Practicing Poetess Poems

It was his Uncle's funeral
The young boy went to the viewing.
As stony-faced adults filed past,
There was some trouble brewing.
...

It hasn't even been a year
Since my heart was badly broken
And all the words I longed to say
Were put to rest, unspoken
...

Thoughtless words, blurted in haste
Can pierce like a bullet, laying waste
The soul and body within their range
And devastate; I think it strange
...

I can't stop thinking 'bout you
No matter what I do
Day or night, one thing is true
Don'cha know, I'm crazy 'bout you!
...

How can there be an 'us', when half is gone?
And there is no light with the dawn
I find it hard to carry on
...

It begins with the eyes
In locked gaze,
Moves to a soft kiss
Then, a longer one.
...

I don't want a cookie-cutter man
The little flaws are what give character
And personality
...

The feeling of love is euphoric
You're walking on clouds in the sky
A powerful rush of emotions
Produces the ultimate high
...

I was not born
With my Mother's 'green thumb'
The apple fell far
From the tree, on that one!
...
