cj-tims - Hello Poetry

lips like poison, eyes as green as envy, one word and you have me falling to your knees. one kiss and i have blood dripping from my own lips. you chase me, until i’m intoxicated by lust. your body finally intertwines with mine. yet i wake up feeling loved, but to no one around.

lips like poison, eyes as green as envy, one word and you have me falling to your knees. one kiss and i have blood dripping from my own lips. you chase me, until i’m intoxicated by lust. your body finally intertwines with mine. yet i wake up feeling loved, but to no one around.

looking into your eyes reminded me of a galaxy, too far to discover. you were venturing your thoughts while i was locked out. looking at your lips reminded me of the clouds on a stormy day. so tempting to touch, yet so dangerous. hearing your voice brought me into a blissful peace i have yet to discover on my own. everything about you screams into my soul, reminding me that you are my forbidden fruit. but oh what I wouldn’t do to take one more bite.

Forbidden fruit

looking into your eyes reminded me of a galaxy, too far to discover. you were venturing your thoughts while i was locked out. looking at your lips reminded me of the clouds on a stormy day. so tempting to touch, yet so dangerous. hearing your voice brought me into a blissful peace i have yet to discover on my own. everything about you screams into my soul, reminding me that you are my forbidden fruit. but oh what I wouldn’t do to take one more bite.

when i told you i loved you, I thought you were going to stay. i’d never prepped myself for you walking away. now i’m looking around at all the lost memories, really wishing i didn’t let you see the real me.

Left alone

when i told you i loved you, I thought you were going to stay. i’d never prepped myself for you walking away. now i’m looking around at all the lost memories, really wishing i didn’t let you see the real me.

in the thoughts of everything that has been and everything that could have been. looking back at the storms caused by uncontrollable weather. how selfish of me to compare my situations to weather that is no one’s choice, like I didn’t make the choice to create the tornado in a bottle. i feel as if i am God, but only bringing havoc. i’m so far down in a rabbit hole of nothing but chaos i’ve forgotten how to grab a branch and slow myself down. get it together is such a small phrase but a much larger task.

Looking into those eyes And trying to find hope Is a task in itself. You scour fields And hike over mountains, You find puddles Of lakes left behind From dreams forgotten. You try to re-emerge the memories Of that dreamer child Who promised herself she’d be a doer. Looking at those hands, Studying the calluses You’ve made from the strength You’ve tried to gain Makes you self aware of your journey. You look at all the scars From the years of an adventurous childhood. You think of when you weren’t so secluded, When you weren’t so scared to live. You look up and wonder How you slowly lost yourself And didn’t notice until it was too late To go back.

I keep saying “believe in yourself”, but i won’t believe in me. to expect you to do this, how much of a hypocrite would i be? i’m in a garden of roses But still see a **** I’m expecting to grow, but won’t move to new soil. every time i have the opportunity i recoil. it’s time to notice my worth instead of viewing myself as the dirt.

Coming to this place Reminds me of what we used to be. I sit in my old room, The one that witnessed first hand Our initial spark. Sitting on this bed Reminds me of the nights We spent together, Sneaking you out before dawn. Standing in that little mirror Reminds me of the photos We’d take, Our echoing laughs happier than ever. Everything i touch Has a memory of you. And maybe that’s why It’s so hard to stay And even harder to leave.

Faded memories of you.

Coming to this place Reminds me of what we used to be. I sit in my old room, The one that witnessed first hand Our initial spark. Sitting on this bed Reminds me of the nights We spent together, Sneaking you out before dawn. Standing in that little mirror Reminds me of the photos We’d take, Our echoing laughs happier than ever. Everything i touch Has a memory of you. And maybe that’s why It’s so hard to stay And even harder to leave.

I love you As a friend. No, no that isn’t right. See that’s what i say To hide how i feel. When i say i love you I mean I love you. With no establishments, No walls. See i love you As the moon Loves the stars. There is them, There is us. And there is you. I love you.

A part of me rests in your hands. It took me great strength to give this up. You carry it around carelessly, As if it were a gum wrapper You’re ready to drop. You slowly discard these pieces As i follow behind Picking them up, And once again Placing them into your hands. See that’s the thing about being blind About one sided love. Do this for decades, And here i am. Cleaning up MY mess YOU made. And still I never leave.

The fear of isolation overwhelms me As tears stream down my face For no one to see. It seems as if they are in competition, Who can run faster? They leave my cheeks, Because even they Don’t want to keep me company.

Lonely.

The fear of isolation overwhelms me As tears stream down my face For no one to see. It seems as if they are in competition, Who can run faster? They leave my cheeks, Because even they Don’t want to keep me company.
