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.

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.
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

Why is it Always You
Samora Apr 2021
That I keep getting these deja vus,
It always seems like I’ve seen you before
But when I look back,
you were never there.

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.

Judge Me
Samora Nov 2020
Judge me here,
And judge me there,
Judge me anywhere,
I probably wouldn’t care,
You only know specs, and pieces of my own,
You don’t know all, so judge me as you go.

Judge me intellectually,
Judge me emotionally,
Judge me mentally,
Judge me spiritually,
Judge me anyway you want to judge me,
But make sure you do it confidently.

I’m judged a lot,
By people that gossip,
By people that barely knew me in private,
By people that pretends to think they know me,
By a text or some words said out in context,
I probably wouldn’t care cause y’all barely hit the surface.

Played
Samora Jan 2021
The games they play are just miserable
And late night plays are disgraceful
Fall in love first and they disappear
Like crying behind a see through glass wasn’t painful enough and yet you ended up breaking it like playing truth or dare
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

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

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.

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

Dreaming
Samora Mar 2021
Free ride
Fried to the core inside
Tried
To make me more afraid
Hide
Frightened of what might come out
Doubt
Mortified
To make me feel certified
In and out my life
I’m alright
And fine
Okay
K
I’m not
And yet keep telling
Repeating
How am I doing?
Answers
That I cannot retype
Words
I can’t rejoice
The noise (wake up)
That sounds so familiar
Memories
Clogging
Jamming (wake up)
Pounding
Banging
Slamming
What’s happening?
Brain was melting (wake)
Breaking
Freak train back on track (up)
Breathing
Steadily back and fourth
Steadily back and fourth
Rocking
Eyes slowly open
I peak
I blink
At last
It’s finally morning.

Wishful Thinking

Sleeveless,

Sheds deep like a bruised knee,
Cracked open like blood spilled into a sea of water,
Watching the liquid 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

Love/Like

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.

Pulling Strings
Samora Mar 2021
Memories they cling on my deepest of strings.
Sometimes they break but other times they sting.
Next to the heart not that far apart that they’ll be lost with the thought of me falling hard.

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.

Light The Way
Samora Feb 2021
Light me up like silver and gold,
Light the core that burns in the cold,
Light the way where I meet and end,
Light the freaking cries that's keeping me hold,
Cause there's no way I'm getting stuck here alone,
Cause I got more things to fulfill until I fall and sin.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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?

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

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?.

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”

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.

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.

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.

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.

Crazy Train
Samora Apr 2021
Every dying minute that I have,
Every dying minute that I find,
Every bleeding day that I take listening to your heart,
Every single day,
Why am I afraid,
Why am I afraid,
I can't believe I said that,
Can't believe I did that,
Said that I was talking,
Never gave a name,
Like a stranger, was in my thoughts,
Clinging to me like a narrow arrow,
That leads me to the next guessing game,
Like, what I do?
It's always the same,
That, dying pain, that I seem to recognize,
every time I make a mistake,
When all I could have said that,
you were my Bae.

Your, kindness follows every walking hour,
Every second that I think it's over,
Just because I made 1 tiny error,
Now ignoring with more silent terrors,
I deserve it, I deserve it all,
You, gave me love and I just let it fall,
And now my path is blocked by a narrow wall,
Blocked away from your inner thoughts,
That I can't get through, and instead I'm lost,
Lost inside my own crazy mind,
That I can't control,
When my hearts on fire,
My heart keeps pounding,
My words are drowning every single reader,
That wants to come near,
To read their letters out of fear.

It's like my tongue is twisted,
And I can't sleep through this knowing somethings missing from your silent treatment,
All I hear is, should I say it,
Should I say it, no,
It's too early to express my feelings, yes,
Maybe I'll just wait it out,
Let him tell me first, so I don't feel 'barrased or,
Should I say it now,
Since I'm crazy inside,
Let the waves take me for another ride,
Let this crazy out,
Let this crazy loose,
Let this crazy take over my mind
and let it drown me out,
Like a Crazy Train buried deeper inside,
Waiting for someone to unbreak these chains
restraining me on every side,
But that's on me, that on me,
Every single day of every week,
That's my train when I'm deep inside my feelings,
Keeping every word sacred from your hearts tongue's follow,
I'd rather keep it caged deep down,
Letting no one in and keep faking smiles.

Can't stop writing all these heavy poems, can't stop sharing all my happy feelings, cannot stop waiting for discretion, my thoughts on fire like some burning metals, dripping down my face like a melting figure, that I cannot bring myself to finally call this, like a tortured fire, like a blazing arrow, shot straight through a farrow, through a narrowed pathway,
Through this Crazy Train that I cannot follow.

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.

Surround me with hate,
And I’ll leave with my pride and surrender to fate.

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?

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.

Breathe
Samora Feb 2021
Every year is always the same,
It’s almost like playing a game,
I wake up, get dressed, put up a straight face and then later I go back to sleep...
I want to try something new,
Without another,
Cause no matter how hard I try or how I try to be me,
Nobody would ever want to stay and that’s okay,
Lol Maybe go ice skating on a lake,
Try the most delicious of stakes,
Go to concerts and go to raves,
Maybe even go surf the waves,
Even go snowboarding, now that’s what I’ll crave...
Not stuck at home being a bore,
But somewhere where I can smell the air,
Outside where there’s a breeze on my face,
Someplace, where I know that I’m scared and yet not feared,
The stuff that gets my heart racing or look at the ocean and watch my face clear...
I know what I want and I know what I need,
I want a loving man but can leave as he please,
As long as he stays but not trapped but free,
Just like me, the person that I finally wanna be,
Now won’t that be a dream

But Me
Samora Feb 2021
Everyone's happy but me,
Everyone's wealthy but me,
Everyone's in love or falling but me,
instead I'm just falling,
Deeper and deeper into my own hole I call an empty being,
Everyone's smiling and not pretending,
Everyone has someone to hold and fending,
Everyone's successful and living and breathing,
But me, I feel like I'm suffocating,
I feel like I'm stuck,
I feel so alone,
I feel no one wants me because where I'm at now,
I feel so useless,
I feel so...not me,
I feel so out of place, like this isn't home.

Every soul is drifting,
Every past is leaving,
Everyone I thought as friends are now depleting,
Like every step I've tried to make has all gone to waste,
Like living in a home with bird cages that I cannot escape,
And me just feeling like I don't belong, just makes me feel more out of place in a world that's filled with love,
Feeling like my time is almost up,
Like everyday is draining me, until that day finally comes,
But I never end up doing it because what's the point,
People that I knew will start to care, no,
People that knew me will start to care... and I don't want that,
People that knew me will start to support me and I don't want that,
People that knew me would start to cry and I don't need that,
I would rather feel what everyone else has instead of feeling so down in the dump,
Until my body is six feet under, I'm gonna try to live my best life until my time is up.

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

Black hole
Samora Mar 2021
Looking way way up,
Out of this dark dark place,
Seeing the bright white stars,
Inside this really deep hole

Most of you seem out of place,
Looking way way down,
I seem to be in my space,
Ignoring the very loud crowd

It may seem lonely down here,
And so much fun up there,
I may wanna make a bigger hole,
And drown us all and make us see fear

Looking way way up,
I think to myself while my heads clear,
I think to myself while my eyes tear,
I think to myself, why am I down here?

Blue Haze that craze,
that burns that chase,

they form,
and then later,
torn.

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 controlled my fears into a lions den,
So one day if you try to reach you won’t be grabbing an inch

Between You and Us

Trees are green more greener than we.
The ocean is blue but sometimes they mold.
Flowers they bloom cause they grew from their roots, unlike us,
Who was formed out of dust and then later will soon
rust.
Between you and us,
We aren’t really that different,
because sooner or later we’ll both be
lost.
No matter the cost.
