Origami Heart

Unfold me
I am yours
A paper heart
Easily torn

See my creases
Stories told
I am fading
Colours old

Take care
Paper red
Don't share
Secrets said

My colours run
I come undone
A soggy mess
Of pulp at best

I trust you
My fragile heart
Take care
I rip apart

Pages torn
Like snow
Confetti pieces
I'm blown

Fold me up
Keep me safe
Tucked away
For keep sakes

Hex

Came in Like a storm And made me fall. Head over heels. Called a name Like that of a doll, And can never seem To not know it all. You aren't good For me, Not bad either. What else but a hex.

If I Could Choose What My Heart Was Made Of

I'd choose diamonds so no-one could break it. Or gold so it would always be guarded. Maybe balloons, when it's big I'd be generous. Or elastic so I'd never be torn.

Beauty

beauty is the beast. upon our souls and hearts it feasts. it makes us blind to itself. behind innocent smiles it hides in stealth. yet in every place where beauty lies.

Disappointment's In The Sky

I've heard somewhere over the rainbow, Way way up high, There's another land so beautiful Holding court in the sky. I heard at the rainbow's end There's a pot of gold to be had.

I Am Still Water

I am still water. S o f t as the breeze. Gloss upon l i p s. Drifting with ease. My surface is a mirror. S e e your reflection. Supple, untouchable s k i n. Iron complexion. Y o u are the pebble.
