This is All About YouThis Is All About You:
Most people giving you advice, might take a quote from a book
Most people giving you advice, have never had a real look
So from someone who's been watching, let me lay my heart bare
I want to show you all the special things, about the girl for whom I care
She always does her very best, no matter how tough the task
Even when she's struggling, she puts on a brave mask
She's always trying to learn new things, just for a chance to make you proud
She can be a little bit quiet, but I think that's better than being loud
She's not the very best in sports, I know she can be kind of a klutz
But she smiles and goes on anyway, now that takes a lot of guts...
She gets embarassed pretty easily and gets far too nervous to talk
But I know she'd like it if we held hands, whenever we went for a walk
She doesn't need a lot of pretty things, she just wants someone who cares
I bet she'd like to have someone, whom she knew would always be there
I remember when she tried to cook

I remember when she tried to cook...yeah that first time was really bad
Burnt toast and scrambled shells...man that was really sad
But you know she practiced every day, because she wanted to give you a box
That was full of all your favourite things, I guess that must have rocked
But in the end she never got to you and so I think I'll take this chance
To steal this lovely lady's heart if she'd simply spare me a glance
So tick your answer:
[] Yes
[] No
[] I just met you and this is crazy, but if I made you laugh then call me maybe?

Author's Comment:
Alright so, I'm a dark poet...in general...in fact the next pieces I'm preparing are 'Whispering to Lucifer' and 'Lamb of God'. Well those are the tentative titles.
But anyway, the point I want to make is this. Even if we are dark, there are times when we should smile and be happy and enjoy ourselves. So amidst the slew of dark emotions I'm seeing being constantly thrown head-first onto DA, I thought I would try to release a nice romantic piece, but...
IT FAILED DESU! I'M TERRIBLE AT ROMANCE!
So in the end, I turned it around using the one-line format and switched it up into sort of a cheesy comical love-poem which I would use if I were friendzoned around 6 years ago (when I was 16). Unfortunately now my style is very different and I'm very straight forward about things like love
Anyway, enjooooy the cuteness...or the fail...whichever you like best xD.

no one told her to run

she doesn't know
will never come

Do you remember when we were younger?
The days were brighter.
The world was simpler.
Everything that mattered made sense.
How have things changed so much?
Do you remember those two little girls?

When I am Dead, my Dearest - Christina Georgina Rosetti
Suggested by Inanisvoid (https://www.deviantart.com/inanisvoid)
When I am dead, my dearest,
Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head,
Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember,
And if t

We met, hand to hand,
We clasped hands close and fast,
As close as oak and ivy stand;
But it is past:
Come day, come night, day comes at last.
We loosed hand from hand,
We parted face from face;
