Wlw Poems

its not starting over if it never ended

if tomorrow happens to be what ive waited so long for,
then my eyes might start to pour. 
ill say yes,
although you already knew. 

i never lost you,
only tried. 
but not even once did my heart say goodbye. 
ive tried letting go, tried to forget. 
but something about you, your love,
my soul could not reset.

The look of love

I wish you had waited and given me a chance, 
But instead you text me so excited she gave you a glacne.
It was rushed and blurred,
Swift by clean,
It was the type of attraction, I wish, you had towards me.

It was the type of glance that had you circling the fire holding drinks,
Pulling close to come

The Gentle Stare

The sunlight spills across her hair, a river of spun gold, And I, like a moth drawn to a flame it cannot hold, observe her from afar, My gaze, a silent symphony, a melody that never leaves my heart, I wonder, am I allowed to look at her with such a tender, lingering start?
Her laughter,

Gaze Unspoken

Am I allowed to look at her like that? A question soft, a silent plea within. Her kindness pours, a sunbeam warm and bright, Could it be wrong to find such grace a sight?
She moves like water, gentle, ever-flowing, My eyes, they follow, a current caught and swayed. Her laugh, a melody, fills all the

Strangers

And suddenly, we were strangers again,
lost in the whispers of autumn leaves,
where laughter once danced like sunlight,
our shared stories, fragile as spun sugar,
swirling in the dim corners of memory,
each echo a soft ache against the silence.
I trace the ghost of your smile,
against the faded canvas of yesterday,
where we spun dreams under the vast azure,
weaving threads

amy

i have written about her many times, 
but the more time i get to spend with her,
the more her beauty prevails
she is more beautiful than a thousand beauties 
and her beauty isn’t even the best thing about her
she feels like the first sip of strong coffee on a winters morning
like when you’re turning a page

Falling in love with a girl as a girl

In the quiet hours of twilight,  
her laughter dances through the air,  
a melody woven with golden threads,  
echoing in the corners of my heart.  

I watch her, a constellation of dreams,  
hair like the cool morning sunrise, cascading in whispers,  
her smile, a sunbeam that breaks through clouds,

growing pains by word of the lord

we started together,
you and i.
we grew as we
wandered this earth,
the smell of soil permeated our senses.
we stayed so close 
our roots began to bond,
the origin of our creation
became a union, an abomination.

given the choice 
between their doctrines,
and their children, 
they chose the scripture. 
instructions
on how to raise
saplings and sinners like us.

over time,
our roots were separated

Crush

The more i try to push you out, the more my mind denied that 

And as the days passed and nights grew i find your presence closer to me 

So i spiral and question every possibility of us although it feels like a reach 

I’m hopeless yet so hopeful and i’m so scared but so

our curse - a love poem

i see the way you look at him,
holding his hand,
kissing him,
and i see  you’ve been cursed.

cursed to love a man you never truly loved,
cursed to lose the girl who gave you butterflies.
if you were a boy,
you said, so many years ago,
i think i’d want to kiss you.
so unsure of yourself in your sentences

Why

I cant help but ask why. 
Why did she become my friend way back in year 12.
She was so funny, and kind, and perfect.
so perfect.
Why would she choose to spend time with me. 
I wasn't fun.
I was quiet, and sad most of the time.
But she chose to stay with me.

 A year has past and

Your femininity/masculinity attracts me;?
Your steady strength supports me;
?Your tenderness sustains me;?
You’re the perfect love for me.
