I hate being in love sometimes
Why does it have to hurt
Mel Aug 2021
I strongly dislike the way I talk

And the way I have a lisp.

I strongly dislike the way I can’t drive,

And I disklike I can’t eat shrimp.

I strongly dislike that my feet are way too big

And the way bounce when I walk.

I strongly dislike myself to the point of starvation,

Although I’m not much skinnier, not at all.

I dislike how I’m never right,

I dislike when I lie.

I strongly dislike the way I laugh,

Even worse is how I cry.

I dislike when nobody is around

And the fact I always feel alone.

But mostly, I strongly dislike how I shouldn’t dislike myself,

Not close, or even a little bit at all.

I remember, once,
In my childhood home
There was a mean young man
Whose house was across from mine
He had no children to call his own
But five really mean dogs who
Like to give me a barking fright
My mother grew weary of their mean accusations,
So we moved, to a land far far away

I remember, once,
In my grandparents home
There was a girl my age
Whose house was down the street from mine
She had two siblings,
One young and one old
But she still treated us all the same,
A happy smile on her face
She was my best friend for only a year
Her only causality is she didn't move with me

I remember, once,
In our brand new home,
How I knew nobody there, not a soul
I was the new kid, over five years ago
And it's never left me
Since I was twelve years old
I made friends, lost friends, dated a whole bunch
But my happiness was never
Up to code
Never up to standard

Off a lit-up city street
Two dying forces meet
To read the drowning words of
Faceless man

They said that before the bird ate them.

I just had a thought,
A tiny
Measly thought
What if everything,
Really isn’t my
Fault?
I hate that I feel this way

Cherry wished her dear Dee would see her color
The falling shades of leafy green
The hints of pink that people love to reach for
She hoped for a small moment of feeling
Between Cherry and her dear Dee

Her skin pale
Her eyes soft
Her touch sweet
Her grin... not
Her voice rolled
Her ideas spurred
Her black hair
Her white dress
Her cherry red lips
Her dark as night lure
Snow white in a creepy poem form

"I love you"

I know.

"Do you love me too?"

No.
To a person or to yourself, love is never one-sided

Hidden beneath
The layers of cloth
Hidden beneath
your skin
and your tissue
and your bones
Is your heart
The one that belongs
To me
I've been trying to write a collection of romance poems! So enjoy!

Don't blink

Or you might miss

The sun setting or

Your last dying breath

As flowers and dirt covers
the cautious ground
A long lure of leafy gray

Clear nectar runs into the water
Running down the mountain and
To the end of the river

The letter arrived this morning
It was the first to come this spring
I read it over and over and over again.
Each day,
Each night,
I study the letter
Until it became a habit to read it every morning,
Every evening
By the end, I might have learned
To rest, take a nap,
Spend time with people
But for now, I’ll just read the last letter
The letter from my love
Using a word generator:
Nap
Study
Spring
Habit
Letter

Falling in love is something people do

But only on days that don't end with y

And only on mornings when the sun doesn't rise

Only when the moon reaches its highest point in the sky

That is when people fall in love and take a trip

Quite a dive

That the minister of mine
Would stop his hide
From splitting and stop
The fatty lies from being heard

So why do I see it in your eyes?
I love space and romance

I follow the red road
To freedom
I follow the yellow flowers
To my psat
I follow the green clovers
To my future
And I stand still to take
In the fragrance of
The blooming flowers
And dancing clovers
And the earthy red road
For my present

History likes to repeat itself
But sometimes it likes to change
The curve in the river
Will start going straight
And the walls on the castle
Are now crumbling down

But then a new river is formed
And a new wall is built
And history starts all over again

Maybe it does repeat itself

When you took me out to that field
I was so sure we were friends

But then the sweet smell of nectar on your hands
The sweet cherry color of your lips coated now in yellow

A feeling of love, pure love
I didn't know I had came over me

But you didn't notice how my eyes went pink as I stared
Maybe you already knew, maybe you didn't

I made it clear though when I tasted the honey from
off your lips
When I say I'm gay for this, I'm definitely gay for this
Mel Mar 2020
I'm falling
Falling into the ocean
Falling down a rabbit hole
Falling off a cliff

I'm drowning
Drowning in my tears
Drowning in my feelings
Drowning in the river

I'm dying
Dying to have change
Dying feel my feet
Dying to live

I'm dead
Dead to society
Dead to humanity
Dead to myself
Mel Feb 2022
I felt the weight of your hands in mine
It's heavy
Like I was holding all of your pain
And your sorrows

I felt the weight of your soul crawling into mine
It's lost
Wishing and reaching for something
Anything, everything

I felt the weight of your stare against my skin
It's burning
Like it was going to create a permanent mark at the spot
An irreplaceable mark

I hate tests
Maybe it's because the circles
remind me of rings of
fire
Or maybe it's because the tests
are like life or death to a grade
that won't
matter

I just know I hate tests
I hate taking tests

The words "I love you"
Doesn't mean anything
But the soft touches against
My hand everyday, and
The fact you can remember
My birthday without a calendar
Does mean something.

The phrase "I'll never leave you"
Doesn't mean anything
But when you give me flowers
On a random day, and you know
My favorite color is green, a forest green
Does mean something.

The smile on your face
Doesn't mean anything
But when you are cautious
And remember I don't like
Physical contact without permission
That means something
I'm so in love with him sometimes

When our eyes meet
I was scared the color from them would drain

But instead, I'm lost in a field of grain wheat
Lost in a world where there is no pain

All I want to do is feast
Feast on the eyes that I want in vain

But we all know as soon as I look away,
The color will drain and we will be on our merry ways
Mel Oct 2021
I've never been able to remember
your name
Or remember the upturn of
your lips
I've struggled to recall the sensation of
your touch
And the hardships we had faced

I now catch myself wishing

Children's shoes against the

Giggles in the air
Cookies in a jar

To reach the top
Only to fall

Why do you hide?
Hide where?
Under the bed, I mean?
Because it's safe.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Can I come and see?
As long as you promise to not touch anything.
Okay.
Welcome to under the bed.
What's this?
Don't touch it.
But I want to.
No.
.... Too late.
.......
.......
Welcome to under the bed. Your new home, child.

My dear friend
My dear fat minister
My ambassador of truth

I cannot quite recall
How to spell my name
Or how to tell a lie

I can't be handy anymore
It's raising the call for alarm

My dear friend
Show me the truth

When you’re born without
                         Color
How are you supposed to view the
           Vibrant
                                        And the brilliant
How are you supposed to see the
                 Light
                          And the dark
When the lack of color you have
        Makes you only see
                                          Gray
               The color of
                                    Clay
                   And the color of
Purgatory
          The color of
                                        Nothing
                What do you do when you’re
Born without

                                                        ­                                                          Color
Enjoy, the spacing is hard
