Wounds weep, there's no balm.
Your tears fall louder than pain's calm.
Afraid? No, just worried.
Anxious, anxious—
Ekneirbrucnaowdey—
thoughts slipping, tripping, fading to gray,
Where even the stars despair to find their way.

One, two, three—the stars fall,
Amidst the golden light's sinking stall.
Void, empty, it is,
With no sun to guide which planet to which.
Adrea May 29
The stars have stood for ages, immovably above,
and gazed at each other with yearning, woeful love.

Yet we enact a tale of love beneath their gaze,
our hearts a symphony of jouissance, in each other's embrace.

Gazing into your caring eyes,
Time sure flies, an evanescent prize.
An aura born of selfless care,
yet in your heart lie limits, there.

In silence, at misery you smile,
rising only, when worthwhile.
I see the strength and grace you display,
making troubles seem child's play.

Two trees, growing side by side,
Surviving through time's tide.
Though deep within, a traitor lies,
you remain true to yourself, no matter the disguise.

A saint of lighting, thriving in the dark,
A ray of knowledge, a guiding spark.

Like dandelions in the air,
You rise toward a future fair—
A world none yet can live without,
But all will dream of, there's no doubt.

And then she smiled,
And that's what I chase—
The joy in her eyes,
The warmth in her face.

I saw it too late,
My thoughts slipped astray,
Replaced by a love,
That time took away.

Walking down the lane, I saw—
A withered stem, struggling to grow.
Amidst the dust, I took it,
And gave it to a child, as I deemed fit.

It's been weeks since that normal day.
I went out and heard them say,
A fragrant flower has bloomed.
I followed and found what loomed.

The stem I'd found, now grew with dignity,
It found its place and a gardener,
Who nurtured it with benignity.
Through storms and wind, it now stood brave,
No longer in future would it now fall or cave.
Adrea Feb 17
I would have
Her memories rather,
For all I gave
Was only a bother.

Dreams are sweet,
Adorned with my hope.
My heart keeps its beat,
With love that cannot cope.

Till time, it lasts.
Sculpting, sculpting, don't do it fast.
Infernal fire burning sins,
May it happen, where all but one begins.
Adrea Feb 6
A sunset or the moon,
a momentary reunion,
meant to be soon;
though destined to separation,
they wait fervently for another chance,
of the sundry,
eternally to dance.
Adrea May 19
I held the seashells,
sang the songs,
let the waves pull me in,
pretending I belonged.

But the tide went out,
and so did I,
footsteps fading,
hidden in the sand.
Adrea May 19
I struggle to trust.
(Some people feel like home.)

I can't open up to you.
(I still want the best for you.)

I'm soft-spoken, and not easily heard.
(Quiet doesn't always mean distant.)

I find it hard to express emotions.
(It's visible in the eyes.)

I get lost in my thoughts.
(I always find my way to you.)

I don't like a lot of things.
(I'll still like everything you like.)

I don't know or have a lot.
(I still want to learn all about you.)

I am moody.
(Moods may change, but nature won't.)
Adrea Feb 16
I love my eyes.
They are very strong,
And don’t tell lies.
They have this secret song
That keeps them glimmering all day long.
Even when I may fall apart,
They still shine bright, as if waiting for a brand-new start.
Adrea May 19
What is a star?
A star is that which shines in the darkest sky,
guiding the miserable wretches that pass by.

Stars whisper to travellers in the midst of the silent night,
showing endless dreams upon flicking into sight.

Stars in the sky, timeless gleams,
flowing perpetually amidst love's streams.

What is a star?
It is a dream I'll never attain,
that much I do ascertain.

It leads me at my darkest
moments, with its zest.
A cluster of love, forever near,
yet something unreachable, I fear.
Adrea Jun 21
I mapped the stars,
named each light,
built a world
from a wish too bright.

But the sky turned grey,
and time moved on,
my perfect paths
already gone.
Adrea Jun 23
I saw you there,
and followed true.
No other thoughts here,
just steps to you.

Your joy stayed,
but not your hand.
We woke apart,
in separate lands.

Always judged, yet now I stand to judge,
not to scale your beauty, nor your grace,
but to appraise your heart, and such.
An angel's guise to ward off evil's face.

In benevolence, with its might, it uglifies,
to shield from harm, to halt the cries.

Avidly burned the longing for beauty's light,
for the devil dons allure to deceive the right.

Tarrying for the sight of arrival
sanguine still, despite deprival.

Ward off the darkness, be my guide,
Be my angel, in you my hopes lied.

Light my world, be my savior.
Be my alchemist; I am in dire.

For nights, endlessly I had nurtured, a flower that could never grow—
A seed descent of bloom rotting, falling slow.
It wasn't the fault of the water or the air—so they say;
The fault lay with the gardener, who trusted the wrong seed that day.
Adrea Dec 2024
Since the first day, you carved your place,
an ineffaceable mark, a gentle trace.
In my heart, you became someone,
not a dream, but a love outdone.

You became someone--my guiding light,
through darkest hours, through endless night.
Not perfect, no, but human true—
the you I need, forever, you.

Day by day, I searched for your face,
in others, in moments, in every place.
Your words spun like whispers in the air, anew,
“You’ll find me,” you said, “I’ll wait for you.”

Two paths diverged at a juncture,
Should I chase you, or wait for you?
Shadows of something cloud my mind, a future,
where we are together as one, as in two.

Five signs I’ve seen, too clear to ignore.
A month gone by, yet I feel you more.
I stand at the crossroads, scared, and lost.
If I betray them, I betray my lore,
but if I betray you, I betray my cost.

The world has nothing, my heart bleeds,
for the you I need, the love it feeds.
So, come to me, death, my dearest life,
the you I need to end this lasting strife.
Adrea Feb 15
Ever lonely in this universe, I think—
Think, think, think—
What am I? What is there to life’s embrace?
A question always unanswered to my nameless face.

Ever inquisitive in this universe, I am lost—
Lost, lost, lost—
What is the purpose of my existence confined?
A soul tethered, a rationale undefined.
Sometimes, these thoughts are suffocating.
Adrea Feb 6
Day by day,
I forget more and more,
Memories I adore,
Leads me astray.

— The End —
