rose

at any stage —
a rose strikes beauty

light

I envy the sun —
for it always rises

strength

I admire women
who could've turned
cold after everything
they've been through
but still choose love anyway

there's strength in that

eyes

the beauty of a woman
is seen in her eyes
because that is the doorway
to her heart, the place where love resides

heart

I wonder if the cracks
in my heart
are glued with liquid gold
or strung together
like pieces of clothes
on a drying line

you

before you —
I used to drown in my sadness
never letting anyone close enough
to touch me,
now I drown in you

heart

I wish you knew —
when you hold me,
you're holding my heart too
