To my happiness
Donna Bella Dec 2022
Tears fall onto my cheeks
I’m used to that
The illness has taken my soul
Broken pieces
I want to go back to him
But it was better for me to go
To be alone
So now I think of the happiness he brought
But it was too much when I was Ill
If it mattered he would have found a way
But he never did
So I sit here and think about us
But I see it’s just a memory

Wishz
Donna Bella May 2022
Wish I could tell him
The thoughts that take up my mind
The level of confusion that I feel
The harsh reality of a loveless girl
It’s not the same anymore
My strings has been played
Unsure that they can be renewed
Unsure if I can be that person for him
I wish I could tell him
May 2022 · 801
sorry
Donna Bella May 2022
How can I say sorry?
A million of tears
For just one forgiveness
Broken heart?
Can I mend it?

EZ Love Pt 3
Donna Bella May 2022
Sometimes
When I hear his voice I can see visions
Visions of promises he hasn’t given me yet
It’s more of visions of ecstasy
Never felt at home with anyone else
But just speaking to him calms me in ways others can’t
He strengthens me, always
It confuses me because he’s the only one
I would offer my hand but will the tragedies I’ve dealt with be the tumbling building
Can he break the shell that was given to me to protect me
Can he protect my heart
I wonder if he could hold me when I’m alone
Hold me as tears tumble down my eyes
Will he take me to heights that I have never seen
I’m willing to take the journey
How can I tell him
I’ll walk with him

FAMILIAR
Donna Bella May 2022
Let me say this
Familiar feeling
Kindred Spirit
Soul lost
Soul gained
Butterflies
Blushed Cheeks
Warm heart
FAMILIAR FEELING

EZ Love Pt 2
Donna Bella May 2022
I forgot this feeling
I forgot how he made me feel
I don't know how to express myself in a way I would like to
I really don't want to open up
Because all that brings is sadness and empty promises
But in a way, I feel like a butterfly when it comes to him
I guess I never knew what I really was missing
Maybe I am scared to take the next step because it feels all new to me once again
I'm scared to step into newness because it always ends up being another hell instead of the heaven I deserve

Growth
Donna Bella May 2022
The way the spring comes
It’s the way my soul is refreshed
Either it comes today or maybe next month
Maybe I will deal with the rain
Or maybe I won’t
But the spring is so refreshing

Ask of you
Donna Bella May 2022
Kiss me
Kiss me in every way possible
Mentally
Spiritually
Physically
Share the love I desire
That selfish love
That everlasting life
Visions of ecstasy
Visions of fulfillment
Just a simple kiss
Is all I ask of you
May 2022 · 107
Yeah
Donna Bella May 2022
Yeah, I moved on
But did I really?
I think about him
A lot
It’s been a year and he’s still on my mind

Knows me, Not
Donna Bella May 2022
He reads me like a book
Every page he writes
I’m astonished every time
I hide in a maze
Confused of my time
Confused of details I have shown
And what I’ve shown not
Those of hidden disguise
He finds
And so I question what he knows
I treat it as fools gold
Because knowing me is not that easy
But yet still today
It’s easy to him…

360 Feelz
Donna Bella May 2022
I think the hardest struggle I deal with on a daily is wanting to be loved, wanting someone to take the time to show me I am loved. And it’s difficult for me to understand why my entire life why it’s been so hard for people to show me the love I desire. I hate false promises, I hate “I will get better” because lies don’t do anything but run in a circle and I get so tired of being in a 360 field with people I hate turning back, I’m tired of not getting 180, I’m tired of giving my all and being everything when everybody can’t give me an ounce of themselves, I hate it, and as I go day through day it gets harder, as I grow older and want to lay down in the bed with my husband every night and be a wife and be protected, I grow knowing that visions don’t fulfill my womanhood, love does, men gives sometime love and think it’s enough and I deserve so much more. I’m more important than i midday nap, I’m more important than ounce of snore, I want to be put on someone’s pedestal as I always try to hold men to highest degree but yet I am always left crying bending down at my altar talking to mother asking her when is the pain going to end, when will a man hold me higher than hisself, a man that makes sure I’m okay and can feel how I feel from Miles away, seems so untouchable and when I get it it seems so temporary because with a blink of an eye I feel that love comes and goes when it comes to a man loving me…. It’s the truth that write with the tears that I shed and the blood that seeps down my fingertips as I write words with thorns from my pain that has risen.

Breeze
Donna Bella Jul 2021
It’s a cold breeze
Yet I feel no breeze
I fight everyday trying to stand
Yet I fumble again
Sometimes I crumble under pressure
Sometimes I’m fighting my demons to the end
Sometimes I let you get too much of me
So I lack
I begin to lack everything that is needed
I begin to lack life
I begin to lack sense
I begin to not see the path i was on
Here comes the breeze again

Another Round
Donna Bella Jan 2021
I bathe in my sins
I tried to become anew
Instead I came back up
Tears flowing
Tears drying
Just laying here
Fighting battles
Removing swords
Trying to become whole
Once again

Roses
Donna Bella Jun 2020
I’m sending roses...
I’m sending roses through my words to those lost ones...
Lost from the physical...
Lost from the spiritual...
My loved ones
Your loved ones
We will meet once again
-until next time

My love
Donna Bella Mar 2020
Here’s the thing
I fell for you
I fell for you before you fell for me
I was head over heels
My heart flutters with every beat you pump
I look at your face and I see my happiness
I touch your body and I feel your warmth
With you the before’s doesn’t matter
With you it feels like another lifetime

To you,
My love

Abyss
Donna Bella Oct 2019
He asked me if I can stand to his symphony
I said no
He asked if I could come with him
I simply said no
He said can you smile at me
I said no
He asked will you be with me
I simply said no
He said will you forgive me
I said yes
He spoke once again, he said now take my hand
I simply said no
He looked at me confused
I looked at him
Then I walked away
He said come back
I said I’ve let you go a long time ago
He watched me walk away
And every step I took farther away
The step behind me crumbled
And then with my last step he fell to the abyss that he made from every tear that he caused

Kingdom
Donna Bella Oct 2019
It’s something I knew was mine
Something I desired
I knew from birth it was mines
I knew I had to grow into my kingdom
I knew the throne belonged to me
I knew that when men said no, I would laugh and say yes
I now know that this kingdom is mines

Afraid
Donna Bella Oct 2019
Afraid of the possibilities that I’ve seen but didn’t take
A simple step
A multitude that I uttered
The step I could have taken
The irresistible sweet savor of something that was missed
Afraid

Motions
Donna Bella Oct 2019
Tick tock tick tock
If a tick and a tock was a motion
That’s the motion I feel with him
Up down up down
As time wraps around me every night
It caters to me
It calms me during the darkest of days
Somehow with time I feel invincible
I wake up to time everyday
Time touches me as it kisses my heart
These motions I want to last forever

Journey
Donna Bella Oct 2019
I took a different route, a route I didn’t know was curved or straight.
But I knew I had to take that route, I knew that the journey that was presented to me was the journey that was paved for me.
So as I look into the eyes of my journey every night, and I touch the intricate details of the journeys palm, I continue to go further into my journey, and I won’t be turning around until I’m at a dead end.

The cut
Donna Bella Sep 2019
Mentally I’m drained
And when I say I’m drained
I’m emotionally weak
I’m tired of trying to open myself up to people so they can close down on me
Oh yeah, I’m drained
They play me like tic tac toe
And I let them
I have a father who’s a ghost
And the men I date ghost me too
It’s a pattern I see in men
I can’t love the right one
I can’t view the right one
But I know this because I’m always alone
I sit here and contemplate why I’m not lovable
Why can’t they even see the kindness in my eyes
I wonder if I’m that bad
I want to look from the outside and see what they see
What do I do that’s so bad
Do I breathe weird?
Do I talk to much?
Do I think to much?
It’s a million questions I want to know
But will I ever know?
No

Older
Donna Bella Aug 2019
I’m getting older
In an multitude of ways
I can look at my yesterday and see so many things I thought I would have never seen
I fell in love again when I thought I didn’t have anymore love in me
I’m getting older
Maybe he’ll still love me as much as I love him
Im getting older

Farewell
Donna Bella Aug 2019
Stay with me
Is my love not enough?
Do you know that I love you
When I look in your eyes I feel new
You were my spring
You were the river i flowed with
You couldn’t live for me anymore though
I saw your last breath
I saw that you caused it
I felt everything you felt at that exact moment
Farewell

Story
Donna Bella Apr 2019
The story I thought I wrote
The story I thought was made was the story that never began
I became the person who forgot how to love
Because all the love was taken
Yet I still have a story to tell
But I can’t speak it
I can’t write it
I just can’t give you my story

The cut
Donna Bella Mar 2019
He trickled his hand around my heart
He proceeded to pull my heart out
He decided to take it
He played with it and confused the beats
He proceeded to beat it because it didn’t mean anything to him
Then he cut it and said sorry and tried to do it again

The Rose
Donna Bella Jan 2019
I appreciate the rose that grew from concrete. Because I thought that rose couldn’t grow anymore.
I didn’t know the Rose was capable to love once more. But the rose has been on a journey, not a typical one but she’s definitely been searching... searching for more.
More of u, more of me, more of them

Redemption
Donna Bella Dec 2018
Trust me when I say this
I don’t know what redemption is
But I feel like I need to partake in such

I’m here to free myself from the words of failure that lingers
As my serene views become aligned with a life that I desire
Am I redeemed from my past?
Does the serene thoughts that I have overpower the ones that I thought won

Everybody eats
Donna Bella Jul 2018
We starved together and we grind together, the most important part is we eat together. We eat together despite the situation, and despite the hardships. The hunger we felt at night was beyond our means, but we survived and we kicked it with each other. Success came to us overnight, and when I mean overnight it’s about 6-7 years but the thing is our poor moments seemed like it was yesterday. Seemed like yesterday I didn’t have food to eat or could partake in lobster and champagne. Don’t get me wrong though, I’m not to good to sit down and eat take out from the local Chinese spot. I’m just saying since I’m eating, my entire family will partake. Everybody eats!

Thoughts
Donna Bella Jun 2018
I glow like the summer moon, I rise like a butterfly that has just left it’s home, I sparkle like the fairy you claimed didn’t exist, I conquer like the Great X, I walk like the ground is gold, I love like it’s no more left in this world, and my selfless acts are good deeds from the heart and is not of the world. As I fly from this dimension called “Thoughts” I come slightly down to reality to speak words of the mind, and soliloquies of the heart.

Deception
Donna Bella May 2018
Crazy when I speak to him my world becomes such full of him and love, like I’m being held, like
Love sprouts like the flowers In April. Then I think of the word deception....

Deranged
Donna Bella May 2018
de·ranged (mad; insane.)
He cracked me open so I wanted to knock him down. I wanted to shoot him harder than it shot, but it was a temporary feel so I was still hurt. I said to myself the only permanent feel of satisfaction I will get is death. And no not death of thou self, but the death of one other. One year, two year, three, it will never be expected but it will arrive. The wait is just the game but the final is the shot. He will feel the hurt but instead of it being temporary it will be permanent, but he will be lost because I won’t be there to find him once more, so he will be like a stray while I watch in the forefront, while he thought he won the game, he just opened it up for another player to loose. I say, Let The Games Begin!

Victory Fail
Donna Bella May 2018
How can I put two words together that contradicts each other?
How can I write things unknowingly for it to become a beautiful writing?
It’s like how can I hold a heart that’s not mine.
It’s like how I aim to shoot Cupid’s arrows into a heart that intentionally misses them. I thought I won but I did loose. They said the same way you get them is the same way you loose them, I look back to that phrase and confirm.

Vengeance
Donna Bella Nov 2017
Is it weird I thought the world was mines?
I said I was karma I controlled what happened to people who did my wrong and I made sure of that
The people I loved so dearly betrayed me so I gave them what they gave me, but instead of just a scar from the stab they gave me I gave them a jagger and twisted it inside them, I didn’t just give them a scar but I scarred their mind enternally I made their situation worst
But you know what’s wrong?
I’m not a god so do I regret what I’ve done
Yes at times but a lesson learned is better than doing it again
Vengeance WAS mines

Shell
Donna Bella Oct 2017
The layer that closed again
I was open then I fell into a trap
I was trapped by someone
I thought loyalty was all he knew but loyalty wasn’t nothing he knew
So I was exposed and my shell shattered so as I struggle to put the shell together
He’s lost without me because I was his angel I gave him the soul he had
But he left

Cleansing
Donna Bella Aug 2017
The cleansing of my soul
The cleansing of my heart
Water pure as light
Cleansed my hurt today
I submitted my demons to the shrine today
I bowed to surrender them all
To be clean again
To live free again
To not feel the hurt that I felt yesterday
The cleansing of my soul

After Cry
Donna Bella Aug 2017
I wasn't taught about the after cry after a break up
I wasn't taught the morning after a break up the sun wouldn't shine anymore
I wasn't taught that music wouldn't sound the same anymore
I wasn't taught that I would shed so many tears that salt water became my ocean
I wasn't taught that feeling of being lost and not being able to find yourself
I wasn't taught about the after cry

The Promises of Forever
Donna Bella Jul 2017
The hardest thing is staying together
Because life will start you off with a rose but as soon as you turn around then you are holding thorns and then you're ready to let go and move on to find another rose
How can you hold something when you forgot to hold it from before
Maybe you became so foreign to the action of holding something that you wanted to let it go. The fight is up to you, they say. The will to keep fighting the urge to let go is the true fight. The true fight is overcoming from your temporary pain and lasting to get to see your forever with the rose you spoke your forevers too.

Can I?
Donna Bella Feb 2017
Can I ask you something?
Can I ask you about myself?
Can you tell me what you see when you look at me?
Can you see someone beautiful or ugly?
Can you look in between my skin and see the scars underneath?
Can you feel the pain I've felt?
Can you tell me I'm beautiful?
Can I tell you I'm afraid?
Can I?

To My Love
Donna Bella Jan 2017
I apologize and send my condolences to you because sometimes you get lost in me and sometimes I push you away

Sometimes there is a lack thereof I give off, sometimes I don't show the god in me but I let the demons tremble out and take control of my feelings and emotions

I'm sorry I'm dimmed my light on you, I'm sorry I forgot to rise like the moon and the sun

**My apologies for the misunderstanding feelings I give off

Struggle
Donna Bella Jan 2017
The Struggle*
The struggle to be here 100% for him
The struggle to love him like he deserves
The struggle for me to stay with him after I promised with my tongue
The struggle to let my heart continually love him
The struggle to not blame him for what I'm feeling
The struggle to understand him
The struggle to understand us
The struggle to understand the loneliness
The struggle I feel

Yours truly
Donna Bella Nov 2016
I inhaled cannabis for the first time
I felt a freedom I felt free from life
I felt that life was nice and I could live
When my high came down I felt my life wasn't real

To be in a different world, a peaceful world
Is a world I want to live in
I want to be free
I want to live
I want to be me
I want peace


Yours truly

I fell apart
I fixed myself

I laughed it off

I left the hard judgement
I left myself to find myself again

I discovered life
I discovered myself
But I'm not finished, I'm just on the first page trying to finish the book

Deeper
Donna Bella Aug 2016
I'm so deep in love it's like diving in the Mariana, everlasting.
I'm so high off him, it's like I'm intoxicated with every illegal substance.
I'm in so much trouble because I killed for him and I lied for him.
I'm so in love, and I like it.
I like the way he talks, I love the way he sings, I love his smile and I love every flaw.
But he has no flaws to me, our love diminishes flaws.
Never been intertwined before until his heart met with mines and I felt our souls attaching to one another.
The love grows deeper every day as our heart becomes more and more attached.
Deeper. *
Deeper.
Deeper.

Who would ever think my life would change overnight?
Who would ever think I would be so happy?

Who would ever think?

How do I keep balance?
