Number Six

-
Enough is enough.
I'm weary of disappointment.
I can only be left so many times,
Before believing I'm the problem.

 And so I am the problem-- 
You left me just like the last.
I wanted more time.
I wanted so much more with you.

 I can say you were like the rest.
To make me feel better.
But, you weren't.
You were different than the last.

 That's why it makes this so much harder.
I didn't want to lose you.
You made me feel seen.
You made me different.

 At first I wasn't all in.
Little by little, you made me invest in you.
You made me believe in you.
Made me even trust you.

 Then slowly, you began to disappear.
I saw it, but I refused to believe it.
I refused to see that you
Were going to be like the others.

 Baby, my heart had been broken
Five times before this.
Most hurt more than others.
You made it to number six.

 You became another listed bullet point.
Yet, I didn't want you to be another
Added number to my list of failures.
I wanted you to last.

 I wanted to hold onto you.
I wanted to breathe you in.
I wanted to be with you.
More than anything, I wanted you to feel the same.

 Enough is enough.
I'm done with hoping for a change.
I can only be left so many times
Before convincing myself I'm the reason.

 Maybe I want too much too soon.
Maybe I go all in before you made it there.
Maybe I'm just pathetic.
Maybe I'm gullible, because I see good.

 Baby, I miss you more and more each day.
Hoping that maybe you will come back.
So I can scratch you off from being 
Number Six.

 You weren't just a number.
You were more to me than just another man.
You were more than another heart break.
You were worthy of my love and affection.

 Somehow, I thought I was going to see you again.
I didn't think February 6th was going to be the last.
Going to the beach, getting sand on our clothes.
Laying down beneath the blanket of stars.

 Digging my face under your chin.
Engraving your scent into my memory.
Holding you tight within my embrace.
Kissing you until we drew breaths of fresh air.

 Baby, you were more than number 6.
And I'll always remember February 6th.

Those Three Words

-
This moment time is where I hold on to the most. I feel the wind against my rosy cheek and many times people stare at me as if I was a freak. I wonder about the times of the chemical reaction. I breathe in and out as I close my eyes. His image comes to mind... His beautiful smile radiates much sunlight and I can't help but to think of a way to feel his embrace. The sound of his voice relaxes me so I won't faint. All I could think about, if this was fate. I open my eyes and there he is. Holding his breath as I see the beauty that is him. No wonder I feel like a fool. His blue eyes sparkle in the sunlight as I touch the palm of my hand to his cheek. His eyes close as I lean my forehead upon his and I feel protected yet so happy. Then he says those three words I'd been waiting for... "I love you." As I heard those words role off his tongue. I couldn't help but to smile like an idiot. The thought of him is so love driven that I can't see my life without him ...

Our World... Your World... My World

-
The world can be cold, dark and dangerous but it also could be warm, bright and welcoming. It's how we see our world and it's how we want our world to be. As people we get caught up in every day routines that we don't realize how beautiful the world is. The nature that surrounds us is breath-taking and we take our world for granted. Go ahead and trash it... Let your world be dark and dirty, but I want my world to be clean and brighter everyday when I awake. I see the world as a gift and everyday we are living is a challenge. How could we make the world a better place? How could we protect ourselves from harm without damaging the world of others? How do we become better? When I look up at the sky... I am reminded of him. It reminds me of the beauty of his smile, his amazing laugh that sings with the birds, and the sun radiating light upon his eyes, making them sparkle under the horizon. My world is you and everyone around me. Most importantly it reminds of my GOD whom I ...

Our Chapter is Finally Over

-
Many times it could be so hard, I have to throw away my card, The chapter of you is finally over, There are no more clovers, You left and I accept, Your memories is all I kept, You were someone I won't forget, At times I feel you near me yet, You are so far from me, My love is beyond the sea, It seems like you don't care, As if all I touched was teared, Look into my eyes and see me fall apart, You no longer will have my heart, Yet when I see your smile, You make my world worthwhile, This is what I look for, To walk along the shore, Feeling the wind against my cheek, I imagine myself at the top of a peak, Holding you tight, We will shine under the beauty of this light, Now I realize that this is only a dream, I will no longer fall in your scheme, I will find someone like you, Someone who will always be true.
