That little
piece of heaven
on my tongue
is gone
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
An aching heart
a longing within
for a home
which I've never
known
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Awoke
from a pipe
dream
divine
god speaks
through my pen
in gold speckled
shine
quench
the thirst
of these
seeking
thoughts of mine
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
What could have been
is not what
you think it
is
for if it was meant
to it would have
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Shocked
by his
electromagnetic
touch
his pale hands
were rough
loving him
was never
enough
Magnetic
currents
intertwined
As we trekked
the road
for a dream
he once
sold
but unseen
forces
saw
my cards
&forced me
to
fold
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
You and I,
the 405,
the sunshine of our rain
the storm of our own making
the never ending highways
the electric blue skies
the prophetic visions
you and I,
the 405
the clouds are high
so am I
you and I,
take the ride
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
There's a path in
the garden
where we came
from

and I long to feel your
blues

Now I walk
the path alone
& my feet turn
red

My dream is gone
and the days
are wicked
& long

Searching for
the higher realms
wild maned lovers
I'm a fool on the
journey,
don't bound
me to your chains
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
I aimed
for heaven
yet fell
into the depths
of hell
I fell deep down
with a wicked
frown
dirt & blood
on my satin
party gown
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
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
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
My ideals
used to sway
like the wind
Now I stand firm
with the thickest
of skin
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
Speaking kind
Words
Doesn’t mean
You have a kind
Heart
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
Coca Cola bottles
On the floor
Gilded butterrlies
Painted on the wall
A hole in the wall
He raged again
A hole in my heart
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
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
All it was
is all it
could have been
endless
realms
of possibility
cease to
truly exist
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
Full moon
vast, glowing, radiant,
hues of midnight blue
embody your
being, as you
speak to me
in riddles
fiddling my mind
one home,
one love,
one me
was never
a comfort to call mine

Under the
moon, I'm split
in two
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
If it comes
let it
if it goes
bid it goodbye
if it flows
follow the current
if it slows
be careful
not to drown
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
write your verses
speak them into
the wind
let them fly,
fly high amongst
the breeze

write your
name into
the trees
etch them in
and be free

leave your mark,
leave your woes,
embrace the day!
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
keep the hallway
lights on, and sing
me a song
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 Dec 2019
my body ravaged by the
snowstorm, the winter breeze,
and the red wine on my
night stand made of gold

when the bath soaks
my sins, and drowns them
away, the needle
is still sharp and the
words still cut deep
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
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
He said
tell me more
but maybe less
as my
seams unravel
from my velvet
dress
I don't do this
often
I do confess
He said
sure my love
you
seem a mess
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Awoke
in a field
of lilacs
dire
dreams
he unraveled
me slowly
at my seams
a man whom
believed
in
do by
any means
and I pranced
in the field
with
nomadic
fiends
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
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
brimming speckled
eyes of gold
we trek through
the
labyrinth
crossing
thresholds
from earth
to ether
low & behold
for there are
others seeking
a dream they
once sold
Samantha Cunha Nov 2018
Let the inspiration
Flow through
Your veins
Only love remains
Let it electrify
The soul
& let the art
Take control

The lone
wolf
howls
in
the dead
of night
loneliness
embraced
by strangers
delight
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
I'm looking
back
while
facing
forward
it's all
so clear
as it
drifts
away
fogged up
mirror
clearer
visions
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Nomadic
tendencies
in the
night
I never belong
to anyone
in my
sight
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Those people
whom aren't
for everyone
those
are
my people
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
Magic words
sacred beings
nothing isn't
everything is

hidden
in the
open

fall up, fall
down, fall
all around


dull as day
alive
as night

driftwood
drifting
away, slowly
violently

we are one,
we are
apart
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
He spins
elaborate tales
tips my libran
scales
imbalanced madness
prevails
in the house
of sin
I roll the dice
never win
lights flicker
in the utter
dim
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
There's infinity in your eyes
and they tried to steal
our paradise

The palm trees burn
to the rooted ground
& the wind cries
to be forgiven for his sins

Beyond, beyond,
beyond, beyond the egyptian
blue skies on fire
as ash falls upon your
head like a halo

They tried to steal our
paradise
and infinity
leads me
into your eyes
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Infernal  intent
mind was twisted
& bent
he calls out
Where art thou?
silence
as
I fell deep down
with a wicked
frown
dirt
& blood
on my party gown
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Living in your head
that's a nice place to be
but the present
allows
you to see
the beauty around
the gold
to be found
the frown
on the stranger
you can help
turn around
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
I fell deep down
with a wicked
frown
dirt

your love


in vain

my seaside dreams

in vein

harbored heart

in vain

abyss of cold desires


in vein

the needle

in vain

the rush

in vein

your love

in my veins


this heart

in vain
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
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 Mar 2020
disillusioned & dizzied
by the reckless, endless nights
forlorn & seeking
a place to call home

The streets are void
of light
the highways
never end
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Potential
is like a butterfly
it floats around
beautiful
enigmatic
& full of hope
yet it fleets
away
Grasp
that butterfly
with warm palms
& embrace
it fully
then watch
it fly
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 Jan 2019
A stable

black ocean
yearns for
commotion
abyss
of trouble
summons me
calls my name
echoes
dreary syllables
roll off
his
tongue
the moon howls
for me
once
drowned me
darling
I now
bathe
in the
sun
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 Jan 2019
Turn a rosy cheek
dismiss me softly
when I dance
with the devil
in the dusk
of night
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
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
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 Nov 2019
I dreamt of you again,
lost in deja vu
impenetrable silence hums
in my window pane, luring me into
the world I often tried to escape
there's a road which never ends
there's a light which never shines
there's a you
who is never here
I dreamt of you again,
fifth time this week
i will meet you again
when my mind drifts off to sleep
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
Waves roll thru
the peaks and valleys
at high tide noon

viridescent sea
calls to my shores
a call to action
for change is running me
high and dry;
leaving me to inhale
your sigh

Waves roll thru the
valley of my mind
high tide noon
the time to come
has come too soon
for change is calling my name
again, and when the West
summons, I'll wade in the
water until the waves turn blue
I no longer wait
and wait
for you
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
