Bloody Bliss
Eli Sep 2019
Why do I like revenge?
Why does the blood that drips down so, satisfying?
Why does watching other people, who’ve pained me, hurt, feel so good?
If we’re supposed to all hold love in our hearts,
Why do some drip black poison?
ngl this one kinda edgy tho

You
Eli Aug 2019
You
I want to feel pure raw passion
I want to feel burning sensation
I want to feel the stars collide
I want to feel heavens blue fire
I want to feel celestial affection
I want to feel red waves of love crash on my heart
I want to feel the sun licking my skin
I want to feel dazzling white electricity
I want to feel full intimacy
I want to feel you.

Summer Fling
Eli Jul 2019
Headlights, electric blood in my veins
Streetsigns, driving in the fast lane
Summertime, everything has some pain
Starshine, my sorrow, my goodbye
And wait

Cotton candy clouds dripping blue in June

take the edge off
Eli May 2019
"you just need something to take the edge off"
take the edge off? no, i think you meant numb.
i hate the surge and rush and the takeoff
i love to hate it, the violent hum
emotions are the gift of the **** stars
i will keep what i earned; fighting for what’s mine
i never want to forget how it feels
to be heartbroken, to be ******* loved,
to be scared, to fight, the rush is unreal
my passion, my hurt is my beloved
dont take the life out of my corpse
take the corpse out of my life

humming
Eli May 2019
soft long wisps of light honey brown hair
caught in the wind, dance on the clouds
her soft closed lips, velvet-like sounds
the rain caught in summer air
and her legs sway to-and-fro
and her mind soars with the birds
and fence she sits on purrs
as the fuzzy melody flows
the flowers sway along to the tune
the grass; torn between emeralds and gold
May cries to her lovely sister June
the pond shakes when her foot brushes its mold
everything is whispering in tune
and though everything is new, it all feels old
hee hee :)
Eli Apr 2019
light, joy, pure, smile, free
electricity

shock, clash, change, crash, blow
flames of evolution

dark, bitter, cynical, faint
the crashing waves of rain
yeah

More than That
Eli Apr 2019
That
Desperately clinging onto hope
Falling 80 stories high

Its more than That
Crashing, ****** up into confusion
Does it show on my face?

But You
Dripping sin, leaking light
Classy orange mustang

You're more than That
Vulnerable, so hard but so soft
More than contrasts, lust, love

More than That

you made my heart uwu
Eli Apr 2019
at first, you were basic
and i didn't care

then you were expensive
and i didn't care

then you were a delinquent
and i didn't care

then you came up to me
and i didn't care

then you became vulnerable to me and only me
and i couldn't help caring

at first we talked
and i was calm

then we flirted
and i was calm
and you didn't care

then we got soft
and i got nervous

then we connected
and i fell so hard for you

then we flirted
and my heart went uwu

then we hung more
and i realized i was just a friend to you
listened to a lo-fi mix and was inspired, plus a little bit of journalling as well

Faint
Eli Feb 2019
Slap
                         Burn
                                                  Sting.
   ­                                              Leave
                          Me
Weak.
Just
                   ­      High
                                                 Five.
                                                      In
                        Low
Tide.
                   Leaving me.
                  Feeling weak.
                          ON
                         THE
                    GROUND.

Family
Eli Feb 2019
Forever connected to a bunch of selfish jerks
And the worst part is they don't really love you
Maybe they tell themselves if they say it enough
                                                                      they will
It doesn't matter, they don't have the time to love
                                                an eternal connection
Long-lasting bond of self-pity and hate based off
                                                      of a foundation of
Youth.

Playing Games
Eli Feb 2019
Wind chimes backward are like heaven in my
We cannot escape the past
So you and i will never last
"I love you" and lies were a blast
But even love, too, has it's final dance

Feeling Dizzy
Eli Feb 2019
Fire swirls in an empty black galaxy
Take your hand, and keep trying to hold on
Spinning, dancing, and popping ecstasy.
Somehow your goodbye leaves me feeling conned
And angels swoop down and cut out my tongue
Throw down your cards and a few bills and fall
Growing old with you sounds better than young
Every day, playing, just being your doll.
And the thorn you take comes from roses of red.
Eyes are windows, and yours are dark night skies.
Feeling like I'm dying but never dead
Snow is falling, you keep me warm with lies
Jumping off headfirst, crashing on concrete
Running in circles, missing ev'ry beat

Ash and Ember
Eli Feb 2019
I am ash and you are an ember
your glow seems to last forever
on my own, I used to spark and flutter
but those days are now over

you are an ember, I watch your smokey dance
i light up at the sight of you, firebrand
With nothing but this blood on my hands
you help ignite my passion, my chance

Poetry
Is all I am

And the words coil around me
Like twisting snakes

But I think the snakes like me
They distort to fit the shape of me like armor

Anyone who dares come near
I unleash the snakes upon

Beautiful boundaries designed by passion
They defend me eternally

They let me hold hands with infinity
I know I know. Another poem about poems? I'm just like in this poetry high right now. I'll get to other topics in my poems later.

heart money
Eli Feb 2019
stardust fell down from her honey brown eyes
and kissed the neck of her wooden guitar
and inside her aquamarine gloom lies
truly the most ethereal gold by far
and for every single shaky breath
is worth one hundred dollars to a fool
and for every fragile thought of death
is cut exactly like a priceless jewel
her hurt worn like a 1950s fur
as she licks the rotten fruit of Eden
they rearrange her life all around her
into their own holy flower garden
she, seraph, looks up to the heavens gates
remembers how it felt, plummeting to hate

— The End —
