i think there are two ways to
see the world:
you can either choose to see
all of the lies and sadness,
or you can black it all out
and pretend everything`s okay

what is your definition of love?
a kiss on the cheek or a
simple i love you under sheets;
falling in love, all over again
in the dark and pouring rain:
your eyes give you away

eye contact and fights have
always scared me,
the type of fight where
no matter what you say,
you`ll still be where you were-
spinning in circles until you fall down

some nights i lay awake
trying to unwind my tangled-up
heart, realizing all i have
left of him are memories
sneaking past untrained eyes;
i remember whispering cliched forever`s
this is inspired by a few of my

crazy
perfect
insane
exciting
&& painful

relationships

plus the movie, the u.s. of leland [first stanza]





enjoy reading my heart

hi there - just wanted to say this is a beautiful poem - you have a way with words. x)

"the type of fight where
no matter what you say,
you`ll still be where you were-
spinning in circles until you fall down"

these lines are beautiful, and seem to describe a lot of the situations that i find myself in with my partner these days. Nice work.
