Fixation

I sat down one day to contemplate on your beauty 

I wanted to write a poem about it

to wrap up all the words in one stanza or two 

I wanted it to rhyme and flow off my lips

I wanted to summarize your heart 

In just a couple of word 

Put together in a single verse 

But your beauty is too grand for me to put In writing 

There's no denying 

I'm...

I'm simply Fixated on you 

See if God put angels on this earth

That angel would be you 

Because the only thing that is more beautiful than your face is your heart 

And that's perfect 

See there is no such thing as perfection 

But I'm pretty sure you are the definition of it 

And those things that make you so insecure
are those very things that make you so very perfect 

You're so beautiful and you don't even know it

Time Travel

I want to look the past me in the eyes and tell her 
to never love anyone more than you love yourself 

But that isn't possible is it, 

I mean it isn't possible to love yourself more than you love another human being right?
 Because when you love you lose pieces of yourself
and you know damn well you'll never get those pieces back. 

And each time your heart breaks
you become half of the half of what you used to be,
 and the cycle continues until there's nothing left
but tiny broken pieces of what you used to mean.
 Until you mean nothing,
until you are just an empty shell of the person you once were.
And just to be sure that your hallowed out
 someone will try to break you again
 but this time you feel nothing
 and you are what you are because
they made you into this husk. 

So I wish I could look at the future me
 in her eyes and tell her to be strong
 and to somehow find a new way to love
 and teach her how to move on.

Thoughts

Tell me about the thoughts
that keep you up late at night

Let me be those thoughts that linger in your mind
like the scent of bitter wine

Let me be that last taste on your lips
That you slowly lick
When you can't get enough of it

I want to be that tattoo you get
Impulsively
But please don't regret ever wanting me

I want to be the sun that radiate warmth to your face
The sweet love and tenderness in every embrace

I want to be the words that role off your tongue
The careful whispers
The songs that are sung

I need to be the last thoughts you have before you sleep
I need you to know You are those thoughts for me

I want to be the reason that you wake up for the next day
I want you to love me in every possible way

Tell me
the thoughts that keep you up late at night
and let me be those thoughts
