Theater Of life
Theater Of Life We met as strangers stranded in the park, Lonely as the night - Wandering in wonder, will the train surface? 1:35am she thought to provide me warmth Open arms, I drowned beneath her chest. We sang, imitating the birds in the far away forest, The wind sang along in uniformity, blended we thought! Utopia was now newly found home,...

SELF-INFLICTED WOUND
Like a storm trapped in her chest she moved in circles footsteps restless heart pounding louder than thought. She had lived inside a lie vowed to love through anything clung to promises already crumbling made peace with pain to feel something. When dawn rose, it lit the truth the smiles were masks the kisses rehearsed, and yet, she stayed not for love, but for the hope...

Misty clouded heart
Misty clouds fill my eyes, After you stabbed my heart, With a blade forged in hate. Pain oozes out like blood, But neither red nor caked – Yet it outlives all thought. Contest Name: Some Kind Of Misty Poetry ...

How Is It Possible?
I want to see him as someone who did me wrong... in order to let him go. I want to no longer love him at all and just see his true colours as brightly as they show. Put up a wall, draw a line in the sand. Let go of his hand. And see him...

Alone in a sentimental...

**Ginger Shots** Today, of all days, I find myself dividing my tears into sections. With each moment, each tear, and each snuffle I make, the paper tissues crumble, showing signs of the mishaps in life that surely cannot be mended. Yesterday was your birthday, and today is my revelation about life—my life. Lately, it seems I’ve...

Bestfriend
I want this loneliness to end, I need a bestfriend, I'm tired, I'm lost, Where do I run to When I need to cry? You know, the water droplets that come out of eyes When your heart is heavy like a Bag full of wet cotton, That ache worse than a grazed knee, Where do I run to? Who do I run to? I'm lost, In an...

You told me you could never leave You told me you would never say goodbye You told me you never wanted to be free But you told me a lie—just another goodbye Your words were empty, your promises all broken You had me believing, but now I just cry Your ‘I love yous’ were just lies you told” Trying to forget but...

To the moon and back
So far from you yet I reach out like you were right here. Nothing shined brighter than you not even the sun. And as bright as you are I still lost you, yet sparks brought me back to you but when I returned I was too late. You shined so bright you became the moon to...

Ghosted
They say it’ll pass it’ll get better the longer it lasts They say what’s done is done but i don’t feel like i’ve won You took my heart tore it, broke it, till it fell apart Now you play the victim the hole you created, i sit in I don’t want to become the monster i’ve come from Obsessed with yourself, with...

Homesick
They say home is where the heart is But you have flown across an ocean You're something I'm blessed to miss We will make it through all of the commotion But when I come home, I'm never letting you go When you're back in my arms, I'll be home again I know A year from home is a lot, my dear I'm...

My Heart
There's a hole in my chest My heart's flown away My eyes tire from crying and crave rest The hole burns all day My world's gone sideways, now at a slant I am missing my heart But it stays with you while I can't The pain leaves a flavor sour and tart The feeling of a missing piece of me Burns less than that...
