strangers
Nao Apr 2020
I think that
you realize,
how sweet you are,
and beautiful in my eyes,
in your reflection.
We are nothing,
just strangers with
a little too much time
and loneliness,
so let's stay like
this,
a little while
longer

To the girl i hate most
Nao Sep 2021
I never know when it starts.
not when it comes to her.
maybe it was 2 days ago,
when someone didn’t smile at her,
or maybe 2 weeks ago
when it started raining.
maybe it was 2 years ago,
on Christmas because **** always goes down on winter break.
Maybe sadness was always with her,
maybe it never left,
maybe it never will.
Maybe that’s who she is,
a nostalgic smile.
she’s somehow infinite,
She never really starts or ends,
and yet time goes by so fast,
She disappears,
no promises,
and maybe just maybe,
if you’re important enough,
she’ll notice when you leave,
I never know when it starts.
She seems so far.
Her eyes are always clouded,
under those thick lashes of hers,
covered in mascara and dried tears.
If you’re lucky enough,
she might answer your questions,
she might laugh at your jokes,
and maybe just for a second,
she might close her eyes when you hold her hand,
And let down her barriers,
just for a split second
that seems to last forever.
She feels so close.
I never know when it starts,
her sadness I mean.
It’s familiar,
a shadow behind every ray of sunshine she produces,
because she’s an angel this human,
Regular angel,
with bleached hair and painted lips,
soft voice and soft hands,
apologetic smiles,
when she says she’s doing well but isn’t sure.
I like to think I know her,
the one who does her makeup on facetime,
and plays the piano in the dark.
And I like to think I know when she starts to feel okay,
this girl who chooses her earrings every morning,
I like to think I’m important enough
For her to notice when I leave.
She’s somehow simple,
under her labels of “complex”
she’s a very human little angel
with her bleached hair and painted lips,
soft voice and soft hands,
I never know when it starts,
not when it comes to her,
but I like to think,
I can somewhat understand.
When she plays,
this girl we all want to know,
she takes you with her,
in memories, you don’t have
and moment’s you haven’t lived,
places you haven’t seen.
Get out of my life
i beg you

If you go
Nao Oct 2020
If I go,
without saying goodbye.
I want you to know,
that I really tried.
To live and love,
to endure and smile.
To find the truth,
in this realm of lies.

Do you like it?
Nao Jan 2020
Do you like it?
Hurting me I mean.
It seems I'm never enough,
and I wonder,
If I'll ever be.

Do you like it?
Loving me I mean.
I feel bad a little,
mostly all the time.

Do you hate it that much?
Living I mean.
Because it seems,
You can't let me.

My chest is filled with men,
who enjoy seeing pain,
and yes,
you're one of them.
But this is a poem.
So I guess,
you can be beautiful.

He knows what he's doing
Nao Sep 2020
He seems to know
100 ways to make me happy
without it ever feeling too much.

He seems to know
which specific kind of coffee
I will need when i get home.

He seems to know
that we dont really need to speak
just lay together in the grass and the sunlight

He seems to know
that I'm a hopeless romantic,
i think deep down he is the same

He seems to know
i look at the way his lips slighlty curve
when he's reads his favourite book

I think he knows
that i like him just a little
and I'll give him the world if he asks me to

And i know he knows
that he makes me smile with his words
he likes it when i smile i think.
i met a quiet, confident boy who makes me smile and goes on picnics with me.
He doesn't feel the need to fill the silence, i think we might become good friends

You look like an angel
Red skin
Green eyes
Blue lips
I think it’s love
You look like a miracle
Rough hands
Cold skin
Soft cheeks
I think I see your love
Or maybe
It’s just the lsd

Not that special
Nao Nov 2020
I think I know now,
           That this was never really more than a moment,
                       I was never as attached
                                  As I liked to imagine.

I think i know now
           That i love you when you're here,
                       Forget you when you're gone,
                                   You don't cross my mind as i fall asleep.
I'm sorry,

        I'll call you later

angry
Nao Apr 2020
I want to scream.
Who gave you the right,
to treat me like you did?
to lie like you did?
to break me like you did?
to love me like you did?
I mean
****.

— The End —
