Simple Love

As sad as this will make me sound, not to mention pathetic and maybe slightly like Bridget Jones, yesterday at about two in the morning I think? ( I don' tend to sleep till around 4) I was just sat in my room sobbing. 
After I had watched 90210 and Glee.
It wasn't so much the show themselves that made me cry, more so what they show. Couples.
Always couples. People being together and despite problems, having relationships.
It was horrible to progress back to the state of feeling alone and the reasoning behind this that I'm ugly. Alone, ugly and crying at two in the morning. Crank out the chocolate and you have the beginning of a chick flick. Looking back, it was a spectacular pity fest. 

The worse thing is though, is that that's what in my head. It's just kind of pushed down under all the stuff. But I do genuinely feel like that. Dearie me. 


Anyway, I know I said I would try to write less whingy, 'romantic pictures' poems but I thought with this reasoning of last night, I was allowed some self indulgence in this one.


Reading it back, this is probably one of the most honest and open poems I've done. 


It's not so much the fact
I need someone 
to complete me 
I don't really want to 
be part of some romantic story
something that completely 
alters history,
I just want something simple.

A hand to hold
someone to grow old (with) 
he can give me his coat
if I get cold 
not to tell me I'm beautiful
but he thinks I am 
to smile before kissing me
to hold me when I'm sad
or hold me whenever
so tight I think he'll never let go
and I will always know
that he's here 
not just for me
but because he wants to be.

Throughout a Day

You'll have to forgive another list poem, I just quite like writing them :)






Faded photographs
hoping to stir memories 
blue sky
no questions as to why,
pages of a book turning
opening potential 
to a whole new place
peanut butter
family
friends
communication
interspersed technology
window pane
always showing
the same frame.

You're a Kite

Happiness,
grab it while it lasts
don't focus on the past
smile
hug
laugh
not just amongst the two
you know
just her and you
include others
be you
please stay with me
sorry
for any change
but please
please
try
I'm the same
stay with me.

Certainty Isn't Easy

I like
you,
I think
I'm not
quite
sure. 


I don't
know if
its real
or something 
different
than before.
