From Afar
Alessia Feb 2018
I watch you from afar
Taking in your features
How u have mole on your left eye
How you stumble on your words
How your eyes shine brighter then any star 
And when your thinking hard you look up at the sky

I pay attention to you
Even if I was never worth a second glance in your eyes
But to me your my sun
And like the world I revolve around you

I thought what I felt for you was clearly platonic
But the little things about you made me feel tingles down my spine  
And I can't tell you how I really feel so I wrote it poorly in a sonnet
And I'll say I love you a thousand times till you say it back
Even if it lacks everything true

I always watch you from afar 
Cause your the one thing that showed me how to love 
And you didn't even teach me it yourself 
Because what I feel for you cannot be explained in a paragraph of terrible poetry

Her And The Moon
Alessia Feb 2018
The girl with the empty pockets
She has the biggest smile
She always had the loudest laugh 
And if it wasn't so beautiful you'd think she was obnoxious
She did everything right 

She got good grades she was a volunteer and most of all she always and a smile on her face
That's till the sun went down and the sky was illuminated by the moons light
That's when the truth came out
Came out like the tears flowing down her face like the Nile

It doesn't seem so wrong
Cause now a days those who bear the biggest smiles were those who cried themselves to sleep
She cries over her mother 
How the only memory of her was kept in a tiny locket
She cried over her father
But he will always be there 

She was a good girl
If you knew the truth about her you'd think her life is unfair
Yet you never wanted to get to know her

Cause you could never be friends with someone so nice
Personality less you said
The taunting you gave her
She never showed you how she felt about it
She'd just smile and go white knuckled

The only people who knew the truth 
Was herself and the moon
As she laid in bed
Tears streaming down her eyes
The moon would stroke her back at tell her it's okay
And one night she would dance with the stars 
And she would truly be happy

Pretty Girls On The Moon
Alessia Feb 2018
Their Pretty girls on the moon
They don't pick flowers on their way home
They pick the pieces of their broken heart off the floor
They put on masks to cover their tear stained cheeks
And long sleeves to cover their scars

There stuck on the moon but really want to see more
Looking out the moon the only thing they see is Mars
Sky as empty as the tales they were promised 
Their mothers kisses lipstick stains on their foreheads 
And their fathers hand imprints on their cheeks

They've got daddy issues 
And handprints of men where they shouldn't be
Their just looking for the attention they never got
So they took the flight and left the place that hurt them the most 
But the where it hurt most was their broken heart

Their just shallow girls
Never will understand the "struggle"
The one you know oh so well 
Cause you can't look deeper and their fake smiles are all you see
But their nothing more than leaky taps right 
After all they're just pretty girls on the moon

Bitch Face
Alessia Feb 2018
My resting ***** face
My resting ***** face does not make me obnoxious
It doesn't mean that I think I'm better than everyone 
In fact my resting ***** face has nothing to do with you

My resting ***** face is my face
It's what I go to so people don't talk to me
So I don't have to rehearse what I say as I'm having a conversation 
It has to do with the fact that I'm not a ***** I'm just a scared little girl
Oh don't make it seem so  popostirius

My face is my shield 
From the tears that want to flow
So I block out the emotions 
The trauma and all the hurt
I guess my brain is just lots of flowers in fields 
And pretend that I'm at a high when really I feel so low

But my resting ***** face can't show you who I am
But that won't stop you from judging me 
Cause that's so much easier then getting to know me 
It's fine cause I don't want to know you

My resting ***** face is actually not that at all
My resting ***** face is my help me I'm dying inside face
But you won't help
At least not really 
Cause you've got a resting ***** face too
I guess what they say is true
We're all just suicidal kids telling other suicidal kids suicide isn't the answer

We're all dying inside but don't forget to smile for the picture 
Can't let grandma know her beautiful grandkids are fading away with the wind
Please help
Cause my resting ***** face is killing me
And I can't help but want to scream
Even if u can't hear me

The Day I Met You
Alessia Feb 2018
The day I met you
That was the day I regret most
5 years of my life waiting on you like tables
You told me you loved me
And for a moment I thought it was true
But that was nothing more than empty promises and a game to you

I gave you a chance
And you took me for granted
You made me feel worthless
When I was the most lost
I was a mess
And you only kicked me back down
I let you win cause I thought that was right

I guess the truth hurts
But what you did was much worse
You lefts cuts on my heart like the ones on my wrists
But the place you hit most you on my lips

The only thing keeping me up at night is the thought of us
And the day I met you
Because if I could go back
I would most definitely walk away from you

— The End —
