Monsters When you held me The monsters disappeared A single touch Sent them scurrying for fear When we kissed I felt my soul lifted Like a weight had disappeared When we fought The monsters crept in Slowly but surely More and more each day The day you left Was the day they won

Stars There's stars on my ceiling When I was young I'd gaze up at them But now as I'm older With worse eyesight and little time I do not see these stars I wonder if That's want happens when we get old Things fade We don't have time for them anymore

Kiss Me Tonight Kiss me tonight Let me breathe in your scent Kiss me tonight Leaving me panting for breath Kiss me tonight And hold me close Kiss me tonight And you will win this game we play

I Can't Write #poems I really can't write #poems I find them hard to write "4 lines to a verse and make it rhyme!" My teacher always recites Words just don't come easily to me I just begin to stumble People always say "speak up!" When I start to quietly mumble Heaney, Wordsworth, Frost All great poets I know But when it comes to me and writing #poems Words don't easily flow Alas, I am defeated This battle with words is done But look at this, a #poem Written just for fun!

Would You Stay? If I grabbed your hand A told you I loved you Would you stay? If I hadn't been shy and Got your number Would we talk? If I had plucked up the courage To talk to you on the first day Would we be together? If I had kissed you that day And took a chance Would you love me back?
