just boils my blood

But you’re not mine

I keep telling myself

As I put myself

Back on the shelf

To gather more dust

Onlookers fade away

I’m less attractive now

Less fun to play

Who likes damaged books?

Hard to always repair

Much better a new one

Much less despair

.

I know it’s not love

But I loved you

I loved you unconditionally

I loved every single thing about you

.

I loved your eyes

I loved your smile

I loved your spirit

I loved your soul

.

You had my heart the first moment our gazes met

You had my smile every morning we crossed paths

You had my spirit just being in your presence

You had my soul the first moment we talked

.

Now I wipe tears from my eyes

Now I love you but I don’t

Now I just want to sleep

Now I don’t want to be here anymore
