Puck Jan 2021
It was an ugly face you turned on me
It was a heartbreak in secrecy...

Eccentric
Puck Apr 2020
He painted his face each morning
In the most eccentric colors.
To make her forget the dullness
Of the world around her.

-Toska
Hi I'm new to this. Still figuring out how it all works haha. Hope you'll enjoy my poems, can't wait to read yours ! x
Puck Jan 2021
I want to tell you how I feel
About what you really mean to me
But they told me love can tear you apart
And I’m not brave enough for that

Seasonal depression
Puck Jun 2023
Yes, I deserve spring.

Why did I get attached ?
Puck Mar 2021
I did not know I had a heart until you broke it
313 · Feb 2023
An empty gaze
Puck Feb 2023
When she forgot my name, even the earth had trouble carrying my heavy heart.

i don’t know
Puck Nov 2021
I hate them for making me hate myself

My 11:11 wish
Puck Jun 2020
At night as I lie awake I beg
To let me live as many lives
As there are stars in the sky
I want to experience it all but all I know is the ceiling of my cage
269 · May 2022
not today
Puck May 2022
Clouds often make me wonder if I could suddenly disappear too
Puck Feb 2022
With bare hands
And nothing to lose
Into the air
I built a tower for two

Only lately it has just been me
My head it hurts
Where have you been?

Life is not a fairytale
Puck Jul 2021
When the sky suddenly turned purple and the stars fell down to earth you looked me in the eyes, told me we'd be fine. But as the stars had hit the ground with such a horrendously dreadful sound. There was nothing magical nor fine about the stone-cold death we led.
Puck May 2021
The only thing that makes me cry is the time that keeps passing me by

Colors
Puck Apr 2020
If people were colors

You would be bright blue

And as a simple grey

I would probably get lost in you

3 a.m.
Puck Feb 2023
The walls knew,
My pillow too,
How much I missed you
171 · Jul 2021
Red
Puck Jul 2021
Red
And this time when he screams tears from his throat he lets himself cry too.

The calm within a storm
Puck Apr 2020
In the eye of the storm
I found your glistening ones

And in the midst of the chaos
We sat hand in hand

And watched as
Destruction enveloped us
Learn to love the chaos
129 · May 2020
Misguided
Puck May 2020
And when the lover of the stars
Found himself on the deepest pit of the ocean
He finally understood that all his life long
He had made the wrong choices
Puck Apr 2020
And, no,
I don’t want to forget
The talking
About everything and nothing,
The nights
Dancing under the moon and
The days
Laughing under the sun.
I don’t want to forget
But I can’t bring myself to remember.

Take the leap
Puck Aug 2020
I'm haunted by a life
Of what if's and could have beens

Picture Perfect
Puck Jan 2022
giving meaning to meaningless things is like drinking poison
it makes you hollow
empty
Puck Apr 2020
I saw a man and his drowning dog walking in the rain
Teardrops on his cheeks and a storm raging in his brain
113 · Mar 2022
naive
Puck Mar 2022
I threw myself into the deep. Little did I know it would scar me, climbing out.
110 · Nov 2020
Lover of the ocean
Puck Nov 2020
The tide hit her forever unexpected
Loss and love took equal turns
The waves had always been a hard thing to face
Drowning terrifies her
107 · Nov 2020
You, always
Puck Nov 2020
I knew it because I was sure and I was sure because I knew it
107 · Mar 2022
blue and green
Puck Mar 2022
the love in him it cries for you
yet you left him bare and blue

so he starts to build his walls
would not survive another fall

now stones have replaced his loving heart
and i can never forgive you for that
107 · Jan 2023
Left or right ?
Puck Jan 2023
To feel, or not to feel, that’s the question.
106 · Apr 2020
Pining
Puck Apr 2020
He's like a sea I can't seem to navigate in
It's wind ever changing cours
But you meant far to much to me to ever let go.

weak
Puck Nov 2022
I love the rain
I hate myself
Puck Jun 2020
'What is the greatest tragedy of life?'
The young girl asked curiously

'Forgetting' whispered the old lady

A black hole
Puck Feb 2023
I wish my lungs were like the nightsky, with stars that light the whole thing up
I wish they were a mellow meadow, flowers blooming to the top
I wish my lungs were like a forest, vivid and evergreen as morning light sweeps in

But in my chest they found a hole. So black and starved of life, that tears formed in their eyes. So now when I breathe and feel nothing;

I think of nightskies and meadows and forests

Woman Rivalry
Puck May 2020
Green of jealousy
Whereas instead we should be
Feeling sick of pride
First attempt at a Haiku
94 · Feb 2023
Spaces
Puck Feb 2023
Ask the ceiling then,
Ask the ceiling of my blank bedroom
How many times I have whispered your name at night
93 · Mar 2022
she
Puck Mar 2022
she
I took her name
Her smell
Her laugh
Her fame

I took her mind
Her touch
Her sense
Her shine

Should have known
It would never be enough to make you mine
91 · Jun 2020
I love you
Puck Jun 2020
On a sunny afternoon in the midst of june
You finally found the courage to tell me
What you had only told the moon
91 · May 2020
My wish
Puck May 2020
Sometimes I wish life to be
A little different than it is
I would rather run with stars
Collecting light instead of money
I would rather drown in minds
Exchanging words instead of worry
I would rather smell like life
Inhaling air instead of numbness
I would rather sound like music
Wander together not alone
90 · Feb 2022
i miss you
Puck Feb 2022
lately the smoke in my head has been getting cloudier

i’m afraid i can’t keep up either

Sickness
Puck Jul 2021
A cry for help will always be the echoes of your heart. It's a loneliness you don't even understand.
87 · Aug 2023
Stay this time
Puck Aug 2023
And then at once as sudden as he had left, he came back, and with him colour.
83 · Jul 2023
I am my parents child
Puck Jul 2023
I inherited my mom's anger, and my dad's kind of laziness.
Puck Oct 2020
You could've turned heaven into hell
With just one burning yell
80 · Jan 2022
always tired
Puck Jan 2022
i had hopes as well as aspirations and dreams. but as the river still steadily flowed through the streams. i did nothing to make any come true. now i guess that the time is due. before i had realised, the river was dry and i don’t feel enough anymore to even let myself cry.

Summer romance
Puck Jun 2020
The smell of pine trees and the rain
Always makes me wonder
If I should have given us another chance
After that magical summer
Can I forgive myself for having surrendered?
78 · Oct 2020
Cheers
Puck Oct 2020
A toast to life
Sad and confusing but beautiful at last
77 · Aug 2020
A golden cage
Puck Aug 2020
I grew up in safety
But sadly I can't shake of a fear
A wishing to be
Anywhere else but here

Destructive behaviour
Puck Apr 2020
Why can’t I have nice things?
She wondered as she took
the next pill
of self-destruction
Puck May 2022
Your blood red dress
Twirling in eights

Like an age old contest
My heart still waits

Though not mine to possess
My bloodshot eyes will follow you

Till the night is just a blur
Stuck forever in this slur
75 · Jun 2020
Doomed from the beginning
Puck Jun 2020
Oh my love even the walls wheep for us, the ghosts cry too
71 · Aug 2022
I want to see you again
Puck Aug 2022
Didn't mean for this to happen
Now my heart is feeling heavy
71 · Apr 2020
The pain of loss entails
Puck Apr 2020
It’s winter and the snow embraces my already cold heart
And while I’m walking through white weeping woods
Where lust and laughter is forever doomed
I can’t help myself from thinking back to the time
When the sun lightened the world and you were still mine
Once upon a time
Puck Oct 2020
I am in love with strangers and the unknown
