Stars
Rae Dec 2018
The stars of our love are fading now,
Falling to the pit of my stomach leaving my heart with no lights to guide it,
As it blindly stumbles on.
Our stars fell

Regrets
Rae Dec 2018
A thousand shards of a broken dream,
Piercing, wounding,
Foolish me,
A dream I loved but never lived,
Regrets fill my aching head,
I should've lived I should've loved,
I wish I could've been enough.
Now I lay here to die,
No family crying at my side,
The walls I built brought only pain,
I look at my past with a newfound shame.

Wanderlust
Rae Dec 2018
Trapped,
Filled with a longing,
For places far away,
Mountains and valleys,
Rivers and streams,
I need to see,
I need to know,
I can't stay here,
I've got to go,
Don't take it wrong,
It isn't you,
I've loved but never lived,
Let me go,
I'm dying now,
Same old faces,
Same old frowns,
I'm not happy in this place,
Adventure is my home,
I can't be tamed,
I must be free,
Free to laugh,
Free to live,
Free to leave,
Mama I'll miss you,
I promise to write,
Let me go,
Enjoy the night,
The stars are calling,
The mountains beckoning,
Calling me on to a dream,
Just out of reach.

Fear
Rae Dec 2018
Thoughts,
Like raging rivers,
Like steady streams,
The silence is no longer quiet,
The dreams are no longer hollow.
I can't be afraid anymore.
I have a life to live,
Fear,
They say fear is an illusion,
But when the night is cold and the lights begin to fade,
It seems pretty real to me.
When my thoughts turn wild,
And the tears begin to fall,
Fear,
Turns out it's real after all.
They say it'll be okay,
But they don't know,
They don't know the feeling of dread when the sun begins to set and the beasts wrestle in my mind.
Peace and fear,
The never ending battle inside.
Tell me what you think :)

Broken lover
Rae Dec 2018
I don't know what to think about you,
When I see you I feel love and fear,
When I was broken, you were there.
When I needed someone, it was you.
I am in love with you,
It's scary to say.
More and more each passing day, I love you.
You make me forget my troubles and fears,
Being with you is like every dream come true,
But there's something you don't realize,
I'm broken.
I don't want to hurt you too.
Please let me go before it's too late.
Don't say you'll fight for me,
Love shouldn't mean pain.
Find a girl with sunshine in her eyes,
Not poison in her veins.
I'm sorry.
