Collection of Poems 2

Here is a second set of poems, I have quite a bit that I've written through the years so hopefully they're not terrible. 

Castle

I'm a castle of words,

with twists and turns

Things to see

Things to hear

You have no interest

in looking around

So when you say you don't get me

don't forget you're the one

unwilling to open the doors.

Flower Child

You can't expect a flower child

to keep their heads out of the clouds

We're rooted to the ground

So we spend our days

always looking up

without the sun

we cannot grow.

Love

Your hand on my cheek

your forehead touching mine

Gently picking me up from the couch

and carrying me to bed

Brushing my hair behind my ear

When I search your eyes

asking if you love me

they seem to say "How could I not"

Artist

I create many things

None of them spectacular

but when I stop

its like the world around me crashes

Struggling to make its way out

When I begin again

I can suddenly breathe

Everything in my chest

pours out and dances across the room
