Unbroken Heart

I have no heart, just a hole.

Empty and just as black as coal.

Did I ever have a heart?

I think I did, back at the start.

I gave it out to many guys,

Feeling happy like I could fly.

Each one that left, I felt blue.

There was only one thing I could do.

I cut my heart out of my chest.

I felt like that was for the best.

I no longer felt so sad.

But neither did I feel glad.

Then he appeared within my sight.

And filled the empty hole with light.

Bright blue eyes, golden hair.

Once again, I began to care.

He let me finally feel,

That my broken heart could heal.

Falling

Are we falling in love or falling apart?

Let me know so I can tell my heart.

One touch from you makes my heart race,

But too soon there’s a tear on my face.

With you, there’s a lot of ups and downs,

A million smiles, a billion frowns.

I’m not sure how much I can take,

How many times can one heart break?

I love you more than I can say,

But I’m not sure if you’ll stay.

Please tell me and tell my tender heart,

Are we falling in love or falling apart?

Love is Love

His loving touch warms my skin.

This is love, it is not sin.

People hate that we are gay.

I wish that they’d just go away.

We are happy, can’t they see?

Can’t they just let us be?

Love is love, it is true.

But some just don’t have a clue.

Why do they bother us?

Why must they cause a fuss?

Religion is just the ruse

that the haters like to use.

They would hate us anyway,

just because we are gay.

They will never make us split.

In my hand, his does fit.

A look from him and I do swoon.

I would bring him the shining moon.

No matter what they try to do,

I’ll still tell him, “I love you!”

Love Has No Gender

Love has no gender, no reason or rhyme.

Love is just love, it is not a crime.

Don’t let bullies or bigots ruin your life.

If you’re a girl, you can have a wife.

Boys can love boys, yes, it is true,

And don’t forget transgenders, they matter, too.

There are more options than I can name,

No two people are exactly the same.

Love is love, remember that’s true,

Keep your heart open and love will find you.

First Love

The enchanting touch of first love,

his hand fits yours just like a glove.

Though youthful fire ignited the flame,

you both know that this is no game.

The passion that you feel is so real,

and you cherish each moment that you steal.

You yearn for more than just a kiss,

imagining faraway days of wedded bliss.

You melt beneath his tender touch,

you know you love him oh so much.

Some say that you’re young and you should roam,

But in his arms, you know you’ve found home.

Happy in Love

His dark eyes look at me,

My soul is no longer free.

His shy smile melts my will,

His touch gives me chills.

His sweet voice is just like a song,

And my love for him is strong.

His arms wrap around me tight,

Letting me know all is right.

This guy and I combine as one,

Happy in love ‘til our days are done.

The Way You Look at Me

I can see by the way you look at me,

That our love is not what you see.

I no longer believe your pretty lies,

When I see no love held in your eyes.

I would still get the moon for you,

To know you wouldn’t, makes me blue.

You break my heart every day,

But it breaks worse to go away.

I’m not strong enough to walk out the door,

Knowing it would be forevermore.

Your heart has moved on from me,

I guess it’s time to set you free.

I’ll always remember the love we had,

I’ll cherish the good and forgive the bad.

The Countdown

Ten minutes in, I felt it start.

Nine minutes later, you owned my heart.

Eight weeks gone by, we succumb to desire.

Seventh Heaven, your kisses like fire.

Six more months, I ask you to be mine.

Five minutes of crying, you said yes. Divine!

Four weeks of planning, then comes the day.

Three hours later, and we’re on our way.

Two hearts combined by the exchanging of rings.

One lifetime full of all that love brings.

End of Darkness

The darkness grips my very soul,

my heart just a blackened hole.

Even in the brightest light,

darkness wins every fight.

All the thoughts that fill my head:

stress, worry, and anxious dread.

Surrounded by many a friendly face,

I still feel alone and out of place.

I don’t know what to do

to stop feeling so blue.

Then you’re there, a light in my dark,

and there’s the start of a tiny spark.

The spark grows day by day,

and I hope you’ll always stay.

My sad heart begins to heal,

and I start to finally feel

more than just worry and dread,

happy thoughts invade my head.

You chased the darkness from my soul,

and made my heart completely whole.
