You made me trust you

Because I love you,
I tell you how I feel,
No matter what.

Even when I disagree.

For a world without you

In The Darkest Room.
And In The Love Of Light
Screaming & Dropping
Breathing While to Live The
Pleasure Of Love
And We Try To More Harder,
Looking

I Know You Hate When We Fight, Cause It Never Solves A Thing,
I Know In Your head over and over You Need Me to Be Your Right Wing.
I Never Want to fuss, I just get to heated,
carry me through the barren leaves in braids of trees life is a known mystery
locked horns with the mere notion of joy as a bat with girl meets boy lift your head high
Love, just like chocolate
Comes in different forms
Sometimes it's sweet
Sometimes bitter
At times, there are nuts involved
so about my everything, my world, my bae, my bestfriend, my luva
that person is sooo special to me i dont no what i would do without them
im in love with them

Dear mom,
its been hard hasn't it?
dealing with all the problems in your head
not being able to tell me anything because you don't
want me to worry.
Dear Alex, you are as golden as the rays the sun holds so close to its heart.
Your hands are as soft and delicate as the petals of a sunflower. You bring the
Dear Alaskan Boy,
I don't think I told you about this particular story, but my mother always told me,
that you have freckles on your face and angel kisses all over the place.
I write this for you,
for when you're feeling blue.
Through the dampness of the night,
know that there is always light.
I write this for you,
for desicions you drew.
For your mistakes,
The Forgetful Old Man’s Dream
By: Shane Rieken
From within his lonesome chamber, one woeful, rainy night,
Dearest, dearest, darling, love,
Words could never truly speak,
What you mean to me.
The stars are my friends,
The grass my support,
Oak trees and singing birds,
Company in my loneliness.
Does he love me,
like I love him?
Because-
He makes my heart race,
At a fast pace.
Does he not know
Yet-
Does he not see,
The type of love I have for him
A year gone to waste. Every phone call, every text message, every dollar spent, all a waste. Every lie you told I believed.
I make you cryTears falling from your eyesYou look at me with distrust,painYou ask me why.Why hurt me, just to come and love afterwards.My heart breaks from the disdain in your eyes.
My room is my sanctuary a place I can go to hideWhen im hiding from my demons because they know that im aliveMy room is my safe space a place I call my own A place I go when everythings turned left and i feel all aloneA place I cry my tears and a
You said
"One day we'll have a last kiss"
And I wrinkled my forehead,
And opened my mouth, only to close it.
Because you're right.
One day our lips will part.
Dear Love, Hate, Me, and You.
I Hate the way you’re always right.
And I hate the way you look at me.
You are my rock.
When I need you, you're always there.
You are like a blanket from my childhood.
When I need your comfort you are there to wrap around me.
You are like the ocean.
Finding someone who is caring, careful, conscientious is far more difficult than I’d like it to be.When I found you I felt at peace, I felt like the world finally had meaning, motive, mind.When I met you my anxiety emerged its way back out of the
Love-
A beautiful thing.
To the world,
And all it contains-
Love:
When you see her crying
Out in the streets,
Out in the rain,
Water streaming down
Her face-
For all that it is, love…
love isn’t one for being bound.
Not even when placed in
the most fortified of prisons
will it ever submit to its capture.
It takes on new names.
New owners.
I love you, Because when you look at me with those big, beautiful eyes, It reaches them when you smile. I love you, Because whenever I babble about my day, You listen without judgment. I love you,
Because I love you, honesty will be ever present
You can rest assured that our communication is true
That my thoughts and actions are pure to you
There are no games I secretly play
Planted in a world where neither love could conquer hate
A rose was hoped to bloom there for she was the rarest of all them all
It was only a matter of time before the storms would take a turn
There are things even a photograph cannot capture.
The moments preceding.
The moments after.
Both the backstory and destination left to be told with a snippet of time.
In this portrait,
You love me, you love me not
the blooming rose may never rot
You always stayed at my side
Down the fainty rode of my ride
Through the dark clouds, comes your light
I always wanted you in my sight
To the edge of the universe and back for you,
I'll miss the broken avenue
To stay by your side forever,
Even with the sunrise calls,
I'd rather trip I'd rather fall,
Than to have you in pain,
Once again you pull me down
In the waters of judgment and shame
Current by current stripped in guilt of being
In disposer to your supposed great love
As treacherous darkness blinds me
Because I love you
I’ll sacrifice myself
Because I love you
I’ll treat you like a Queen
Because I love you
I’ll listen to what you say
Because I love you
I’ll give of myself
You are the embodiment of love.
from the way you secure me to the way you do little-unspoken things for me
the honesty we have between us is like a rose in full blossom
nothing is unknown
Love washes over you like first summer rain. Love isn’t weighed down by the worry of being late four minutes. Love is safe.
When you love someone with all your heart,
You should strive to do your very best.
For when the right person comes along,
You need to cherish every moment.
Young and new to reality of worldthey only see the good in a bodywords of eternity caring are hurleda figure of beauty always gaudythe controlling hands curling far around
To all of my good friends,
Whose love is my greatest gift
One which I hope never ends;
For love is ever swift.
Your love is kindness
Your love is laughter
Your love is my happily ever after
Tell me Mr. Hero, what have You done?
Is this not my story?
You’ve commandeered the issue
my newest release
There,
See Your summons in the sky
That which obscures my image
Today
I do not shower
But you tell me I smell like a flower
Today
I misplaced my toothbrush
So you gave me a brand new one
Today
I do not match
Yet you insist I am still a catch
The healthiness shoudln't have to be forced,
it shoudl come naturally,
like how you both met eachother naturally.
One shoudln't have to ask for respect,
it should just be know to give it,
We met when we were twelve and I fell for you then,
But you fell in love with one of my old friends.
Then she broke your heart during sophomore year,
We met when we were twelve and I fell for you then,
But you fell in love with one of my old friends.
Then she broke your heart during sophomore year,
A friend of mine had been abused by her boyfriend
She had been pushed
he lied
I didn't know what to do
This isn't what a realationship was suppose to be like
Remember when we asked each other out,
At the same time?
It was then I knew that you were perfect for me
But I was still so nervous
I live in a house that does not feel like a home.
Warmth, kind words, soothing voices, and patience
Do not find their way past the walls and doors of the rooms that separate us.
My mind controls me.
Thank you,
For making me realize that I am worth it,
For showing me that I have every reason to be confident in who I am,
For never pressuring me to be someone I'm not,
The relationship we had was not solely built on love, but I needed it.
See, the tweets you posted were the first giveaway;
It showed your spirit and the things you believed in up until today.
I think she liked me because I was sweet
And her folks had never let her trick or treat,
On Easter she’d throw away her chocolate eggs,
Her Reeses and her Smarties,

Because I love you...
We are star crossed lovers
Lovers that are soul mates til the end
End of time, End of our lives
Lives that were made for each other
He says:
I know you’ve wondered,
I’ve known for quite a while,
You wonder if I love you,
Since I act so juvenile.
It takes a fraction of a second to
open your mouth and say
"I love you."
It takes a lifetime to recover
when he didn't really
love you.
But you love him,
he plays you against yourself because
i was doubting myself
when you came along
holding words crafted so carefully
as if you were afraid
that if i held them too forcefully
It wasn't the way in which HE tortured ME with hope,
nor was it the words HE said that angered me.
HE was so ignorant,
knew nothing of the loss I was fighting to endure.
HE had not seen my pain.
W-Whole: Two halves make a whole
H-Happiness: Happiness is key to in any relationship

Oh, Darling, honey dear
I will hold you near
It’s quiet underneath the moon
Let’s stay here until noon
Darling, honey dear
Real love, it's the way you talk to me,
you never let me leave without knowing how much you love me,
how much I mean to you.
Real love, it's the way you look at me,
Because I love you, we became best friends
Because I love you, we laugh and have fun
Because I love you, I became attached
Because I love you, I follow you around like a dog
Warmth, compassion, patience, understanding
These are the ingredients, please don't be demanding.
I strive to give you my best self.
In return, you give me yours.
Knock Knock
God? Are you there?
God? God?
I have a question.
Innocence?
Do you remember it God?
When our hands were meant to comfort,
Not to bruise and neglect.
Just like you I don’t need to explain the complex yet fragile emotion I have for you. As for the other one, I didn’t expect for you and I to have a long lasting bond, a bond that is so impregnable not even time itself can break it.
Two in love don't need music to dance,
jokes to laugh, or wine for romance.
They don't need stars to say goodnight,
or for either to be right.
They don't need an event to come together;
i.
to who it may concern,
when we met, i was 12
i think. i can't remember. the
memories that were meant to be
mine from ages 12 to 14 are
scattered and fractured because of you.
My father taught me
What manipulation was,
What it meant to wait for hours
For someone who never shows.
For all his claims that he loves me,
His actions do not match
Those empty words.
Because I love You
By Wendy Johnson
Because I love you, I will not allow you to suffer pain alone
The first date I knew I would love you
You asked me questions about my plans for college
You were careful not to push too far
You asked if I wanted extra butter for my popcorn
Because I love you,
I will not dangle your past as leverage to guilt
or shame you.
I will not emotionally or mentally torture you
with ridiculous mind games.
I will not ever physically lay a hand on you.
It doesn't matter
Whether you have blonde or brown hair
Or you are skinny or fatter
Because I love you
I don't love you because you love me.
I don't love you for the things you do.
“Because I love you”,
You said,
As if it were all that mattered.
Yet still ,
I struggled -
Looking for more of a reason.
Because I love you,
I listen to your gossip and grievances
about your lovers
and I hold you still when you
lose control of your body to your memories
and I teach you how to ride a bike
Because I love you, says the uniformed
man boarding the plane to Iraq. Because
I love you, says the young woman handing
Her baby to her new mother. Because I love
"Sweet Mother
I cannot weave
Slender Aphrodite
has overcome me
with longing for a girl."
Sweet Sappho
I cannot despair
This Girl
has held my hand
through the darkest of tunnels.
Love is infinite, love is transient
Love harbors happiness, love harbors doom
Love makes me fight
Every day is a battle
Sometimes loves harms me
And I feel like giving up
As a child,
I thought love was blue.
The color of the scarf my mother insistently wrapped around my neck
even though there were still flowers in the ground.
The color of summer skies,
my father's eyes,
Let my hands be always gentle,
And never leave you grey and blue.
Let my touch bring you comfort,
Because I love you.
It’s ok, that’s love
Rips your heart out and becomes
Sad and beautiful like a fallen dove

Letter 1 [From: Him To: Me]
Because you loved me, I was smart.
Because you loved me, I was funny.
Because you loved me, I was outgoing.
Because you loved me, I was selfless.
Because you loved me, I was caring.
When I was eight years old, I wanted to wear makeup:
Bright red lipstick like my aunt wore to leave kiss marks on every cup I drank from.
But daddy said, "no baby, wear all the cherry Chapstick you want
They say one is a lonely number.
But at least one has itself.
Zero has no one.
Zero doesn't even love itself.
Zero is a placeholder.
A void of no emotion.
It must learn to love itself,
I get so caught up
In my feelings for you
That nothing seems real
And reality ain't true
I get lost in my thoughts
When you come to mind
But I know in my heart
I'll come back in due time
Because
Your words sting. Ring. Resonate. Reverberate. Words hit and I must choose.
I choose which words to pull tight, which words to, loose.
Because I
I thought what we had, was different,
Apparently everything I spoke of was gibberish.
You gave me scrumbling false hope,
and hung me, with a busted rope.
A rope consisting of tears, betrayel and broken trust,
Most of their conversation were full pleas and coersion
The words "if you love me were" often used in the sight of a diversion
She thought he loved her because he made excuses and then he would bother to make up for them
Since when was love only preffered
by a small bird.
If we were to believe these immortal words
that, "Love is only for the birds."
then it would be aabsolutely absurd!
Since when has it been concurred
I love you, because
of the way you run your fingers through my hair
and look at me
with that special look you have
I love you, because
you hold me
when I need you
and let me go
I’ve grown sick of this belief drilled in your head
I swear, he’s perfect when were alone together
When every night last week I laid restless in my bed
The days are getting shorter and shorter, and I just don't know how much longerI can hide it.
I just wanted to say I love you
for that night.
For bearing with me as I bore into yur arms
shaking,
taking in shallow breaths of panic
in the passanger seat of your car
in a murky parking lot I call:
Age spots your hands and veins line
your wrists, and your crow-feet’d eyes
lie smooth against silk. I smile ‘round
teeth that have slumped and have stained,
All the hearts I can write,
Saving all I can find,
Just to find the one to lucky one,
Whereas gender no matter to me.
Issues of love that try to fight,
It is because I love you, that these very things I do are all for you.
When the lights are dim and your watery eyes too unfocused to see what is right before you
What is this called?
that thing I feel
that thing i feel here
here in my heart
it comes and goes
like waves in the ocean
an ocean that will never be touch
I wish you felt the same way
Because I love you, the horizontal
Cuts faded from my skin
The voices that screamed, keeping me awake
No longer pester my mind
Love is what gives you protection and care
In a healthy relationship, you wouldn’t have to be scared
You feel a smile when both can connect
Not sadness, anger, or thoughts of neglect
