true loneliness is the one felt in crowded rooms
things only you understand, not enough words in the
dictionary nor a phrase to explain the tumbling uncontrollable
down fall everything you love starts to fall in.
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
i hate your friends they pretend
they understand you even when you make
no sense. they *****-up every punchline
and scrutinize all the simple things.

yea,i hate your friends
with there pretentious ways.

silhouette
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
like two shadows intersecting,
we were flawlessly connected
I embedded my emotions into
every conversation
but time took us apart like it's
own creation
leaving me without you.
we face the sun but we cast separate shadows.

longing for a responce
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
lying silently awake on the laced carpet of my floor
waiting for the notification to the appear and chill me to the core,
But love you wouldn't understand the way my hand trembles in your hand
when you look me in the eye and all the demons in me morn.
It is no questionable truth that i would fight through hell for you
to just love me once more.

Moonlight sight
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
Soon after the sun has
Gone away the sky
Doesn't sleep neither
Do the memories,
Tinkering at the wires
Of my brain.

life is gathering material
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
Staggering around lazy like in
The four walls of my room
Trying to construct situations.
Digging up past memories
Linking them together
Layering them
Placing reason
Gathering material
Then writing
Then staggering around lazy like in the four walls of my room.
Keelyn Mac Jul 2014
It was nice while it lasted
but I'm afraid to be left
searching for answers you never gave
I can't tell you how much I would love to
talk to you until my phone heats up
against my cheeks
I would love to go back to the time
I'd wake up realizing we never hung up
before we fell asleep
but the pain when you wouldn't respond to text
or answer when the phone rings
lasted longer then the time we would speak.
so goodbye,
it was nice while it lasted.
not my best,but it's how I felt.

you me and an old shirt.
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
You were the best mistake I ever made,
I surrendered myself and let you in.
When im with you,
I wear my smile like an old shirt
I try to hide the stains.
Was I wrong all along?
Did I sing the wrong song?
Or was I just out of tune?
When I surrendered myself to let you in.
That was the best mistake I've ever made

a brittle smile
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
I don't wanna seem so fragile so I cover
My pain with a smile im sure everyone can
See the seams
where I stitched up all the
Broken parts of me.
But im sorry, even with all stitched up pieces I
still
don't
Feel
                      complete.

I never practiced tearing my own heart out
Neither did I practice ignoring the shine of
the stars but i found myself suffering to let go of your hand
to detach from the embrace of your arms.
And thought maybe if I did.

This goodbye
wouldn't be so hard.
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
Can we empty ourselves out
And go through the mess.
We haven't spoken in awhile
And trying to forget
Is not an option,
So for the first time in a long time,
Can we pretend we just met
And empty ourselves out
And go through the mess.

I wore a sweater,
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
Do you remember when I walked to your house that summer?
It was vegas in july, and I wore a sweater,
I had a backpack full of tea and a mind full of last winter.
Do you remember that winter when I walked to your house?  
It was vegas in December and I wore a sweater, I had a backpack filled with tea
And no place to be but with you that Christmas eve.
You clung to my sweater
I knew you'd remember.
I love you.
This was written for my best friend I haven't seen/spoken to in awhile.
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
When you're sure no one else loves you,
You said you'd be mine.
Thanks for giving me hope,
But I was never comfortable standing
at the end of a buffet line.
So what ever scarps you have to offer,
Im gonna have to decline.
Im sure when no one loves you
neither will I.
Keelyn Mac Jun 2014
The music won't block out the thoughts,
No matter how loud the volume.
My poems no longer heal me internally.
No matter the scheme.
So what's the the point of it all.
Nothing no longer fulfills me.

drowing in liquid
Keelyn Mac Apr 2014
My heart is leaking, my heart is pouring out and I sit on the shore of it all. Tearing myself apart and skipping the pieces across
The ocean of its fluid hoping one day I drown entirely in my pain.

the topic of the weak.
Keelyn Mac Apr 2014
Wouldn't say that im suffering without you
But certainly, sad songs are knives to these flesh and bones.

(her)
Keelyn Mac Apr 2014
I haven't heard from you in awhile
But you still cross my mind
I haven't spoken to you in awhile
But I bet you're doing just fine.

slow it down
Keelyn Mac Feb 2014
lets slow it all down.
watch the skies drag these clouds.
let the ocean carry our worries as we
lay on the shore and share our stories.    
Let the world race to the the top of the
highest green mountain lie, ****, and deceive
for materialistic values
we sit on a park bench and wait for the
sun to introduce the stars

I've lost it
Keelyn Mac Jan 2014
I'm not what I used to be, a dreamer whose ambition for
writing was bigger then he can hold. Now I cant
even write about love.the type of love that makes your worries melt away
with the touch of two opposing hands breath taking poetical love
that men and women part seas to find.
I've lost that feel. I've lost the greatest gift, curiosity.
Curiosity like the feeling of wrapping paper on Christmas morning
as you find your name signed on decorative box.
i'm not what I used to be so ill end this here.
hope you understand I am not the dreamer I thought
I was i'm just a man stuck in a web of his own mind.

prosper
Keelyn Mac Jan 2014
Sometimes I'd wish more than I'd
Try and thats equivalent to
Dreaming more then living.
Starting today im gonna live more
Then I dream so these dreams
Turn to memories.

illusionist
Keelyn Mac Jan 2014
You painted everything around me
To comfort
But I can still feel the *******
That's covered.
You **** at lying the truth leaks
From beyond your words like a magician
With roses falling out his sleeves
And I am sick of pretending I dont see.

savoir
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
Oh please ******* save me
Heavens a thousand miles away
and I dont have a dime to my name
Nor a minute to waste
Please ******* save me from this cold
Lonely place im not sure how long I can last
Or how much more I can take....

love
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
I've tried to be strong
trust me I've held on too long
I've tried to be strong
but sometimes you gotta let go
in order for it to take form.

mewithoutyou
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
you left me dangling like a puppet
on its last string
you lefts me cold
without your embrace
I may freeze
and now your standing contemplating
on everything.
why...

destine
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
I would tell you I believed in destiny
but I couldn't prove a thing
how did something so beautiful
find its way back to me.

destroy all the shadows
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
They dont think your beautiful.
She doesnt follow the trends.
Her friends are just shadows,
nothing more then a silhouettes.
Of knives that stick lies behind her back.

She is the sun, without her
there is no image.
I am just a man,
who doesn't wanna know beauty.
Because I smile every time the sun shines
and destroys all the shadows.

hope
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
I try to fold my hope and
stuff it into my back pocket.
Leaving it with the closest
thing to change...

poetry?
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
who are you to tell me what poetry is!
when you haven't seen it at all?
you never watched the sky cry,
or had the clouds fall into your mind.
While doing a math test in 5th grade
teacher whispers "your falling behind".
But your thoughts have built up to high,
you drain them with words and file them
in your time....
poetry for me is the uncontrollable will to write
whatever comes to heart.
at any given time.
poetry is a gift only the gifted have.
Keelyn Mac Dec 2013
I wrote a poem for the one
I used to love.
No I wrote my heart....for the one i used to
love.
Teacher gave me my first prompt
"write about a girl you like and describe her"
I wrote for hours starting from head to toe.
I wrote while walking side tracked when talking and
drained pens when all pencils broke.
I did my homework! for the one I used to love.
to bad I didn't turn it in would have gotten an c or above
but she liked it so much she tacked it above her bed.......
**** i think i'm in love, again.
true story...

I guess this is bad bye,
because this has gotta be the
worst bye i've had since
last night. When I scrolled down
searching for your smile and
happened to find another guy
by your side, the caption read
"best guy you can ever meet".
That's all it took for me to think
"what have I been the entire time"?
during morning messages and midnight
sweet dreams don't let bed bugs bite
and don't dream of another guy!
and if so then bad night hope
the bugs bite!...

harmony
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
love is a song that has no lyrics.
we just dance along.
putting our hearts on the line,
as if nothing can go wrong.
In our minds nothing can
go wrong.
palm to palm tangled fingers,
kindled spirits.
hearts pounding,
guitar solo,high vocal,
rock & roll, acoustic formal.
Love is a song we can all
sing along to.
love is played by the heart and sung by the spirit..

words
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
for the first time I have found the words.
knew what i needed to say
plan is to take your breath away
and maybe steal your heart
angels will cry in happiness    
because darling I found the words
I plan on touching your soul so ready your ears
i'll ready my vocals get my throat cleared.
Will you PLEASE pass the salt!

thanks, love ya
sitting in class cooked this up for my humor.

Dollar Dreams
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
I cannot fly with these wings of dreams,
in this life dreams are weak
and the world is settled
with wings of green.
the world revolves around money and vanity, the worlds dying.

broken truth
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
Picking the shards of a broken mirror,
no matter it's shape or angle it gives an honest reflection
of the truth it is faced with.
I am a broken mirror.
I felt it, the moment I wrote it.

we dream
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
we are all searching, eyes as wide as open skies we are all thinking, minds as open as seas an oceans we are all reaching, arms stretched like the giraffe's neck. we are all dreamers.
we are all dreamers, no matter the race or skin color.

December
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
Please come back
the days are getting colder.
please don't forget
what held us together.
remember those days
skies were grey.
I adorn you,
you clung to my shoulder.

please come back,
it's cold weather
we were in love.
It was December
I am lost
I am cold
I thought winter
was for lovers.

Blues
Keelyn Mac Nov 2013
bird perched on a branch sang
the blues giving a beautiful tune
to his bad news
he cannot fly but
long as he can sing he'll
be perched on that oak tree
next to my room singing broken hearts
compared to broken wings
but healing the wound

— The End —
