"all i ever need"

tonight i sat on top of the world
with my friend
we were alone on a hilltop
blanketed with the night
we put our arms around eachother and
lay there beneath the stars
just wondering aloud
we shared our problems and got answers
nice answers.
ones we could follow.
we laughed with eachother and
wondered
what the future would be like
i cried a bit, pondering bitterness
but his shoulder was there to cry on
and he pulled me into an embrace
we stayed like that
he whispered into my ear
held me tight
i felt okay
but then i cried because it was
so beautiful
so comforting
in love
i fell in love that night
when he told me i was amazing, beautiful
and that no one could say otherwise
so i looked into his beautiful eyes
and told him
"i love you"
he looked into my eyes
smiled.
then he started to cry.the one who never cries
cried
i embraced him and asked why
"i don't know" he whispered
and it was so wonderful that i cried too
we lay down after a while
i held his hand so tightly
watching the stars
sharing more of our dreams
and we said "i love you" to eachother
and thought only of
love
then i curled up against him
smiling
he softly pressed his lips to mine
so tenderly
it made me feel euphoric
i put my arms around his neck and
didnt want to let go
it felt like he didnt want to let go either
and his lips touching mine told me so
no, never want to let go
because i felt alive, sharing that kiss with him
and i felt so
excited
scared
loved
amazed
and it seemed like forever
but seemed like a second
until our lips parted
then i kissed him again
once for good measure
then i lay my head on his chest and
listened to his heart
i knew that it was beating for me
and mine was beating for him.
looking into my eyes
he stroked my hair
said that we
would be friends
and lovers
forever
and a tear escaped my eye
"this is all i ever need" i said, smiling
he leaned in to me
kissed my lips tenderly
and with my chin cupped in his hands
told me
"you'll never be without it"

"Feelings"

...perfection...
it's all around you, you never have bad days
admiration. seeing
you is better than anything
because you are perfection
itself
everything around you blurrs and slows
as i am caught in a fantasy
flower buds
the sweet scent of rain
and that angelic first kiss
but as your eyes meet mine, the spell is broken
face flushed, i look away
million thoughts cross my mind
all the "what if's" and "should i's"
and i wish will all my young heart
that i knew
what was in your mind
that moment in
frozen time.
and i wish i could make your day better if that is possible, because
you
ARE
perfect
and better would be impossible

and i

with my figure of flaw and
immeasurable shyness
want to love you and
am aware of the unrequition of this love so aching
deep inside
and i'll never forget how i feel
that longing for just one smile
but knowing that you won't
wishing for a blissful embrace
and knowing that it's impossible

i am unworthy
and it's just the cruelty of life
making my heart ache like this
i tell myself that it will be over soon
curled up in a ball in the corner
a bitter sob in my throat
that crumbles the world
it feels like a curse
and i ask

why
does
love
hurt
so
much...
