Tears will flow

Forever isn't long enough
just a minute far too short
there's nothing in the middle
nothing between us

I pay the price
for a beautiful smile
a sincere one I can't afford

The birds are still singing
but it's not meant for us

nothing is certain when everything
is always the same
like your love is nothing new
but still unpredictable

I'm scared
the sun will follow after the moon
for now
but you never know about tomorrow

Without my hate
your love won't exist
nothing is as contrary as it seems

Outside it is cold
but you light a fire in my heart

I won't drift away
I'll only fly
grab the stars
and make them fall

Then I make a thousand wishes
and I tell you all about them

You laugh and I do, too
but inside everything flows
salt tears and boiling blood

Laugh or cry
cry or laugh
the choice is hard
'cause they are not that different

I look into your eyes
and wonder if your laughing
could be crying, as well

Tears will flow,
just not tonight...

Author notes

Hey! I wrote this poem at night... I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking of more lines and I was afraid that I would forget them, so I had to turn on the light every time and write down what I was thinking off... This one is just about life and love and maybe hate, too... I can't really tell you why I wrote it... I didn't really do it on purpose, and eventually I was getting very enoyed with it, because I just wanted to sleep...

Well, that's it I guess...

Love Lily

    I liked this, it is very emotional and it is different from any poems I've read before. The structure is nice and you did a great job! Good luck in the contests!
