Ode to the Alcoholic
Mya Jun 2017
It was wrong to call you on your crap
Karma will do that soon enough
Mya Jun 2017
Every time
You ever told me
To stop
Being a piece of me
I remembered
All of your nights
Curled up to Jameson
And I realised
The only thing
That will
Ever make you whole again
Is going to be that bottle
You're nothing more than a drunken mistake

Too Much Can Kill
Mya Jun 2017
He could always read me like a book
So it's no surprise
That he could see the lies
Or pain in my eyes
When I tell him were fine
He doesn't know you
You'd never want him to
But he still holds some of my love
Which when you think
Makes you weak
Because not only you can
Sweep me off my feet
But you are
The only one
I want indefinatly

Why I Go (10 Words)

This is me leaving you
Before I destroy you too

Ella
Mya Jun 2017
Tú y yo fueron lo mismo
Pero
La boca de tus habló mentiras
Y tus corazón es no blanco
Es ***** y mucho frío
Tus ojos esta muerto
Igual que tú para mí
In the words from a band you had probably never heard of,  thnks fr th mmrs.

To My Future Daughter
Mya Jun 2017
Baby girl
Always know
You don't need to put on a dress to be a princess
You don't even need to be a princess at all
Show the world your stunning smile
Backed by your gleaming personality
And wisdom beyond your years
Your prince is sure to follow
But you don't have to have a prince
Anyone can save you
Let them
And when you fall in love
So be it
Fall hard and fall fast
Love like Fierce Kings conquered
Swift with no regrets
Live this way too
In all aspects of your life
The world is waiting for you

This Morning
Mya Jun 2017
I realised something in the car on my way home this morning,
and it was this:
I always say he's perfect,
And it is the most true thing I have ever said.
Fear follows this thought
Because
The thought of losing something has never been present
But the thought of losing perfection
Is horrifying.
I love you
Way more than I ever imagined.
That's how I know
You're my soul mate.

A few lines of truth
Mya Jun 2017
The only thing I want to be addicted to is love
Too bad liquor is cheaper
And easier to find

Much like the Music
Mya Jun 2017
His music carried me
Each note drifted me farther
To new places and sights
Only the richest person could ever hope to see

Each pass of his fingers showed me a new light
Something different I knew
He had never shown anyone before
The music was no longer just a sound

It was living in the room with us
Showing us how to feel
Guiding us to the stars
Slowly melding our souls together

His eyes never met mine
But how could they?
He was already in his blissful place
I stood watching from the neighboring star

I envied the noise
For being so close to him
Knowing every inch of his heart
Like maybe I will some day
Mya May 2017
He's the kind of simple
The kind to fall in love with all at once
Slow at first
Reaching closer to the apex
From there it's all at once
A snowball
Humor yourself and call it dominos
But I couldn't
It's not a chain reaction between several pieces
It's a mix of his gentle smile
Or the words which bleed his emotion
These simple reasons make me fall
Only me
Because it's only
All for me
He's the kind of simple
That I fell in love with all at once
May 2017 · 275
Little Trick
Mya May 2017
Maybe he took too much
More than he deserved
Little gaps in my heart
Filled for just the tiniest moments
He took it from me
All the loniness
Maybe then replace it,
Even by no fault of his own,
With the emptiness
May 2017 · 325
Roll Over
Mya May 2017
The emptiness of nothingness
Cannot be fathomed
Until the moment you become
Used up
And worthless
Apr 2017 · 185
Your head on pillows
Mya Apr 2017
Tell me that you dreamt of losing me
I want to see the tears in your eyes
As you tell me how I walked away
Hearing your voice break as you whisper
Don't go
Ache as you tell me this other worldly fear
Realize that you're not sleeping
Open your eyes before I'm gone
Apr 2017 · 202
Rip my heart
Mya Apr 2017
I am so madly in love with you
Are you enjoying the show?
Watching as the madness destroys me

Hateful Knuckles
Mya Apr 2017
The patterns of coughing up blood at 3 a.m. will have to stop
One day you will have to see yourself in a reflection
Maybe in a puddle or in a mirror
And realize that it is time to surrender
Be brave and take the knee
Give yourself up to all that breaks you down
Each moment thereafter is not of weakness
But of rebirth
Your once concussed mind will thank you
The sigh of your lungs should be enough to tell you
Your fight is over
Apr 2017 · 358
Reigning Champion
Mya Apr 2017
A new comer steps into the ring
He needs not sweat
The strength form his stance can carry this fight
With the burning confidence of a hundred suns
He will prevail over the others
New to the circuit
But all ready at the top
He's a curious creature
Not like the others
He looks and listens and waits
He is patient and calm
Swift and steady
Each victory ding of the bell
More pieces of my heart go to his title
Apr 2017 · 208
Theoretically
Mya Apr 2017
I could fall in love with him
Probably because of his smile
The way it sets the dew before dawn
And makes way for morning's grace
Or maybe it's because of his words
When they wrap around me tighter
Than even my favorite jacket
Better yet, it comes from the core
Spinning me along for the ride
Keeping my feet on the ground
And close to his comforts
...but could he fall for me?
With my grace in a twist
And my heart in a shatter
I'm a broken girl
But does that have to matter?
Apr 2017 · 274
The Ache You Feel Is Mine
Mya Apr 2017
And you'll never see the pain
The ache you give my body
As you sit there alone
Pretending the sting in your existence
Only punishes you
Mya Mar 2017
Even the earth wept
Birds took shelter
And the sky took revenge
The addition of this soul
Was too much for all
Even today it rains
Honoring the tragedy
Which still walks the soil
Happy Birthday to me
Mar 2017 · 192
Self Destruction
Mya Mar 2017
The ******* the other side of the glass looks back
Seeing into her own eyes
Touching the cold space in between the images
Which one was real?

Her heart raced as the cracks chased each other
It's all falling apart
Stepping back trying to keep an image clear
She's losing it

Pieces shatter and slide around the surface
Don't touch- they're sharp
The once clear picture now scrambled at her feet
The shards will make her bleed
Lyss, just hold on. It'll be okay.
Mya Mar 2017
The night air was cold
Spring was in bloom
So were those rising emotions
The only warmth in the earth around us
Was coming from us
Little lightning bugs mocking the stars above
Teasing them for our amusement
The world was singing in moonlight
All for you, maybe, for us
In that pale blue
We were simply Spring with the rest of the world
Mar 2017 · 590
Always be around
Mya Mar 2017
You make me feel a special kind of high
Like the sea in the eye of the storm
In all the chaos my heart can rest

Youre sweeter than ice cream
Melting in the heavy sun
and sticking to my heart

Like the funniest joke in a lifetime
I want to keep on laughing
Every second more dear than the last

Youre a sunset
For no other reason
than you make me smile

Promise me something
If we become shapes
That we'd be a circle
Only so you'll always
be a-round
Mar 2017 · 199
Listening
Mya Mar 2017
I hear you
You speak in nascent flowers
But breathe out raw sewage
Your to tongue writhes with lies
While your heart suffocates
Soon silence will be left to flourish
Then my ears will no longer bleed
When I have to hear you
Mar 2017 · 637
But Im Just Sleeping Again
Mya Mar 2017
Come walk with me to the place of dreams
Let us dance forever in this silver lining
The diamonds of my dress glistening
Off the light of the stars in your eyes
Let the music carry us
While your arms pull me into the sun
With endless skies ahead
and many galaxies to come
We could be eternal
A love-sick romantic who can't get her head out of the clouds. Forever my eyes will keep dreaming.
Mar 2017 · 567
In Passing
Mya Mar 2017
His soul was so beautiful
I will regret letting him go
Watching him walk away last time
For the last time...
I didn't require love
But I don't deserve abandonment

Now she holds his hand
Comforts him when he sleeps
She feeds the fire in his soul...
I could never give him that
The wrong love
At the worst time

Now all we have are passing glances
And my remorse
Maybe in those ephemeral moments
Our flames could collide yet again
For my BT,
Even if you read this, you still wouldn't know it's about you.
-M

Dragons
Mya Mar 2017
Princess,
Never let them fall
Tears are saved for boys
Who will wipe then away.
Princess,
These are not those boys
He is not the prince you read about
Or the hero you dreamed of
Count the stars again
Princess,
Hold your head up
This is the bed you made
Time to ***** your finger
And keep still
This chapter will send soon
Mar 2017 · 345
Time Provides
Mya Mar 2017
The magic of this world
Can be found with each rotation
A bad day ends at the dawn each day
and resets
Even with such an ability to rewind
To start over
Tell me,
Why do you feel the need to live there?
In the past.
Love and live with us here
Where each day is a new beginning
And every breeze can carry you
To something new
Just ride the wave. Eventually, it will leave away from danger, and carry you into the comforts of the steady sea.
Mar 2017 · 344
When I Want
Mya Mar 2017
Even all I had
Wasn't good enough
I would have ripped out my own heart
Just for a touch of yours
I would have melted my soul
If only to taste yours
I wanted to feel something so bad
I guess it made you feel nothing
Mar 2017 · 471
Lustful Touch
Mya Mar 2017
I thought of you
In the pale glow of the early moon
My fingers melted into every inch
Until my body shook
And my legs quivered
My jaw tensed
As my body sighed
Then all at once the bliss
Poured over me like crashing waves
Wave after wave of inocence lost
Drifting into the sweetest dreams
Feb 2017 · 358
We love to fall
Mya Feb 2017
People can't be afraid of heights
-they're afraid of falling
Or maybe it's the fear of hitting the ground
Love is this way too

No one is afraid of the height
The soft touch of fingers melding
Or the lingering moments after the kiss
Nor do people fear the falling

Not a soul would wish away those falling moments
Of the first time your sentence was also hers
Like the moments just a glance can change fate
Falling so deep into the little glances at something greater

With love we don't fear the falling or the heights
We fear the stiff reality at the bottom
Those fearful of love know the pain of hitting the ground

The pain of the fight that lasted three days
Or when words were not loud enough so the doors broke the silence
But mainly the pain of the frostbite setting in
From the spot where they no longer reside
Feb 2017 · 530
Tacky Glue
Mya Feb 2017
With claws so sharp it's easy to see
Why you tear me down so often without a second thought
The poison I ingest daily
Comes in the form of the little words you think hold no meaning
Your tacky glue won't hold us together
If all you do is throw out the pieces at your feet
Maybe when you look at me
-how I look at you
You'll know the pain of watching the mold break
All I want is your everything.
Feb 2017 · 586
In the Spirit of Today
Mya Feb 2017
I will always have those elastic memories
To stretch and watch over and over
Until they snap and fade away
Even if they don't break apart
Eventually theyll erode to nothing

I fear this pain won't be like those memories
It'll stick to my lungs and rot them away
Tears of acid will peel away these once rosy cheeks
My hands will shake wanting yours
Reaching for the memories
That have long sense expired
Happy Valentines Day

The Sober Heart
Mya Jan 2017
When you live your life through a sober lens
you have to open up your heart to all the hurt
and the hardships
that are going to come with it
but when you open up your heart it leads
to great things
you can feel love and joy and you can have
the help and the company of all those around you
Living life for the sober soul is more than just living to feel pain
it's living so you can feel all of the great things
that come along with being alive.
And if you can't open your heart
to even those piercing feelings
how do you expect to feel anything ever again?
Jan 2017 · 323
Drink the Poison
Mya Jan 2017
We drink
To forget
The Sins we let ourselves
Commit

Even Off the Field
Mya Jan 2017
The Warrior stands on the field after battle
Bodies lay before Her
The interior of her armor drenched in guilt
The exterior gleaming in red
Hands still clenching the sword and shield
She was paralyzed
Images of Her acts still happening

It is time to go
Her feet tell her body that Her job is done
Once She reaches home She knows
The applause of the people will wash over her armor
Taking the **** of the guilt away

But the Blood on Her hands
The blemish and scar of the heart
Showers of water will drown out the screams
Showers of memories will allow Death to follow Her

The moment Her eyes re-open to the sun
Her hands do burn
And she screams
A scream made of all the ones She took
They drown her
The still memories of the carnage
Each time Her mind chooses to wander
It walks back onto the Field

She can bury the dead
But She can't bury the Sins
They will be the plague of time
Mya Jan 2017
The burning coals are hot against your feet
I know its warm and that you want to cry
The image of the ash will be quite sweet
The only thing you have to do is try

The fire of my heart within your hand
Where is the part of you I get to hold?
Please give me the key to your holy land
Promise me these flames will not grow cold

Your flame burns a different shade of purple
Our blaze together can form a flower
Let us live within the sacred circle
You alone will ****** away my power

Feel the heat under your feet and find
All the pain we feel is in your mind
I think I'm falling in love with you. Will this bitter emotion burn me too?

The Flawlessness of Change
Mya Jan 2017
The flaw from yesterday
Is not the flaw of today
Today's flaw is the fact
That I believed I was flawed yesterday
Jan 2017 · 288
Under the Blue
Mya Jan 2017
Where the sky melts
Time has no value
The water flows backwards
Where?
No one knows
None have come back from such a place

Blood runs clear
Tears turn to gold
Darkness itself has no where to hide in this space
Stillness replaces air
Cries are the only records to play- while sorrows sound off
No others return from such a place
None but you
Not quite yours but I was inspired
Jan 2017 · 541
Stolen
Mya Jan 2017
With each treacherous kiss
You ripped the words from my tongue
You snatched the power from my lips
Everything I had- you consumed
Leaving me with nothing
Jan 2017 · 250
The Loss of the Crown
Mya Jan 2017
Today I made your son a king
By taking him into my sheets
And allowing him to claim his throne
Though I have no intention of being his queen
Only his princess of the shadows
There for his needs
-And your torment
Jan 2017 · 215
What do they call this now?
Mya Jan 2017
I will give you my hand
Listen to your demands
Only in these second hand moments
I'm yours
My hand in these times doesn't guarantee
Forever
Only for as long as God and other like him
Can bare to watch
Before even they must turn away
From this less than graceful act
That we will forever give our hands to
During those makeshift meetings
Jan 2017 · 222
Immune to Your Romantics
Mya Jan 2017
The only time he holds my hand
Is after he ***** me until I can't tell
Where one inch of flesh meets another
The numb feeling of knowing I'm being held
Without knowing where
As hot flesh melds together-
It's not as if it mattered anyway
Jan 2017 · 186
Sob Story
Mya Jan 2017
I have written you so many beautiful poems
It's a shame you never had the capacity to enjoy them
Jan 2017 · 218
The Spirit of the Second
Mya Jan 2017
There are no words to describe a spirt
They are not if this world
Therefore words of this world
Do not do such spirits justice

I know this only after his spirt touched me
Right there in the smallest of moments
It happened in the space between seconds
Only as the Earth stopted in the breath before the blink

The strength of his gaze
The energy behind those twinkling gems
If only he knew the power he held
What actually lived on within himself

His spirt was something profound
It is a shame really that I have no other Earthly words
To describe this heavenly warrior
Who's own passion he has yet to fully realize
Jan 2017 · 335
A Lady Would Know Better
Mya Jan 2017
I traded in what could have been
For a long line of maybe laters and sheets
Stained to the brim
With only what a blacklight would love to find
Either blood from my heart or from the hearts
Of all the dumb fools before me
Jan 2017 · 235
Oh Violent Sea,
Mya Jan 2017
Please be calm
Open the eye of the storm
To see the pain this brings

Settle now and let the sun rises again
I need the light to guide my poor soul
Help me off this wreck and to know
To know this mess of a sea within me
Jan 2017 · 249
Soft Ice at Sun-Up
Mya Jan 2017
Gleaming while melting
Slowly dying, but with grace
To melt is to move on
It is to become something new
A time for change
Much like the sun rising
Each morning the same result
Yet the colors continue
to dance a different dance
       -So will you
Jan 2017 · 317
To Be Refined by the Heat?
Mya Jan 2017
Here I go again
Selling a piece of my soul
For less than the value of mud
Every diamond deserves better
It would be a tragedy then
If I was anything more than charcoal
Maybe the pressure will make me beautiful
Dec 2016 · 695
Death in a Box
Mya Dec 2016
Death does not shake me
Because I know how I'll die
It'll be brutal and painful
Not like a stray bullet or hit by a car
The cancer will **** me slowly
It will break down my body
Then **** off my soul
I know this will happen
Everytime I light the cause
Dec 2016 · 528
