Colorful
Erian Rose Feb 2020
Colors are just colors
What's the point
of hiding the rainbow
in a world full of grey?
So this is me coming out. I'm a Trans FTM and Gay.
Love is love <3

light in the night
Erian Rose Feb 2020
Together
We can make it through
Push past the rough, face our fears
Runaway from here
Make our own light in the darkness
And live our lives
No matter how far apart we are
We can make it through
Together

From loving you

chasing hearts
Erian Rose Jan 2020
We'd stay up till midnight
Chasing the words in our hearts
As we long for the kiss
To never tear us apart
Over and over again

fast forward the time
Erian Rose Jan 2020
Our love is different
Random and weird
But every moment spent
Makes me love you more

I'll spend forever with you
To be in your arms
While you kiss me
In the future we make

Dear Judah,
Erian Rose Jan 2020
You make me feel so much
I can't wait to be with you
No matter how far the distance
Or the hardships throw
We can get through this together
With love in our hearts
Forever and always
I want to be with you

You make me feel so much
That no other could compare
It's hard to explain
You're the reason I keep smiling
Dreaming about the day
When all will come together
Forever and always
I want to be with you

You make me feel so much
Living in a world of far away
But for the distance
I can see us living free from harm's way
While we hold each other safely
Forever and always
I want to be with you
And never ever
Want to stop loving you

You complete me
In so many ways no other could
filling the cracks in my heart
With blossoms of roses on my cheeks
And a beating heart too quick to beat
This love won't be easy
But we can survive
Dancing in the rain
And finding comfort in our embrace

I love you
Past the moon
Past the stars
To the edge of the universe's reach

With love,
Erian ❤

Please
Erian Rose Dec 2019
When I hear our song
When I walk across town
When I lie awake at night
I think of you

When the girls talk of you in the halls
When the smile blooms from your lips
When the school day ends
I hear you in my head

When I glare at the empty pen and paper
When I sink in the crystalized snow
When I pretend you don't exist
I see our memories form from my eyes

All the pain you caused
Unknown from your heart
While it shattered mine
Every waking day

But you'll never read these poems
About how much I still find myself
Loving you
In this broken heart, you have torn apart
I still smile
Find the light
Because I don't want to let you down.

Hearts in two
Erian Rose Dec 2019
Bloodstained skin
Isn't the answer
For a heart broken in two
One of my friends is thinking of leaving - for good. I don't know what to do. I really care for them but they think life isn't worth it anymore. I need help.

I'll wish for you
Erian Rose Nov 2019
Into the evening dusk
The steady beat of the trumpets ring about
Next time
As I gaze up upon the stars
I'll wish for you
While they hurry down from the sky

Though, I know
You'll never be mine.
An ode to the one who I know will never see me as more than a friend.

Rolling Hills
Erian Rose Nov 2019
Somewhere across the stars,
Racing in the night,
I saw your face as it beamed back at me,
Rolling upon the hills so high.
We'll take flight someday,
As we soar through the fields of butterflies,
A song dancing in the night,
While watching the stardust in your eyes.
Something about the way you smile,
When the mountains tumble by your window.
It's you and me forever
This frosty midnight.
PUBLISHED POEM
Will be published in late June by the Live Poets Society of NJ

Teenage Satellites
Erian Rose Nov 2019
Somehow, the song always reminds me of us.
As teenagers lost in a sea of stars,
We plummeted so far.  
Crashing through the air.

Our hearts burning in kindle fire.
Waves couldn't ruin the flare.
Abandoned in the frozen twilight,
I would think of you as I gazed above.

When the memories come back,
It's all us and what we make it.
Our dreams of being astronauts,
While sailing a spaceship away from here.
Let's run away, let's go and waste another year
Let's spin apart while racing through the atmosphere
We tumble through the night, we burn so bright
We're teenage satellites

We were kids
Erian Rose Nov 2019
We were kids then
racing far and wide
Our imagination captured the moon
Chasing stars like fireflies

We held our pinkies
As we watched the meteor shower that eventide
Counting down the days
Till the constellations caught our eyes

We were kids then
loving a day as if forever
The universe had no chance
Against our star-crossed, endless kiss

We were kids
Connecting the galaxies into place
But now we're older
And the puzzles in the sky don't stand a chance

Them
Erian Rose Nov 2019
They watched each other’s footprints tremble against an entangled bliss, captured in fond devotion of those they wished to miss. The sirens rang but they whose hearts crumbled down their walls. Different lengths as the story did sing. Their melody’s patching from the grasp in the moonlit dawn.
Nothing as though sang the same, as their fervor drew them at the closest reach. A notice so unseen, depth by emotions too far to be unscathed.
Unnoticeable, as they, farther and farther as the weakening sun.
Broken hearts waiting for them, but mended into one.

Never ending
Erian Rose Oct 2019
I didn't hear what you said
But that smile
That smile makes it so easy for me
To drown in a feeling never to come true

an early Christmas
Erian Rose Oct 2019
Snowflakes glistened in the evening snow
Is it already Christmas?

Trees blanketed in the white powder
People all around walking hand-in-hand
While snowballs soared over the gentle sun

Icicles hung in a shimmery glaze
Candycorn turning to candy canes
holiday wrapping hitting the shelves
And stores decked out in reds and greens

Is it already Christmas?
Your crystal eyes gleam under the mistletoe
I couldn't help but smile and hope
That this is true

Is it already Christmas?

Dancing in the Moonlight

The moon danced on our fingertips
Clenched in our fists
If it wasn’t for this
I’d be hypnotized by your kiss

is this what we call love?
Erian Rose Oct 2019
Let the story free
Inside your eyes
Shining like a million suns
Falling from the night

In the dazzling shores
The sky fell from sight
Leaving but a trace
Of what’s hidden deep inside

Is this what we call love?
Dancing with fireflies up above
Is this what we call love?
Forgetting what we lost

You’re the risk that’s worth taking
Setting the atmosphere on flare
If the world spun in sequence
We could find each other’s stare

I wish I could promise
What’s been hidden from the start
But as soon as the stars tumble
I’ll be by your side

Is this what we call love?
Dancing with fireflies up above
Is this what we call love?
Forgetting what we lost

Secrets meant to last forever
Splitting at the touch
When a single hold isn’t enough
Cradling a flame in the dust
Your the one grasping all my might
When I’m with you
Nervously hoping that we’ll be enough

Is this what we call love?
Dancing with fireflies up above
Is this what we call love?
Is this what we call love...

Your Smile
Erian Rose Oct 2019
Your smile
It's something that no one else can compare

Your laughter
It brings out my worries and pains

If only you knew how much
You make my stomach flutter

I can't help it
Falling for your smile

a space between spaces
Erian Rose Sep 2019
the space between
a sea of stars
dancing high
gliding far

the space between
a world
full of scars
stitched together in my heart

a space between
the unknown and true
leaving me restless
leading me straight to you

but a space between spaces
wasn't that far
for us to cross borders
on runaway stars

the space between spaces
isn't that far

Drunken Love
Erian Rose Sep 2019
You let me fall when I trusted you
Not that I can’t blame you
You knew too well how I felt
By crushing my heart while I was asking for help
You notice me, I know
Turning your head every now and again
Don’t you ever wonder what goes on in my head?
Or do you just want to look at a person,
Crumbled in your reach?

I get it...
You mean well
Shining in the spotlight
While I’m sunken below
Drunk on a useless thought
That’ll you’ll be the light at the end of the tunnel.

frights
Erian Rose Sep 2019
Crow’s sung in the wakening night
Causing ghosts and ghouls to stir up a fright
Kingdoms broken down in ominous sight

A moon drowned in red
Hanging on by a thread
Scarecrows wandering from field to field
A night escaping by echoing cries

Where the black cats pounce through dusk
Where witches laughter is cold to the touch
A whisper heard in the atmosphere
Halloween is near

Erian Rose Sep 2019
All the poems
About the love
About the sorrow
About the broke and hollow
Were all about one
An "I love you" over again
I knew one day it would end
But kept trying to convince myself that it would last.

Collision Course
Erian Rose Sep 2019
He walked past skyscrapers and city lights
Passing the school every night.
"I'll still be here," He mumbled into the dusk
While asteroids blazed overhead.
Days followed by
In a solar system, running down.
The more he looked up -
The more he felt like gravity was letting loose
"Someday, somehow, we'll collide."
Forever hoping,
It was who they were.
They were on a collision course.

We're just friends
Erian Rose Sep 2019
I know you don't like me
You don't like guys like me
But I like you
more than you'd ever know
I guess friends are all we'll ever be.

A dream unlike any other
Erian Rose Sep 2019
Fields flood high of corn stalks
As we drove along with the country roads
Leaves splattered pathways in a vibrant tint
Electrifying the crisp air around us
Pumpkins grinned softly
Nesting in beds of acorn heads

Fall couldn't be any better
Than watching out the window
And laying my eyes upon the setting sun
While apple cider and spice linger in the ether
Protected in your sweater
Sep 2019 · 604
It'll always be you
Erian Rose Sep 2019
the voices change
but my love
beats the same

from across the room
Erian Rose Sep 2019
maybe someday
we'll find each other
making wishes
and counting stars

when we lookup
watching the moon
maybe we'll see one another
with all our flaws
all our scars
all our broken promises
all our fears

maybe someday
we'll find each other
making wishes
and counting stars

i love you for who you are
there's no where else i'd rather be
than in your arms
Sep 2019 · 443
I promise

Counting the Moon
Erian Rose Sep 2019
I can count your name a million times
From fading stars to sunrise
There's nowhere I'd rather be
Under the sun's shining gloom.

If meteorites faded upon the ground
If the moon danced, crumbling down
If the galaxy was safe and sound
Would you stand there with me
Under the sun's shining gloom?

If we sank beneath the sea
If the world's turned upon our reach
If we watched Earth plummet underneath our feet
Would you stand there with me
Under the sun's shining gloom?

Or would we drown below the blue?
Would you pull away, as you do?
Would you pick up the pieces, lathered in glue?
If we stood under the sun, blazing like crystals in the dew
Would we fall apart?
Or is it too soon?

Hurricanes
Erian Rose Sep 2019
Your poison seeps into my veins
Crashing in like hurricanes

Every bone numbs and shakes
By the sound of your name

When you see my face in scattered rains
You end those hurricanes

Universe in a bottle
Erian Rose Jul 2019
I write the notes
Every day
Looking up
At what never be

I write the notes
Hoping you’d see
Capture the universe
Flying away

I write the universe
Every day
Dreaming upon the stars
Every word a stray

Catching the stars like fireflies
Filling bottle by bottle
I can only hope you’d see
My little universe in a bottle
I’ll give to you someday

Kingdom of Light
Erian Rose Jul 2019
Watch the stars
As they shine for you
Twinkling in the darkened hue
Battles raging against the sky
Heights gazing past our eyes
No matter what they say
You illuminate the world
Brighter than the constellations gleam
After all
The universe can’t compete against you
In a sea of darkness
Engulfed by light
“Remember to reach for the stars, and they won't be able to resist flying into your hands!“
