* small collection of 2-stanza poems*


-i-

Short hair caught in the wind

Like black ink marking the blue sky

I swear, the whole world dimmed

When I looked into her eyes


Cupid's arrow has struck me

From her cherry tainted cupid's bow

I'm just a boat and she's the sea

And I'll lose myself in it if she lets me


-ii-

You have a heart of stone

You don't really care

I tell myself when I'm alone

Because life is never fair


It feels like too much, just existing

Feels like feeling is so exhausting

Constant ups and downs, I hate it

A heart of stone would be perfect


-iii-

If you keep healing other souls

Who will help keep yours whole?

There's no use in being good and true

If they never give you what is due


The world has it's own way of working

But sometimes you have to do the departing

Your life is always in your own hands

And sometimes you have to take a firm stand
