Dance in the rain
Phia Sep 2016
I needed a little rain
So that I could dance,
But now I'm drowning in it.

Thoughts on Racism
Phia Aug 2016
So where are you from?
The teacher asked me,
No greeting,
Nothing.
Just those five words.
As I stared blankly, shocked.
Are you Korean or Japanese?
Do you speak chinese?
You must be really good at math.
It's majority rules not minority rules.
Go back to where you came from.

I am from china.
I do not speak the language.
I ******* **** at math,
I was adopted.
And Im right where I'm supposed
To be.
I face these things everyday. Racism hurts. This "poem" doesn't begin to describe it. Be careful of the words you use.
Phia May 2017
What happened to the little girl
The one who dreamed of fairytales
What happened to the little girl
Who played make believe
Who wanted to grow up to be an
Astronaut?
What happened to the little girl
Who thought the world to be a magical place
Who dreamed of reaching the stars and keeping
Them in a jar to light her way
Who dreamed of prince charming on white horses
Well she now lies in bed with tears streaming down her face
Begging to die.
She now paints pictures on her skin with a metal paintbrush
She's more broken than she is beautiful.
She no longer dreams of stars and fairytales
Now her only happily ever after is

Death
Sorry I'm a wee bit rusty with my poetry.

Eggshells
Phia Aug 2016
Will my feet ever touch solid ground?
Or will I be walking on eggshells
For the rest of my life.

Our little infinity

And in those moments,
However fleeting,
I thought we would make it;
I thought we were infinite
I miss you

If i had a dollar

If I had a dollar
For all the times I
Cried myself to sleep
This month.
I'd buy a movie ticket
To the movie we were
Supposed to see together.

Song bird

That sad moment
When a song bird
Loses her voice.
I love to sing. But lately I've had no desire to.

The way I feel
Phia Jul 2024
I hate that I’m not stronger
I hate that I’m so scared
I hate the control that you still have
I hate that I still care
I hate that I can’t cut you off
That my lips can’t say goodbye
I hate that you still make me laugh
I hate that you still make me cry.
I hate that the only time I write
Is when I’m writing about you
That after everything that’s happened
Your love is still my muse.  
I hate the fact that I still love you
Even if it’s not the same
I hate that we’re in this ******* mess
And I’m the one to blame.
But mostly I wish I hated you
As much as I hate me
Cause maybe then I would be happier
Maybe then I’d finally feel free.

The gifts you gave

You gave him entire galaxies
But in his mind
All he saw was a single planet.

Gasoline

He was like fire
And she was like gasoline.
He consumed her only to make himself
Stronger.

Lonely places
Phia Sep 2016
As I walk these crowded halls
getting lost in the sea of people around me,
You are gone
and I have never felt so lonely.
Jack is gone, I have never felt more alone. I feel like a part of me is missing.

House of cards
Phia Aug 2016
And it's been proven once again
That this house of cards
Was not meant to stand
I ******* destroyed everything

Not alone

And it was then,
talking to you,
tears streaming down my face,
that I realized maybe I'm not completely
alone.

Thousands of pieces would be

Life Raft

when it becomes too hard to swim.

What will happen?
Phia Aug 2016
So tell me,
Where are we going this time?
Are we both going to fall?
Be madly in love?
Or are you going to be
Just another person
Passing by
With no intention to stay?
391 · Oct 2016
Lovely.

You shine brighter than all the stars that I've seen
Believe me when I say that you're lovely.

Ask

Ask for a word I'll write you a poem.

Rain

Sometimes even the strongest things
Need to let things go.

In my 17 years

In 17 years of mistakes
And regrets,
Wrong turns and
Bad decisions,
You are the first thing
To feel right.

Break me
Phia Sep 2016
With each passing day,
You slip a little further away from me.
So as I sit here in the nights alone,
I do everything I can
To keep you in my mind
Because losing you would not only
Break my heart,
It would break me.

Untitled 13
Phia Sep 2016
There are days when it will be hard,
Getting out of bed will seem impossible,
Breathing will seem like a battle,
You'll want to just curl up and die.
On those days, you must remember
How far you've come.
How much further you have to go,
And all of the people that will love you
In between
368 · Oct 2016
Falling for you.
Phia Oct 2016
Somebody help me 'cause I cannot breathe
falling for you knocked the wind out of me.

Whatever it takes
Phia Jul 2016
You were one of the best things,
And I ****** it up.
So I'll numb my mind,
With whatever it takes.
Even if it kills me.

Some nights
Phia Sep 2016
Some nights I'll need you
To hold me a little tighter.
For those are the nights that
My world shakes, and I might
Break apart.

Some nights you'll need me
To hold you a little tighter,
And I may not be very strong,
But on those nights,
I will hold you like you are the only thing
I have to hold on to.

Thoughts

Why do we expect love to make us whole
When more often than not
It leaves us more broken than before
356 · Jul 2016
How you take breath away
Phia Jul 2016
How do I start
What do I say
To explain how you
Take my breath away?
Do I start with your smile?
The way it lights up your eyes
And how that alone turns stormy weather
Into clear blue skies.
I really love it when we talk
And you say always
I don't know why but hearing it
Always makes my day
Do I tell you how I love it,
The way you always seem to care
And how it feels like no matter what
You will be there
I love the way you see through me
And you don't let me be alone
But it's hard because I don't know what to do
Since loneliness is all I've ever known
I love how you don't believe me
When I say that I'm okay
And no matter how hard I push
You don't seem to stay away
You make me feel like I matter
And when I'm with you I can be me
You put up with my stubbornness
And all my insecurities
You remind me what butterflies feel like
And what it's like to believe
That maybe, just maybe
Fairytale can exist for a girl like me.
I wrote this for my friend. Soon I'm hoping we will be more than friends
354 · Jul 2016
I will pray
Phia Jul 2016
I am not a religious person.
But tonight I will pray
To anyone who may care.
Tonight when I go to sleep,
I will pray for a better tomorrow.
I will pray for the escape that sleep
Is supposed to bring.
Not the nightmares which haunt me.
I will pray for the safety and happiness
Of the ones I love.
I will pray for the strength
Which I cannot find,
And a reason to keep getting up
In the morning.
But mostly I will pray
For forgiveness from the one I truly
Care about.
I will pray to keep him in my life.
I would do anything
To keep him in my life.
352 · Oct 2024
I love you
Phia Oct 2024
When I say "I love you"
what I meant was,
I have never felt so at home
anywhere
or with anyone.
My mind,
my soul,
my heart,
has never felt such peace.
sorry i'm word dumping. Also I hate titles.

Memory Hiccup
Phia May 2016
The other day
my mind had a hiccup
Memories of you
flashed before my eyes
And then vanished.
Barely there
But noticeable enough
To make my heart ache.
It's bad, right now I'm just trying to write
350 · Jul 2016
We've faded away
Phia Jul 2016
Now we've faded away
Into yesterday's
Fairytales.
But I know the reality
You'll be just fine without me.
While I spend my days getting
Wasted.
Something I'm working on for a new song. Let me know what you think!!!

But goodbye poems on
A website called
HELLO Poetry.

A fight
Phia May 2016
No this isn't what I pictured
When I talked to you last night
But it seems that I've lost everything
Because one single stupid fight.
Too many things were left unspoken
To many questions Floating in the air
Now there's so much damage
I don't think it can be repaired
Since then the clouds have rolled over
And with them comes the rain
And I'm hopeful that when it cleanses the earth
It will also cleanse me of my pain
And the rain may cleanse me of the blood
But the stab marks are still there
You took a knife to my chest
And you didn't even care
But I guess it's not only your fault
It is mine too
I knew in my head how this would end
I just hoped it wasn't true

10 things i love about you
Phia Aug 2016
There are so many things
That I love about you
It will take too long to name them all
So I'll name just a few.
The first thing I love about you
Is the way you smile
It makes me feel at peace and such
I haven't felt that for a while.
The second thing that I love
Is the way you're always there
I can text you about the dumbest things
Like how I cut my hair.
The third thing that I love about you
Is that you make me feel strong
When I talk to you the endless nights
Never seem as long.
The fourth thing that I love about you
Is the way you say oh my
I don't know why but seeing that
Makes me want to fly.
The fifth thing that I love about you
Is the way you hold me in your arms
When you wrap them tight around me
I feel protected from all harm
The sixth thing that I love about you
Are the faces that you make
I'll do anything to see them again
I don't care what it takes.
The seventh thing I love about you
Is that you're gentle but you're strong
My life is a raging storm
But with you it seems calm.
The eighth thing I love about you
Is that you're really funny
You may not know it but you always
Make my days nice and sunny.
The ninth thing o love about you
Is that you never go away
But don't feel like you're stuck here
You're free to leave or stay.
The tenth thing that I love about you
Is I don't feel so alone
You gave me hope when I lost it all
That my heart can find a home.
That's ten things that I love about you,
But there are many more,
You don't have to do this alone
Of this I am sure.
For you
