Exquisite



You are an exquisite little thing, 
You are endeared to everyone, 
Though some are as jealous as can be, 
You never change, 
That’s what makes you so perfect my dear.

Their spitefulness makes you stronger, 
Your hair just seems to grow longer, 
Nothing affects you, 
Their words do not mean a thing.

You charge on regardless, 
I love that you’re fearless, 
A true Viking heart, 
Plus, you’re smart.

Behind that big beautiful smile, 
Is a sadness, 
It is tragic, 
It runs long and far.

I see it in your eyes, 
The sparkle is still dazzling, 
Though the spark never seems quite right, 
As if you have been burned, 
One too many times, 
Life has gotten you down, 
Still, you refuse to frown.

Image Of You

It’s the quietness that gets to me, I know it shrieks the truth, Every situation is replayed a thousand times within my head, If Ive made a mistake, It chills me to the bone, Gnaws at my brain, Makes me feel a little less happy at home. The darkness frightens me, For it allows me to have crystal clear clarity, Every wrong step, I now know the way, Too late for me, I have lost my way. Through all the broken pieces that make up my life, I see haphazardly, A kaleidoscope of whirlwinds, And still... I always see you. Whenever I am in need, Your memory comes to me, Softens every blow, The image of you from long ago, Soothes my torn and worn soul, Allows me to carry on, At least for a little while more. © 2019 MK AC Nevin-Crooks Love Life Poetry

Stars

It's all the little things, That make us who we are, Taking comfort in the sea, Staring at the stars, Long conversations after midnight, Coffee at all hours. We crave laughter that sings in our souls, These are the things that enthral our lives, Ignites our hearts, Our dreams shoot to the stars and back, Makes us understand what life is all about.

Brain

If you have shoes on your feet, Food in your stomach, A roof over your head, Love in your heart, A brain in your head, You are luckier than most. Don't lose hope, You can choose which direction you go, Even if it feels wrong, When you fall, Pick yourself back up off the floor, You know the correct way to go.
