The Reason Oysters Make Pearls

If there are plenty of fish in the sea,
I've found the greatest catch,
A hole covering seventy percent of my heart,
And she has just the right scales to patch,
It is for her that oysters make pearls,
Because she is too good for gold,
Even the devil couldn't outdo her,
So to she his soul was sold,
The song of the whale can't be translated,
Because the language is mostly dead,
But to the best of my knowledge,
They sing she needs a crown on her head,
The moon reflects right off the water,
For her just as a spotlight,
Because even when the land goes dark,
The world still wants her in sight,
Ships wreck to furnish her waters,
Bringing beauty to her sandy floor,
Cannot be caught because to the fishermen,
She is the ultimate lure,
She rules the sea along with my world,
Releasing her toxic fish love potion,
Only few know the truth that she not the moon,
Is the cause of the waves in the ocean.

Inferred

Whether a pad or a computer screen I hide behind my writing,
Because the piercing power of my words is all I need to use for fighting,
I can extinguish your existence without moving from this chair,
You may say that I'm afraid but I honestly don't care,
I can impale you with a metaphor or bruise you with a verb,
Using just my words I can kick you to the curb,
I can be fearless and faceless a mystery on a page,
Giving you a longing for compassion but only showing rage,
Maybe I'm a coward but at least I have my words,
It's my job to send a message I wonder what you will infer.

Let Me Tell You

You turn me into a man without a mouth,
I have so much to say but not a single word comes out,
I wish I knew just how you felt I don't like to play this game,
I know that whether it's yes or no nothing will be the same,
Please let me look you in the eyes and tell you how I feel,
When you feel my heart explode you'll know that it's all real,
I want to take you by the hand and let our souls connect as one,
Feelings bursting inside of us unaware of what's begun,
Just let my words ignite the flame that could burn forever more,
Because there's no one else who's made me feel like this before.

Blinded By Beauty

I am blinded by the beauty that enchants my existence,
I tell my lids to shield my eyes but they have too much persistence,
I could relinquish my sight but still I'd feel all the beauty's presence,
I'm overwhelmed by my surroundings which all contain a gorgeous essence,
It's warm outside but I'm always cold cause of the constant shiver down my spine,
Because everywhere I go I'm only surrounded by divine,
Since I first met you Everywhere I go I can only see beauty,
I guess there's something special about you just look what you do to me.

The Beach Is She

Her gorgeous sandy eyes remind me of the beach in spring,
I swear that she is a queen and I wish I were her king,
Her hair flows like the waves that crash on that very shore,
I've been poisoned by the world and I believe she is the cure,
Laughing like the seagulls call floating above the sea,
A smile so immaculate I wish that it was just for me,
A voice that makes me feel so calm just like the rocking of the water,
They say there's countless fish in the sea but I only wish I caught her.

Good Bye Invisible Man

Good bye to the invisible man who no one gave a chance,
Hello to the new one and his fantastic new romance,
With the world he's in love and she loves him back,
He has no worries because it seems there's nothing that they lack,
A smile more permanent than the crescent moon is imprinted on his face,
On a head that once hung weighed down by so much disgrace,
A step that has more pep than an entire marching band,
And a persona that screams everything except of course for bland,
A new start try number two the second chance to prove,
That there is such a thing as the man who not a single soul can move.

Your Name Lives On

Even though you are now gone,
Your name won't be forgotten you will live on,
Through things you said that are engraved in our brains,
And lessons you taught us through all your joys and pains,
Your laugh that still echoes even though you have been silenced,
And your heart that still loves after all your internal violence,
Through your eyes that stay shut but through the lids they gleam,
And your smile which even though underground still can be seen,
Through the signs which you sent me every single day,
Telling me that the love we share never will decay,
You're legacy will live on and I know that you'll be proud,
You'll watch and smile up above from the comfort of your cloud.

Time Is Stopped

The clock is literally frozen this isn't a metaphor it's really stopped,
I said I'd hold my breath until this minute ends and now a few of my veins have popped,
I'm stuck sitting here between seconds forty-five and forty-six,
Wondering if the whole world is frozen too just like this,
Waiting for it to snap back on and zoom to the exact time,
Hoping that the second hand and the twelve form a perfect line,
Listening for the sound of a bell or for my teacher to say goodbye,
But nothing happens because time is stopped and in this moment I'll forever lie.
