Is it the way I speak?
Is it the color of my skin?
Is it the way I talk?
What is it that makes you not want to date me?
Is it because I talk in riddles?
That doesn’t make your heart fiddle?
Is it the way I laugh?
Is it the way of how my skin looks?
What is it that makes you not want to date me?
Is it my hair?
My music taste?
Is it my face?
Is it my body?
Is it because I’m not that feminine?
Or is it because I show my heart out on my sleeve and end up with a broken heart each and every day?
What are you looking for?
Hiding behind laptops and computers like it’s your home.
Saying words like they’re going to make a difference.
Faking every word that you say to get what you want,
When I know they’re just lies
On top of
Lies
On top of
Lies.
Why?
Cylia Mar 2019
All of these hate that I get from people
Disinterested in me, I get it.
All of these lies that are trapped inside my mind
I don’t need an example, no really I’m fine.
Cylia Sep 2018
All these feelings in my head,
All these words left unsaid,
All of these memories with you in it, how can I ever forget.
All I see are fragments and pictures that clouds my judgements instead.
How can I be so worried?
When all I see is your face,
Clouding every shattered piece, a cold stare is left in your place.

All these feelings like lava,
Erupts when needed to burst
All of these feelings I can’t control,
And yet you’re the one holding my soul.
It glows a vibrant violet blue,
And while you hold onto mines,
I’m snuggling onto yours like an icy shield or more like an igloo.

All these feelings held by your warm embrace
tucking me away,
Forehead kisses telling all I need to know, that you got me, protected by your arms,
In a closed box, where no one can hurt me.
Cylia Jul 2019
You don’t understand me at all,
You say you understand me but all you’re doing is making assumptions and seeing what you want to see,
You say that I’m different from every other girl,
That I speak with a heart of gold that not even you could ever bare to hold.
But what’s worse is that I didn’t fight for you at all,
I didn’t try to get you back even though you pushed me away,
I didn’t text and communicate why I was acting that way,
Instead I stood there like a statue wasn’t taking anything serious because when I’m really interested in someone I seriously can’t find the words to talk.
When you told me why I don’t like to talk,
All I did was laugh under my breathe and waited for the conversation to pass but all I really needed to do was speak and yet,
I couldn’t even do that.
Confused you were.
Tight lipped, closed shut,
I felt no connection when I slept,
in your arms.
Why am I like this?
Why can’t I talk?
Why do I do this,
to this heart for only guys I genuinely  like?
Cylia Aug 2018
What is wrong with the music I listen to?
Did you even catch all the feelings through?
Aren’t you sad and mesmerized too?
Tell me again, why am I hanging out with you?

What is wrong with the way I dress?
Yet, you come out looking like a complete mess.
While, I have my own style trying to look my best.
Tell me again, why am I hanging out with you?

What is wrong with the way I have my hair?
My mom gave me this hair, do you just not care?
What if I made fun of your hair, would you be able to bare?
Tell me again, why am I hanging out with you again?
Cylia Oct 2018
They sweet talk me, says lovely words...
But when will they’re words slowly become actions?
Texting behind closed doors isn’t what I want...
Closeness is what I desire,
but whenever I come close, you always run the opposite directions.
Leaving me on a high,
not wanting me to come down...
Why are you hiding from me?
Will you just come around?
Come on babe, I won’t hurt you.
Let’s take a trip to the circus and maybe say hi to the clowns.
Oh, ***, did I say something wrong?
Do you need a hug?
Do you want some protection?
I’ll give you all of me, if you promise me this one.
Don’t ever lie about your feeling or else I’ll cut you off.
First off this doesn’t relate to the poem but, who ever came up with the pretty ugly poem...genius! I love you! That is all. And secondly, I might have gone a little insane with this poem because of October...alright lol.
Cylia Aug 2019
So many thoughts running through my mind
and yet,
I can only choose just one...
Cylia Aug 2018
You call me a demon, like I'm the one wearing a mask.
Yet, have you looked around you, have you seen the truth behind your secret path?
Have you walked MY path and seen MY eyes?
Have you seen the death that I haven't seen and been told LIES?

You call me a DEMON, have you not looked in a mirror.
But is that your true face, that hides behind a DIAMOND figure
Does it make you see clearer?
All you see is yourself, but all I see is a lier.
That hides behind faces upon faces, that hides behind colored pictures
Cylia Dec 2018
you say that but it’s not.
You don’t want me to worry but I can’t.
I feel like you’re hiding something but you won’t let me in.
Cylia Oct 2018
Do you ever just feel like you wanna be alone?
With a ***** up mind that wants to explode?
That makes your body quiver at the sound of a loud bell,
Ringing in your ear waiting for life to recoil?
No? Well, I feel like that sometimes.
Cylia Apr 2019
Was the real me living in a fantasy,
While the whole world living in reality?
My head stuck in the clouds, there was no way out this place that you call hell.
Cylia Jan 2020
You think I am lying,
You think I am playing,
You think that everyone’s out here to play you
You do not know me
You don’t understand me
You think that I’m fake, how can you relate
I cannot believe that you are thinking that way
...
I’m done with the bull
Cause you think I’m a fool
You think I am only out here to get you
But that isn’t true cause I really like you
But since you think that about me,
Then well, I am thru
This poem is a bit personal, you guys can comment and ask questions of what you think about it. I don’t usually write back but I’ll try to if I can.

Imagine me in a box,
Wrapped around like a gift,
In a black and blue bow with a little bit bold that no one but you cannot hold.

Imagine me wearing black,
Nothing else but just that,
Hands on my face that is hiding my mask in front of a soul I can’t break.

Imagine you with a box,
Holding it tight like a lock,
You don’t know what’s inside but you know that it hides its emotions that rages like a fox.

Imagine you inside the box,
Taking my hands off my face,
I look towards you, my pupils in shock they couldn’t believe that it was truly the person from way back then was here,
the person from my dream that told me,
“see you soon”
and now look where we are.

Way in the present where we lived different lives and found our way back together,
my long lost lover from a different life has found me, not once, but twice like two feathers,
Who says that a devil and an angel couldn’t be forever...
Cylia Mar 2019
Mind-blown
Breathless-flight
Takes away this-lonely night
To where I can finally see the stars, the lights, they shine, on me tonight.
Cylia Aug 2018
Forget me...forget me not
Bring out the me
That no man cannot.
Your cold eyes don’t hurt me,
They pierce me and yet I see,
...I see you.

Forget me, forget me not
Figure me out or else get lost
I might be shy, but could send you cold shivers
Down your spine
Couldn’t hear a bullet trigger.

Forget me...forget me not
Yes, I betrayed you
But you betrayed me, several times
How should I feel?
...what should I have done?
Nothing...
Cause what’s the point in even caring.

Forget me, forget me not...
Why are you hidden?
Your body looks pale, looks frostbitten.
Like you’re falling apart
Meaning our love is forbidden.
...the story isn’t supposed to be like this...
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be written.
Cylia Dec 2019
Friendship is key, I love it that way,
Mostly because you’re not a bad dream,
You’re not a made up person that I made from far away,
But someone I met online.
Friendship is key, I should’ve started like that,
I should have called us best friends and not wanted anything more,
Now look at us,
Separated, because of all of my bad habits,
Made me repeat the same thing.
Friendship is trust, why was I so blind,
Maybe because I was lonely inside,
Maybe because I knew you wouldn’t be mine-okay I gotta stop that,
Especially since we haven’t met yet,
And to be honest now, since I’m shedding my skin, I’ve never really ever had a hot friend.
Cylia Apr 2019
Have you ever had a dream where it was nothing but darkness? Nothing just nada that you knew it was over?
Have you ever been so broken to where you were more than being done? Like all the walls that you can ever think of, broke away by a single touch?
Have you ever seen someone that you thought was going to last forever? But he didn’t wanna get to know you because your personality shifted courses?
Have you ever wanted to cry but the tears wouldn’t come out? All the emotions you try to hold back trying to not think about the cause?
Have you ever been an INFJ where nobody knows what you’re thinking? Caught between two mirrors, one of them happy and the other just mad?
Have you ever been in any of those situations that caused you any grief? Cause mines were brutally honest and I really, really, really just want everything to drop dead.

Your face is hidden between rocks and pebble and yet you still look so beautiful.
Your crimson-red sends shivers all around me and yet, I see nothing but pureness shaping your heart...bea-u-ti-ful heart.

Colorful pieces surround us and yet no one is looking
We are all alone, in this dungeon that’s surrounded by nothing but thickness
...all-alone darkness.

Waving a heavy heart,
My body can’t take no more, worrying about the debt you’ve paid, that keeps my breathe longing for.
And yet you’ve stayed by my side,
holding on until I die.

Beautiful heart and soul; when you look at me I smile.
When I’m all alone, I don’t say a word,
I just sit around in darkness until you come and take my pain.
Longing on until my heart stops pounding,
Breaking every twine or snickers until I rust and die into nothingness...
And yet, even when I have died, your soul have stuck by mine.
Even when I have hidden my eyes, you knew what colors they were...
They were yours...right from the beginning.
Cylia Oct 2018
Why does my heart feel so out of place?
Like the walls closing in, no room for space.
Not able to breathe, my hands on my face.
So wide awake, I can't even blink.
But is this a dream? I can't even think.
It's so cold, but where am I though?
Lost in a crate, nowhere to escape.

I know this isn't a trick.

My mind is corrupted, the pictures are blank.
Tainted, stained, I think I've been framed.
Nowhere left to go, I guess I'll just go with the flow.
Looking out below, while my life goes slow.
There's no door nor there are floors.
No back way nor front.
Looks like the walls have been torn.

I know this isn't a trick.

My life is like a roller coaster.
Plastered onto a poster.
Please, don't come any closer.
Cause this poem is far from over.
I don't believe in my mind.
All the words, they seem to want to bend.
All the numbers I find, always wants to stop at ten.

I know this isn't a trick.
So why not just end it real quick?
You think you are really slick?
My life not a movie screen.
There's nothing here that you haven't seen.
It may seem like a mess.
But mostly everything is clean.
Cylia Mar 2019
my heart that is pained,
all of these hate that I have obtained,
what do you see, that I clearly do not,
that causes everyone around me to break, crack, snap?
Fear me not, that I am not cold,
I am not bitter, nor tainted nor stained,
I am but kind, sweet, and loyal,
but twist my words around and I promise I won't bottle.
Bottle it up inside that's been wanting out,
Bottle up inside that even demons can't fight,
Bottled up inside that leaves the angels alone,
not even you could tame my differences nor lift me from my throne.
Cylia Feb 2019
Inside I’m lively, outside I’m deadly
All around my body
I’m messy, I’m carefree.
Inside I’m fine, outside I’m happy
Everyone around me
Keeps falling, keeps breaking
Inside a key lies
Outside a key hides
All of the things that I thought real
Hidden
but barely
Forgotten
quite fairly

Inside I’m lively, outside I’m deadly
No one out there can figure me out clearly.
Cylia Oct 2018
The face that I wear, is it real?
The smile that I put, instead of fear,
When I laugh all alone, is it me?
Or
Is it pain that I feel really deep?
The pain that I feel, does it ache?
The life that I live, will it make her happy?
Or
Will it shrivel up and die at my feet?
Will the ice crack below underneath?
Can I stop overthinking over things?
The face that I wear, isn’t me.
Hidden behind mirrors
The face that I wear, is it real?
Cylia Jan 2019
10,000 words written in one word.
Can’t blame myself of what I feel.
Or what I say, I can’t complain.

These words that flow,
straight out of my head.
I can’t complain, it’s who I am.
Cylia Aug 2018
The devil is weak,
Trying to speak.
I don’t believe-That the words that he say,
Can keep me upbeat,
And could really delete,
Me, from this world that I hate, but also love, till the day I leave,
Then I’ll soon be complete. More than free.

I leave it be.
For when I do speak,
that all of these words are orderly said and doesn’t cause havoc and destruction that clumps up inside my head.

Throw my heart in a locket,
But I'll hide it real deep in your pocket,
And maybe one day you will find it,
and hold me real close where you won't loose it.
Cylia Aug 2018
Why do I keep texting, when I know he’s not going to answer?
My thoughts are telling me to challenge myself and yet my heart isn’t having butterflies.
I never listen to my girlfriends I guess that the reason why,
But could not being myself really be the answer.
                             I like deep conversations
         I like to think we’re becoming friends.
But I guess when he finally blocks me, then I’ll then learn how annoying I am.
      I guess the way that I am, I can’t change that.
         But finding the right guy, he’ll love that.
Cylia Feb 2019
All of these thoughts keeps quivering
                    Melting my bones quite vividly
                               Laying right down very         quietly
                     Eyes barely opened
                                                        My­ mind
                                                is always
                                                            roam­ing.
Why bother in keeping them all in?
         When my mind is almost falling
                         Boiling down into nothing
Like a puzzle piece, it’s breaking...
          In my mind I can hardly speak
My body, vibrating
My veins, left shivering
And yet I keep repeating all of these woah’s in high places
All of these unidentifiable faces
Deja vu, mistaken
                              by
                                   dreams
Masked into reality
Deluded by poVeRTy
UnderSTANDing the world with a mEssed uP society
...And then you figure out that you’re only caught up in a daydream made up by you’re own twisted fantasy-
W     A      K      E        U     P    !
you told me,
s   l   o   w   l   y
where I can hear you
calmly, so patiently,
Words that left me unknowingly unpredictable and yet I can’t stop talking,
Where that wordplay, I wouldn’t say uncomfortable
But more of a delicacy and yet...
                                                         I melt.
Slowly.

Black eyes,
Makes me cry,
Shattered bones,
Up my spine,
All that I see are emotions,
Clouding my thoughts like the ocean.
Clouding my thoughts I can’t help it,
By the time I come to, I’ll be out it,
Like the time that goes by like a diamond my mind like the days that I bring brings me comfort.
My soul inside feels you coming,
Like a storm raging in like an earthquake,
But it couldn’t been you, you’re thoughts aren’t that deep,
So whose thoughts are those that are screaming?
I guess my mind still runs wild
Cylia Aug 2018
Why do I struggle in bed?
I feel like my body wants to jump out of my skin.
Why do we think about things?
That makes our brain wants to jump out of our heads.
Lost in my thoughts, all of my patience          and waiting
and waiting for you to come in.
I don’t want to be here, not even hell could create a cage that can hold all my sins.
Why do I struggle in bed?
By the way how my covers look, seems I was dancing instead.

All of these strings,
Abandoning me.
        Tucked away, stored
         Creating new ways they can trigger me.
                Into thinking
                    I’m  breaking
           And yet create tangles inside of me.
Why do I struggle in bed?
     Why must you make nightmares out of rawness and sweat?
         Everynight I wake up, it’s like my body is soaked.
                           Drenched.
Why do I...why do I... keep having nightmares in bed?
Cylia Apr 2019
Most of what you tell me is beauty beyond words
And the words that you cherish and keep to yourself,
Lonely you are but you never show it,
Instead you hide it closely to your heart until you barely know me
Close your eyes, you tell me
Hold me close, I did
Inside you’ll see the real me underneath all these closed doors.
Cylia Aug 2018
Should I tell him,
Or should I wait?
Should I hold them in,
Or should I break?
I can’t take the wait no longer,
It’s like my heart is catching on fire.

Should I tell him,
Or should I wait?
My body can’t take the stake
My hands, they shake, like my body is going to cause an earthquake.

Should I tell him,
Or should I wait?
By the time, I think I’ll break
Throw up and have a headache
So tired of all this heartbreak..
Cylia Aug 2018
Shy but bold you make me,
Tripping on off of my words.
Sleepy nights but night owl,
Underneath the stars I look.
Stuttering mess I got you,
Eyes that are grey in some ways.
Feeling a connected soulmate,
But loving you will never be easy.

Worried we were when we found you,
Lost lusting looming behold you.
Desiring that doesn’t bestowed upon you,
My long lost love I love you.
Bold but shy you told me,
Worrier that leaves me discovering.
Protector but possessive you are,
Romping my insides that awakens me.
Cylia Mar 2019
So what if I hide away my true feelings.
So what if everyone in the world hates me.
So what if my life is a mess,
At least I’m out here doing my best.
Cylia Mar 2019
Can I ever go back, from the first day that we met?
Can we ever turn back, the last time on the clock?
Cause I don’t know what I did wrong because you closed me off.
Because you shut me down, never ever hearing from you again.
Because the fun was gone you lost interest in me,
What did I do wrong?

I feel, I melt
I run, too fast
Into the light that shines,
Just right,
I bring, myself
My being, my soul
To break me...all of me,
To frain from my grave
Tonight
Cylia Mar 2020
I’m calling your bluff,
You act like you’re tough,
By why aren’t the words,
Controlling your motives,
That gets stuck in a lotus,
That you can’t get out of,
That you can’t get by,
That leaves me so scared,
That I only trust fear,
That’s running down tears,
Down my face leaving stains,
Creating lines that are blind,
From your motives they hurt,
From the start to the end
That’s where they usually begin,
But I’m not gonna act,
Like I don’t see the flags,
The warnings, the facts,
That you think I don’t tag,
From the words that you say,
From now then this day,
I still run away...

In flames

Cylia Dec 2018
I stand here thinking
crouching, non blinking
Up to the sky, my eyes they waver
Shades of blue and white, outside it's freezing.

Night sky, cold
Outside, I'm bold
Lights out, where
Night owl, scared.

I stand here thinking
crouching non blinking
One hand towards the stars
My mind is left chasing.
Cylia Aug 2018
You make my heart stutter
Make it go pitter patter
Like a candle light sparks
Like my heart, it never shatters.
Cylia Apr 2019
I don’t like long distance relationships, it makes me go insane. Especially since you’re 10.0 miles away from me, I think of you every single day
Cylia Mar 2019
Why is my brain so cluttered?
Filled with these feeling, I’m fluttered,
Like my body can’t take it, all of these motions,
They’re filling up
All these emotions, they’re bottled up
All these emotions, I cannot stop
But I will still keep on doing me,
No matter what compliments you give to me,
Cause the me that you knew back then,
Is way past gone, never to be seen again.
Cause to me I am not lonely,
I’m just being me
&
that’s all I need.

I stand alone,
thinking
Next to a wall,
that’s already about to just fall
And I’ll imagine myself,
flying
Out in the sky,
Beneath the moon,
out at night
And I’ll hear the wind,
saying
Everything is going to be,
alright.
Cylia Sep 2018
Memories lost in a letter
By night underneath the stars
I look upon them, thinking.
Cylia Dec 2018
Words caught in my lungs.
can't breathe, no one but me.
Eyes to lazy to see
but the world has taught me to stand correctly,
perfectly still where the darkness can't touch me.
To where I can't hear the whispers behind me.
To where all the yelling and screaming have left my body.
Cylia Aug 2018
Everyday I see your face...
Like a repetition, I can’t escape...
You keep me safe with every stare...
But when I look your way you disappear...
Like you were never even there.

Rocks that shatters in the palm of your hands with no pressure done to it.

Sand pouring out of your hands leaving without saying goodbye.

Instead return standing, turning around and seeing a reflection of someone else.

You smiled and laughed knowing everything’s fine and that everything’s gonna work out okay.
