Ally Maiste Poem
My thoughts
Chase away my dreams
Now turned to nightmares
Full of screams
When will my life
Come to an end?
Will I be the one to stop it?
Is this all just pretend?
He comes from the shadows
Makes no noise
I let him get to me
I am overjoyed
Will he do
What I cannot?
End my life
Let my body rot?
My smile is full
His hands do not waver
I say a silent goodbye
He is my death-filled
Life saver

Ally Maiste Poem
It
Follows me
With its cold
Breath
And terrifyingly
Graceful
Flight
It
Haunts me
Contaminates
My thoughts
Seeping
Into
My heart
My demon
Never leaves
As
It slowly
Tortures me
Into a never ending spiral
Of insanity

Ally Maiste Poem
Bedroom lights
Match the stars tonight
Fingers tapping
You wondering what’s happening
To you
But what can I do?
Understand and agree
But I can’t make you see
There’s so much more
Than what it seems
Spread this to me
I’ll try to seem strong
Hold you up
As your soul falls
To meet mine
Till I say goodbye

Ally Maiste Poem
Dizziness and heartache
Past, present
Pain, regret
Emptiness overflow
Full of nothing
I just can’t control
Lullabies and sadness
I’m so useless
A numbness addict
To rid me of the pain
Let me get lost some day
Lost in my head, I am insane
Delight and happiness
Too foreign
I just can’t take this
Anymore
Drift away
Watching rainy tears pour

Ally Maiste Poem
My tires
Treading
Into the pavement
Rhythmically
Hitting the lines
Of the sidewalk
Darkness
Surrounds me
A single path
Leading nowhere
Through an abyss
Color
A foreign word
In this vastness
The opposite
Of the world
I used to know
And now the one
I only dream of
Loneliness
Is my biggest enemy
Speaking to myself
So I don’t forget
What a voice
Sounds like
My raspy voice
Covering the sound
Of my dying
Heartbeat
Which only reflects
My thoughts
What’s there to live for
Anyways?
Lies
A common thought of mine
Feeding myself
Fake hope
Fake endings
Saying them so much
I almost believe them
To be true

Ally Maiste Poem
A warning to the people
The good and the evil
For when I die
The fire in my bones
Will ignite
To wildfires
Watch your back
A ghost is upon you
My shadowy figure
Waiting around every corner
Prepare for an attack
I don’t care
Who you are
What you want to be
You’re all the same to me
A victim of my hunger
A feast for my flame
Suffocate and burn
One by one
Say your goodbyes
The whole world is hell
Suffer now or later
There’s no difference
Hunt or be hunted
In the world
Of prey
Who believe themselves
To be wolves

Ally Maiste Poem
Darkness falls
I succumb to
My mind
The stars echoing
Through the night sky
Bits of light
More than anything
I could ever be
Greater than my world
Or what’s here of me
Shivering in cold
A blanket wrapped around me
Staring into the void
Of the universe
That’s so much bigger
Than what it seems
My thoughts are small
Nonexistent
To anyone but me
They really don’t matter
In the grand scheme
Of things
Anything I do
For good or for bad
Won’t be remembered
In the very end

Ally Maiste Poem
The moon rises
Through the darkness
Stars appear
Twinkling I’m the vastness
I close my eyes
Shutting them out
I lay down
My head
On a pillow of horror
It never lets me rest
My thoughts
Keep me awake
Jolting means I start to drift
Away
My mind seems to be warning me
Of nightmares
But really
That’s what I’m trying
To escape
I can’t leave
But I know
I very well can’t stay
Or these thoughts and memories
Will consume me
And my sanity
Midnight comes
With no sound
Except for the screaming in my head
Nobody is awake
To save me
From this
Finally my thoughts recede
Giving me
Seconds
Of mercy
Tears
Dry on me
As I fall
Asleep

Ally Maiste Poem
Eternally bound
Watch me plummet to the ground
Watch the world spin round
My feelings falling down
Alone in this
No one is here to stop me
Never able to understand
Not able to understand myself
Where have I gone
The girl I once was
Cast away
Lost in the shadows
Taken over by me
A girl I don’t know
Wondering who I am
And where I’m meant to go
Who will I become?
Will I be anything at all?
Do I even want to be?
I make everything go wrong
Think of the world
Like there is no tomorrow
Everything would change
Take away my sorrow
But tomorrow
always comes
Threatening me with anger
Losing me in the path
Of a life that isn’t here
Where do I go now?
Can anybody save me
Would you want to if you could
Or am I not worth saving?
For me, I’m not sure
Broken, sad
Unable to go back
To the life I used to have
Abandoned, alone
Nowhere else to go
Stuck here
My life has been overthrown

Ally Maiste Poem
No one is here
Do what I must
They will never come
Leave me in dust
Abandoned, alone
A single light shines
Blown out by the breeze
Say my goodbyes
Goodbyes to no one
For nobody is there
Here to save me?
Please come prepared
