Falling in love,
I've fallen in love
With your eyes and your smile,
Your cries will always be worth while
To cheer you up and hear your laugh
Darling, if only you knew the half
My heart is warm, it beats out of my chest
For you I'd most definitely give my best
Not something everyone receives,
But for you, I perceive
The gift of love and care,
A soft gentle caress touch with a beautiful stare
Into your eyes and your soul,
Into your eyes and mine, what used to be a black hole
My soul;
Lost within the depths of dark,
Until your beautiful eyes gave it a spark
I think about you and the future, I see what may become
Hoping for, one day, together and forever we succumb
Under the weight of pressure for waiting now,
So someday it could work someway and somehow
Perhaps, if I told you
If I hold you
Everything would be okay,
If you believed me, I'd stay
All I want for you is to give everything
For you to be my everything
I'll have you know, as a warning, I am a mess
I'm sure you wouldn't expect anything less
Though I am unstable and sad,
Your smile gives me a sensation I've never had
Scared to death, scared fearless
Open your eyes, open your ears and hear this
Terrified of what I've been through before,
Terrified of the feelings from war
Love in general,
And the pain that comes with
They say that is only a myth
But love is true, and pain follows
It has to come together, it has to hollow
Pain is what helps love grow,
Pain is what makes true love know
I'm okay with being hurt,
Okay with being in pain
As long as I know it's worth,
As long as I know it's not the same
As I am scared to let you in
If I don't, I will never win
So even though I'm a mess,
Even though I'm in pain
I'm scared of it all the same
Even though I'm scared
Each and every day
I find myself, for a moment there
Your beautiful smile, I stare
Falling more and more and mkre in love
Catching myself being happier with you,
No less,
And no more of.

PoetryTW: Dark and graphic emotions/thoughts. I am updating this collection of poetry as I have kind of left it alone for a long time. I started this in 2017, and while I have written many poems over the years, I have also stopped writing for a long time...
