Sunlight
Alvira Perdita Apr 2014
The sun was shining outside
and the world looked so bright
and welcoming
I had this urge, this desire
To run outside into the garden
and just dance in the sunlight
but I couldn't because there was darkness
in my heart

My View on Dating
Alvira Perdita Mar 2014
I'm not against dating,
I'm not against people being happy,
I'm against pointless relationships
because it's a lot of time
and no emotions

Glasses
Alvira Perdita Mar 2014
Glasses are the international sign for nerd
But also for genius, and if we're to be honest
It all makes sense, the two go hand in hand
Those who read generally have a wider knowledge

But I've been brought up with the thought
That everyone has the same level of intelligence
And I like that idea, because we're all different
And we're all good at different things

Some people are arty, and others are businessy
And I think the world is perfect the way it is
Because everyone is the same, in their own way
With, or without glasses.
Ramblings.

A Place of Peace
Alvira Perdita Mar 2014
A whisper rises as the wind blows and I close my eyes to listen
I can't understand what's said by the trees
But I love to listen, more than anything else
It's calming, soothing, almost therapeutic
And the sun kisses my face softly as the soft breeze brushes by
Sitting up this high should scare me, would scare me
But sitting at the top of trees has always been my favourite place
I can hear the whisper of the leaves as the breeze teases me
And I close my eyes again, thankful for this quiet little place
That I can truly call *mine

Imagine
Alvira Perdita Mar 2014
Imagine your favourite celebrity bumped into you
On a busy side walk, and quietly apologised
Before slipping off, back into the crowd
And stole your heart in the process

Imagine your favourite actor bumped into you
Looking for a place to lay low for a while
And to pass the time you got to know them
And the whole time, they seemed impressed

Imagine accidentally dialling the wrong number
And your favourite singer answers the phone
And shyly you apologise, and they tell you it's fine
And the whole time you're mentally celebrating

Now, imagine after all this has happened
Or only one of the above
And you didn't have a friend to share it with
Friend appreciation poem!
Love you my pumpkins.
Alvira Perdita Feb 2014
With eyes that glistened like ocean itself
You were beauty inside and out
You had a strong heart,
And a stronger backbone.

Your love was like no other,
That much, I know is true
And I hope that where ever you are, you're happy

And one day I'll join you
Is heaven what they say it's like?
Surely, a soul as perfect as your is there

My family will grieve, for me,  like we are for you
And I'll be with you and smile down to Earth
Knowing that being with you makes it all worth it

And once I'm there, you can tell me stories
About when you were a little girl in England
But until then, our parting words will be the same as always:
*“I love you”
In loving memory of Wendy, a loving mother, a funny grandmother, and the best great grandmother

Obsessions
Alvira Perdita Jan 2014
The way I get attached
Slightly obsessed with things
Cute things, other worlds
It'll be the death of me
Slowly, I'm disappearing
Into another world
And there's nothing anyone
Can do, because nobody
Knows, or even cares

Dead

Be dead

Beauty
Alvira Perdita Oct 2013
Look in the mirror
And tell yourself
That you are beauty
That you are the face
The mind, and the body
Of beauty

Here's a secret
You, that girl who thinks
That she's fat, and that
Anorexic girl
Yeah, you're all the
Definition of beauty

To Every Girl Out There
Alvira Perdita Oct 2013
You don't need to bend over
Your ***** falling out your shirt
Exposing your body, and your image
You don't need to pretend to be a ****
So that people will like you
Because in those cases, they don't like you
They like who they think you are
And you're not that person
You've still got self dignity
Hold on to it
One of my favourite poets on here has a profile pic and it just makes me really sad.

Music
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
They say that
Teens who always
Listen to music are
Are most likely to get
Depressed easily, but it's
Those teens who have no one
Else, besides the music that makes
*Us feel ever so down
I know people say that they're there for me
and stuff, and I really appreciate it
I'm just not one to open up to strangers

Blessed
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
People keep telling me
That I'm blessed
And that I should be grateful
For what I have
But I would never expect
Them to be grateful
For death of a loved
One
Sorry, someone commented that I'm blessed, and it annoyed me because they know nothing about me or what I'm going through

Mono-

Oh, so many others
But I'll always be alone
Don't you just love English?

Once Again
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
You never knew me
Not like both of us wanted
But I was too scared to show
Because I'm like that
But you couldn't understand
I guess that's why you left
And once again, I'm alone
In this darkness
This is for my friend
Well, I'm not sure if we're friends still
Oh well, yeah, this is form him

Midnight Sadness

Myself to actually delete them

Simple Things
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
Happiness isn't always clear
Different things work at different times
And the days I spend with my family
Are always good ones
Today actually a pretty good day
Spent my brother's 18th with him <3

Scare
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
I hate how easily I scare
Especially at the little things
It may have been cute and funny
Back when I was oh-so-young
But not any more
Now I'm nothing more than a mere
Annoyance to everyone else

Gone
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
Can I stop existing now?
This game bores me
And the hole in my chest agrees
There's no fun in being around
And maybe if I wasn't losing everything
Anything, and everything that matters
It's all gone

So Alone
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013

My mind thinking of you
And I hear your scream
I cover my ears as the tears flow
My goodness, I've never
Felt so alone

Come
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
Come, take my hand
And I'll show you a hill
A green hill, and there
The grass is soft
And we can lie here
Looking at the clouds
Telling stories of our past
Our shoulders so close
That they almost touch
And our minds not filled
With anxiety

Fear
Alvira Perdita Sep 2013
Fear claws at the walls of my mind
Like a caged animal, trying to break free
Fear, the monster that makes us sleepless
The creature that makes paranoia
More than just an illusion
Yes, fear is trying to break free
And I don't know what to make of it

Death

And tell you good news

I don't want you to go
But death has his own way

Every Time
Alvira Perdita Aug 2013
I hate it when I like somebody
Because I then get comfy with them
And then I begin to trust them
Soon, I find myself opening up
And then one day they go
No goodbye, no nothing
And I'm left alone, with no one
With nothing, and I know
I should be used to it
But it hurts a lot
Every time.

The Fiction We Live
Alvira Perdita Aug 2013
I felt your breath on my neck
And in excitement I wanted to scream
But  I couldn't, and I knew I shouldn't
Because you were a mere part of my dream

Happy
Alvira Perdita Aug 2013
And as requested, I would grab my leg
And show you the spin
That you so loved to see

But now as I think about it
It might not have been the spin
That you wanted to see
But rather, the sight of me being happy
This is for my gran, because she always made me tell her about things that I liked and thinking about it tonight, I think I cracked the code
(Also, one of those ballets spins where they hold their foot)

Thanks to the Moon and Back
Alvira Perdita Aug 2013
Thank you too all those
Who have shown so much support
And to those who show they care
No words could help you to understand
How much it means to me
It's not good, I know
Shh, but everyone here shows so much support

And you guys have no idea how much it makes my day
So, thank you :) ***

Insanity
Alvira Perdita Aug 2013
He looked around before he whispered in your ear
His voice was soft as he told you, "Don't you dare fear."
You didn't understand, and you grew scared
And he took over your mind as you hid beneath your bed

Your nails scratched loudly against the wall, like a cat
And you closed your eyes as the tears fell and hit your mat
How had it come to this, you wonder aloud
But he warned you, and you remember as you hit the ground

I'm sorry that nothing I do is good enough

And I'm sorry I'm a constant let down
I honestly wish I was better at life, too
And I'm sorry I can't live up to your expectations
I know I'd be liked better if I could
Basically, what I'm trying to say is
I'm sorry I'm such a disappointment
