Thanks For Reading!

Thanks for Reading!

Hello, hello!

Today my blog reached 50 followers! This is (very) exciting for me, and I wanted to thank you all for taking the time to read my poems and choosing to stick around for more. (Special thanks to @poetryportal and @writerscreed for the reblogs and mentions, which helped me in reaching a larger audience!)

To celebrate, I posted three poems. I hope that you like them! Also, my asks are open (but I prefer obscure asks if it's something about me)!

I'll keep writing, and I hope that you'll keep reading!

Thanks again!

Poem: Unspoken Lines #5

A Haiku // The One about Your Eyes

“I like you best as

You are tonight, eyes glowing

Like the stars above”

Poem: Thunder

A Haiku

Rumble and roll are

Words we use to try to calm

The sky as it screams.

Poem: Moving Mountains

You said you’d move mountains for me

Because you thought it was what I wanted to hear –

But I didn’t need you to fix my problems,

As you were so keen to try to do;

You were becoming a mountain blocking my path,

And all I wanted was for you to move.

Poem: Cotton Candy

I’ll dream of you

In navy blue

Like you wore on that late spring night

When the festival light

Of fireworks bright

Was reflected back by your wide eyes.

I’ll sing to you of the world as I knew it

Amid the neon boom

That pounded in my ears.

It was the same night that I knew I loved you,

Cotton candy caught in my curls

Like the woven thread

Of my fingers intertwined with yours,

When I stood close enough to you

That I thought I could hear

The navy blue neon boom

Of your heartbeat matching mine.

Poem: Bouquet

I’ll sow the seeds of love

And treat them tenderly

In hopes that flowers

Of affection will bloom

In your heart someday,

And that you’ll feel inclined

To gather them into a bouquet

That makes you think of me.
