Poems

She taught me to be the man She already believed me to be.

She’s music in a world still learning to speak. That’s why words aren’t enough to describe her.

We loved like the sun and the moon: Always missing each other.

I’ve given you all of my heart, Though it’s not quite all in one piece. If you promise to keep every part, Maybe then I’ll Rest In Peace.

I sent her flowers. Not for her benefit, but for theirs. I wanted the flowers to spend their last days with someone beautiful. It’s what they would’ve wanted too.

I never tried to keep you, I never stopped you from going. I knew you deserved better And now that you’re gone, maybe I should’ve been better.

Three important things: Those who stayed; Those who waited; Those who were there for you when you didn’t even have yourself.

I let my phone ring to silence. I am not the one you’re looking for. Although you have the right number, I am not the right one anymore.

I cannot properly speak if there is no one who would understand. Do I even exist if you do not acknowledge my existence? Am I even alive if I am not loved?

The fear of not loving you exceeded the fear of being hurt. The fear of doing nothing exceeded the fear of doing it badly. So I loved as best I could.
