valeria-c - Hello Poetry

At EIGHTEEN we met At a party that I still remember. It was fall, the air changing It was beginning to get dark The sun was going down, The air getting cold. I remember when you bumped onto me That warmth that rushed on my arm. I remember the blue eyes, That mischievous smile. I remember your touch, The "hello" coming from your lips. I remember you across the room Your blue eyes looking, The wink, The smile, The laugh, Could my teenage heart know? That skip, That beat, What did it mean? You walked towards me, Your blue eyes never leaving me, "Hello" you said again. I remember you grabbed my hand, You pulled me closer Whispering into my ear, And the chill running through me, I knew it wasn't from the cold, fall, air. We found a spot and we talked. Hours went by, We realized the sun came up. At NINETEEN we went out, That's when we got serious. You were the one, You were my first. Time went by, Our highs, Our lows, We were inseparable, We said the I love yous'. At Twenty we fought Times got tough, We had some rough times. The talks we had, For the now, The what ifs, The future. Still at Twenty... We loved, Unconditionally, We tried to make it work. At Twenty-One The parties, Constant work, Life, College, We couldn't take it all We were too young. We broke up. At Twenty-Two We were friends, Still in love. We knew it would be forever, That would never change. You moved away I stayed. We moved on, We went our separate ways. At Twenty-Three You came back, but You left again. At Twenty-Four We lost touch, You had moved on, And so had I. Years went by, We barely talked, When we did, we knew, The feelings were always there, Never going away. At Twenty-Seven You bumped on to me, That warmth down my arm, Familiar. Your blue eyes, Your mischievous smile, Your touch, Your Hello. It all came to me. We hung out, We found a spot and talked Letting the night fall, And the sun rise. That skip, That beat, What did it mean? Could my grownup heart know? We said the I love yous. At Twenty-Eight We talked, You wanted to meet and Know my new family. At Twenty-Eight I got the news that you were gone. At Twenty-Eight It all came crashing down. At Twenty-Eight I remembered everything. At Twenty-Eight It was more powerful then, Than the last ten years. At Twenty-Eight The goodbye I could never say, The closure that never came. At Twenty-Eight You, my first love Were gone. At Twenty-Eight I will forever remember you. At Twenty-Eight You will always have a piece of my heart.

Twenty-Eight

At EIGHTEEN we met At a party that I still remember. It was fall, the air changing It was beginning to get dark The sun was going down, The air getting cold.

I remember you across the room Your blue eyes looking, The wink, The smile, The laugh, Could my teenage heart know? That skip, That beat, What did it mean? You walked towards me, Your blue eyes never leaving me, "Hello" you said again. I remember you grabbed my hand, You pulled me closer Whispering into my ear, And the chill running through me, I knew it wasn't from the cold, fall, air. We found a spot and we talked.

A Summer should be filled with some fun in the sun, Laughter, Cold beers and fires. My Summer is filled with sadness, anger And a cloud of darkness. The happy things do not make me happy, I smile and laugh, But it doesn't touch my heart. I fight, I fight to breath. Getting out of bed is tough, Putting a brave face is tougher. Trying to not cry is rugged. I am not drepressed. I was betrayed. I was lied to by the one I love. Trust was broken. My heart was broken. Betrayal is dark, It is heavy, and thick, It is hard to get rid of. It sticks like glue. It sticks like sweat Like in those summer days. Summer, My Hell.

Dark Summer

A Summer should be filled with some fun in the sun, Laughter, Cold beers and fires. My Summer is filled with sadness, anger And a cloud of darkness. The happy things do not make me happy, I smile and laugh, But it doesn't touch my heart. I fight, I fight to breath. Getting out of bed is tough, Putting a brave face is tougher. Trying to not cry is rugged. I am not drepressed. I was betrayed. I was lied to by the one I love. Trust was broken. My heart was broken. Betrayal is dark, It is heavy, and thick, It is hard to get rid of. It sticks like glue. It sticks like sweat Like in those summer days. Summer, My Hell.

Oh darling, This is love. You have stayed, And made me see, You have helped me get up When I was down, I see it all, I see it now. I wasn't always right, You hadn't lied. I danced around the fire When you walked across the burning desire, I was blind, I lied. I see it all, I see it now, The affair wasn't *** It was a fantasy. I have finally cracked the code, I see through the glass of fire, I followed you and I have finally stepped over that same desire. I see it all, I see it now, That old craving is gone, I am cured, I know you're the king And I am your queen. I now know You were always there And I was the one Pushing you away. Was I too blind? Did I lie? You have cleared that smoke, I see clear now. I see it all, I see it now. We're free, We do what we want. We're living on this passion, We enjoy this desire.

Desire

Oh darling, This is love. You have stayed, And made me see, You have helped me get up When I was down, I see it all, I see it now. I wasn't always right, You hadn't lied. I danced around the fire When you walked across the burning desire, I was blind, I lied. I see it all, I see it now, The affair wasn't *** It was a fantasy. I have finally cracked the code, I see through the glass of fire, I followed you and I have finally stepped over that same desire. I see it all, I see it now, That old craving is gone, I am cured, I know you're the king And I am your queen. I now know You were always there And I was the one Pushing you away. Was I too blind? Did I lie? You have cleared that smoke, I see clear now. I see it all, I see it now. We're free, We do what we want. We're living on this passion, We enjoy this desire.

This winter has been the coldest I sit here freezing while time passes by. I ran after you, but you flew like the wind! I spent my days searching, Searching for what? For something that wasn't there, For something that I believed. I lie to myself, You had lied to me. You made me believe, And with eyes closed I jumped. I'd follow you anywhere, I trusted you, I believed in you. But it was so easy for you to walk away, To go back to your old ways, Back to her arms, Keeping her warm, Leaving me to freeze. What can I say, I got caught up in a dream, I, I can't open my eyes. Wake me up, Wake me up and tell me it's all over. I am lost. I am cold. I miss your arms. Your lips. Your eyes. Your laugh. Your heart pounding against me. Wake me up, I am freezing, Let me move again. I need to find myself again. Do what you want, Let me breathe again, Be who you are, Be what you want. You're just the one who lost, You lost what could have been great, You lost the one that believed in you. Believed how great you were, One that loved YOU, And everything about you, The one that didn't want to change you. It happened all so fast, I fell hard, I couldn't help it. You were perfect, You made it all seem… great. But now you're back with her, The perfect man that I once thought you were You no longer are. I could call you names, I could hate you, But I only wish you the best. Because when you realize your mistake It will all be too late. Your lie, Your fault, Your regret, Your lost, Your mistake. And it will all be too late.

Is this a battle? Is this a war? These battle scars They're never healing I am ruined. My body will never be the same, I've fought for you I've fought for us I am scarred, I am scarred for life. These battle scars are never leaving My heart is broken I let it happen again. Make it stop, I am bleeding, I am hurting. Make it go away, These scars are never going to change They don't look like they're healing, I've lost that power, I have lost this battle. They're no longer bumps and bruises They are cuts and wounds Deep thoughts, deep marks. These battle scars have cut deep, I cannot be saved, I am marked. These battle scars are not fading, I cannot make them go away, I'm at war with these scars. I lost this battle, I lost this war. It is over.

Battle or War

Is this a battle? Is this a war? These battle scars They're never healing I am ruined. My body will never be the same, I've fought for you I've fought for us I am scarred, I am scarred for life. These battle scars are never leaving My heart is broken I let it happen again. Make it stop, I am bleeding, I am hurting. Make it go away, These scars are never going to change They don't look like they're healing, I've lost that power, I have lost this battle. They're no longer bumps and bruises They are cuts and wounds Deep thoughts, deep marks. These battle scars have cut deep, I cannot be saved, I am marked. These battle scars are not fading, I cannot make them go away, I'm at war with these scars. I lost this battle, I lost this war. It is over.

It's been a while since I held a pen I sit here and wonder to myself, Is this even right, do I remember how to write? I had everything I wanted, Knew and learned everything I could, I stood head up high. Proud. Happy. I lived a fun life. I had everything I needed, Never asked for more. I was on top of the world. I lost my patience, I lost my love, I lost everything above. I forgot to dream, And how to make goals. I have to grab a piece of paper And dot down my thoughts. I have to remember, I have to sit down and learn. I have to hold this pen And rewrite my goals.

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE

It's been a while since I held a pen I sit here and wonder to myself, Is this even right, do I remember how to write? I had everything I wanted, Knew and learned everything I could, I stood head up high. Proud. Happy. I lived a fun life. I had everything I needed, Never asked for more. I was on top of the world. I lost my patience, I lost my love, I lost everything above. I forgot to dream, And how to make goals. I have to grab a piece of paper And dot down my thoughts. I have to remember, I have to sit down and learn. I have to hold this pen And rewrite my goals.

Oh the memories that rush through my head walking through these doors. The smell of this house, The view of the lake, The feel of these sheets. I can't believe it's been this long yet doesn't feel long at all. The laughs, The parties, The kisses we shared, The stories we told, The tears we shed. Our confessions And promises, Where are they now? We've put everything aside, Not having a care. I lay here alone with a smile on my face, In spite our past, Fights, Hatred, Love, And differences, You're still a true friend. But I can't help myself, I imagine, I remember, I remember, how your fingertips felt on my warm skin, Your lips on my body, Your breath on my neck. And as I turn to stop myself from my thoughts, There you stand on the door frame, Waiting. I hold my breath, My body immobile, I stare at your eyes, And all those memories we've had come rushing back again. One look at me and your eyes shine. Those eyes, blue and beautiful. So shiny and bright, I could easily get lost in them. I feel your heat as you walk closer to me, The bed moves as you sit next to me, No words are spoken, But none are needed. I see you smile, I feel your hand, I'm starting to sweat. And before I can stop myself, I wrap myself around you and we are lost, Lost in our world. Our only world. Coming back to each other, Because deep down, We know we're perfect together.

To breathe or not to breathe? Over whelmed by all this, The desire to catch a breath and see See the light of the shining, burning sun. To feel the breeze and the cool wind of the night. I am trapped in the dark, in your too warm arms. Let me breathe I whisper, let me breathe I cry, A cry for help, A cry for forgiveness, A cry to be let go. It is time, time to leave the nest, Time to live and grow. To understand and learn. I gotta go, I gotta breathe... It is time for me to breathe.

Breath.

To breathe or not to breathe? Over whelmed by all this, The desire to catch a breath and see See the light of the shining, burning sun. To feel the breeze and the cool wind of the night. I am trapped in the dark, in your too warm arms. Let me breathe I whisper, let me breathe I cry, A cry for help, A cry for forgiveness, A cry to be let go. It is time, time to leave the nest, Time to live and grow. To understand and learn. I gotta go, I gotta breathe... It is time for me to breathe.

I can already feel it The pull, The drag. We're heading back to how we used to be, There's no good left in us, There's no love left between us. I want out. I want to run. I want to hide. I want to live the rest of my life. Trust is lost, Love is forgotten, Tears are dried. There's nothing else, There's nothing more. I'm walking out, I can't do this anymore, You're not who you used to be, You've lied to me, There's nothing left, Goodbye, Good luck.

I can already feel it The pull, The drag. We're heading back to how we used to be, There's no good left in us, There's no love left between us. I want out. I want to run. I want to hide. I want to live the rest of my life. Trust is lost, Love is forgotten, Tears are dried. There's nothing else, There's nothing more. I'm walking out, I can't do this anymore, You're not who you used to be, You've lied to me, There's nothing left, Goodbye, Good luck.

What is life without the one you love I'd crawl on the ground for you, Fight the world for you, Argue with the captain and try to sail with you. I'll step out of line with you, Live on land for you, I'd do anything for you. Don't be afraid of me, Listen to your heart, Stop those whispers around you. I'll change my life for you, I'd crawl on glass for you, With pleasure I'll close my eyes and do anything for you. Anything at all, I'd do anything at all for you. I'll fight for your heart, I'll fight to be with you, I'd do anything for you.
