Coffin bed.
Carolina Mar 2020
You said you'd go back,
so in bed still I stood.
My back hurts
and my breath has stopped.
How many years have passed?

A hand to hold forever.
Carolina Oct 2020
The key to heaven,
the sun that keeps us alive,
the one in a million,
everyday's sunrise.
I will stay here forever,
forever by your side,
with our promises and dreams,
with your hand on mine.
Your tender voice in my head
for all my life on replay
𝑌𝑜𝑢'𝑟𝑒 𝑔𝑜𝑛𝑛𝑎 𝑏𝑒 𝑜𝑘𝑎𝑦.
For Evie, the sun in my life.

Frozen.
Carolina Apr 2020
Her desire was love
but she found a land of ice.
In her duty to melt it
she ended up frozen alive.

Peace.
Carolina Jun 2021
I see the extension of a countryside
at sun set.
I see a deep orange horizon.
I see hills, light blue from the distance.
I see a file of trees that at this time seem black.
I see a windmill at the right of the lot.
I see an only star shining bright.
I see my childhood.
I see freedom.
I see you.

El amor no alcanza.
Carolina Mar 2023
Amé tu energía,
tu sonrisa,
tu mirar.
Y hoy ya no te encuentro;
aunque lo intente
ya no estás.
Y no quiero alejarme
pero me cuesta caminar
y vos casi corriendo
ya ni me esperas.
Triste pero cierto,
a veces el amor no alcanza.

Neon light.
Carolina Nov 2019
I waited all night for a shooting star
to wish upon,
to feel its light.
But the night went by,
too numb to cry.
The stars looked petrified
from all their lies.
The meteors shined
for a way short time,
blinding my sight
with green and white.
At last the only hint of light
that would meet my eye
was the neon light
from a club nearby.

Growling monster.
Carolina Mar 2018
The wrath inside me
I cannot control,
the monster growls
begging for more.
This sickening pleasure
I inherit from a fiend
of powerful rage
and a delight for fear.
The messed up in me
will soon dominate.
Blood, weeping and misfortune.
Oh, it will be divinely great.
155 · Jan 2021
I was here but now I'm not.
Carolina Jan 2021
I can't forgive you and I won't.
Indifference burns like cigarette smoke through my throat.
And I think I'll drink to sleep,
I won't lie awake and weep.
Once again I'm on my own,
once again my dreams are gone.
Keep on smiling at your phone,
hope you find there something more.
I was here but now I'm not.
Where am I?
I do not know.
Where am I?
I'll wait the call.

I do not know how to swim.
Carolina Oct 2020
I am crossing the ocean,
you said we would do this together.
I am trying to cross the ocean
but I stop for a second and you are not here whatsoever.
I am floating alone,
you were supposed to be by my side.
How far is the shore from here to be arrived?
Everything is blue including myself.
I cannot see where the ocean ends
and the sky begins.
Oh no, I forgot I do not know how to swim.
I do not know how to swim.

Sleeping on the floor.
Carolina Apr 2020
Not a kiss nor a caress,
not even when you see that I'm a mess.
Crying in the bed,
sleeping on the floor,
begging "I don't want this anymore"
Giving all I have,
giving all I can.
You turned on your back,
you don't even care.
146 · Apr 2020
Silence reveals it all.
Carolina Apr 2020
Breathe in, hold, breathe out.
To take care of a garden.
To take care of one's soul.
Sit in the grass, sit facing a wall.
Silence reveals it all.
Quieten the mind,
quiet the body,
emotions will get slow.
Then you understand them,
then they let you know.
You can integrate them,
and see how it flows.
145 · Mar 2020
Devours.
Carolina Mar 2020
I explode, I leave my reason aside.
I cannot do anything about the chemical mess in my mind.
And I think for minutes,
or maybe for hours,
feeling the pain
as it devours.
143 · Nov 2019

Carolina Nov 2019
Trying to prevent you from living,
those who send you there to be eaten alive.
Thinking of being forgiving
even when they
deprive.

That sound.
Carolina May 2020
I will lay myself down
and cry to the inner sound
of my heart breaking.

Carolina Mar 2023
In essence, deep and hidden,
there's the moon
and there is me.
Moving oceans;
raging waves,
hunting winds.

Looking for.
Carolina Mar 2020
I've been looking for a man
         to caress my soul
         but my new true desire
         is one that calls me his own.

I've been looking for a man
         with no love soft nor sweet
         going over and over in my mind
         those guys from the streets.

I've been looking for a man
         with a heart black as tar
         no innocent angel,
         the one who'd crash the car.

I've been looking for a man
        who would break the walls.
        I find myself inclined
        to those who have the stones.
  
I've been looking for a man
       who've been burried in sand,
       who'd fight for any reason,
       who's got blood on his hands.

I've been looking for a man
       to ride or die with,
       to help me get going,
       to fill me with ease.

This morning.
Carolina Apr 2020
Dark coffee, late morning.
Hot cup, cold heart.
Slowly sinking into the ocean.
Slowly losing the mind.
A fixed gaze on the wall,
fingers getting burned,
lifelessly inhaling,
feelings begin to rot.

Living corpse.
Carolina Jan 2021
I wrote you poems,
I've written you a million lines.
You don't deserve a word,
you deserve none of my sighs.
For you've tricked me
into believing
that love was kind this time
but you ran out of fuel;
Unmoving, unloving.
An empty space behind your eyes.
Now what sleeps next to me
is a living corpse
whose actions show no remorse.
I will turn my car into a hearse
and take you down below to end this curse.
123 · Mar 2020
I...
Carolina Mar 2020
I write, deep ache inside.
I cry, not knowing why.
I sleep, one more pill.
I drink, just want a thrill.
I read, not to feel alone.
I eat, not to reach my bones.
I dream, fed up of my life.
I quit, one more time.
I smoke, feet leave the ground.
I fly, elevated mind resounds.
I apologize, failed again.
I fall, wish to be dead.

Crawling.
Carolina Feb 2020
Another one
who grovels to them
when all you should do
is bid them farewell.
122 · Mar 2020
Dead end.
Carolina Mar 2020
Suddenly, the night was too dark,
the mind too twisted,
the city too dangerous,
the heart too damaged,
the sight too blurry
and life devastating.

No sé escribir
Carolina Nov 2020
No sé escribir

Solo desbordo emociones
Que no se dónde dejar
No sé con quién hablar

No sé escribir

No poseo técnica ni estilo
En vez de un bello dibujo solo es un garabato
Que me distrae por un rato

No sé escribir

Así que sólo lo hago
Sin pensar mucho
Entre mis dedos un pucho
Y releo lo que ya leí y me hace reir

No sé escribir

Someone to stay.
Carolina Feb 2020
"People come and go" they say
but I just want someone to stay.
110 · Feb 2020
Love.
Carolina Feb 2020
Every kiss you give is a stab I take.
Getting closer to beheading.
Careless and cold your touch, your hug.
I'm so tired of the begging.
110 · Feb 2020
Dead.
Carolina Feb 2020
Literary dream
where my skin turns violet
and my lips go green,
where my eyes are holes
and I lose my teeth,
my hair's dry and won't ever grow,
my once strong flesh is now gone.
107 · May 2020
Spring.
Carolina May 2020
Whistling a song we wrote together
while the wind plays with my hair.
Dancing in the backyard, movements of a feather,
buzzing bees and colorful spring weather.
105 · Feb 2020
Going to sleep.
Carolina Feb 2020
Going to bed with a kiss to give.
But instead of a warm embrace that puts me to sleep
all I get is a weep that weighs on my lids.
102 · Feb 2020
Only in my head.
Carolina Feb 2020
All the poetry inside of me
burns down to nothing,
just like the love I felt,
just like the dreamed I dreamed.

Once again I have failed,
I have reached a dead end,
love is only in my head.
101 · Apr 2020
Headed to nowhere.
Carolina Apr 2020
The sanity slipped right through my eyes.
My heart was torn apart
and life ended by that time.

Now I'm a living dead.
Walking with a blank stare,
headed to nowhere.

Still here
even though I left months ago.
I'm absent
but my conscience overflows.
94 · Sep 2020
Not even here.
Carolina Sep 2020
Never there,
absent mind, empty eyes.
I try to reach out
but you have no sight.
Your drooling stare,
fixed on the screen,
my voice is on mute to your ears.
I'm not even here.
91 · Apr 2020
To find a place.
Carolina Apr 2020
No need to eat.
No need to sleep.
My body's kicking me out of it.
Can my soul find a place?
Will it wander lost for ever?
Carolina Jul 2020
Drained from love,
drained from desire.
My heart has lost its fire.
I came in one piece
and left as a ghost.
I'm always the one
who loves the most.
83 · Jan 2020
Places.
Carolina Jan 2020
I touched the wood of the door,
slipped my fingertips through it.
It opened without being knocked,
I doubted, I looked, I'm in.
83 · Sep 2020
Try to hunt me.
Carolina Sep 2020
Did you really thought
I'd be the deer for you to hunt?
I'm the roaring lion
that'll rip your beating heart out.

Wasted time,
wasted youth.
Was this the path I had to go through?
