Double Sided Contradictions

You're the warmth of my blankets
On a cold winter's night
You're the kiss of summer rain
And a ray of gleaming light
You're peppermint tea
And a thick paperback
You're a blazing bonfire
You're the wind at my back
You're the smell of vanilla
And hazelnut coffee
And sound like my singing
When no one is listening
But for all of your good there's a counterpart
A chink in your armor
A weakness of heart
You're nails on a chalkboard
And the stains of wet paint
You're children crying
You leave destruction in your wake
You're calculus problems
And old rotten milk
You're dog bites and bee stings
And the whole world on a tilt
You're broken
And passive
And let people walk
All over opinions
All over your thoughts
It's not that you lie
You just don't tell the truth
It's not that you don't listen
You just chip away youth
You can say you're realistic
But all I see is your doubt
You can say that you don't-
But all you do is pout
You can say you're a good guy
And, hell, maybe you are
But there're two sides to the story of you
A life behind closed doors

You Say...

You say you love rain, yet you use an umbrella. You say you love sun, yet you seek shade when it's out. You say say you love wind, yet you want shelter when it roars.

Trouble

Trouble is as trouble does. Trouble is I have trouble enough. Trouble doubled when dealing in love. Is troubling when doubled because. A trouble doubled is a trouble too much.

Personal- if you don't actually know me this wont be too interesting. Just a very sleepy note to a friend.

Goodbye Opuss!

Goodbye, goodbye, Time does fly. There were those days, When I had the time. To express my thoughts. To wonder around Opuss's courts, But now these exams, Have cut my time short.

Letter To A Friend

Writing to a friend Is not very hard, It's like writing a birthday card. A few smiles here and a few jokes there, Nothing else really to compare. Been friend forever, Arguments. Never.

Hello!

I haven't gone far. Never gone from this place. I couldn't leave you all. From my heart you'll not escape. I'm just in my world. Penned by my own hand. Being gone so long. Was never in my plan.

Im Leaving You

My dear Opuss I bid farewell, This is sad for me to tell, But I'm leaving you I don't have time, To sit all day and write little rhymes.

Love, My Dear.

It's a whisper in the morning, It's a goading in the eve, It's that group of words I use on you, When I try to make you leave.
