The Girl with a red hat

She woke up to a sunrise;
Bright in her eyes as she rose
She stares at the moon as it disappears.

The red hat sitting on her dresser,
As she picked out her daily dress.

Brushed her hair, sprayed perfume-
Still, something was missing.
The girl followed the echoes of her mom’s voice;
Alerting her of the time rush.

As she waited for the bus, the sense of incompleteness
Overweighed her. 
Right then, her mom lent her the red hat.

A slight grin crosses her lips
As she outfitted herself with the red hat.

From then on, she’s never felt incomplete
Nor forget the red hat.

Dedication for love

dedication for love

You’re being noticed by others,
While I search for your love.
I’ve been lied to, knowing I've been
Replaced by your mother's love.
Oh, what can I get in return?

I've taken all the warmth from your arms
But it's futile; we're nothing worthwhile.
You seem to be unaware of my needs,
though I need you more than ever.

I lost myself scrutinizing for intimacy,
Yet, you're searching for the lies I've told.

I've fallen deep into the hole
You built for me.
Yet, with my resolute heart, I chase 
The hope of love that refuses to fade.

love against the tide

“Love is the strongest force in the universe.”
Can this statement be proven true?
Does it approve of the unusual orientation?
Does it contradict the unstoppable force against eux?
Could love hold its ground when everything crumbles?

Love lingers in the shadows, even when the light is hard to find.
I was told to know that love is invisible, yet visible
It pillages its way into your heart, leaving a bruise 
Yet you somehow hold the poise.
It's a constant cycle, it never stops; it never stops; never changes
It leads you to your soulmate after fracturing your heart. 

Once you meet the one, the void in your heart is ephemeral
Love can be unrequited, surging you into a hole. 
Even when you give your oath
Love is a statement yet to be known.

I thought to myself, a nebulous thing(?)
“Love is a haze seen in the woods that never disappears;
Even when you hold your gaze”
As I've learned to know the characteristics of love 
I dance to its rhythm, hoping it will fall my way.
