Someone like you.

*SOMEONE LIKE ME*

*_...I wish you'll find someone like me but of such, an imaginary one..._*

With you, I fell,
Ignoring spikes,
Sharps and edges,
Enamoured 'wards.
But with you, I fell,
In love, at cost,

At cost of shatters.
A smooth operator,
Me? In hope, In all,
Bringing you roses,
Telling you it's red,
Making you watch -
The sky, in comparison,
To violets and blue.
In opti' such beaut',
I sense to send,in trans,
Like signals to my cardiac,
Towards paves and path,
To an old abandoned space,
With webs, dirts, pieces,
Your new home in me.

*_Yet..._*
My mind halted trust,
In thought of my kind -
playing roles of sweetness,
Solomonic roles like me,
Then you smile, accepting all,
Causing unexplainable pain,
With an unfelt turbulence.

*_Genesis of  bricks and Jericho between us..._*
Before I'll go far away,
I'll bestow upon -
Upon you, so much love,
That when I'm gone,
You'll still have enough,
You'll still have nothing,
Better than my presence.

I wish you'll find someone,
A Kind like me, a fool for love,
A being who enjoys anguish,
Like cold springs, like rain,
Like the new hell I made,
I would have, but of such,
An imaginary one, you'd not.

*_Even my shadow won't stay behind to love you as much as I do..._*

With you; I fell heads over heels.
While you signed autographs-
For every cute thing.
With you, I fell so deep in,
I wish I didn’t care but I do,
I know when you write -
About any girl, then she is true.

With you, I couldn’t pretend.
I take flowers you leave beside,
After planting kisses on my skull.

With you, I am scared,
I think I am loved less,
Even as I love you with my best.
With you, I try to cover my flaws,
My insecurities and hurts.
With you, I will lose myself,
With you, I will find everything,
Everything looking less.

*with you, my soul would be pierced by voices in my head*
