Moonbeam shines
That hurting moment inside
When you realize
You’ve finally met your
Demise
Lye Apr 2019
Freezing rain pelts my head
And dampens my clothes
But the only thing
That stays untouched
Is my love for you
I went out to dinner with my mom, my dad, and my twin little brothers a few days ago, and it went great! The story behind this poem is that as we were leaving, it was raining and it was really cold, and I was waiting for my dad to put my brother into that car to say bye. I was freezing, but I couldn’t go away yet.

She walks
Confident
But…
Her black leather boots
Are all scuffed-up
The zippers are broken
The leather is worn
And most of the stylish ***** are torn
They are
Immensely broken
Beyond repair
Like her soul
But
She keeps on walking
And she will
Until she finds
Whatever it is she’s looking for
And nothing
Will ever
Get her to take those
Broken,
Torn up,
Ripped to smithereens boots
Off of her feet

I pick up the lonesome-looking guitar
And loosely strum the strings
To my surprise, I hear nothing
But instead
I see a dazzling red
Dancing along the floors
And crawling up the walls
Enveloping me
In a fiery embrace
But the red soon fades,
To light pink…
Then nothing
And I am returned to the dark cavern
I move my fingers in confusion
To strum another note
And low and behold,
The most extraordinary blue-green
Flies around the dark room
Turning it bright
I feel it caressing my skin
Bringing smiles
To even the tiny hairs on my arms
Oh, what a magnificent instrument!
This could bring such joy to the word
If only
People had been worthy enough
To see it
Having a case of poet’s block, so I’m just posting a bunch of poems I’d forgotten about.

I’m underground
Buried
Motionless
Soundless
Senseless
But I can feel something
Bubbling beneath the surface
Then…
Hot lava flows through
And fury breaks free inside of me
I claw open the wooden coffin
And dig my way up to the surface
I rip the grass covering the wet soil
And emerge
At last I am free
At last I can feel
At last I can scream
As loud as I desire
I am no longer under
I am on top
Of
The
World

You
Yes, you
Let me tell you something
You can do anything
You are strong
You are beautiful
And most of all,
You are unstoppable
You can do whatever you put your mind to
Because you
Are
You
And no one could ever be you
You are the only person exactly like you on this planet
Use it to your advantage
Be
The amazing,
Beautiful,
Talented,
Loved person that I know you are
