hello?
is anyone there?
i'm stuck here
6 feet under
beneath the dirt and critters
rotting away...
why did everyone stop visiting?
hello?!
did they forget about me??
i'm still here!!
dissolving into the soil
6 feet under
-forgotten
star Feb 2019
a fire
nipping at my heels
devouring me from the inside
a black flame
eating me up
coursing through my veins
constricting me like a python
till there's no room left to breathe
obscured in fury
lost in the flames
-anger
star Feb 2019
her cheeks
made of sunsets
her eyes
made of a thousand suns
her smile
the shape of a crescent moon
she is as beautiful as a sunny azure blue sky
-my muse
star May 2019
a world stripped of soul
a world stripped of grace and beauty
devoid of color
black and white
drowning in sorrow
suffocating in vain
a gaping void of what used be as holy as the heavens
but is now only a pile of ashes and burning embers
in this world
in this hollow world
the sun's rays are bitter
the streets are weary
in this empty purgatory
laced with misery
a world with purpose is unfathomable
so all stays quiet
as we watch the world drag on with our silent eyes
eyes as shy as the moon
is this really our reality?
is this really what we are supposed to call our home?
this world of black and white?
this is what we see until she
her cheeks made of sunsets
her eyes made of a thousand suns
her smile the shape of a crescent moon
for she is the color
she could spin gold from a world of nothing
as she bursts with rays of warmth
her soul so ablaze the sun was envious
her world none like ours
for she can see past our world of black and white
and paints herself with all sorts of hues when the world left her to be grey
she wraps herself in a blanket of fairy tales
set adrift sailing among a sea of fantasies
till she taught us how to dream too
to escape this mundane world
and soon enough us too were torn from the world of black and white
we are thankful to her
for igniting the fire within us
no longer leaving us to feel somber nor dull
for we can see
we can see her
we can see her light
her generosity
her virtue
her passion
she is treasure
cherished and admired
we can see her now
we can see that she is pure
the mere sight of her is blinding
now that we can see color
we can see that she is golden
-the color of hope in a black n white world

daydreaming
set adrift among my fantasies
wrapped in a blanket of fairy tales
gazing out the window
to this distant world
till i am torn from my dreams
-my imagination
me in English today lols
star Feb 2019
you don't hear my cries
you don't see my pain
you stay silent in your pretend world
drifting in and out of reality
a slumbering beast
hidden away in his dungeon
leaving me to be your responsibility
since when did your 7 year old daughter turn into your mother?
i cry
as you drink away your troubles
mind turned to mush
your eyes
a gaping void into nothingness
your heart
aching like a beaten dog
lifeless and numb
what happened to you?
where'd you go?
now you're this sad faceless man
a hollow shell of who you used to be
a shadow
-daughter

her voice
soft as silk
the light strum of a guitar
or the sound of a pastel sunrise
peeking past the horizon

red
star Feb 2019
red
red
the color of the anger running through your veins
the color of violence your hands possess
the color of sin
the color of passion oozing from your soul
the color of love and war
-red
star Feb 2019
my fingertips
stained red
trying to paint a future for us
why'd you have to leave
-broken promises
star Feb 2019
i cry
all those who watch
stay quiet with their silent eyes
i weep
the tears burn my skin
i see them stare with their shy eyes
they watch me beg on my worn knees
"please help me" i wail
yet they just take curious glances
watching with their silent eyes
as i cry
-polina norris
star Feb 2019
that fire in your eyes
extinguished
a pile of burning embers is all that's left
-lost hope
star Feb 2019
fragile as glass
alas
here she stands
in the hands of wrath
my girl
made of porcelain and glass
has risen at last
-proud
star Feb 2019
this ring
made of gold and surreal fantasies
a bridge between two worlds
till death do us part
sits before me
an eternal promise at my fingertips
here I go
about to fall into forever
-my vow
star Jan 2019
the sun and the moon waltz in the twinkling sky
frolicking with the comets
flirting with the stars
leaping past the planets
where time is timeless
they twirl and prance
soaring through the heavens
-polina norris
star Feb 2019
her heart
overflowing with kindness
so much she was basically choking on it
trying to mend the world
by giving some of her humanity away
to those who lacked any
to those suffocated by their cruelty
until she had no more kindness to give
she too was drowning in hostility
-polina norris
you
star Feb 2019
you
you
you are a brisk January dawn
a breath of life
a new beginning
you
you are a flourishing butterfly
fluttering into the crisp sky
at the break of day
-polina norris
