You and I are what's left of the Big Bang
All else has been smashed together again
Mixed and abhorred until it no longer resembles the
Stardust from which it was made
But you, you, you, you
Brain running a thousand miles a minute
Thoughts about you
Thoughts about friends
Thoughts of sadness
Thoughts of anxiety
You are the most thought of
You rule every other thought
Our love was like a blue jay in the snow,
as cool and soft as your cheek pressed to mine.
Our love was only ours, no one could know
how our entwined hearts beat to the same time.
Working on assumptions sucksyou're feeling this, tell meyou don't feel this, tell meyou want this, tell meyou don't want this, tell mejust tell me
You smell sweet
like something i want to touch
I see you, they don't
but you don't understand that.
I wish you did
you are warm and rosy in my thoughts
i will be very honest here,
I always had a problem with liking people
My list of crushes has five names and I can still name all of them off the top of my head
I was told I'm too picky and that’s why I'm still single
Calloused hands
Strings of Gold
In three bands
(or so I’m told)
Jet Black Studs
Turquoise Hair
A conversation between two people about a boy she’ll never know:
what is it that you like about him?
like the one key detail that separates
him from the rest
Baby you looked like heaven, and felt like hell.
I was just another girl who fell under your spell.
Your eyes a clear watery blue
anyone who saw them would fall in love too.
sometimes i write Letters
Letters that will never be given
Letters that will never truly live
Letters that will be hidden
or perhaps just thrown away
Letters that will be read by no person but me
I wish I could stop.
It’s getting too overwhelming.
This uncertainty about where I really stand with you is getting old.
It’s consuming my thoughts and I hate it.
I hate how much I want you to be mine.
Hope, are you a friend?Are you my worst foe?Around you my life bends,But you always let me go.I sit around hoping for some sun,In the middle of a thunderstorm,I hope for some fun,
Miraculously magical, some people may appear,
But no one's near as noteworthy when their smoke and mirrors clear.
Everyone has their own kind of magic, and it's obvious in you,
I haven't forgotten the girl whose name no one knew.
She never let herself be
The person people didn't see,
But she never was reason for rumors either.
She only did what made her content.
I think about you more than I should
And if I knew how to make it end,
I don’t know that I would
I hear your voice in the wind
You’re a sweet addiction
I try to fight it,
But I always give in
His face plasters against the marble,
Staining everything I love into ashes
Of things I can no longer touch with my happiness.
The shadow he emits wraps around my head
In more ways than the rope of a noose could.
There are thousands of wordsI could say to youThousands of words that have crossed my mindWords that stay bottled insideWords that I try desperately to hideTo ignoreI see you passing by
I thought I knew how I feltThought i had dealt with these old feelingsNow they got me reeling
I thought I knew who to loveWhere my heart would lead meNow they make me doubt who to be
Some daySome wayI'll find a way to say these things I keep insideFind a way to tell you what is on my mindOne of these days I'll find the words insideFind a way to express these things I feel for you
passing looksI'll throw my head in a bookto make you believethat perhaps, I wasn't starringeach thrown glanceseems a little more daring.
I have these feelings for you
I don't know what to do
Here, take them back
Please and thank you.
Everytime I look at you,
I remember my entire history,
With and without you.
Your face shines so bright,
And I am forced to squint,
As I walk past him my cheeks turn red,
I say hello but he ignores it instead
I wonder how we would cuddle in his bed
Or how his hand would fit in mine,
My heart is in a bind.
Here I sit all alone
No one to talk to
No one to relate to
Wishing that one day I won't have to feel sad
One day, maybe I'll find someone to love me
Or just maybe be alone forever.
This is the scripture
Of the fallen souls,
Locked away in the chaotic darkness.
This is the story of
Wayward and Vagrant bodies,
3:22 and it's not you lying next to me
you're probably sleeping just fine.
Eyes just barely closed and
fingertips inches away.
Soft snores telling dreams I wish to be in.
But when I open my eyes
I'm starting to feel like hearts are anchors
and mine is rushing to the ground.
Only I don't want to stay here,
stranded under the beating sun.
So tell me how to jump
A stab in the heart from the blade you called love
You said sweet things to my face then turn around and switched up
Whats real & whats fake? In this time I couldn't tell
Strong
That's what everyone calls me
Like it's my name
Like it's my filter
They say I don't have to be
But it's my only lifeline
Strong
If I don't be it, if I don't use it
The smell of smoke lingers in the air
Blowing towards the crack longing for freedom
to escape its beholder
I am the smoke looking for a place to go
To grow.
I can fly with the wind and
I have memorized all the break up songs
Cried a thousand times
Remembered your beautiful eyes and face
But…
The memory of what’s behind it
Breaks me up every time
I want to say I love you
DreamsOf regret and painRattle around in my head--Abandoned thoughts,And untouched memoriesooze from my sleep,And into my ear--Spilling onto my pillowand leaving a stain
Your eyes are bright
So full of life
Your touch is warm
Like a radiant beam of light
I dream of you often
Of holding you tight in my arms
When I'm around you I'm speechless
Soft words, sweet
Soft hands, warm
Leaves me giddy, breathless
Innocent and never knowing
loving, falling hard...
and you
ever knowing, sweet nothing
to you
I am nothing
The throbbing of my heart tells me that I’m excited
for the prospect of a new friend
or could he be
more?
There are no butterflies
There are sly smiles and pregnant pauses
How was it so easy to change on me
We use to be so deeply in love
That when you were sad,
I cried
When I was hot ,
You Sweated
When i thought,
You reacted
If you had an enemy
Not going to let another day pass me byEven though my hair maybe a messAnd I'm not going to lieI don't always pass the test
But I'm going to let the world know that I'm flawless
A smile hinted at her lips
She watched her beloved from afar
He was in her thoughts, never ceasing
Should she dare be bold?
Should she let her secrets run free?
Yes, courage sweeps her away.
Me and You
I was your love and you were my babe
Sounds cliche and cheesy but why not hun
Just a couple of kids who secretely liked the other for years
But this was not known until recent
The autumn leaves fall from the trees,
crisp and bright.
The cold comes,
disguised with stealth.
My heart grows louder
as the days grow shorter,
proclaiming its objective
his blue eyes were full of lies
the way he held me was the way he had held many before me
the word he said dripped with venom
he was the snake himself
I walked right into his clutching trap
Love won't you come back, and be my best friend, won't you please give me your heart and soul once again, won't you whisper your sweet song and stand by my side, won't you be my fair maiden, my queen and my bride, won't you give me your hand as w
What do I need ?
I need you to say you love me too
And i need my restless infatuation to mean something
Oh pandemonium that cast such a silence
What tranquility you graced me with,
In the nights light of quaint eternity that our Souls touched
Thoughts of utterance quaked the heart
If it were to happen that I fall in love with you
know that I'll love you with passion and disgust.
You hurt me more than I hurt myself darling.
pain fills my chest
as I remember when you layed on my breasts
It kills me to walk this way,
the way we went when you were bae.
For 3 years I called you mine.
I'm not scared of relationships,
I want a relationship.
I want to hold someone's hand while they drive down an open road.
I want to kiss their forehead when they feel sick.
its hard letting go of something you've been struggling to hold onto.
especially when its hurt you more than it has helped you.
but it'll hit you one day when you're holding someone else's hand while they're driving,
when he spotted the abandoned clothesline he knew it would be
a safe place to hang his drenched fabrics to dry
(safety was always his priority; practical thinkers are
Well I just wanted you to know that I was here
I am here
I am here like that tooth brush you grab every morning
Or when you close your eyes and darkness meets you instantly
I am here.
As I look at them, a prequel unfolds
In this aura colorblindness persists
But look closer and the lines seem to bold
The two identical souls coexist
As time goes on, the story does begin
If my words were to not have a filter on them then I would say what's truly on my mind. I would speak words that come from my soul. I would let people know how I feel, I would let them know the words I should have said that are now too late to
Me without a filter.Sad and cold as winterHappy seems so UnfamiliarThink my heart has died and witheredLast time I smiled, i was with her.And now she’s goneLeft me all aloneWhat did I do wrong?
I can walk down the street at night
I can defend myself in a fight
I could be David against Goliath
I could lead a human's rights riot
I can seem careless
and a be a bit fearless

As
I lie wide awake,
I pray to The Lord,
"Please, for my sake,
if the one I love does not love me back,
may your light shine on me before I attack;
myself."
“The family and friends of mine,
I dont love, I dont love...
Friends of mine don't show up all the time,
Still have me in their mind,
Borrow my pain, reimburse cheers,
Tears don't mean sad or pain,
Isn't even flow from wounded heart...
Tears are way to express joy and sad...
Emotion charged when fervently warmed...
In Very sad or Ecstatic joy,
My love has gone away, unfortunately, he swayed.
I know your smart, therefore I need your heart.
I love you
Not only for what you are,
But for what I am,
When I'm with you.
I love you,
Not for what you made of yourself,
But for what...
You are making of me.
Laying in bed
Wanting to be with my boo
Wishing I were dead
Because I cant live without you
My world was full of light,
Until you left, now its dark as night.
You had my heart,
Then you tore it apart.
The biting my nails to the nub while simultaneously fidgeting with the buttons off my cardigan because I can't get enough.
Her heart aches so much that she doesn’t know how she’s going to make it through the night
Without hearing his voice, feeling his touch, without him by her side
Painful shots, routine meds
Breath stopping moments, heart wrenching seconds
We were there, in that moment of time when we were together
Your eyes they doth sparkle.
Your face it doth shine.
and if twas my choice,
I would make you all mine.
but fate whisked you away,
so you could not stay.
but if you could now,
They make the light so something funny, to put that sparkle in his eyes.
they even make your lunch act weird, but you'll call it butterflies.
They make you fall for the cheesiest pick-up lines.
i never really understood what people meant when they said they've loved and they've lost until I realized I loved you so damn much that I lost my
It's 12 am and I'm starting to realize that I literally want no one else but you and I only want to touch and draw on your skin and I only want your hands on me and I only want to comb my fingers through your hair and I only want your lips to e
Thinking, wishing, pondering, pensiveChoosing wrongWishing to knowThe contents of my heartAnd that in yoursWill you complete my soul?If I leave now will you still be thereHow do I decide?
Being with you was full of ups and downs,
The smiles, the laughs, the hugs, kisses were great
To feel, but when I think of how it sounds,
The moral of this story’s, NEVER DATE.
She always loved where the lilies grew
She loved their enchanting fragrance.
The field was like being in the clouds of the sky so blue
The field was where she would happily dance.
There’s this thing called ghost lines
Pieces of poems never to be completed
Floating for a purpose inside your soul
Ghost lines,
Rocky spine, left in the night
fragile skin that reflects the light.
Rocky spine, growing strong
marks that show what went wrong.
Rocky spine, with a smile so bright
eyes that sparkle in the night.
One day you were there
By my side
Hand in hand
Than one day you left
No words were spoken
you
Were
Gone
Waiting for you
Hoping someday
You'll return.
I don't like that there's no mail on Sunday's.
Every day you go to your mailbox
Finding magazines and letters and everything in between.
A dark night
A house at the end of the road
Shades pulled and door closed
What lies inside the lonely home?
A poor boy all alone
When the sun resurrects
The boy too must show life
The pounding in my head won’t go away
The rush, the high, flying
None of it will go away
The rush, the rush, it’s supposed to end
The night over, the day breaking
--but fuck that why end it early?
Ah, love, you hurt me so,
With your sweet thoughtless words.
They hold so much meaning,
or so I hope,
That blossom honey springs from your mouth
As if from a fountain, a stone Cupid's bubbling lips.
fluttering, flying,
the way it's supposed to be -- feeling alive,
falling...
how you make my stomach jump
I met you a year ago, never thought id feel this way
I look into your eyes, I see love and my heart wants to celebrate
When we first locked eyes that summer afternoon,
You left me, in the most innocent sense, breathless.
I knew that I would fall in love with you
And I thought it was worth the risk.
If she showed me nothing else
Then I guess she was
If she gave it all to me
I guess she was
If it was undeniable
I guess she was
If she was...
What was I
Silly boy, oh silly boy
watch me while I get used like a toy
abused by his words and fade through his actions
how in the hell could this shit have happened ?
You knew I loved you more than anything in this world
If I could, I would give you the world and much more
but instead you couldn't appreciate what you had and
now my heart is so cold and bitter.
This is a mistake
that I have foolishly made.
Pain, I cannot fake,
even try to hide.
This pain I feel twisting and
burning deep inside.
Its odd that the feelings are still there
even after you left
one word reminds me of you and it is like the millions of memories flash through me mind
the pain is unbearable
Thank you for trying to save me.
Thank you for trying to make me love myself,
but as you can clearly see,
I am beyond saving.
I have lived my entire life feeling worthless.
Sitting here alone with you
makes me wish I was yours forever.
Wishing you felt that way too,
Waking up everyday like
man what a dream,
Another image of you
seperated by worlds
It all happened in the blink
of a eye, I fell for you
and everything just seemed right
Waking up every day
like man what a dream,
Another image of you
seperated between worlds.
It all happened in the blink
of an eye, I fell or you
and everything just seemed right.
Someday I will say to youIt was only just a dreamYou told me you will be with mebut it was just a lieSadness in my face-that makes me want to cryI just pretend I don't want you
can you not see that
there is no happy
ending for people like
us
this only ends when
one of us is dead
and the other decides
to move on or
grieve eternally
please dont ask me to
write about our love
or about us at all
because i can only
write poetry
on the things that kill me
and if you want a
poem from me
You didn't tell me you
loved me
in so many words
but in the way you
looked at me
and held me
you didn't tell me
goodbye
in so many words
Fragile as the flight of a butterfly,Is this love that lives in constant fear.Ready to fight for its desires
I still catch myself,
from time to time,
wanting to call you,
or contact you in some way,
and tell you all about my year,
or even something as simple as the weather,
I was in love. And you were too.we were together, through and through.but you left me alone, Stranded in an ocean of my tears.it was the end. Of me. Of you. Of us. Of who we were.
Are we just a flower beginig to blom in the warm spring weather ?
Or a leafe changeing its color from green to red?
we are the butteflies in our belly and the glint in my eyes.
man my minds a train wreck so explosive but nobody knows what's going on cuz I show no emotion. I don't feel the need to tell people my problems.simply because my problems are my problems.
My heart was once your home.
Lucky for the girl who have your heart now
Lucky, for she finally captured what was once mine.
Be happy, I know you already are.
I want to be happy for you
Your scent reminds me of blossoms
Your smile is the light of my mood
Possibly seeing myself in your eyes
That swift touch like heavens bliss
Treasuring those senses
For those smell, sight, and touch
When love and hate collide,mixed emotions I couldn’t help but cryConfuses the soul I couldn’t hideAs I faced you that I already bid goodbye
My hand
Reaches out
To try and
Destroy the darkness
And the distance between us
You are so close
Yet
You are so far
away
Please
Don't go
Away
She was beautiful
She was wrapped in a blanket of beauty with a dazzle of sparkle
The sparkle you could see in her eyes when her crush walked by
This dude I met a few weeks ago
mentioned to me the 3 year mark.
Not sure what the fuck he meant by that
He seemed daunted
But the certainty of his tone got to me
"You know....The 3 year mark?"
A dream is wasted,
a hope is a flying dream,
a lie gives false hope,
a bitter love has hurt lies,
a life still goes on.
I like you
but I don’t want you in my head.
Im not used to being controlled,
Im used to being in control.
Hair bright as a summers day
Eyes the color of the ocean
You can see the happiness slip away
hes trapped by an immature devotion.
His soul as warm as a fires flame
has gone cold as ice
I grew and noticed I had no pair
Sent by God to provide care
All ma burdens no one help bare
Of the many Love none was shared.
I feel you running. I feel you hiding.
I feel the love is vanishing away.
Oh why so long in love and hurting.
Oh why just you don't want us stay.
How will I handle you away?
d the ability to get a glance at the figure of the physique under the black veil I've cast upon myself, I applaud.
All eyes on us as we dancedI'm sweating like a sinner in church and I cantMeet your eyesAnd everyone knew what I was going to tell youThey expected smiles and at the end I'd hug you
I remember thinking,
that your blue
deep dark blue eyes
... Could solve anything
Cure
anything
and that your smile...
your pearly white smile
could fix my sadness,
Crawling into bed
Your heart beats against his
Interlocked in an embrace
Two bodies connected, forming one
Puzzle pieces fitting together
Moving in harmony
Paddling to shore
X marks the spot
my heart was stolen when i was weak
im still rising up onto my feet
i was hurt but i grew stronger
won't tolerate this any longer
you drugged me with misconceptions
what exactly were your intentions?
The moment I met you,
My soul knew to stay away from you,
For it knew you'd be the death of me.
Of course, my heart felt what it did
And I suffered the tragic consequence.
You stole my heart,
You stole my mind.
I thought you were different,
Possibly a great find.
This may be true,
Even to this day.
You still hold my heart,
In a painfully beautiful way.
Gaze on me only but for a second, and thus I shall know
That in agonizing uselessness are my feelings of woe.
For when your vision crosses mine
I seek no other but the eyes of thine.
I'll write your name on all of my cigarettes so that more than your words can kill me
Because it's always those closest to us whose words mean the most
So lover I'll keep you in my back pocket in a cardboard carton
When I think of you
sometimes my stomach flips.
Not alwyas in that "good way"
well,
Most of the time is alwyas the good way.
but
I shouldn't feel like this.
How could you love me
But give me that script
Played that role like "you the only girl"
Gave you everything I could
Including my 1st time under the sheets
You never thought you'll get ccaught up
There's regret and remorse then trying to forget and move foward, but all of this time I'm thinking...
I got sent here to learn about
The world and how it messes people up
And how people keep going no matter
What,
how they never give up but at the end of the day.
I stare at you for hours
Died By Love: Broken Heart
He fought through and through
Whether it was the war or the hard struggle of love
In my time of need
would you?
When it's time to grieve
would you?
When I need a shoulder to lean on
would you?
If i said I love you
would you?
If i weren't brave enough
could you?
I remembered why I hate the fall-
late fall, when it starts getting
just cold enough that you tell your mom
to turn the heat on.
I remembered why I get all
choked up when I get too cold-
I know I’m unwanted,
Yet I still try
To find the one
Whom would die
For me and make me feel
The print has faded
From the movie ticket of our first date,
Just as our love has done.
I still think about you
That life alrtering
heart shattering
body shaking
head aching
words spurring
hatred
your whole world's crumbling down
and you just can't take it
that love that you thought
Eventually it gets old
You get tired of arguing just to have a conversation
Your throat is still sore from yelling at the top of your lungs just to make sure your voice is heard
For I would take your hand in a heartbeat,
And run with you through eternity
Amongst the fields of flowing time
Beautifully illuminated amidst our minds
Words whispered in the breeze
Linger even after she can't hear.
The trees ramble on
Shivering and leaning
Love's impression vanishes.
The dejected dreams
Long to be real,
To have been felt.
I met a guy
Thought he was right for me
But then I turn around
And guess what I see,
That he's a player
And that's not what I need
Yet why can't I leave him be?
You.
Me.
Them.
Us.
All different people.
You and me not so much.
We have a love deeper than the oceans and wider than the sky.
The times we had were like shooting stars, passing by.
First impression
Seems to be the best
But why do I find it
So hard to rest
Late night thoughts
On my mind
Its those same thoughts
That take all the time
Is time running out
There are always love that define the beauty of a person. Beauty is not just a person looks it's the way a person personality is.
The rays of heat from the sun on your skin
The thumping of your heart
The weight of his gaze on your skin
Light breaths blowing your bangs
The tickle of eye lashes on your cheak
Bright shadows
and the paradox
of missing a man
who has given
no time
to be missed--Realities and
symptoms of
the many
afflicted with
warmth in their
nature and
I sit here
In a once comforting place
Now haunted by vivid memories
They circle around me
Like vicious banshees
Screaming mistakes and regrets
Love is just some four letter word,
That people use to show how they feel
How can you feel something,
when you don't know love is real?
What is love?
We don't know
The smiles don't stay,
they turn into tears.
Happiness goes away
and I think of the first few years.
Even though they're not for long
the laughs feel so worth it.
Without him it'd feel wrong,
A candle burns flickers of light into my dark room
I am shattered
Keyboard clicks and the tones of a Les Mis song
I am heartbroken
I smell the cool autumn air and dread going to school today
I am scared
Overtime I've come to realize they couldn't be more wrong;
Because in hating you I was weaker but in loving you I was strong.
They said that angels and demons were destined to fly apart,
1
Roses are red
Violets are blue
your curtins are opend
and im watching you
2
Twinkle Twinkle little star
i want to hit you with my car
How many times have I fallen,
Only to fall apon the floor.
How many times have I given my heart,
Only to have someone slam the door.
My heart now covered in scars,
Has grown tougher then is has ever been.
I guess I didn't know how to love
myself.
The things you said you saw...
I always did think you were delusional.
For I am not beautiful,
I am not worthy of
Want.
You were a blessing
Then became a curse.
Where did I go wrong?
Your arms that once brought warmth
Now burn with every touch.
You built me up
Then tore me down
Us sailing in the ocean
Immense pain and depression
Most unbearable and intolerable,
That thoughts of it just kill even more!
Eyes filled with salty tears of sorrow
And pain that clings onto the soul
A charming smile melts a stoic heart,
Magma cools and turns to glass,
The soul fades gray and turns to ash.
The chest grows cold and light falls dim,
Yearning ends and passion fades,
Fear and love doth wane.
Girl
I cant stop myself from thinking about you
I cant even bring myself to talk to you
its kinda hard to concentrate too
your beautys so strong
its got me sick with the flu
I got sick from you
Will you ever notice me?
When I turn away from me?
Change my hair, my body, my animation?
Just to win your admiration.
The way he looks,
The way he smiles,
The way he says my name,
It makes me fall for him,
I'm crushing hard,
He's everything I want,
He is caring,
He is fun,
I said I liked you
&
you said you do too
but youre only you
when they're not around
But that smile & your wink
it's getting to me
Here and there
Lip gloss on there lips
Toned body and curvy hips
They bend down
and i stare longer
than needed
I blush at my faux pas
All the things I coud do
to her
Their wings tickling your sides and fluttering through you.
They kiss you from within and make you feel afloat and nervous.
They spew uncertainty into the air and it hangs in your throat.
There are two
each holds one hand.
The one on the left
has known me the longest
but doesn’t know me that much.
The one on the right
knows a lot about me
but does not know what to do with it.
She moves like a butterfly bounding from flower to flower. Her features are fine-tuned like the keys on a piano. When the sun shines down on her head it reveals a golden halo of hair. Flowers blossom in her presence.
I would like to give you my whole heart, but I can't.
He has some of it, you see.
He cut off a sliver with a paring knife
Oh so long ago.
He doesn't even know it's there,
My greatest companion upon the right,
my angel upon the left.
I in the center.
Alas, if only I had a fetter,
to bind my comrades and I together!
For at the end of our journey,
I've lost the tourney,
