Fallen Petals

This flower grew alone,
One among the millions,
Even if surrounded by stone,
She doesn't care being lone.

Maybe words can cover her,
Mask up her feelings inside,
Maybe words will expose her,
Show all the feelings she hides.

All her hopes and dreams,
Everything torn apart at the seams,
Never one to have believed,
A better day will be lived.

The Boy With Stars In His Eyes

Once there was a light,
A small bright light,
It shone for the boy
With stars in his eyes -

Little did he know,
He had a such a long way to go,
That people coveted him though
He never really got to know -

Things panned out,
It seemed make-believe,
He started finding out
Things weren't what it seemed -

He went away a while,
To hide and gain respite,
But he found more,
Somethings he had been looking for -

He wasn't sure of his desire,
He wasn't sure of the need,
How does one choose?
Reality or his heart on his sleeve -

Where will he go?
And where will he reach?
This puzzle so nearly complete,
Somewhere good and somewhere
Back to his place with the stars.
