Speaking kind
Words
Doesn’t mean
You have a kind
Heart
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
A shot of his love makes me wild,
spinning, spinning, spinning
like the unknown child
I spin, until I can't no more
coming down
, I fall to the floor
a shot of his love, it makes me wild
spinning, spinning, I can't be still
spinning out, I love the thrill
a shot of his love makes me wild,
singing his blues, like
the unseen child

Casting spells
ringing church bells
boots of leather & diamond shells

rock n roll blares
flowing in the veins
I long to feel your blues
on a dreary sunday noon
I pray to the moon
in awe of her sight
and dream of you
in black & white
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
lost in infinity,
yet your eyes take me nowhere.
the time passes slowly, as if
we don't exist.
this moment is all we have,
and I bathe in it's
beauty.
leaves of our minds
are intertwined,
lost in a toxic wasteland
for days on end,
we don't exist outside
this room.

stars dizzy my
melting mind as
the ground fails
to tether me
to the earth

Half in the earth
half in the ethers
never quite
here nor there
nor anywhere

Foggy glass-stained window
church upon a hill of abundance
Transcending space & time
A light slowly flickers on
Eternal shine
Love is never lost,
maybe just hidden

To  write
Each day until

My fingers bleed

To love you each
Hour until my
Body leaves

To sit here
In the cool morning breeze

To love you from afar


Cool and blue
Distant seas

This is all i long
To do,  to give
Myself

Is nothing new

I’ll write each day until
My fingers bleed
And ill sing every hour
To the brown fall leaves

I’ll love you here
Until my body leaves.

Ghost flowers
Ephemeral existence
we fade into
the rise
of a
sun painted
red

Hands woven
by fate
the seeker
Rides off into the
night
dusk slithers
in through the
rear view mirror

Past moments
Dried up in the
Desert heat
The time is
Never, the time
Is now

That little
piece of heaven
on my tongue
is gone

Awoke
from a pipe
dream

thoughts of mine

What isn't meant for you
will never truly be yours
It will slip through
the fingers
of a grasp
much too tight
for darling don't you
see
there is something
else in store
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
I once lived
in the wild
with beasts
sun shone
as
I danced
recklessly
through the
street
embodied
the presence
of warmth
& heat
had a heart
of
gold
and thoughts
of fleet

once again
I sat on the edge
of desire
sat much too
close
to the fire
flames
ablaze
in the blurry
haze
of lust & tumult
of the summer days

Those people

His
moods
eradicate
my peaceful nature
shift so greatly
Like the moon
Waxing and Waning
Ever-changing
Never stable
I am not able
To keep up
pick me up
spin me around
Shortly after
I hit the ground
bruise my ego
bruise my Face
I can’t keep up with
Your moods
pace

be weary of
those whom

Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
I sway
side to side
my pale grasp
holding a
violet
stem
one hand
in earth
one hand in
the ether
one foot
in the dark
one foot
in the light

Turn a rosy cheek
dismiss me softly

with the devil

Infernal  intent

Twist the
golden
door
****
it opens
Into another realm
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
In a realm where nothing is as it seems,
and the dreamer always dreams
the mystical moon is guiding
me through the doors which
once closed shut, now they are swung wide open
The forbidden fruit tastes sweet
the poison tastes like cinnamon
the vines grow downward into the roots
and the sun rises backwards
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
They keep tellin' me across the river,
with poems strewn all on the wooden floor
they keep tellin' me it gets better
for time heals all which burns cold
yet the long, winding, static road
seems to yearn for me to feel the depths
the ebs and the flows, forcing  me to
drink the past & pain like strawberry lemonade
they keep tellin' me it gets better,
but does it?
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Fire burns
my darkness away
which
lies dormant
always wants
to
come out &
to play
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
Oh, you raven of the night -
subverting the rules, seeking freedom,
ready to spread those black wings & take flight
with your black hair, sweeping ever so slightly over your black eyes the way your mouth moves ever so gently when you speak eloquent lies
the touch of yours, cold to my bones
the way you lay gently in grass with purple stones
How you feel, the words you speak
which light me up , electrify my soul, and make me weak
right before you break me down again
In his arm it feels like heaven or a hell of sorts,
for once I get a taste it's never enough
drowning in it, drowning in it, drowning in it!
love is like a shore or maybe an abyss
ready to burn and leave a scar, here but never quite there
lost in some world of another
for in his arms it feels like heaven or a hell of sorts
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
mantra,
the vessel which
guides the boat
into the everlasting
abundance of truth

silence,
the echo
brimming sunshine
on this plane

truth,
the soul cleansed
from the white noise hums

mediation ,
the key
to unlock
the kingdom
of heaven
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
I forget how your hair sweeps ever so slightly
over your black eyes
I forget how your mouth moves ever so gently
when you speak lies
I forget how your touch feels, cold to my bones
I forget how you lay in grass with purple stones
I forget how you feel, the words you speak
Which light me up and make me weak
Before you break me down again
With words which hurt like limes on my bruised knees
I forget how it feels to lay next to you
I forget how electric it feels too
Cause’ our love was darkness n light
It was like daytime n night
It felt right
But i forget the way your touch hurt
I forget the way your touch healed
Cause toxicity burned into my daydreams
And you were less of a man, more of a fiend
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
The rain amidst my window pane
there's a storm brewing within
my heavy eyes reflect upon
a moment lost
within some sort
of world of another,
a dream of another
what was never truly can be
what wasn't shall not,
for it was as it needed
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
In the mire of sunday news,
I am sick to my stomach
with the blues
The aching, longing
to escape this realm
for California is lit on fire,
the world is struck with dark
desire,
So I turn the volume down,
and let my mind rest with ease
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
storm risin'
yellow sun, dawn
of the horizon
he likes to drive
the curved roads,
I like to ride
all night

jazz, blues,
magnetic muse
by my side

is this
heaven

he likes to drive
the curved roads,
I ride all night
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
born into the arms of
a starry night void,
pushed out
into the
depths of a waning moon
born for whom?
born for what?
die for you,
die for love
but born for whom?
born for what?
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
Meditation on an airplane,
as we both fly high
through the ethers,
and transcend space,
time,
and darkness.

My being is light,
drinks up the clouds
and kisses the stars.

My heart beats still,
still beats for you,
through it all.

Meditation on an airplane,
I race through the
heavens
to reach you
in time,
los angeles
gleams,
sparkles,
shines,
speaks to me
through the
divine.
Samantha Cunha May 2020
Dark iris
veins tainted
and seaside dreams
guide me into
your nights

When my veil
is thin, and the truth
is floating in the
elusive wind

I follow the noise
and seek the storm
for my youth evades me
with each passing sigh

Dark iris
and burning pupils of desire,
I follow you to the unknown
place of worship

I pray to the dark moon
in awe of the sight
and dream of him
in black and white
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
Records strewn
upon a wooden floor,
your eyes sparkle
in the iridescent lights

Hands woven
by fate, by time,
by presence

The sun peaks
through my window pane,
the day has brought us
together.
this moment is all we have

if time was kinder,
slower,
if clocks ticked
in our favor,
this moment
may still exist.
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
ever blooming
ever evolving
the sun is forevermore
the rain sparse
when heaven rains
down upon us
we shed our skin
like egyptian snakes
slithering in
the garden of evil
ever blooming
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
You're scared of
the dark, afraid
to dive deep

For in the depths,
you face your truth

So you stay in the light,
and you chose to stay blind
yet what you escape
you'll always
eventually find
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
a castle made of
dry wind

a castle rests above the
azure seaside

opal beauty reflects upon the
sacred hours

where clocks tick eerily
slow

in a blank canvas
we draw one another into existence
with watercolor
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
Sunset as subset
for hope, while the
sun rises early morning
dawn
my heart rises
& leads me into
the new age

There's a white horse
riding off into the distance
and I think I'll follow
my daydreams swirl me
into the daylight
for the sunset
is subset
for hope &
existence
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
whispers echo
in the dead
of night
promises
of heaven
to ignite
flames
of desire
burning
with
might
far out
my mind
you're still
in my sight
Samantha Cunha Nov 2018
Spin a web of lies
to quicken our demise
For love
is lost
in those
glossy glistening
gleaming
eyes
Samantha Cunha May 2019
To those whom I lost on the road
I bid you farewell with roses & gold
Separate paths winding away
We may meet again one summer day
but to those whom I lost on the road,
Forever in my heart
of implode,
feelings stay
but our roads- they stray
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
The wind blows
my happiness
away
I solemnly
wonder
why it can not stay
like grasping onto
a fleeting feeling
I realize
it's always
leaving
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
The lone
wolf
howls
in
the dead
of night
loneliness
embraced
by strangers
delight

I'm on my seventh life, darling
one more time around
the sun
maybe in
the next life,
ill get it right
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
free as the night
the long, black highway
haunts me into the day
forget who you've been
become who you are
as the wind cries, and howls
for us to take the day
and forget the night
Samantha Cunha Jun 2020
I prance on your wooden
bed like a fawn in
the forrest of ephemeral desire

You sing to me a lullaby
in the distant landscape
where time melts
and ceases to exist

I heard heaven
is on earth
and the angels are
all around

For without your love,
I was once lost

Now I am Found
Samantha Cunha Nov 2018
His eyes
shifty
indeed
his mind
filthy with greed
his love
elusive as can be
my love
overflowing at the sea
seductive
yes
self destructive
a mess
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
All we have
is now

become what you
are, before
they told you
whom you're
supposed to be

universal lucidity
shines thru me, and
sets my soul on fire

eyes level to the horizon
sun sets on the dawn
of our gilded love

all we have
is now
