She Writes Mar 2018
You took my innocence
And stole my childhood
I will not forgive
I won't ever forget

I will, however
Move on

I am not a victim
I am a survivor
What you did out of weakness
Has made me stronger
She Writes Jun 2018
I bite my lip
Until I bleed
To prevent my thoughts
From pouring out
Drowning you
Before we have a chance
To swim
She Writes Nov 2017
I want you to take me
Savagely, passionately, madly
Crash into me

Let all your worries melt away
Insatiable need replacing all thoughts
With lust, desire, craving

Breath shaking
Bodies aching
Don’t stop

Lost in a sea of sweat
And waves of sheets
Drown in me

Bodies enterwine
Possession: you are mine
Never leave me
She Writes Mar 2019
Death must fear me too much
To take me away
So instead he takes those I love
If only death knew
I am not afraid of him
I welcome him with open arms
I stand next to her casket screaming
TAKE ME INSTEAD
She Writes Jun 2018
Some choose
To tell their stories
She wears hers
On her skin
She Writes Jun 2018
I had accepted my fate
Content with drowning
You woke me up
Made me crave life again
And just like that
You saved me
When I wasn’t looking for a savior
She Writes Nov 2017
When he left she decided;
Dying didn’t sound so bad after all
She Writes Nov 2017
Some fear the night;
Scared of monsters in the dark.
I prefer the darkness;
The only demons I fear
Are the ones inside me.
She Writes Apr 2018
I can no longer tell if writing is helping me heal or hurting me more.
She Writes Nov 2017
and one day I realized
you look at her
the way I look at you
She Writes Dec 2017
Yes I am clingy,
But you will never find someone
There for you like I will be.

Yes I am needy,
But when you need reassurance
I’ll be full of soothing words.

Yes I am jealous,
But you will never find someone
More loyal than me.

Yes I am possessive,
But you will never find someone
That values you like I do.

Yes I have flaws, I am human. Please don’t fault me for loving the way I do.
She Writes Nov 2017
Thinking of you

Burning in my throat
From words unsaid

Pressure behind my eyes
From the headaches

Churning in my stomach
From the disgust

Pain in my chest
From the screaming

Yearning in my heart
From missing you
She Writes Dec 2017
As I sit over here
Thinking about you
I wonder if you’re sitting over there
Thinking about me too

I’d never ask
Out of fear
That I am not the one
On your mind, dear

I’d rather live with hope
That you think of me, lover
Than know for sure
It is another
She Writes Aug 2018
I laid my soul out to bare
This type of honesty from me is rare
I said the three little words
Now my emotions are stirred

I am finally happy
Blissfully sappy
Picturing a future
A relationship to nurture

In the back of my mind
Are feelings of another kind
Negative thoughts loom
A sense of impending doom

I’m scared you will tire of me
Up and flee
Worried I’ll end up hurt
I am on high alert
She Writes Apr 2018
I wish I could view the world
Through the eyes of a child
Finding beauty in the small things
Unapologetically happy
Blissfully unaware of the evils
Lurking behind every corner
She Writes Apr 2018
I am a tidal wave
I will crash around you
Pull you in deeper
Make you fall in love
With my quiet violence
As we stood together
At the edge of the ocean
I couldn’t help but wonder
If you wanted to dip your feet in
She Writes Feb 2018
When your life gets dark
I will shine a light on the positive

When you feel empty
I will fill that void with laughter

When you feel weak
I will help you focus on your strengths

When you need guidance
I will help show you the way

When you are scared
I will be your protector

When you are down
I will be there to raise your spirits

When you are lost
I’ll be a compass to guide you

When you are sad
I’ll be your shoulder to cry on

No matter what life throws your way
I’ll be here anytime of day
She Writes Jul 2018
I’m scared you’re going to be
The one who finally breaks me
My trust you betrayed
Cut my heart with your blade

I cannot take much more hurt
My brain is on high alert
I have to protect the pieces of my fragile heart
I’ve told you this from the start

I don’t understand why you hurt me still
You knew I’d do anything at your will
I never expected you to play games
I believed every one of your claims

I want to trust you
To know everything as true
I’ve never felt so afraid
These feelings I’m trying to evade

I love you more than I should
It’s bad for my livelihood
I am trying to forgive
But I’m running out of trust to give
She Writes May 2023
She was scattered, shattered, a soul in disarray
Every heartbreak chipped a piece of her away
She became hollow, an empty shell
A shadow of the body she used to dwell

He strolled into her life with his kind and gentle touch
Pieced her back together, made her feel a rush
Showed her she is worthy of love and affection
Helped her rebuild with care and perfection

Now she is under construction, but it is different this time
She's not fixing what was broken, instead building a new paradigm
A relationship built on trust, mutual respect, and devotion
Love that strengthens and grows with each passing emotion
She Writes Aug 2018
It is quite painful
To bury an untold story
It scratches and claws the mind
You must bite your tongue
Clench your teeth
To keep the secrets from escaping
She Writes Jun 2018
I am done trying to prove my worth
To those unworthy of me
She Writes May 2018
My thoughts are chaotic
The words on my mind
Are too big for my mouth
Instead they flow through my veins
Ink spilling over this paper
Like blood on a marble floor
I
She Writes May 2023
Anxiety gripping my mind like a vice
Trapped in my own head; paralyze

Paranoia creeping in like a slow rolling fog
Unable to control my inner monologue

Panic strikes without warning
Drowning in my own mourning

Heart racing, shallow breath
Wondering if this is death
She Writes Aug 2022
Open or closed
My eyes only see you
I am convinced
It is the best **** view
She Writes Apr 2018
They asked me not to tell my story,
it would cause others too much pain.
They were so afraid of my voice,
That i learned to fear it too.
It wasn’t until I found writing,
That I realized just how powerful my voice is.
She Writes Jan 2019
Look into my soul
You’ll see walls a mile high
Unreachable and safe
Confined and alone
She Writes Jul 2022
A withering flower will continue to bloom
Tilt its drooping face toward the sun
If only you'd water it and love it tender

Humans are no different; they long to grow
Their head may hang low; leaves may be wilted
If only you'd water and love them tender
She Writes Nov 2017
I consider reaching out to you
Wondering if I should
I must step back and remind myself
If you wanted to speak you would

I’m no longer a priority
The realization is painful
With my heart
I should have been more careful

She Writes Jul 2022
How can I give you what you need
when you have yet to discover it yourself?
She Writes Mar 2018
She longs for nights filled with sparks
lust and pleasure
Whiskey lips and naked kisses
Bodies close together
She Writes Oct 2018
Am I a fool to believe
The ease with which you lie
To those you hold most dear
Would not also pertain to me?
She Writes Aug 2018
I lost myself trying to become
Everything you wanted me to be
Now you are gone
and I am finally free

But who am I?
I don’t know
I’ve lost your directions
Unsure of where to go

The future is uncertain
I fear the unknown
How will I fare
In the world all alone?

I will slowly transform
Become the real me
The one that I
Was always meant to be
She Writes Apr 2018
The winters feel colder
When they are spent alone
She Writes Aug 2018
And tonight I’ll find myself
Wrapped in loneliness
Instead of your arms
She Writes Aug 2018
My mind is full
Yet my page is empty

She Writes May 2018
I know it hurts now
But wipe your tears
And face your fears
The best is yet to come
She Writes Dec 2017
Always remember:
You are a diamond
Even when you are treated
Like a rhinestone

If the one you pine after
Doesn’t see that
Than they are not worthy
Of your time or affection
Not so much a poem as a quote I suppose, but worth sharing all the same
She Writes Nov 2017
You are the poem I could never bear to write.
She Writes Nov 2017
I promised myself
I’d never let you complete me
But here I am almost whole
Oh what a tragedy

When you leave
I will be empty and lost
Broken, just like you found me
Begging you to stay at any cost
She Writes Jun 2018
You didn’t know how to love me
The way I needed to be loved
You didn’t know how to hold me
And show me I was enough
She Writes Nov 2017
Just because you’ve undressed her
Does not mean you’ve seen her naked

Do you know her past?

Just because you’ve touched her skin
Does not mean you’ve touched her heart

Do you know her secrets?

Just because you’ve been inside her body
Does not mean you’ve been inside her soul

Do you know her dreams?
She Writes Nov 2017
You lied when you said
You’d love me no matter
The thoughts in my head
The reality is sadder

You’re never there
When I need you the most
Less you could care
I live with a ghost

I’m at fault too
You’re Not the only to blame
I have a secret or two
You and I are one in the same

You’re a liar and I’m a cheat
At least we know where each other sleeps
She Writes Nov 2017
You lit a fire in my soul
Then you put me out
Nothing and no one
Will be able to rekindle that flame
She Writes Jun 2018
Someday you will miss me
And when you do you’ll realize
You only have yourself to blame
For pushing me away
I hope that blame
Causes you as much pain
As you caused me
When you left me behind
Goodbye Friend
She Writes Nov 2017
You make:

My hands shake
My ground quake
My heart break
My head ache
My tears lake
My brain wake
She Writes Sep 2018
All I ever wanted was for us to stay
Just the way we were
Lying under the stars
When we were young and in love
She Writes Jul 2018
I cannot find the right words
To describe the way it feels
To be wrapped up in your arms
Soft breaths on my neck
Nails scratching your back
I cannot explain it
But in your arms I am home
And I know I am where I belong
She Writes Nov 2017
I love the sound of your breathing
Perhaps it’s just the rhythm
That I find so soothing
Perhaps it’s just your presence

When I wake from a fright
And hear your breath
I can fall asleep without fight
You’re my safety blanket
She Writes Oct 2018
To you I will turn
Like a flower to the sun
Soaking up your light
Until my darkness is none
She Writes Dec 2019
There are thousands of ways
I said I love you
And you never heard me say
A single one

There are thousands of ways
I could say I miss you
And you'll never hear me say
A single one
