Jade Leven Poems

everything has to have a beginning
and everything has to have an end
I struggle to keep my heart open
something always closes it again
...

it was late and you should have been heading home
but there was something you both just had to know
a feeling that shouldn't exist, but you followed it's beckoning call
forbidden love, you found out, has the sweetest taste of all
...

please let me remind you why I'm still here
it's not because I can't live without you
it's because I still care about you
even though we've changed so much this year
...

at your window at eleven-thirty
tapping lightly
heart full of love, heartbeat pace
increasing slightly
...

thinking deeply
I don't want to talk
staring at the cracks
in the sidewalk
...

go on and get changed into your dress
make them think for one second that you're at your best
you have high chances of fooling their eyes
forget it... you'll never fool their minds
...

everybody's doing wrong
I wish I wanted to go along
...

so clearly I remember
that radiant sunset
...

shock

it seems like there should have been a scream
or at least an echo
...

you are everything

reason and love at the same time
honesty and acceptance at the same time
...
