Poetry

Forever Rose: Free Verse

Walking alongside the waves

Feelings the winds, gentle breeze

No longer do we feel like slaves

We can finally be at ease

Laying in a field of roses

The scent bringing you peace

All those bad memories close

And you are now released

Rain hits your skin

He comforts you

He’ll bring his hand down your chin

Now you know what’s true

Nothing ever dies

Unless you lose hope

When I’m with you, all I see is blue skies

But I’m a rose

I need to know

If you’ll keep me until we’re old

Or will I travel the unknown, alone

Love is Patient: Cliche

Once upon a time

There was a lonely heart

People tell me

There are plenty of fish in the sea

Could being alone ever make me happy

Then I see you

It’s love at first sight

I didn’t think

Love comes when you least expect it

Before I met you

My heart was broken like glass

But time heals wounds

I guess you can say,

Everything happens for a reason

I’m scared of losing you

Love is patient

Love is blind

Maybe we’re opposites

But opposites attract
