I love you.
You see me as a twit
But I love you,
You hate the rule I make
But I love you.
You want to live away
And I love you.
*
I show you what you need to be,
You see me as a fool.
I will love you when your mood will melt,
When you won't be so mean,
I love you now
and I will
When your age does not end in 'teen!

Hope, Rising
Hope, as rays of sun Burst through the problems and pain, Rises again and again. I wrote this in response to a prompt given on Twitter by Melisa Quigley. @MQuigley1963. She asked that we write a six-word story or a poem in response to this image, so I wrote this little haiku.

Nailed it!
Teenagers scare the living ... Would it be too obvious to say that this is incredibly relatable? :D Well done on this one though. One of my favourites, even if I know the subject it relates to!
Ahhh, teenagers! Now that makes more sense, lol. Awesome poem!
I knew this had to be about teenagers. Lol. Well done.
Oh, yeah! There's one that's relatable, even though it's been ages ago.
I felt every single word. The teenage years are something else!! You summed it all up so well :)
Great perspective with this one.
