Bright_Violet - Hello Poetry

Surrounded by family People I've known all my life Yet I feel my heart stone cold and numb We're not the same people anymore. I've changed. I've come so far. I'm sorry. I can't take you on this new journey with me. My happiness is at the distance and I want to reach it. It's been everything a person can feel. Thank you Now, it's time for me to spread my wings.

Coming of Age

Surrounded by family People I've known all my life Yet I feel my heart stone cold and numb We're not the same people anymore. I've changed. I've come so far. I'm sorry. I can't take you on this new journey with me. My happiness is at the distance and I want to reach it. It's been everything a person can feel. Thank you Now, it's time for me to spread my wings.

I thought I had it all figured out I felt strong in control. Now that I've seen you everything is out of place. Yet it could not be more perfect. Yes, we fight. Yes, I cry and I suffer. But when you look at me the whole world disappears and suddenly, my heart skips a beat. There's no place I'd rather be I can't count how many poems and songs and plays and movies have been written for love. Nearly every one of them Yet none of them has ever existed For you are here, now, with me.

Can It Be?

I thought I had it all figured out I felt strong in control. Now that I've seen you everything is out of place. Yet it could not be more perfect. Yes, we fight. Yes, I cry and I suffer. But when you look at me the whole world disappears and suddenly, my heart skips a beat. There's no place I'd rather be I can't count how many poems and songs and plays and movies have been written for love. Nearly every one of them Yet none of them has ever existed For you are here, now, with me.

Why do I do this to myself? Why do I see rejection where there is none? Being in love is like flying with no safety net It feels like nothing else in the world, but, when you fall, you fall hard. Pain takes my breath away thinking about you. I know you have needs I have needs too. Whose do we satisfy? Why? Who decides? Who balances the scales? Why is it so ******* hard being away from you? I try to hold back the tears I try to respect your space But, ******* hell, I am screaming and you can't hear me. I miss you, I want to touch you but you won't come. If that is not rejection, then my mind is hell on earth.

Have you ever felt anything more amazing? The sun kissing your face while your eyes rest while you take a breath lying down listening to the waves. They come and go incessantly but you like the sound of them their rhythm takes you on a journey. A journey you shall always cherish, wisdom you got through pain and torment And now it's time to let it go You've earned your rest Take a bow Pull the curtains Empty your mind and rejoice You left your mark in this world You touched people in your wake And that's all you can ever hope for

Take A Bow

It's just that I have to write. It's not a choice. It's a need. I'm not looking to please others I don't care if the only person who ever reads it is me. I'll do it anyway I have to For if I didn't I'd tear apart a piece of my soul.

To Write

Hiding is pointless I have everything yet I miss so much. I want my grandmother. Boy, do I miss her Sometimes, oh yes, sometimes even more than my own mother. I remember carefree times What if you're not here physically? I want your soul I know it's here I hope it is. It's been a while since you left Not nearly enough to heal my wounds. I hope you're in a better place now Perhaps we'll meet again. Just the thought of you not being here makes me shiver. I love you so much And you gave away your spirit without a fight. Why? What were you thinking of when you did that? Certainly not me or anybody else. I hope the next life will give you something better than this one. Truth is you were wronged a bit Maybe part of it was your fault. But I don't blame you I think it's time for me to let you go but it's so so hard I don't want to but I have to. Only my name is left as a reminder And all that's left in my memory I fear I will forget What can I do? Probably nothing Goodnight, nana Perhaps one day I will see you again Thank you so much for all that you've given me I love you Your Granddaughter

Sun Spring Light breeze blowing in my face. The sun is the most beautiful orange I have ever seen It reaches my eyes my soul. Peace The wind is caressing the leaves And I hear nature obeying to the wind's rhythm. Peace Just for a little while Until my mind is flooded with matters of this world. I smell the air I can't get enough of it Only a breath and then I dive back in Sometimes I'm drowning and then I have to find some oxygen Before I sink back down Maybe I'll get out. Once and for all I'll reach the surface Maybe not But I can't stop dreaming

I long for other moments. Memories come uninvited -as always- The mind keeps going back despite the profound resistance of the body. I remember images, faces, smells Some that I can never retrace What could it possibly take to let it go? Are mistakes ever forgiven? Isn't the picture blurred even if it's there? We can never go back. It's either a bad or a good thing. So many dimmed lights inside a dark room. Can I find the door? Can anyone?

Path In The Dark

I long for other moments. Memories come uninvited -as always- The mind keeps going back despite the profound resistance of the body. I remember images, faces, smells Some that I can never retrace What could it possibly take to let it go? Are mistakes ever forgiven? Isn't the picture blurred even if it's there?

I designed it just for you hoping never to use it. A special place in the kingdom of lost souls. I have decorated it with nothing but joyful memories and I added even a sprinkle of forgiveness. Forever far far away our paths break apart. I put high up in my kingdom A mountaintop of golden grass And us standing opposite each other I never needed subjects to rule the best part of the world. I only needed a warm heart that sometimes seems irreversibly frozen. But then I go back to my special kingdom and for a few moments I look at all these special thrones. The water of redemption must come and the sun beams will instill life once again. If the bleeding ever stops.

Kingdoms of the Mind

Forever far far away our paths break apart. I put high up in my kingdom A mountaintop of golden grass And us standing opposite each other I never needed subjects to rule the best part of the world.

I love the winter. If I were to miss anything from this Earth it would be the winter. I can hear my boots on a stone cold floor My breath comes out frozen in a house long abandoned. My childhood memories overwhelm me. I've spent years of my life there Now all of them have become a stalactite of ice Slowly melting as the years go by. I rub my hands together to warm up. Now I don't know which one is really frozen My body or my heart? Once I had bliss moments I could feel safe. Now I know better I'm afraid I might ruin my past blissful memories by creating new ones. They're not the same At least for now. Maybe years from now they'll become the same But the winter comes and goes regardless. Like all seasons, I allow my heart to warm up from time to time. But when it's winter, the walls of ice are impenetrable It's safe inside but sometimes quite lonely. There come times when I prefer that Sadly these are getting more by the year Who knows? Life will make its circle Winter, spring, summer, autumn will come again. Even when I'm gone from this world Maybe in them one can find a peculiar sense of justice. Is there really?
