They say you spend your whole life rewriting the first poem you ever loved. With you, my dear, you were my first poem. I remember the way I said I loved you, I remember the way you shrugged. The way my heart was stolen.
I’m hollow without you, a lock with no key. You’re my canteen when I’m on a quest. Keyboards missing their keys is you without me.   In your absence life is flavorless, water without tea.
I turned around, and my eyes hit yours.

Flower then I will be a Bee Comes to you everyday  Bird then I will be the wild

You tell me you love me, Yet you treat me like dirt. Everything is a game with You; and you play with my heart.   It gets me to wonder, It gets me to wonder.   The way we share smiles,
If I knew the sun wouldn’t come up tomorrowI’d call you and tell you I miss you;I would admit to all the times I should have just laid there in your arms.

Hi you, Van this is. I love swimming, don’t you do. Also I love random stuff Like poem-ing while cooking Like screaming while tasting Cause it tastes so good Asian food, a healthy way.
