Would you believe a heart
is the first thing to be formed
within a womb as growth starts,
remain in love and do not depart
from whence you came, pure bliss
that gives being more than a name.

Tears avalanche down hills of cheeks
while a voice is given hands to climb
the penultimate summit in it's peak.

"I don't wanna be with no one else" ,
she screams out as if it were for help, 
not out of danger like in a fire outbreak
where you trapped gasping for breathe
rather the type one inlove shall attempt
to pierce heart for a lover to understand;
in life there's times when nothing matters
other than being with your lover and friend

Special is an understatement,
it can't even tickle the fancy of
gold used to form thee prong
needed to hold a melodic song;
encapturing what is a gemstone
taken to where a proverb belongs.

I used to think
that having it
altogether is key
but than I realized
happiness is what
opens doors for me
