I want to write about you, my dear
But I simply can’t find the words
You make me feel things I can’t verbalize,
I like you so much it hurts.

Everything about you is perfect,
But I cannot put it into a clear thought
I want to write your whole being
And your smile, I want to draw.

But alas, the words will not come,
And my drawing skills are far from fine
So I guess I’ll just have to remember you
And hope you don’t slip my mind
For Rujul
Lye May 2019
When I’m having fun,
People think that I forget
Forget about my family issues,
My anxiety,
But I don’t
It is engraved in my brain
An ever-playing movie
On the backs of my eyelids
I’m always thinking about it,
Sometimes,
It just bothers me more than others
It’s awful.
Lye Apr 2019
The only thing
Worse

Then you leaving
Me

Is seeing you
Look at me

With such hatred
In your eyes

Unable to see me for so long
Because of how much
I disappointed you
Lye Dec 2019
It’s snowing, and I’m happy
It’s beautiful,
Soft,
Light,
And easy.


But I know tomorrow I’m not going to be happy about it because COLD
I don’t do the cold. I just don’t.

I want to change my hair
I
  Want
            To
                 Change
                                It

I want to change myself
I
  Want
            To
                 Change
                                It

I want to change my situation
I.
Want.
To.
Change.
It.

I WANT TO CHANGE EVERYTHING

I WANT TO BE A NEW PERSON

I WANT...

I WANT...

I WANT...

I DON’T KNOW WHAT I WANT!!!

I DON’T APPRECIATE WHAT I HAVE

I SHOULD JUST SHUT UP

I LIVE A BETTER LIFE
THAN SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE

I’M
SO
*******
UNGRATEFUL
Lye Feb 2019
There are so many people
Who think that they know me
But no one actually knows me
I don’t know me
When I look in the mirror,
I don’t see myself
I see what everyone thinks I am
Happy, good life, good friendships
But really,
No one in this world understands me
Not even myself
It’s kind of sad how little people know about me.
Lye Dec 2019
Music is the sound that fills the gaps in my knowledge with beautiful lullabies to lull me into ignorance.
Sometimes I just want to ignore everything and pretend everything is okay because I’ve learned that ignorance truly is bliss.
Lye May 2019
I’m sorry
That I haven’t been posting
I guess,
My world’s just been a bit too chaotic
For me to get a word in
Even on paper


I guess
That I took an
Unofficial
Poetry
Vacation
Lye Jan 2019
I haven't really had anything to write about
Because life's been pretty good
And I feel happy
But one of the things that I love so much
Is writing poetry
And now I can't do that
Because my life is so ******* great
And I hate it
I hate it so
                so
                    so
                        so
                           so
                               much
And I'm sorry if you think I'm ungrateful
Because I'm not
I am so incredibly grateful
That I have a warm bed to sleep in at night
A fridge stocked with food
A family who loves me
But even though I've gained some sort of happiness
(is that what you call it?)
I've lost something even worse
My writing
And I have no idea how to get it back
Any advice? I really need it.
Lye Mar 2019
You’re in darkness?
I’ll be the light

Can’t find the strength?
I’ll be the fight

You’re suffocating?
I’ll be the air

Your heart is broken?
I’ll be right there
Most of the people who this is to won’t read it, partly because 2 of them can’t read yet, but I know one of them will. You know who you are. ♥️
Lye Nov 2018
My hand fits perfectly
Holding yours
And we share our darkest secrets
Behind closed doors
Your brightest smile can lift my deepest frown
And with each other
No one would ever turn us down
I cannot express to you
How much I truly love you
Me and my best friend <3

“My ******* lawyers.”
I don’t know.
My mom just said that
On the phone with her boyfriend.
She’s trying to figure out the divorce and my father is not complying.



This is the stuff I want to ignore.
I don’t really know why I wrote this it doesn’t make sense but it’s fine
Lye Mar 2019
I am strong
I’ve got this
I am in control

I’m kind
I’m loved
I deserve to be heard

This isn’t that bad
I’m not going to die
It’s just a bit of anxiety

What’s the worst thing that could happen?
Not very bad
I’m stronger than I know

I’m ok
I’m ok.
I’m ok!
What I try to think in my moments of weakness.
Lye Mar 2019
What? Oh, I was staring longingly at you from across the classroom? I'm sorry, I just love you. Have a nice day.
I don't really know what this is, but I hope you enjoy it anyways!
Lye Feb 2019
Her eyes are a canvas
Filled with tears and sorrow
Pain and self doubt
Regret and anger
But also
Those eyes know
Laughs and smiles
Inside jokes
Knowing looks
Paired with raised eyebrows
Her eyes are a filled canvas
Of beautiful green
The good and the bad
The hatred and the love
All right there
In her green eyes
About a specific someone I know with green eyes.
Lye Dec 2018
more and more people
are refusing to obey the
laws of the land

robberies
slavery
******

something isn't right...
and I know
no one can help it

it's in our blood
my blood
carried through generations
of the infected ones

because of them
it's coming
it's coming for all of us

and I can't do anything about it
for soon enough
it will get me, too
I read way too many dystopian books. I got the first 3 lines from a "random first line generator".
Lye Mar 2019
I scream and cry
I live and die
You think I’ve gone insane
And I know why

My life is a mess
Full of darkness and gloom
And all you have done
Is lock me in this room

My arms struggle
To break free of this jacket
And I bang on the walls
Wishing I had a hatchet

You know you could do more to help
But you just sit and stare
These asylums will be full soon enough
Because craziness is certainly not rare
Lye Mar 2019
Interesting
A word that can either mean
Something you are
Interested in
Or it could mean
Something bad
Or just something
That you would prefer
To not go into detail about
My life is.....
Interesting
I feel like
I could write a book
Solely about
My 12 years on this earth
And I bet you
It would be a pretty decently long memoir
Because
My life is very...
Interesting
If you want to know
What’s interesting about it
Well....
You’ll just have to get to know me
And maybe...
Just maybe....
I’ll trust you enough
To tell you all about
My interesting life
Message me, I’m bored lol
Lye Mar 2019
I’m in the dark
I don’t know anything
I can’t feel
I can’t hear
I can’t see anything
The only thing that I am sure of
Is you
You are the light in my ink-stained mind
The tiny sliver of sky
That I see in the ceiling of the
Seemingly never ending blackness
Of my heart of stone
But
The problem is
You are the one
Keeping me
In
The
Dark
My mom won’t tell me anything these days. She’s been doing things that are completely random and not telling me why. She says that she’s doing it to protect me. I think she’s trying to protect me from my dad, but I haven’t seen him in a while and I miss him. I don’t know what’s happening. Please help. I need advice desperately.
Lye Apr 2019
The most relaxed I ever am
Is when I’m alone
After chaos
Just doing something by myself
It could be the slightest thing
Just for a moment
Like running into a restaurant
To pick up food
It is so therapeutic
Why can’t I be like normal people,
And have my therapy
Be other people?
Sometimes I hate being different
Lye Apr 2019
I’m an
Introverted extrovert
That means
That I am an extrovert
Around people that I’m
Comfortable around
But I still need my
“Introvert time”
And I’m really shy
Around people that I don’t know well
So,
I’m an introverted extrovert
And it’s very annoying
Because I hate being around people
And I need to be alone
For so long
To regain my energy
Like I’ve said
Why do I have to be different?
Lye Mar 2019
Singing
Is always so much better

When I’m in unison
With you
Lye Mar 2019
I’m told you’re not healthy
To be near me

That you need to
Get better

But that doesn’t keep
My image of you

When you were
“Happy”

From overtaking my thoughts
And invading my dreams
My mom keeps telling me that my dad isn’t emotionally healthy to be near me, but it doesn’t do anything. It doesn’t stop me from thinking about him 24/7. It doesn’t stop me from dreaming about him showing up at my front door, happy. It doesn’t stop me from missing him so much it actually HURTS.

The sunset sky
Lights a fire in her eyes

The one twinkling star
Ignites a liveliness in her heart

The swaying leaved trees
In her hair brings a slight breeze

And her beautiful face
Brings a feeling of grace
To any creature willing to see
I feel like the last line and the title ties in with the fact that most adults are unwilling to see teenagers and their opinions, as they are always dismissed as “uneducated” and “childish”.
Lye Mar 2019
All these poets
Putting out
Pieces of their minds
Or rather, their hearts
Pieces broken off of the whole
Out for others to see
And enjoy
Makes me think,
Even though many of us will
Think of ourselves as introverted,
We’re all just
Wearing our hearts
On our sleeves
On Hello Poetry
Odd, isn’t it?
Just a thought.
Lye Jul 2019

Sun
Sand
Song
Peacefulness enters my soul

Sea
Sky
Shore
Waves crashing softly against my thoughts

Lazy

Lush
Relaxing without a care in the world

Love

I’ve been in darkness for so long
Holding a tiny, lit candle
A tiny glimmer of hope
I’m terrified that one day it will
f  l  i  c  k  e  r    o  u  t
And I will be in total blackness
I want to walk out
Into light
Into beauty
Into a happier life
And farther away from this darkness
Leave it behind
But...

I don’t know which direction to go...







It’s flickering.
I need to get out because my candle is burning out....
Lye Jul 2019
Acknowledge that hurting moment inside,
That hate for yourself that you can’t deny.
And know,
It will be over soon.
You will march into the light,
A graceful butterfly,
Emerging from your dark cocoon.
Into a future that is only brightened,
By each new day.
Lye Apr 2019
When the excitement of first love fades
I run away
In search of something more interesting
But with you...


I want to hold on

Will you hold on to me, too?

<3
Not true to me but I feel as if it is for some people. Hold on, some people are worth holding onto. ♥️
Lye Nov 2018
I write
I write the truth
I write what I feel
And what I don't

I write
I write about me
I write about you
Letters of truth

I write
I write my love
I write my pain
And everything in between

My writing is the closest you'll ever get to the real me
Lye Sep 2019
I like you.
But I’ll get over it soon.
I sit with you at lunch every day,
Which may make this hard,
But I need to get over you.
Nothing is ever going to happen
Between us
So I should start realizing
That I need to find someone new.
It’s just so hard
Because no matter how much I tell myself,
That I’ll never have you,
I can’t stop myself from fantasizing,
About if you were mine
And I were yours.
Lye Apr 2019
The perfect blue moon
Brings air into my lungs
And love into my heart
Know that you are my heart

Your hair blows in the wind
Swaying with the breeze
Beauty is all I see
Know that you are beautiful

My arm around your shoulders
Your head on my chest
Relying on only me
Know that you can rely on me

You staring into my eyes
A smile tempting your lips
I am so happy with you
Know that you make me so happy

Know how much you mean to me
Because you are my world
You are my light
You are the air I breathe
I love you

The first thing you do in life is love. No matter what it is, you love. Then, you find out who you are, your identity. Then, you fail. Failure is a part of life, it is unavoidable. Finally, evolution. You evolve to succeed, become a better person. And then obviously you die but there are only 4 letters in life so deal.

Sometimes I get anxious
About little things
That I know won’t matter to me
In a week,
   A month,
     A year.
I just need to remind myself,
That life goes on
Did anyone get my Beetles reference? No? Ok....
Lye Jan 2019
I come into this world
In the jungle, big and wide
I find a tree and cut it down
So I can see the sky

I build a small wooded hut
And place my little belongings
I long for more in my little hut
I need to make this home

Many years pass
And I finally have a place to call home
With all my favorite things
Hanging up on the walls

I love my time here
This world is my sanctuary
Yet I have to log off
But not for too long
BlueRosePoet is my bff and she and I both mad poems on the same topic. Hers is called “Life of a Minecraft soul”. Go check her out!

"I hate my life."
"I want to die.'"
It's what they all say
But really
All they want
Is for life to be perfect
And if that's what they're waiting for
Then they might as well just **** themselves
Because life will never be perfect
It is messy
And crazy
And incomprehensible sometimes
But if there was no darkness
Was there ever any light?
I don't really understand this myself. Tell me what you think it's trying to say because I surely don't know.
Lye Mar 2019
I’m in blackness
But the lightness of your kiss
Is enough to get me
To the end of this dark tunnel
Lye Sep 2019

I want to sit close to you

like she does

I want to put my arm around you

like she does

I want to whisper I love you
In your ear when you’re hurting

like she does

But the thing is...
I don’t love you.
I like you
There’s a difference.
I just hope one day that I do, and you will reciprocate.







I’m sorry I can’t stop thinking about you I just want you to think about me too and I really should just give it up I know I’m trying but it’s so hard it’s so hard it’s so hard I want you and all of you but you’ll never want any piece of me.


I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry

Little girl
Be free
Enjoy the fun,
The carelessness
The perfect little life you have
Because what you don’t know,

Is that life is going to get a hell of a lot harder
The little girl is my younger self. Warning her of what is to come.

Live your life
It’s much too short to dawdle

The tulips of my old life
Used to bloom each spring
And though I love my new life,
I have found myself longing
For those tulips,
But most of all,
I have found myself longing
For a family home
A mother, a father
A sister a brother,
“The perfect mixture”
I thought.
Not so perfect after all, I guess
I miss the beauty of them, they may have been one of the only beauties of that life.

Somewhere
Someone’s will to live
Has been lost
Left on a lonely park bench
Waiting for it’s owner
To come back
And retrieve it

Love is the only reason I am here today.
But sometimes,
It makes things so much harder.
Lye Mar 2019
There are so many things
That are confusing to me right now
But the one thing that is clear
Is my love for you
Lye Dec 2018
Love is love
So why discriminate?
We all need to love
So why spread the hate?

Love who you want
You have the choice
You can be who you are
Use your voice

Don’t listen to the people
Who tell you to change
This isn’t a bad thing
There’s no one to blame

When you share your true feelings
You will know who’s your friend
And which were the friendships
That were destined to end

And if they don’t accept you
For who you are
They don’t deserve you
Without them you’ll go far

We are all with you
You don’t need to hide it
Love yourself
And don’t fight it

Love is love
Don’t listen to the hate
Love who you choose
No one has to be straight
A poem I wrote a while ago, whilst struggling to come out. It is partially to myself, as well as others in my situation.
Lye Mar 2019
They say
“You must love yourself
Before you can love anyone else”
But,
What if I need someone to love me,
For them to show me
How to love myself?
Lye Feb 2020

In the beginning, you and I were like two stars in a cloudless sky
Staring at each other with such awe that we forgot that anything else existed
Holding hands and laughing and being together
Like two young people in love
But then we began to drift away
Stars with different goals in different places
You and I were like two shooting stars flying in opposite directions
Shooting across the sky in our own way, not thinking about each other
Not talking, not laughing, not holding hands
Just silence, and sadness, and disappointment
We weren’t meant to be
Not written in the stars like we thought we were
Just two people who thought it was love
Two people with everything
And nothing at the same time
We didn’t give each other what we needed
It was sad, but it had to happen
So I left her









i’m sorry
I broke up with my girlfriend of almost 4 months a few days ago, and I feel bad but it was the best thing to do for myself. It’s been making me sad though, so I decided to write about it.
Lye Mar 2019
Roses are drooping
Violets are dead
Outside I’m happy
But life I still dread

My insides have rotted
But my outer is implying
That I am alright
Why am I always lying?
Lye Feb 2019
It’s so interesting
How only one person in the entire world
Will know what I am talking about
And what kind of meaning
It holds
When I say the words
“Magenta Scarf”
You know who you are.
