Love
It’s everywhere
There’s no escape from it,
It’s like disease
We all catch it some day,
Can cause people to lose their minds but also
Die.
Love is everywhere.
Some are lucky and blessed
And others are unfortunate and cursed.
We don’t know when it comes or goes.
It feels like heaven when it comes
But like hell when it goes.
No one is safe from love.
Love is amazing when is felt and touched
But hate comes and ruins it.
Love never gives up
And
Lives on and on
And never dies.
Love is wonderful and full of surprises.
Love is magical and happiness.
Love is love.
Girl in Black
No one knows who she is
She never talks or speaks or says a word
She has a blank stare on her face
Like she saw a ghost.
She is a ghost; her skin pale.
Wearing black is all she wears
No color or emotions is there to show.
Until one day she wore not black
But white.
She was the girl in white.
Having a smile on her face
And showing her emotions through colors
The girl in black was gone
Although deep down she had scars
No one knew she was hurt
She smiled through the pain and regrets
She was the girl in black scarred for life
Although she didn’t wear black no more
She will be the girl in black.
