Bede Sep 2019
I cannot be used,
Nor can I be loved
And both of these, fine with me.

I cannot fill the void,
Made inside this pine,
So I shall cut down the whole tree.

Make a stump
Prepare it well
And transfer up a sapling

Let this be Love
It be my faith
And let it grow from my dead body
Bede Sep 2019
Imagine a world where
Man can be who he wishes,
Never feeling sorrow
Or knowing the pain of the heart.
That wondrous feeling
Of freedom, contained,
Kept deep in the soul.
And I don't have this, I'm sorry I told
You a lie today.

I wrote this acrostic to tell the truth
Im sorry. I don't want you to worry about me. I want you too, but I don't know
Bede Sep 2019
We can work through the pressure
Just take your time,
Know who's there for you,
And make your heart Happy.

Your soul, golden to me,
No matter your choice.
I know I am a sorry soul
But never forget i love you so.
Bede Sep 2019
I say i love you far too much
For a man who rarely hears it back
Something to work on, maybe just not as much until I hear it back.
Bede Sep 2019
'Cause you said that'
Now please just
Say it to me.
It's not my choice whether this is a break, dear. I didn't leave.
Bede Sep 2019
Every word you said,
Bouncing around my mind,
Like a lovely ball of light
Showing my soul
That smiling is okay.
Bede Sep 2019
I feel like I can breathe
Like my lungs are full of freedom.
My heart, still heavy, is lighter
And my mind is much less dark.

I am still not okay,
But i know that won't last.
I will look towards the best parts of life
And hold onto them.

The forests, the trees, the mountains and foggy mornings
The fresh air, ths dew drops, the evening most
Of rainy days.

The love of friend, memories and potential, all equally dear.
Bede Sep 2019
I will not cut
Even if i want to
Even if I wish
I had died

Those months ago,
Just a year and half month
I almost
Took my life.

Please dont worry
I cannot leave you,
My soul would never
Forgive itself.

But those long cuts
They had a meaning
My sorrow
Has culminated in pain.

Do not blame yourself
For my poor judgement.
You dont blame me
For you leaving.

So please dont blame yourself
For all my sorrow
In the end
Youre still my light.
Bede Sep 2019
I will never hide
No matter how much I ache
I trust you to look away
If you truly wish to.

Thank you so much.
I will be better.
I'll be a good friend to you,
and I'll keep my emotions out of it
Just, please, don't spare me just to find out some other way
Bede Sep 2019
Thank you for telling me
The truth of what he did.
His friendship meant little to me
When he hit a **** pipe when I saw him.

If all they want to do is smoke,
Then I am wary of them.
I'm overcoming my addiction
That's why I'm now wary
Of those who are false
Behind simulacrum screens.
You told me the truth, you enlightened my life, the changes coming are insane.
Bede Sep 2019
You are still my joy
Until the end comes.
I say those two words
Because they're right.

Never forget me
I won't forget tou
Even if you've got to go
For a while.

I will be here
While Autumn's coming
And I shall
Be here for you.

I'll never leave you,
My Autumn Darling,
Even if your leaves
Weren't evergreen.
Bede Sep 2019
The Olympian Spirits compare not to your wondrous beauty.
Their power is nothing to your smile
The dragons of the world revile
When they're pierced by your shining glow.

Your radiance appeasing Helios,
Athena admires your wit,
And Aphrodite loves your look
Every curve, every bump, is blessed.

You may not be able to look past my odd beliefs
But I adore yours
You need not khernip, for your miasma
Is as wonderful as fallen snow.
A polytheist stole my heart
Bede Sep 2019
Who were you with
When you kissed my lips
So unhappily nights ago?
You may have not seen it as good, but my opinions differ. I just hope that you will talk to me about this.
Bede Sep 2019
Is everything okay?
Time will tell
Bede Sep 2019
I'm thankful for you
I have given you my heart
And i pray you keep it safe.

No matter what
I'll keep yours safe
Beating happily next to mine
Bede Sep 2019
I'm sorry
I don't know why anymore
But I am
Bede Sep 2019
Cuts and scrapes
Slashes, tears
Unintended, with intention
Please save my soul.
Bede Sep 2019
Even though
I cause you pain
You still can say
'I love you'
I owe you so much for those three worda
Bede Sep 2019
Thank you.
Bede Sep 2019
I may be extreme at times
But I will mellow.
I hope you heal
Just as I hope to too.
Bede Sep 2019
What have I done to
make me smile today?
Have I shown myself
That i can be happy,
Or have I not yet
Healed my heart?
Questions I will ask daily,
Bede Sep 2019
I am not crazy
To hold onto
The only friend
To show me their worth
And keep it.
Bede Sep 2019
I am not afraid of who i am
Nor am I scared of who I'll become

I'll use this as a lesson
In the school of life
Never believe what people say
Unless you stare them in the eyes
Bede Sep 2019
Vaulted poems
Separated with the
Special intentions
Of the heart
Bede Sep 2019
There's nothing I can do
But show her all of my love
And wait.
Bede Sep 2019
I'll forever hold you close,
My dearest friend,
If platonic soulmates truly exist,
When things are finally calm,
I'll be happy to call you mine.
No matter what happens, you're still a friend who I adore.
Bede Sep 2019
I'm cleaning around my room
And I feel the energy shifting.
The cool breeze entering
Through the open doorway.

It is an omen
A pray for today.
Right ruddy is the face
Whose eyes stare upon my home
With a clear mind
And an open heart.
Bede Sep 2019
Cleaned up my poems
And my act.
May I take this as
Another gnomic lesson
Bede Sep 2019
I just wish, one confession after another, that they'd be believed.
I pour my heart out into doubt, or into uncertainty, and I'm okay with pledging love to a void where I know not love goes.
Like throwing a rock into space,
I'll toss my heart into the fray,
And I'll fight tooth and nail to be the best thing for you
Bede Sep 2019
My sea-foam beauty
Your smile, lovely
Just like every
Wave of the sea
Bede Sep 2019
What must I do?
Here is my list:
Make sure your attention
Is focused on her.
Love her fully, but show it this time
And don't let her hide her feelings.
Do not hide yours,
No matter if you end up hurt,
It's already happened once,
I know you'll love. I know you'll live.

Talk daily, call her, treat her just as she is viewed in your heart.
In the end, you'll still make her feel like the most important person in the world.

That is what matters the most right now
Bede Sep 2019
I may be your world
But you seem like a spaceship
Flying to another planet
And I wish my gravity
Could pull you back in.
Bede Sep 2019
The bad may come in threes,
But you were not that.
Tragedy echoes not
The feelings within me.

You are the Great Third,
The final of the trio
The golden sheft of wheat
Given to the gods of autumn.

You are the shining sun
A glorious ray of light
But a cloud rolls past you, dear
Shadowing your might.

The tragedy may have been me
But twas it not you.
You may have torn my soul apart
But you can mend it anew.
If not I have a sewing thread, and that will have to do.
But it will break, may no mistake, the moment i think of you
Bede Sep 2019
You drive me crazy
Like a child seeing
Stars for the first time
Bede Sep 2019
Every day I walk through life
Unknowing of where to go
I only have a vague idea
Of what I'm 'sposed to know.

I'm unsure of my calling
I'm unsure of my life
I'm not too keen on these machines
That cause me all my strife.

I live a life of lying
Of looking into eyes
And telling people I'm okay
That I've still got all my tries!

But one thing is for certain
This one's not left behind
The one thing I am certain of
Is Love's right-wondrous rhyme.

What's shone since the beginning?
Since light first graced the sky?
'Twas Hatred's broodish, helly face?
No! Love's the one, says I!

So one thing is for certain
This one's left to remind
Of why I keep on chugging
And a-rollin' down the line.

That's Love is my whole reason
For dancing this foreboding dance
And if I am not careful
I could lose my last chance.

So learn to romp and tango!
Bully, my boy, dance right!
For if we Love, what have we lost?
Not nary a beautiful night!
Love, and love for You, is my whole reason. Love, and love for you, is my whole reason. I will always love You, My Lord and my Love, wholesome and romantic, a bride's unbridled love.
Bede Sep 2019
My name is Tommy
I go by Bede
Because I'm afraid to be me.

I'm obsessed with names
Because I'm ashamed
Of what I can turn mine into.

No longer!
I am Tommy
And I will be proud.
Bede Sep 2019
I miss church
But I woke up too late
And I dont know
If I can make it.

My heart hurts still
I don't know where to go
And I'm scared of the consequences.

I want peace
That truest peace
The bliss of the ages.

Will i make it to church?
I would druther see the color
In my best friend's hair
Bede Sep 2019
Can I say why i love you still?
I can give you many reasons, I could write tomes of devotion, series spent on your eyes,
But, I love you unconditionally,
It took time, it wasn't instant, it was tried and tested.
I love you as you are.
No if, ands, or buts.
I love you for you, my perfect person
Bede Sep 2019
I understand what you mean
By not wanting me
To focus on you.

My first thoughts
When I rise
Are still centered on you.
This isn't bad, I just miss you
Bede Sep 2019
I will be here to help you
Just as you helped me today
You may not know it
But you saved me today.

Thank you
Bede Sep 2019
I made grand promises
Of what I'd do
To those that use
And manipulate you
My beauty, my love, my soul.

I don't know anymore
Who you truly love
And if I'm actually
The center of your world.
Bede Sep 2019
I will not be afraid
To speak my mind
And to shout my heart's love
Bede Sep 2019
Told ya
I'd never
Let you go
Bede Sep 2019
Added collections,
Tomes of tomes,
Memory lane in poetic fashion.
Curated by yours truly!
Bede Sep 2019
What is love?
Is it purely romantic?
No, nay, nary,
Then why do only lovers say it often?

My hope will remain
But you know that story
And I will love every minure
Of our tale.
Thank you, Claire. I will say it unto the ages of ages. Into infinity. Thank you
Bede Sep 2019
This wasn't a break
It was a breaking
To see how far I'll go.
I'll go forever,
Just ******* watch,
I'll prove I am your pine.
Bede Sep 2019
Fell for pine eyes,
Dressed in red, my sorrow,
Oh stricken down thy arms and thighs,
Never forget i'm the pine in his eyes.
I really need to stop using this app as a social and just exploring, I find things i never wish to find
Bede Sep 2019
You let me live for you
And this is what I'll do
The pinkies man, I ******* loved it. I promise. Forever and always.
Bede Sep 2019
Other poems went viral
Just as I expected
Proudly, they're decent
Bede Sep 2019
I will trust
My instincts
From here on.
