Poetry Slam
Samora Dec 2021
Sigh,
Why must I be dealt with this tragic,
My heart whimpers while my mind spirals,
You know he does not belong and yet you trapped him in me with lock and chains so he cannot escape this dreaded pain.

He does not belong,
So why must he stay,
He does not want to see me and you keep him astray,
He hates,
He does not see,
So why do I have to have these anxieties.

My intuitions are telling me so many different things,
Cannot tell which one is telling me the truth or if it’s feeding me lies upon my plate,
While I scrape the leftover feelings that’s slowly slipping away,
Deep down I want him to stay but I know,…
I know I must let him go.

Subconscious
Samora Dec 2021
To my hand, to the pen I grab up,
To the paper my thoughts starts to write,
My eyes glued, unemotionally focused,
To the words that climbing out of my thought process

Sealed Words
Samora Dec 2021
All my words wants to scream and shout,
That I end up keeping wayyy deep inside.
No one would let me speak my mind,
It’s always a block or a run or hide.
All my words wants to scream out loud,
But who’s willing to listen to me at this time.
Instead of waiting for a response from someone, I’d rather keep them all deep inside and just live my life.
All my words are all locked and kept,
Inside my head, they yell.
If I don’t get them out I’ll suffocate,
So I say them through text and let it all bleed out.
My real self, that’s stuck on a piece of paper that would rather stay there than to speak with her mouth full of inspiration.

Short & Discreet
Samora Dec 2021
Short and discreet,
Most likely a short dream,
Telling me “I’ll see you soon” as the mysterious figure said in the white room.
Short and discreet,
Follow you in the dark,
Door slams shut,
You look back and grabbed me,
My breathing almost leaving me, almost touching lips,
I woke up with my eyes wide, with my body feeling like I just left cloud 9.
Short and discreet,
Walking in the streets,
Where a bright white flash passes my view and made me stop to think,
That there were people I was going to pass that seemed more like a warning…
Nope, was just a cute boy that I used to admire.

Dreams of You
Samora Nov 2021
My lungs are deep & shallow,
My breathing still can’t follow.
My heart cracks in mysterious rows,
My eyes sees all but they definitely aren’t hollow.
As they fall off one by one, another is built in its place,
Except this heart is made out of steel, as my eyes are filled with your face,
and my mind but a name only my soul can reframe,
That you might be one of my other lost lace that’s the color of a red string that was once lost in all my daydreams.

Love/Like
Samora Oct 2021
I love art,
I like history…
I love museums and the galleries,
I like dancing,
I love music,
I love it here but…
I loved it there
Samora Oct 2021
These stones are too thick,
    Not even my knuckles that pounded on them made even a hint or a scratch,
   Even the blood stains that marked me left me screaming out…
But what’s that going to do if no one out there can hear my shouts
Samora Oct 2021
I wish I can feel seen…
    Instead I’m hidden underneath a stone that’s to hard for me to break free

What Are You?
Samora Sep 2021
What are you?
Are you a ghost,
Are you imaginary to my thoughts.
Are you real,
Am I able to touch you without feeling a chill.
Are you alone,
Better than loneliness and being cast in a hole.
Are you scared,
But brave enough to fend for yourself if you ever disappeared.
Are you a person,
That just learned how to feel.
Are you human,
To the point where if I broke something inside,
Will it be able to heal.
Are you a soul,
So that when we meet you’ll give me your all.
What are you?
Cause right now I may have a clue.

I Deserve
Samora Sep 2021
Whenever I try at finding love, I fail miserably…
I’m not so lucky in this life, I feel like a fool lost her dignity.
I’m too sensitive whenever I’m ghosted and that’s abusive and seem to feel more like a tragedy.
I wasn’t made to crave loneliness, I deserve to be with someone,
…but who out there is willing to put me as their priority?

Never Settle
Samora Sep 2021
Dream more and become a hero,
Understand life is a bunch of zeros,
Be your own brand never settle,
Cause that’s when life will take you by the throat and you will never swallow,
And you’ll become more shallow,
Never fly like sparrows,
And soon become a hollow,
That’s when life gets real narrow,
And you will never follow,
Your dream to become who you want to be and that is Free.

The Night Sky
Samora Sep 2021
Nighty night the clock strikes 12,
My eyes still awoke in this warm blue cloak,
As I stare up high in the sky while my eyes shimmer like shooting stars like rockets,
The night is still young and I’m glad I’m still here to watch it

I’d Rather…
Samora Aug 2021
Was I a joke,
Was I a fool,
Was I the only one who was cruel.
I’m loosing hope,
I’m loosing trust,
Im loosing every catching soul I’ve touched.
I cannot take, this anymore,
I’d rather not be here and that’s a plus.
Cause now I know,
I do not belong,
And I think that’s better than the best.

Untitled
Samora Aug 2021
I hate the decisions I made in life,
I hate the life that I’m living,
I’ve made some decisions I’ve really regretted,
I hate who I have become.

Hottie Tottie Maserati
Samora Aug 2021
Hottie Tottie Maserati
Got the whole world feeling naughty,
Everybody’s true colors showing off of me like painted bodies.

What renders me is my soul,
That blows off hot and cold,
Keeps me crisp in the winter time and keeps away from feeling dull.

Smashing, I’m unfazed,
Dashing, I’m unclaimed,
Lonely sorrows that hunts this real world turns my dreams into castaways.

Now I’m all alone,
On this island I call home,
I’d rather stay here than lift my mask for others who really never ever plays fair.

As I wake with beaded eyes,
Slumbered in with my bedded head,
Like I’ve been asleep for 5 whole years and seem to have woken up until 10.

Surprised to see my own reflection,
Bathing in the sunlights perfection,
where half of the shade hits my face making my eyes glisten in the light that turns my eyes golden.

I’m off to explore more, dear heavens galore,
As I lock and shut this door that separates me from my comfort zone where I’m usually stored.

Since I’m free I’ll go out and take a look see,
Take a walk out and enjoy me,
As I eat alone seeing faces unknown I catch a cute face gander my way wondering if I should say hi and let him into my scenery.

Instead of letting him getting to know me I’d rather get to know a little about me,
Went to go see a movie and of course I was pleased,
In my own skin where everyone can barely see that I was clearly enjoying my time alone knowing I can be.

But know this,
I still hold a flame that everyone refuses to see underneath,
That I’d rather not let loose,
Now won’t that be a breathe.

As I call it a day waiting for tomorrow to come and bathe me away,
My eyes fall heavily wanting me to sleep,
As I do I recall upon my memories and entered into a really deep sleep knowing in the next couple of weeks it’ll feel like a brand new me but the same Maserati.

Healed
Samora Aug 2021
I cry, whenever I’m alone.
I cry, when there’s no one left in the room.
I cry, when so much has been held.
I cry, and let all my tears flow down like I have let all my fears go.
I cry, cause there are people in this world,
Because there are people who can’t hear,
The other voices that used to call out their names,
When the people that were there,
Actually cared.
I cry, cause that person has lost a good heart,
That person has lost a good person who cared about them the most.
And I can’t say a word.
I can’t even speak.
I cried so much that I can’t even breathe.
As soon as my tears are finally dried.
I fall to sleep, knowing that the next day is going to be better.
Cause my tears always seems to heal every part of me whenever I finally let all of it go.

Incorrect
Samora Aug 2021
Maybe I was actually wrong about you,
Watched you pull the sword right out infront of me,
Like I didn’t feel any pain but that’s cause it was already broken,
Shattered to pieces,
By the words that you’ve spoken,
Which ended up being a blank page filled with so much of your hatred,
That I could not yet understand it,
And yet you keep wondering why no one else can fill it,
No matter how much you lower your standards for the people that would soon deserve it

Ghost
Samora Aug 2021
Love is a distraction
Like going to war between real life and dreaming up a fantasy,
I’d rather disappear than to let someone get ahold of me

Straight to the Point
Samora Aug 2021
Yes I want you,
I want to touch your hair with my hands,
I want to lay beside you when you sleep,
I want to talk to you like I’m talking for hours on days end,
I want to snuggle up to you while I caress your face with my fingertips that’ll send shivers to you until the moon bends.
Yes I want you,
But no not sexually,
Not to the point where you are deep, all the way inside me,
I want to know you physically,
Up close directly also emotionally,
How much straightforward can I get by just telling you this exactly,
You don’t seem to understand it,
What I’m looking for, it seems like,
So imma still keep loving me until someone sees it the first time.

Relief

You know that saying “Lighting in a bottle”?
Well,
That’s how you made me feel,
Until I bursted free and told you how I really felt.

Stop Trying
Samora Jul 2021
I’m not something that you see me to be,
You only see what I want you to see,
And what you saw was a half version of me,
You heard my stories and only saw  my broken parts,
But I’ve also seen all of your sacred scars,
Kept them hidden deep, kept secret,
Had to follow the clues with an intelligent mind,
And had to break some strings knowing you will never find,
That the true me hidden behind all these signs,
Made you believe that I wasn’t worthy to climb.

So I made you believe that I needed to stop trying,
Stop trying to be something I’m not,
But the truth is that is me,
I just couldn’t take you dodging me,
Seeing me as only an option was your choice to make,
And you seeing me as easy is what I wanted you to believe,
And have me focus on me to the point you’ll never have me,
I don’t care if you don’t like me,
I don’t care if you call me crazy,
Cause those are the parts that I want you to see,
The parts that you think are the real me,
Besides, why would I want to try for a guy who just gaselighted me?.

Carry Gently

Bow and arrow,
Love is narrow,
Carry my heart gently and then I’ll slowly follow…

Burning Bridge
Samora Jul 2021
Everything I say is like a ticking time bomb,
Every word that I write seems to bury me deep inside,
Everything that I think always seems to ooze out and bleed,
Ooze out and crack like bricks,
Delusional,
Disrespect,
All started with just a text,
Everything that I’ve built,
Came crashing like spilt pills,
Gang up on me,
Felt betrayed,
Now I try to move away,
From the love that caused me pain,
I try not to feel drained,
But what came out of their mouths,
Made my brain burst all over again into bright red flames,
And now I feel shame,
Like my words aren’t the right words to say,
So maybe I should just keep quiet and let my brothers not hear my truth,
Cause whatever I say next,
May burn down a bond instead of just a bridge

Let Go
Samora Jul 2021
Stop trying,
Let go.

Let go of the hatred,
In your soul,
And move on,
Let go.  

Forward is endless,
Infinite devotions,
But don’t loose hope,
Just let go.

Wishful Thinking
Samora Jul 2021
Sleeveless,
Heart out,
Sheds deep like a bruised knee,
Cracked open like blood spilled into a sea of water,
Watching the liquid free.

Burn
Samora Jul 2021
How many time before I burn,
Barked up the wrong tree before I learn,
Baby steps before I lean,
Playing hard to get than being seen.

How many times before I burn,
Scorching my insides which then turns cold,
The fire inside of me froze,
Until one day I let go.

How many times before I burn,
Loosing every time I open up my wounds,
Kept rushing through but now I stand my ground,
Waiting for both of us to choose.

How many times before I burn,
How many heartbreaks can I take,
Guess that depends on my love for you,
You being my one true twin flame.

Crescent Sky🌙
Samora Jun 2021
Shines so high,
                          In the sky
                            where it lights
                             in-front of my eyes,
                            Crystal clearing,
                           The view is amazing,
                          Left behind
                        A spec of dust
                      Don’t fear that they’re falling,
                   On this sandy beach,
                 Where it lathers me softly,
             With every inch
         Across my skin
       Covering my body,
     The water graze my feet,
   So sweet,
    And yet,
     I’m left feeling upset,
       In defeat,
         Less upbeat,
           Cause no one is here physically with me.
              But I guess that’s fine,
              Used to being incomplete but not
              lonesome,
              My own company brings me creative
              love
              and that’s strong
              Like broken hearts that turned into
              diamonds,
              Now that’s wholesome,
              And I’ll never change a thing about me,
              Watching myself blossom.

It Hurts
Samora Jun 2021
The love that I have still burns,
Your words that you’ve said still hurts,
The meeting that we never had still wavers,
Like the moon and the sun are both alone,
You made it clear that you didn’t want me,
Misunderstood me and I’m now lonely,
You misunderstand and now your regretting,
The lose of my heart has started closing,
Delusional is what you called me,
And that hurts and now what was the purpose,
You told me to leave you be,
So that’s exactly what I will do,
So stop sending my heart into shock,
And sending me waves of butterflies,
Cause even if we’ll never meet,
It still hurts,
I’m just happy I’m still alive.

Heart Shaped Locket
Samora Jun 2021
This key that’s wrapped around my neck,
Stays hidden beneath every memory,
Cause the one who has my heart shaped locket,
Has already thrown it away, right in front of me
Jun 2021 · 142
Rain
Samora Jun 2021
Just a memory lost in the casualty,
Deepens the strings but let’s them loose much calmly now,
Cause every lose disappears less frequent now,
Cause I’m at peace with myself and with others now,
Like raindrops dripping down my face but the sounds are less frightening now
Jun 2021 · 268
Ugh
Samora Jun 2021
Ugh
Snuggled up in my blankets,
      No sound but the spinning fan,
              Eyes drooping not wanting to wake,
And yet,
                                          It’s 5:45pm,
                                 I gotta get up,
                       Ready for work.

Break
Samora Jun 2021
These walls are made up of bricks,
Stands tall but not ready to fall,
I breathe in while my heart races wildly,
So my heart could continue beating steadily,
You seem to be always my trigger,
This time not for emotions,
My heart wants something more deeper,
That makes my eyes linger with devotions,
Makes my body lit like fire,
Makes me want to demolish these bricks down with a hammer,
And reach out and make me look desperate and needy,

I breathe out,
My vision,
I can now see clearly,
But if I do that I know I’ll be chasing,
So I think I’ll just stand my ground and put my feet down,
Until you say those words then maybe I’ll break free,
But until then right now in my mind,
You’re like a ghost to me,
You’re nothing and now I can finally move my feet and move freely.
Jun 2021 · 437
Fall
Samora Jun 2021
We are forever,
We keep it secret,
And yet you keep my body all nice
                                                       and warm,
Even I can’t keep patient.

Sigh with a smile
Samora May 2021
Break me,
Free me,
From this deadly place,
Spread my wings outwards,
Spread them high and wide.

See me,
Become me,
Shedding through these veins,
Tainted with cruelty,
Free me from that pain.

Breathe in,
Deeply,
Can finally feel alive,
No other can hold me down,
Cause I finally came to fly.

Breakdown
Samora May 2021
Heart felt,
Heart break,
Can’t stand to look you in the face,
I cry,
With tears in my eyes,
Can’t seem to form words for me to speak,
If I tend to think,
My head will explode and combust with emotions I won’t be able to control
May 2021 · 69
Mistake
Samora May 2021
Head tilted back,
Body froze,
Legs locked,
Arms cold,
Tears shed,
They can’t stop,
Cause they know what they’ve done,
Cause now the damage is done.

Body closed,
Wrapped around in blankets,
My eyes shut,
Tear stains glued to my face,
Trying to shake all of you away,
But my dreams are not letting me,
Letting you go,
And I’m starting to think that I may have the problem.
May 2021 · 92
Pride
Samora May 2021
I shouldn’t be weak, no.
Will be living my dream, yes.
Not stuck between stones, no.
I should be taking control, yes.
Not locked in a cage, no.
But surrounded by love, yes.
Surround me with hate,
And I’ll leave with my pride and surrender to fate.

Leo
Samora May 2021
Leo
Scaling, away,
Every harm that I’ve been praised,
Drowning the sorrows I’ve washed away,
Gone in an instant that won’t be claimed,
I have forgiven the love that I had,
I have controlled my fears into a lions den,
So one day if you try to reach you won’t be grabbing an inch
May 2021 · 94
I Just Wanna Scream
Samora May 2021
Why, why, why me,
Must I go through this deep pain,
That’s driving me back down this lane?

It’s driving my brain back into a craze,
Where I want to hit walls and call it a day,
But it keeps pressing and pressing like it is done trying to be tamed.

Written Words
Samora May 2021
Why is writing less such a praise?
When writing more makes us gaze,
With undying eyes that is framed,
From an almost broken glass that is hanged,
To see what the other sees,
Through their eyes to ours is a crime,
Not even that we can obtain,
We can feel what the writer feels,
Off from a single page

Breaking my own heart,
And I don’t even know it,
Breaking them one by one,
While the noises are finally quiet

Too Late
Samora May 2021
Sleeping,
Fading,
Tired,
Closing,
Drifting,
Back,
To where it all started,
To where it all happened,
To where I first,
Had my breaking point,
Stripped.

Falling,
I’m falling,
I’m breaking,
I’m cracking,
I cannot,
Get back,
On my feet again,
Sorry,
I’m sorry,
I don’t,
Deserve you,
But instead I’ll love to learn,
But the memories are already burning.

Sleep Terrors
Samora May 2021
Everything’s silent,
Which means everyone’s asleep,
Which means the thoughts in my head,
are finally awake,
Bursting out with fright,
Causing me my sight,
To see something in the shadows,
That I can barely even fight,
Drawing with my eyes,
That keeps me frozen, still, and steady,
That I can’t touch by my own hands,
That makes me breathe hard and heavy,
Except, am I even awake or is my brain playing tricks?
Finally, my mind is back in my head but can I ever be fixed?
Apr 2021 · 85
Shadow
Samora Apr 2021
They linger,
They drift,
They fall
Become darker,
Masking their scent,
From perfection,
Loosing their ways through destruction

Fragile
Samora Apr 2021
Change is foreal,
Love is the seal,
That locks away all the bad parts and turns them real frail,
Then turns off all the lights and gives it that blue tingle feel,
I learned how to laugh when I was happy,
Learned how to cry when I was sad,
How to be angry when I was mad,
But now that I look at you I feel bad,
Like I want to get revenge,
But since I’m so fragile,
That doesn’t seem to be apart of the plan,
Healing seems like the best bet,
Just don’t be the reason why I break,
I’d rather be alone for the time being and let alone go crazy,
Crazy? I wonder if maybe you meant that kinda love,
The Joker and Harley Quinn kind of love,
But it seems you’ve already found that type of love,
With someone new,
So I think I’ll fall back than fall through,
Cause now I think I’ll lay here and feel all kinds of shaded blue
Apr 2021 · 172
Love
Samora Apr 2021
Let him have it,
Let him be happy,
Let him have the love that he’s always been wanting,
Get rid of all the pain that I know he’s been suffering,
Get rid of all the lies that I know he’ll be loving,
Let him be happy,
Let him be free,
Let him pray that one day he will soon see,
Let him pray someday that he will love her,
With all of his soul that God put up upon her,
Love her gently,
Love her with kind,
Love her with affection more than I’d ever gave you,
Cause one day you’ll be apart of a family and all this love that one day you will soon give away

Hidden
Samora Apr 2021
I hide behind empty things
I blend between broken strings
I shrink when I start to sing
I’m hidden behind my own reflection
To far gone my body is deflating

Mirror Mirror on the Wall
Samora Apr 2021
As my eyes trickle with tears as they fall,
But why must I worry about what other people think when I should be able to walk and talk with pride striding tall?
I see reflections of myself in others that I don’t appear to see,
But if I were to take a glimpse of my own face and take their eyes I’ll believe,
That every story has a happy ending without her King.

Mirror Mirror what do you see?
“I see beauty with no in between,
I see flaws that is loved by many,
I see two loving parents who raised one hell of a Queen,
So please stop your whimpering and go find your ending,
Cause what I see in you is just the beginning”

Criss Cross Apple Sauce
Samora Apr 2021
Like playing tricks with wits and with damaged flaws,
Being mirrored inside out without a second thought,
Played with until my heart gets clawed out,
Not me,
So go along and play with me with all of my broken parts,
All they is are past hurts that I don’t want anymore
Apr 2021 · 65
silence
Samora Apr 2021
A different note
A different vibe
A second chance
A second thought
A final blow
A final end
I’ll move on silently
Without any demands
