Ivan picked a sunflower from his flourishing garden and slipped the engagement ring on the stem before tying a (f/c) ribbon on it.

One SecondDear You,

Yes, I know what you're thinking:

"There's that creepy girl again,
the one that stares at me all day
and gets all nervous when I'm around."

But I have a lot to tell you,
even if you're not reading this,
so just bear with me.

You- yes, you- are ruining my life.

I used to be so content with myself,
convinced that love was pointless
and dating people is just a hassle.

I knew that looks didn't matter,
that I should look out for myself
and not care what other people think.

What have you done with that girl?

I'm wasting all my time on you,
and I know that, but I can't stop.

I worked so hard on that project,
hoping it would be per

JuliaShe’s the kind of girl people write books about.
Rides bikes too fast - - no hands, hair in flames eyes too.
Barefoot, dirt smeared, picks dandelions with her toes.
Train-track balancing act,
backyard trapezes laughter,
grassroots circus.
She paints her walls with memories.
Ceiling too. Me as well.
I find treasures in her soul.
She makes mine.
She has gypsy legs and a homeland heart I cannot steal.
A living poem I can’t rewrite –
the kind of girl summers are made of.

Her passionate flameHer flames burn passionately
Like a sparkle from a
Royal jewel
So beautiful

9.47you run through my veins
like you do my blood,
swallowing joints
like you do thoughts -
on strings, i dance
and i paint and i
try and try and try
so hard, for you
my dear, to be
the moon and stars
and for you realise
that every night
i am awake for you

-

but in the end
the sea will swallow
the waves,
and the sound will
fade to silence,
and the light will
fall into the dark
and we will become
dirt and dust again,
living in the hollows
of ourselves turned
inside out, turned
upside down

dysmorphic weatherspring came late this year
snow arrived along with april
and i found myself wondering
if this was what the whole year would be like
it wouldn't surprise me
given the recent events
pathetic fallacy and all that

Missing From The WorldSometimes, I’m missing from the world,
But no one even cares.

Oh look, they’re playing a game,
I wish I could join.

My feet move like clockwork,
They’re moving towards the group.

My hand reaches out to them,
But I’m instantly shoved away.

Pray,
Pray I don’t die lonely.

Tears fall from my face,
I run towards the sea.

Its arms comes closer to me,
I can’t help but to smile.

I’m standing in the puddle,
I’m ankle deep with my emotions.

People please,
Why am I ‘scary’?

I feel as if I’m dying inside,
The light went dark.

Wait,
There’s someone running to me.

A Fiery Flame

I should hate you.

I should wish for your death,
I should wish for your demise.
I should wish for you to perish,
Because you have been living as a disguise.

But I don't.

I should want to punch you,
And beat you,
And scream,
And kill,
And breach,
Until I had my everlasting fill.

But I cannot.

Luke, you changed....
I used to be able to hate you, I did, Luke....
But now....

I fall into your arms,
Wishing for this to end,
But wishing it would never in the same.

And yet, I wonder....
How did you do this to me?

A mere Replica!
I should be able to crush you!
..

Come to me nowI need him closer
I need him now
Kissing me hard
Pushing me back
Pulling me in
Pinning me down
Picking me up
Just come here
Come to me now

Feel my curves
Bite my lip
Kiss my neck
Bite it if you please
Just come here
Come to me now

To feel your lips
tracing down my jaw
Your warmth over coming me
Giving me chills
Just come here
Come to me now

These Past Weeks.These past weeks have been the best
Although I know that they could end in a flash,
And I know you may just want to leave it all behind
But I'll never forget it, cause it changed my life.

Every second that our lips touched
I felt a little bit of my heart heal,
I felt it explode in my chest...
I felt as if I slipped out of my mind, and straight into yours.

I would gladly give up this gift, my power to write
Just to hold you for another long night,
And I would give up my heart for you
Just to know if I could trust you to hold it,
But now, as far as I'm concerned, you've had it from the first kiss.

AwayThe stars are all I can see.
As I lay in grass.
So scared to see sunlight.
Because when I do…….
I have to leave you.
I'll have to leave your arms.
Your strong embrace.
Your heartbeat.
It sings to me like a lullaby.
This war
You fighting
It's ruining my lullaby
It seems you have a new scar every day
The sunlight is showing
Now I have to leave
Away from the camp
Back to the Allies
Away from the Axis
Away from you
Even though you're the enemy
I can't help but love you

Upon the Final NotesA dance is a dance, a twirl in the night
Begging for a reason, kindling to the flame.
Friendly words whisper to friendly ears,
Of times done and gone.
Lips smile, brushing a soft shoulder,
Begging the heart to make a mistake.
Only will remains, struggling,
Just to persevere.

Brown and BlueThere once was a boy who was so very tall
taller than everything and everyone
that he couldn’t help but look down on everything.
he looked down like a king on his world
or like an overlooker, miserable:
his face always noble, always tragic
photogenic, iconic
the way those long eyelashes were always drawn down
to hide his faded blue eyes.
he missed out on a lot, always looking at things like
concrete
and dirt
and slow-striding feet.

There once was a girl who was not quite as tall
(pretty average, actually)
with the brightest brown eyes
that saw the bright side of things;
amazingly, impossibly,
she was always looking up
at silly things l

Ad vitam aeternamJe te briserais bien le cœur,
Mais je crois que tu n'en as pas.
Tu n'es pas un enfant de chœur,
Pas non plus un enfant de roi.

Alors.

Chacun le voit ton beau visage,
Mais où sont donc tes beaux scrupules ?
D'autres que moi seraient plus sages,
J'aime les crapules.

Je suis prisonnière de ton songe,
Entichée d'un regard de toi.
Et quand la colère me ronge,
Mon corps bat pour toi...

My LoveOver the course of a few years
I set myself a mission that came with its fears
It came with its dark times
Times when there weren't many rhymes

Through many conflicts and decisions
I set myself to a new destination
One that was nice and very peaceful
A sanctuary that was to be very hopeful

I realized it as soon as I saw you
You had reminded me of everything that was true
I did not know you would make a big hit
On my feelings and emotions and she didn't even try

I knew it was her when I saw her eyes
Sparkling and beautiful like I hit the grand prize
I knew it was her when I heard her voice
A soothing melody and I knew she was a good choice

Go FishI am

Fishing in this deserted puddle for any possible fish
no matter how meatless.
   Yet my hooks are all sharp.

The word "friend"
   just doesn't suit you.
  And anytime I use it on you
     it's about as baggy and shapeless
  as the jackets I've been offered when I'm cold.
        No, you need something tighter.
        Something that fits to you and the
        smooth body you use.

Cute,
how when I think I'm in control

Polluted NightIt's too late
and the day has been stretched
across dotted night skies
polluted with tears
and the stains of searchlights.
And each glimmer of sun
that sparkles across my path
seems to disappear now
over this night's bloodbath.

Come now to save me, morning
from that which I lost
in the depths of evening,
deep into
dawn.
Roll across my mind
sweet epiphany
and salvage me
please.
I'm terrified.

SubstituteSweating,
this is the only way I know how.
I need to feel pleasure
instead of just pain.

Nervousness,
this swelling in the pit
of my stomach
to the core,
to the very core.

The feeling's worth the damage
worth repeating it
over and over
till I'm empty.

It's no sacrifice,
it's a substitute.

"Ooo's" and "Aww's"
   and I sitting in the corner
looking at what she wrote.

  Tears blinked from my eyes,
   sweat dropped for goodbyes.
    unrequited sighs.

Smile on her face,
just an embrace
     thrills me.

  I can't get over
     how things aren't meant to be,
  how this is my last time
     writing you and me.
Soon you'll be just another recollection.
   Another heartbreak
I can add to my collection.

The last words we said were triumphs for pain.
I could say how I feel, but it's best to refrain.

I can say I've experienced similar moments, similar pain and tried in a similar way to express myself, but here, you waxed far more beautifully than I ever did, RedEarthofTerra.
Thank you.

That first stanza got me as I looked through your gallery, I was drawn to it, mesmerized. I love this stanza, especially those two first lines, that’s really strong and intricate emotion you captured there, at least in my opinion. I also love the way the sentences are uneven, disarranged like, gives it a feeling of lost, broken, fragility – very good, though sad, vibe.

I would change but one thing, on the second stanza’s first line, it’s not clear to me why you didn’t use the rhyme and rhythm of the whole stanza and applied it to the first line too, like –

Tears blinked from my eyes,
Sweat dropped for goodbyes.
Unrequited sighs.

I do not see a reason to be ashamed, not of this poem, or any other poem that reflects an outlet and feelings, and not of the subject.

~RedEarthofTerra Jun 1, 2008 Hobbyist Writer

Wow, thank you so much. It's really nice to get a new perspective from a new viewer, especially one who gives valuable input.
Thanks much for the suggestion -- sometimes it takes another's eyes to see things clearly.

It's a great piece of constructive criticism and I don't see why I didn't do that before, lol.

Thanks again! You just made my day brighter.

~navarre61636 May 31, 2008

very well done, and actually reflects how I feel at the moment... again, well done.

~navarre61636 Jun 6, 2008

no, I guess it wasn't how I felt, more like it reached me... I just used the wrong words...

~RedEarthofTerra May 31, 2008 Hobbyist Writer

Thanks sweetie.
And I'm sorry to hear that, it's not a pleasant feeling.
Wanna talk about it?

~Effamay May 31, 2008

no, you shouldn't.

because it's a fantastic piece of poetry,

that, secondly, reassures people like me that the feeling is universal.

~RedEarthofTerra May 31, 2008 Hobbyist Writer

It's always a relief to know that I'm not as isolated as I may think.
Thank you, and again, thank you.
