Lantern
deyrah Jan 2021
In the warmth of the night.
You flew past, slowly and silently
Enough to not make the leaves creak
But like a sweet loving wind, not harsh.
Just enough to make chills run down one's spine.
I loved every moment of us, you lit me up like a lantern, and continued to increase my fire output, my wick was long so it could burn.
But after I ran out of fuel.
Like the wind, you flew away!

Love became empty!

Boys cry too!
deyrah Jan 2021
I wonder if they don't see our efforts.
Just because we don't show our tears
Doesn't mean, that we have none

I wonder what they'd think of us, if we stopped lying...
They wouldn't know, that the truth will tear them apart.

I wonder what they'd do, if we stop loving them?
Would they be relieved, or would they cry??

I wonder if they'd cry after seeing our tears.
But you know...

Boys cry too!! We just smile better.

Mother!
deyrah Dec 2020
If I was a ballerina...
Swan lake, wouldn't have been able to be my only performance.
Where the sun rises, for Genesis to exist.
How can one's heart be so soft in the strongest way possible!?
My mother, isn't an angel, but I'm sure it took God two extra days to make her.
How else would you explain that.
A woman would hold so much quintessence.
Her presence makes a bad day taste like a vanilla ice cream on a summer beach.
Stella, if you decided to replace a star today.
You'd make the laws of physics confused.
Cause baby, you'd shine so bright, the sun would be like a faint candle light on a pitch black night.
Thank you for being born.
Happy birthday love!

A Girl's struggle. 04.
deyrah Dec 2020
She's too uptight, she should ease up
She's just a proud person.
"If only you knew, that she is trying to mind her business"!

She's a ****... I see her everywhere
I see her with different boys.
"Just because she decided to be free".
But how are you everywhere she is?

She's so pretty looking, nice shape too
Lovely attitude.
But why's she single??
"You didn't know, what her ex put her through."
For her to put on that smile, took hours of daily internal tears.
Respect another's struggle!!

A Girl's struggle. 03.
deyrah Nov 2020
Even with eyes like stars...
Tears still fall from them like meteor

So... he doesn't love yhu,
What a shame.
Don't, don't let him see that weakness
Don't let him preach he's lies to yhu.

It's alright to be proud.
Yhu've fallen before.

Who said Yhu're not enough?
Who said they could contain you?

You're a girl unbroken
A girl uninterrupted
So what if he doesn't see you as you want??
He's not tall enough.

A Girl's struggle. 02
deyrah Nov 2020
She didn't know what to write
On her note.

That's why her parents couldn't get
To read her suicide note!
Talk to someone.
And if yhu have a chance, listen to someone.

A Girl's struggle. 01.
deyrah Nov 2020
When she was asked to describe herself in three words.
She wept for the number of times, that she was abused.

For the number of times, people took interest in her, cause of her body.

For the number of times, she has let herself love, and got used for it

The one time she went through a bad day.
And no one asked her about it.

*Sigh, ("I need a hug" she thought)
Everyone thinks she's pretty.
"She must have lots of friends to comfort her.
All her friends want something from her!!
She walked away in tears..
No notes.

The color of love
deyrah Nov 2020
Do yhu know, when a person dies.
They lose the light in their eyes??

When a person is lonely
Yhu can tell from how empty their eyes are.
You can almost smell...
When someone's in love.

When love hits.
A sudden good morning
Would sound like trumpets blown by seraphims
Eager to taste sweet nothing.

The Color of love is painted by the heart.
Yet it's not red.

The color of love is...
Love is transparent. It gets a color when you know why you're in love.

Hypocrite
deyrah Oct 2020
I do not believe in love
But staring at ou...
Makes my butterflies reproduce

I really hate violence
But i want to beat up your ex

I don't go to church at all.
But i pray to a God, who i do not believe in
So he can keep you safe.

I really hate being spoken to.
But your voice are untold melodies to me.
And your words are food to my soul.

****!

Halloween
deyrah Oct 2020
Maybe i could trick you
Into a treat.
Or would you like us to open the night
Like candy wrappers??
Let's linger under this beautiful moon
And let's forget each other in the dark
If Halloween was a person
They'd love you.
Cause honestly, no matter how scary the night may seem.
You always put on a smile
And that's your Halloween costume!

On Another Note
deyrah Oct 2020
She said "i love you"
He smiled, then spoke about the beach house.
The cuddling, with endless kisses.
With essence of ***** smelling all around.

Changing new sheets together.
Walks at the park, holding hands and being there for each other
Dancing to their favorite songs
Cooking, and ending up not eating them.
For the fun of it.
Skipping trips to stay home and do nothing.

She said : what are yhu talking about.
He said: oh, i thought we were just listing impossible things!?

BROKEN
deyrah Oct 2020
I'm cliche....
I'm broken, not just a little.
Totally broken.
But then, even a broken mirror now shows you so many sides of yhu.
Even broken crayons still write.

And being broken has now made me see the world in different ways and aspect.

Being broken, has broken my limitations.
Way better than when i was whole.

Wholeness is boring.
I break to find new layers of me.

A date to die for!
deyrah Oct 2020
I had a date with death.
She was cold, in a warm way.

The way she spake, it was enticing
The way she carried herself.
I fell in love.

I had a date with death.
She was lonely.
But she also saw other people.

I had a date with death.
She stood me up.

I had a date with death.
And i was alone, she was there.
Alone too.
We were lonely, together.

I had a date with death.
I joined her.
And we walked the path.

We're not who we seem!
deyrah Sep 2020
All our pain is covered, by laughter.
Our tears has turned into cold sweat.
But our smile...
Our smile would give a happy person
Low self esteem!
It's not pretending...
It's a way of living, not letting life beat yhu down!

Suicidal thoughts .2
deyrah Sep 2020
At some point...
The room started to smell sweet.
Like Lucifer died in my arms.
I could taste the breeze from the window.
I could hear death.
I could smell noise,
And i could feel the cold sweat.
The rope was tighter than usual.
Hell called upon me, but heavens gate were glowing...
It comes again.

Savage!
deyrah Sep 2020
I didn't cry...
Rain drops just fell into my eyes.

I didn't die.
I just slept for a long time.

I didn't love.
I just felt i shouldn't leave you alone!

I didn't forget.
I just don't want to remember.

You're the right reason
To my wrong doings!
Sep 2020 · 66
Suicidal thoughts .1
deyrah Sep 2020
Maybe i deserve pain.
I've cried too much.
I suppose, it's why, it won't rain.
A heart that knows no gain.
Should i plull the plus,
Would it cause a riff, or would it strain
Maybe i deserve pain.
Cause all who've held my heart.
Have felt pain!
I think I'll end it soon!

You're nothing!
deyrah Aug 2020
They are not busy.
You're just, not that important!
You're not a priority!
Don't let people fool you, people who suddenly say... "I'm too busy these days"
Nah, that's trash... Yhu're not worth much to e'm!

Slave to emotion
deyrah Aug 2020
Well...
It certainly has come to this.
But no one warned me about love!
Even if they did, would i have listened??

It's lonely here
deyrah Aug 2020
Can someone...
Anyone!
Just tell me "i love you"
Even if it's a lie??
I'm in need of loving

Dedication to poets
deyrah Aug 2020
I don't do poetry 'cause i was forced to.
I don't write 'cause I've got hands too.
I don't do poetry 'cause i want attention.
I don't write 'cause I've got lyrics and dedication.
I don't do poetry 'cause i want people to see.
I don't write cause my words are as vast as the sea.
I do poetry because i can be me, and i write because in those moments.
Nothing else matters.
It's like a twisted relationship between my mind, and the universe, the ink. And the paper, it's like I'm complete, in an incomplete way.
#poetry is the essence of life

Shame
deyrah Aug 2020
You are sad when i get sad.
Sad when I'm fine.
Also sad when I'm happy!
Cause you aren't the source of any of it.

What_if
deyrah Aug 2020
What if i said i could raise the dead??
What if i said i could take your pain away??
What if i could help the angels carry your blessings for you.
What if i could answer all your prayers.
What if i could end your nights??
What if i could be in your dreams.
Make your nightmares, just mare nights.
What if...
What if i said i loved you.
Would you come to love me back?
What if i died for you??
Would all your sins fade away??
What if i was god, would you pray to me?
    ...No love here...

Don't play me!!
deyrah Jul 2020
Gave mankind will.
But want us to still do your bidding.
Sometimes, in myself, i feel like I'm not myself.
Maybe the image of self, is a delusion of one's other self.
What if i was the alter ego, and it was the real self??
What if mankind wasn't created in the image of gods,
What if gods was formed out of the image of man??
They say gods are born out of wishes.
So, tell me. Who wished first.
Are we made for gods, or were they made for us??
Cause it feels like mine has abandoned me.
Or was it i, that abandoned him??
I'm terribly sorry, if this will **** a lot of people off.

Vain
deyrah Jul 2020
According to michealangelo!
"A woman's heart has to be with god, so that a man, may seek him.
To find her"!
But what if??
Just what if... What if her god's dead??
Does that make my search in vain??
Lost love!
No love here!

Unseen!
deyrah Jul 2020
Oh look at him, always smiling about!
(But they don't know he's parents beat him to sleep)
Oh what a wonderful family, always shopping...
(If only they knew, that the home is divided inside)
What lovely couple, always holding hands.
(He secretly beats her till she turns purple)
Look at him, always spending...
(No one sees him working four jobs)
What lovely make up. Such pretty face.
(No one knows she has to do two layers of foundation, to cover those bruises)
... So ... What's your own story??
speak up... Don't let it eat you.

Beautiful mistake
deyrah Jul 2020
She was like a dimple...
Nature's beautiful deformity.
She was like a rose...
So much thorns Even Jesus wouldn't bare.
She was like a goddess...
But her gaze will petrify you like meduza!
Now she's like water...
I only expect to drown in her!

Dilemma!
deyrah Jun 2020
When you told me, that you misplaced your own key to the house!
I was a little glad and worried.
Glad cause i didn't want you to come back here anymore.
Worried cause I'd be so lost without you here!

Cups
deyrah Jun 2020
What we had was so much, like a full cup spilling over.
Look at us now.
we can't even find a cup
To contain our emptiness!

thinking!
deyrah May 2020
I'm sure breakfast in bed sounds nice.
Morning pecks and cold night cuddles, intense romance, and getting caught in moments, that leaves you breathless.
Hand gestures and french kisses.
Unending conversations, talking even about things that didn't matter.
Going on dates and even hitting on the Waiter.
So much love in the air that you caught all.
But then, please look away.
Take walks in a lonely hall.
You can't possibly have all those.
You're single!!
Just keep scrolling...

I am not a poet
deyrah Apr 2020
I am a place where all love comes...
To fail.
A place where all life come to die!
I am the poet, who never writes anything happy.
But my poems make me happy!
I am the place, where all happiness comes to an end!

Thanks
deyrah Apr 2020
Thanks to those who didn't stop me from crying. *yhu made me forget my tears.
Thanks to those who left me on the floor, *yhu thought me new ways to stand!
Thanks to those who left, *yhu made me become more independent.

Silver tongue
deyrah Apr 2020
When he was asked something honest.
He said "he had known her for a long time".
And That, she and truth aren't related.
Even down to the "you" in "i love you"
Was a lie.
When all she ever says are lies, then just walk away!

a quiet heart
deyrah Mar 2020
It was cold, extremely cold and quiet.
So quiet, you could hear the falling snows, crackle like burning wood ignited by a wild fire.
In winter!
More so that you could hear your own.
Heart beat.
That's how quiet my life was.
When you left.
Mar 2020 · 61
Hmmmm
deyrah Mar 2020
Maybe if purple wasn't a color.
No one would have noticed it,
On the right side of her face.
Apparently, it's all that's left!

All by herself
deyrah Mar 2020
She slept through the new year's day.
On valentine she ate her chocolates alone.
On Easter, her eggs didn't have colors.
Her apartment hunted her, on Halloween.
On thanksgiving, her turkey got burnt.
On Christmas eve. There wasn't any sock to hang.
Mistletoe dried up!
Isolated in her own head.
No love here!

Discovered
deyrah Mar 2020
When tolerance goes instead of love!
He knew it was time.
To call quits.
Mar 2020 · 111
And she watched!
deyrah Mar 2020
He smelled of rose petals.
In the Lilly nights.
But he died of mistletoe
In the cherry blossom nights.
Beautiful passing. No love there!

What if??
deyrah Mar 2020
What if i said...
That i could have enough love for the both of us.

Can't
deyrah Mar 2020
One can't make up for loss of sleep.
Also can't make up for lost time.
Definitely not of lost love!
You can't make up for losing me...!

Rust
deyrah Mar 2020
Do you feel it too??
The love we had, that glitter
Our memories, in a wonder!
Now it just shakes and stutter.
Like rusty nails that were depraved from water.
We are together, but we fell apart a long time ago.
We are like two people, who didn't matter...
We are separate, with love that ran cold.
In love with each other, but in a different cluster!
I love yhu, but it's just not enough.
Yhu don't make any effort.
I love yhu, but Yhu're painful!
Mar 2020 · 96
walk
deyrah Mar 2020
Maybe, if I'd just kept walking.
I wouldn't have walked into your life.
Maybe i would walk out of this pain growing like a wilde fire in me.
Maybe if I'd kept walking.
Then maybe you'd only be beautiful from afar!

Fool
deyrah Feb 2020
You know, I'm a fool for you.
It's like you know that no matter what, I'll be there for you...
Even if you ***** up!

So let me be a fool for you!

But do you know what happens to a fool when they become wise??
They stop doing a foolish things.
Things like "being there for you."
So let me be your fool!
When they take yhu for granted

deyrah Feb 2020
Let's just play pretend.

Why don't we just say we're in love.
Let's pretend till it turns into a role play.
Till it becomes a routine.
Until we actually fall in love
...
Let's just play pretend
When yhu can't seem to fall in love!
Then play pretend

Home??
deyrah Feb 2020
If home was a person not a place.
Then you were my temporary camp site...
And you made me lose my home.
Cause i spent one night with you.

Break me
deyrah Feb 2020
Sometimes... It's good that we fall and break.
So that maybe, just maybe we could be remade from our pieces!
Even shattered glass shines,
When light is Illuminated to it!
