Love Is a Mystery

Love is like unwrapping a mystery flavor,
It either works for your tastes buds, or it doesn't.
It has a sense of humor.
It prickles at your tongue.
It doesn't leave you alone.
You begin to wonder and question its flavor.
Is it what you were hoping?
Does it make you want more?
Did it make you smile or scowl?
Was it sweet or foul?

It either understands your taste or it doesn't.
Because love is like unwrapping a mystery flavor.
You don't know which one you're gonna get.
But when you do, you'll either
Love it, hate it, or be undecided.
But, out there somewhere is your perfect mystery flavor.

Mine turned out to be spicy,
Though I prefer sweet.
But sometimes sweet and spice
Turns into everything nice.

Crossed

Infinitely strong.

His heart is what I long.

His love is what I need.

I'm prepared to be of greed.

As long as we're in love,

Truly in love, I mean,

As long as we are what we need,

True love is all we should perceive.

Immeasurable love defines us.

Endlessly loving just as we promised.

Always and forever united.

Amazed and in awe at how

Perfectly our worlds collided.

We will be infinitely strong.

Constantly perfecting ourselves like a song.

Seeing all of our rights and our wrongs,

Not caring one bit about our flaws.

Because being perpetually in love 

Is the only place our hearts crossed.

Every Second Is a Kiss

For every raindrop
Is a kiss to you.
For every flower
In the spring that blooms.
For every hour
I never spend with you,
Every second is a kiss to you.

For every star in
The night time sky,
For every tear
That falls from my eyes.
For every waking moment
That I'm alive,
Every second is a kiss to you.

And Still He Loves Me

I'm jealous of how we used to be,
How sweet and innocent you spoke to me.
The way you told me how you felt everyday,
How gently you'd say my name.
I miss the "us" that we were,
The young love that we were.
The innocence in what we would say,
The small gentle kiss we would sneak in.
The endless hugs we'd sink in.
You'd look me in the eyes and smile,
You never even looked down at my body.
You saw me, just me. Only me.
You loved me,
And my heart melted into yours.
You felt my soul and made it soar.
I never knew how long this would last,
But I'm so happy this hasn't passed.

You still love me, even until this day.
Although it's not the same.
I see the difference in the way you smile.
The way you laugh and hold me down.
The difference in the way say my name,
The way you tell me that you'd never love again.
I see it now, how innocent we were then.
We have been through so much together,
So much like always and forever.
I told you that one day and
You said you'd never forget.
It's true, you never did.
You still love me just like we promised.

I might be jealous of how we used to be,
But still to this day your love runs over me.
You're my bestfriend that keeps me in love,
Your my everything that I'd never give up.

Pumpkins

I'm leaping through pumpkin isles,
I look back and I see you smile.
You tell me that I look like a baby deer.
I turn around and go back to you,
I start playfully punching you,
And you pretend that I've broken you.

You take me by the hand,
And you show me a pumpkin I might like.
I smile and I see you feel satisfied.
You tell me that it was nothing but that you tried,
And I hug you with all my might
And you pretend that I've broken you.

Boy, I'm as little as anyone could be.
Why do you keep teasing me?
But anyways I keep on smiling.
I poke you around your chest,
Wondering if you've got pecks,
Then you pretend that I've broken you!

Again I say, boy, I'm not that strong.
I'm as little as the town I'm from.
Then you see my face
And grab me around my waist.

He tickles me every where!
I think the words, but I do not swear.
I'm laughing until my ribs really hurt.
I tell him, boy, I think you've broken me,
I can't seem to get back on my feet,
C'mon, I'm as little as anyone could be.

Then you sit up right,
Look me in the eyes,
And you take my hand so gently.
Here I am, looking you in the eyes,
You don't understand how much
My butterflies rise.

He says, "Girl, you've broken me,
Why can't we just already be?
I'm here waiting for you to be mine.
I see your eyes are beautiful,
Take my hand, you're something more...
Then just a friend.
Girl, I'm broken...
For you."

Blocked

There is really less to say,
I've written what I've had on my plate.
Writing was a filter for all my love.
But everything's already lifted into the sky above.

It's not that I've lost my love,
It's not that I can't write.
It's thinking of more things to say,
And saying it right.

I've been strewn down
Because of not knowing
What else to express.
I'm feeling empty and burdened,
Speechless and compressed.

Writer's block.
That's what this is.
Not knowing what to write,
Not knowing what else to express.
Speechless and compressed.

Don't Shoot Me Down

Cuz I will fall,
I'm not the master of it all.
Here I am with all my love,
But you don't understand it's true.
All that I am is here for you,
Nothing about anybody else is real.
I keep telling you what I feel,
And it's like you don't believe me.
I'm not bulletproof,
I've got you to lose,
And I never want that to happen.
I love you, and that's the truth.
Just believe in my words,
Let my heart be heard.
