Safety Nets

He took me on a roller-coaster ride
And just when we reached the top
He jumped the carriage
Leaving me alone and hanging
From the highest point

She came by then
And put a stop to the whining self pity
If he can jump she said, so can you
So, I listened. I jumped. I flew into friendship
And I have never flown higher

Eye of the beholder

I wish you could see
What a picture you make for me
Perfection in your blemishes
Beauty in chaos

A beaming blossom
Minus a petal or two
Radiant with colour
Emotions of every hue

You are joy
You are power
Incomplete yet whole
My flawed flower.
