Puck Feb 2023
The walls knew,
My pillow too,
How much I missed you
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
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
Puck Jun 2020
Oh, what a courage it takes to live in a world full of cowards
To live is the most rarest thing in the world, most people exist that is all -Oscar Wilde
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.
Puck Feb 2023
When she forgot my name, even the earth had trouble carrying my heavy heart.
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
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
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
Puck Oct 2020
A toast to life
Sad and confusing but beautiful at last
Puck Apr 2020
If people were colors

You would be bright blue

And as a simple grey

I would probably get lost in you
Puck Apr 2020
Why can’t I have nice things?
She wondered as she took
the next pill
of self-destruction
Puck Jun 2020
Oh my love even the walls wheep for us, the ghosts cry too
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

Puck Oct 2020
I am in love with strangers and the unknown
Puck Apr 2020
For my moon,

I'm forever sorry that for you
Morning came to soon
Puck Jul 2023
I inherited my mom's anger, and my dad's kind of laziness.
Puck Jul 2020
And if your heart is a house on fire
A fireman I'll be
Puck Nov 2021
I hate them for making me hate myself
Puck Jan 2021
It was an ugly face you turned on me
It was a heartbreak in secrecy...
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
Puck Feb 2022
lately the smoke in my head has been getting cloudier

i’m afraid i can’t keep up either
Puck May 2020
In the shadows I saw your face
For you would hide away from daylight
To afraid of what the world would say
When they see that you outshine them
Puck Aug 2020
It's a long way down from paradise
But when I look into your eyes
It feels just right
Puck Aug 2022
Didn't mean for this to happen
Now my heart is feeling heavy
Puck Jan 2023
To feel, or not to feel, that’s the question.
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 2020
To find meaning in a world as meaningless as ours,
is what we all crave for. Longing to be loved, but more
than anything else we long the feeling of being in love.
Because even heartbreak outshadows the feeling
of having never loved at all.
Just want to feel alive
Puck May 2020
And I know you want to be heard
But first find the courage to speak
Speak the words that are dying to leave your lips
Tell me everything you have ever dreamt about
and all the things you want to change
Talk for the rest of eternity,
I don’t care, I’ll listen
And I know, I know you don’t believe in love forever,
but I have faith enough for the both of us
Puck May 2020
And as the wind still silently sweeps through the trees
And the sun carries on to shine every day
And the seasons keep on changing
And the years keep coming by
I’ve never loved you more
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
Puck May 2020
I wish I could swallow a dictionary and baffle you with the most extraordinary words in existence.
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 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
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
Puck Mar 2022
I threw myself into the deep. Little did I know it would scar me, climbing out.
Puck May 2022
Clouds often make me wonder if I could suddenly disappear too
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
Puck Jan 2022
giving meaning to meaningless things is like drinking poison
it makes you hollow
empty
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.
Red
Puck Jul 2021
Red
And this time when he screams tears from his throat he lets himself cry too.
Puck May 2020
I used to compare you to a star
Yet it took long before I realized
How truly right I had been

For you did shine brighter
Than anyone I’d ever seen
But had been burning all along.
Because we're all made of stardust
It was intelligable that I had mistaken you for one
Puck Jun 2020
A picked flower
Slowly draining
However it could never be
You or me

A change of mind
Withering and closing in
A last attempt of reaching out
For you from me

With petals lost
The flower's long gone now
And I get that
We will never be the same
You weren't good for me anyways
Puck Jun 2023
Yes, I deserve spring.
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
Puck Oct 2020
You could've turned heaven into hell
With just one burning yell
Puck Jul 2021
A cry for help will always be the echoes of your heart. It's a loneliness you don't even understand.
Puck Feb 2023
Ask the ceiling then,
Ask the ceiling of my blank bedroom
How many times I have whispered your name at night
Puck May 2020
Always driving past, all those places just flashed by
Now I’m older and regret, rushing through my life
Puck Jun 2020
And I was willing to spend eternity’s alone
If that meant that I could have you now
The memory of you would forever be better
Than to have never known you at all.
Love can touch us one time, and last for a lifetime -Celine Dion
