Declaration
I’ve always liked you.
Always.
Arm's Length
I love you
THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS
much
Wuthering Heights
You are always, always on my mind:
not as pleasure, but as my very own being.
February 14th
Put your hands up,
if you are in love today.
Hopeless
I love everything about you,
even the way you pretend you don’t see me.
Default
No matter what you ask me,
the answer will always be
“because I love you.”
Longing
Today I passed by the house you used to live in.
Gone were the yellow daffodils,
and you.
Moon Heart
My heart is the moon, my dear.
Do not break it, or else
this night shall be even darker.
Listen
Listen to all that I have to say
before you decide that you’ll stay

“Do You Love Me?”
– Wolfgang Mozart
in Love
So, tell me. How much longer are we going to keep doing this ever seductive witholding dance?
Because I am beginning to fall.
“The best love affairs are those we never had.”
– Norman Lindsay
Hey Guess what
Happiness is not that difficult.
It starts with a simple smile.
Lost
If this makes any sense at all, I can no longer look into your eyes and see the person you see in me.
Because you are not here.
And I no longer know who I am.
Would it?
As I sat at my best friend’s wedding ceremony, I couldn’t stop wondering.
If I was the one who got to the bar five minutes early that night, if I was the one who struck up a conversation with him first, would it have been me who’s standing next to him at the alter right now?
Would it?
A Different Choice
Aw damn, look at you now.
You make me want to give up everything I have to go back to the days when I was just a 15-year-old poor lad who had nothing but a mountain bike and you.
Only this time, I’d choose you over the bike.
“Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.”
– Rumi
Shhh...
So much is said, but so little is understood.
I listen to the broken record go ‘round and ‘round.
Until then
Our parting has been written in the stars. But before that happens, we still have a lifetime together.
The Saddest Verse of Neruda
To hear the immense night, more immense without her.
And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass.
Nostalgia
Love is so short, and forgetting is so long.
“What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who...”

Moving
You have moved from the guest room to the master bedroom
of my heart.
Second Rated
Our love is just like that Hollywood romance movie, don’t you think?
The handsome man meets and marries the girl, after having a grand and passionate love affair with a beautiful woman who he spent all his love for.
Except that she is the beautiful woman, and I am the girl you settle for.
If You Forget Me
Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you little by little. If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you. If you think it long and mad, the wind of banners that passes through my life, and you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots, remember that on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms and my...

I intend to love you forever.
So far, so good.

Poetry
Is it true that “all poems are love poems”?
No, only the good ones.

– Lily Tomlin
Regret
During my foolish years, I ran around in the wild chasing butterflies, hoping to possess the fleeting beauty. O how vanity had me down on bended knees.
But in the end, I missed everything that was right in front of me, including you.
“I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart so long. If we’re in...”

The Lonely Walk
Ever since she was gone he avoided taking those long walks by the river at night like they used to. He is afraid that loneliness will jump out of the dark and stab his heart into pieces.
