meant to be, but couldn't stay
We were right— God, we were right for each other. Same dreams, same broken pieces that fit like a puzzle no one believed in but us. You knew how to calm my storms. I knew how to catch your silence. We built a fire that could’ve lasted forever— if forever wasn’t so damn fragile. But love isn’t always enough. Not when timing cuts like glass. Not...

Premium Member I only wish she hadn’t cried the tears meant for me while she burned under a merciless sun
I only wish she hadn’t cried the tears meant for me while she burned under a merciless sun, hadn’t been the sheltering forest while her own bark turned to ash, hadn’t stood like an unmoving mountain to lift me on her shoulders toward the blue skies, hadn’t taken upon herself the dark clouds meant to cover me like...

What Marriage Meant For
What is the meaning of marriage Marriage is about two people Who are in love irrespective of health, Of wealth will not abandon each other But mutually support each other Irregardless of any circumstances Will not back out the marital promise Whether pain or gain will face head on Facing any storm in life with courage Never give up but in control willfully The...

What If Forever Was Never Meant to Be
What if forever was never meant to be? Just a story we told ourselves to sleep at night, A myth we wrapped around broken promises So they wouldn’t hurt as much in the morning. I loved you like a secret — One I couldn't tell myself out loud. You were my friend, But I whispered prayers hoping you’d look at me With the...

Premium Member How We Are Meant To Learn From Each Other
Our memories will be the roots In our strong yet delicate foundation. Our talks will be our parachutes As we slowly fall into infatuation. Our fall outs will be rationalized away As we become each other's voices of reason. Our voices will soothe us without sway In our soft-spoken tones, without confusion. Our individual strengths will shine through Each and every time we speak...

ONLY MEANT FOR TWO
Verse 1 I’ll strum you a tune in the glow of the moon, Sing a melody made for a heart like you. Soft-spoken stories that dance through the air, Taking you places like we haven’t a care. We’ll daydream in colors that don’t have a name, Like jasmine and sunsets and warm summer rain. Wrap me in you, let the stars realign, Just...

Was she meant to be broken?
As far as ethereal creatures are concerned, she fell somewhere in between a wood nymph— fragile and belligerent— and a centaur— untamable and resilient she is a living, breathing juxtaposition; far from flawless, yet infinitely beyond perfect. She was flawed, but as an ornate kintsugi vase cracked to pieces and sutured back together with gold Like the...

The Pain of Enticing Ice
Th'pain of ice is th'lacquer o'stife To th'begg'd bane, stilled, thawed Caught'n satin fame, dragg'd towards Th'Blood of a sadden'd kiss, "To this" "To what o'this" Seen 'nstead of 'nfringed love The blade, call'd catharsis a dove, "To this" "To what o'love" Fraught, unthought shove Fame fall'n still, dripp'd 'n drench'd f'love Bade blade ripp'd the blanch'd flesh O'th'pure goers' eternal rest Lay hereafter, for'ver after, Goeth detestable...

Not Quite What I Meant
My favorite sheets are cotton; One set’s yellow, one is blue. They feel as cool and crisp as they First did when they were new. They’re covered in fish swimming. (They are skipjack, I was told, Or at least what was described online From where the sheets were sold.) It recently occurred to me That when I go to sleep, Although I wish I’d stay...

Premium Member You were always meant to arrive before I could name you
You were always meant to arrive before I could name you, I saw you in the hazy delirium of midnight visions, In the golden-woven horizon where dreams dissolve at dawn, I reached out to you with hands that had never touched you, Whispering your name before I even knew it, And when you came, I did not sigh in wonder, But...

Premium Member I Meant Nothing
I believed that you loved me, But now the truth comes out. Turns out I'm not the one You can't live life without. I never would have guessed You did so well hiding it from me, And now that I know the truth, It's clear we weren't meant to be. I know because you decided to Show that none of us was true. I was...

Premium Member Meant For Me
I see you there, leaving me With your quiet blue Eyes, so gentle and true Wilder than the night, with a shadow Reaching beyond my heart, To the very edges of my spirit, To the music in my veins, The silence in my marrow, The lingering of grace that sighs, Forever – just you and I… I see you there, clever as the moon Who chooses...
