reaper but not grim
Luna Jun 2019
Death is seen as
a horrifying being
but i think it's quite nice
to have someone
to hold you hand
after you die
to walk you to the afterlife

tears
Luna Jun 2019
cry!
tears are the vessel
in which pain escapes

dance with me
Luna Jun 2019
I want to slow dance with you
moonlight streaming through the window pane
my head against yours
my arms around your shoulders
pulling you close
feeling your chest rise and fall against mine
swaying gently
the world fading away
until it's just
you
me
and the music

we are not bound to
one reality; we make
it in every thought

weak
Luna Jun 2019
I am weak
soft and crumbly
like feta cheese

I wish I were strong
sharp and rough
like razor blades
but I don't think
blades are too tasty.
ask the kids who get razor blades in their halloween candy

yourself like I do

cuts me
wounds
us both
I wish i could stop.

With you
Luna Jun 2019
I've loved before
My heart enraptured by those who ignore me
Wish they would adore me
They don't look my way
I pine for their love and affection for a time
But when the sun begins to shine
My love fades away

Sometimes someone's love seems to stay
So I'll give them my heart
They'll take it
They'll break it
I'll shatter because I had too much faith it
hurts

This time though, my love feels different
Through my blind eyes I can't feel the thrill of it
My heart isn't seized by passion anymore
But I love you more than any before
In your arms it feels so right
Though your stare doesn't make my throat feel tight
I dream of you still
Day in and day out
And I just know that without a doubt
What I feel is love

Because when I'm with you
My heart glows like a fire on a cold winter's night
Illuminating my mind, driving out the fright
I feel nothing but joy with you
'stead of worry and jealousy
Which I never even wished to see
I find a place of security
with you

Thank you
Luna May 2019
Thank you for loving me
Through health and hardship
Through pain and sorrow and joy
Thank you
for loving me

Fears
Luna May 2019
I know they won't be surprised
but I'm still scared
to tell them
I love you
Because while I know they'll be supportive
I can't help but worry
they'll disapprove and
I don't want to lose them
for a silly little thing
like love
I'm telling my friends that I'm dating someone today. That someone is also one of our friends, and I'm worried things will become tense and awkward.

Edit: It went great! Nobody was surprised and everybody was supportive.

missing piece
Luna May 2019
What would happen
if I hadn't met you?
What would I do without you?
Having friends but feeling alone
passing you by without a second glance
no smiles shared
no small embrace
Nothing to miss
but my missing piece

Nowhere to look
no map in sight
wandering towards something to bring back my light
Missing a piece but not seeing it
Missing a heart but not feeling it
Missing a breath but not breathing it
endlessly searching
never knowing
that it's you
I'm missing

songbird
Luna May 2019
a nightingale sings
of wondrous things
like shiny bright strings
and wind on your wings
moonlight on water
mother and daughter
sweet smelling flowers
and sunny rain showers
of wondrous things
this nightingale sings
Such joy that it brings!
A gift to the Earth
That happiness birthed
I'm working on rhyme and structure.

separated
Luna May 2019
I wish that I
had met you later
so we
could love
without limits
without walls
without restraints
for I know
that if we could
we'd be so much
happier

together

the two of us
against the world
May 2019 · 234
just to see
Luna May 2019
sometimes I wish I could die
just for a day
to see how you would react
May 2019 · 733
not a crush
Luna May 2019
I didn't think that
I would fall in love with you
but I'm glad I did

tired
Luna Apr 2019
I'm not sad
just tired
I'm not hurting
just tired
"just tired" I say

I am tired
tired of apathy
tired of feeling alone
tired of failing after trying my best
tired of the same monotonous routine that bears no fruit
tired of being abandoned
tired of being ignored
tired of being told I'm faking it
tired of hiding myself

I wish I could fall asleep and forget everything
but everything is still there when I wake up
Luna Apr 2019
Sitting in my room
crying to Cavetown
for no reason
other than it feels good to cry

push against the walls
Luna Apr 2019
Sometimes
I feel like
the world
is
closing in
on me,
trapping
me
in a
tiny capsule
until I
suffocate

losing friends
Luna Apr 2019
The breeze
took
your hand
and
blew you away
from me
leaving me
alone,
desperately grasping
at
empty air
where
your heart
was supposed
to be
My best friend from the town i moved from has stopped responding to me. I miss her.

The joy of silence
Luna Apr 2019
I am thinking thoughts.
Thoughts that I think of every day
Thoughts that lead to other thoughts
I wish, I hope, I plead for them to stop
But they never do

I’m always thinking thoughts
Like a ball rolling down a hill
Around and around and around again
My thoughts are spiraling spiraling spiraling
Faster and faster they go more and more and more thoughts
They don’t end, they never end
Each thought growing more desperate like a child yelling above the din

LISTEN TO ME!

I can’t listen.
I can’t hear.
I am not the one in control.

I wish I could say
you made me happier but
my heart cries for you

piano
Luna Apr 2019
funny how one chord
can say so much
while i
can’t say anything
When I'm sad, mournful piano music soothes me. I wish I could play.

horny
Luna Apr 2019
I'm feeling pretty *****.
Or maybe I'm just desperate for an intimate relationship
And I fantasize about sensuality
because I crave the passionate love between two human beings
And I fantasize about skin rubbing skin
the sweat dripping between them
The mixing of two souls and the conjunction of two bodies
The beautiful slopes and curves of her figure
slowly caressing mine
The soft whispers of love that brush against my ear
And trail kisses down my neck
Her soft gasp as I trail my fingers up her thigh
my other hand grasping the back of her head, threading my fingers through her hair
Pulling her closer, ever closer
Her nails digging into my back
Leaving stinging red marks to remind me of her
when I leave for work in the morning
touching the scratches, I'll remember her
In the afterglow
Her arm around me, our legs tangled together
Her hair curled wild around her face
"I love you"
she whispers
Giving me a tender peck on the lips
Before blissfully surrendering to exhaustion
I watch her chest rise and fall
Her soft breathing lulls me to sleep
I'll smile when I think of her
Because I'll remember her words
"I love you"
They'll ring through my mind
"I love you"
Following me wherever I go
"I love you"
Lighting the candle in my heart
The flame growing brighter and brighter with each hushed word
"I love you"

or maybe I'm just *****.
Luna Apr 2019
i wish we were in
love because together we
could have conquered worlds
I've reconciled with her. We're still friends. Though she hurt me, I know she didn't mean to. I still care about her more than I've cared about anyone else before. I'm not throwing that away.

piece of me

please split my heart in
two and take half so that you
can have a whole one

Nothing lasts forever
Luna Apr 2019
A catalogue of
past loves, a heart on paper.
Alas, time moves on

I’m not who I say I am
Luna Apr 2019
I say what you want me to say
I do what you want me to do
I think what you want me to think
I want you to like me

I don’t know who I am
I am a little bit of everyone
But I am none of myself

The salty breeze stings
her skin as she looks wistfully down

I just want to be with you
in the kitchen of our apartment
dancing to Shakira

hunger

It feels like
sometimes
hunger is the only thing
keeping me
grounded

awake

trapped
Luna Apr 2019
I’m homesick for a
home I’ve never known. I wish
I could leave this place.

Forget
Luna Apr 2019
Oh, how the bell tolls
Those mourning lost souls
Hear it ring softly through the night
Say they can’t move on
But disappear with the dawn
Another face fades out of sight
They dug graves to rot in
Their names are forgotten
The man they call Death wears white.

Serotonin
Luna Apr 2019
Happiness is blue and round
Happiness lives in a bottle
Happiness fits in the palm of my hand
Happiness is taken with water
Happiness lasts from seven to six
Happiness tastes like chalk
I take my happiness every day
So why can’t I notice a difference?

A bumblebee buzzes
by my ear
and lands on my shoulder
before flying off
into a field.
I think she thought
i was a flower.

Home is not

Tell me when to wake

Empty Space
Luna Apr 2019
A hole in my head
I can’t think.
A hole in my heart
I can’t feel.
A hole in my stomach
I can’t eat.
My body is full of big, empty holes.
Am I going to disappear?

Sunflowers
Luna Apr 2019
Cool
Calm
Blue
I always liked blue.
It’s strangely comforting
To see a color
That feels like you do
Bright
Happy
Yellow
I never liked yellow.
It hurts
To see a color
That feels like you wish you do

Then
I met you
You made me something I never thought I could be
Bright
Happy
You’ve always liked yellow.
Now
I see sunflowers
I think of you

Frozen
Luna Apr 2019
A perfect blossom
frozen from a sudden chill
beauty encapsulated
