I guess it turns out
I don't miss him.
I miss being in love

He is my polar opposite.
I know love made me blind,
But I'm not saying I actually wanted to see

Before him there was one guy
(He turns out to be a player
But I ****** That Up
So soon
I never had a chance to find out )
I guess his haunted past was attractive
(I still don't understand
How you can be
A passionate player...)

Okay so Polar Opposite and I went on
(Not that I knew what I was doing)
And I learned a lot
Like who I am.

The only problem is
(And I'm not pretending)
I'm not normal.

I have an extreme case of the Not-Normals!

I love who I am but he didn't
So after 18 months
I ended it.

No one ever told me that would be traumatic
(I really should have believed the poetry, right?)

So that leaves me with
• 1 problem
• 1 more story segment

Then I need some help deciding some things
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
I forgot to mention
(derogative laughter sounds in my head)
Up until now
How everyone would smile and ask us to kiss
Polar Opposite and I
How they looked at us as a team
We were inseparable
(I guess that wasn't true, was it?)
They called us Romeo and Juliet
behind our backs
(I just learned this, after 25 months)

Now I am seen as a broken part
By all the male eyes
And every time someone finds out
That what we had is "over"
(I don't know what over means anymore)
I can tell they mourn right along with me
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
So after Polar Opposite
I mourned (still am)
And crushed
(Still am)
And had a fling with another guy
(Learned my lesson)

I lost a few friends
And met some new people
And Polar Opposite gave up chasing me
(Don't get me wrong almost all the poem on here
Are about him)

And realized I have a problem
(I got lots of those actually {That was a joke, you're supposed to laugh})

Should I keep my secret of who I am?
So that no one will hate me
Or fear me
Or judge me
So I can be safe?

Or let it all be open
And give up my alluring mystery
And my "friends"
And doom every relationship I ever have

I am so tempted to tell you
Dear reader
Because I will never have to face you in person
And I always feel loved
In your comforting ranks.
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
I feel
A bit
Narcissistic
Right now
But I'll go on
Anyways
I'm so over
Thinking of Polar
And playing these stupid games
It's too bad for him
But he needs to see
I'm living a life
And I need to be free
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
Lust
Can never
Replace love
Because every word
I write
Is love
And lust
Is just
The period**.

------
It means nothing because it is only a group of letters
                        It means something because a name names a real thing
            It means permanent because we don't name what will soon go away
It is the number 6
It is graphite on a plain white backdrop
It represents all my memories,
                           Every night I swim through
                                           Every day I face
It represents recollections of people
                        Whose names fill those memories
            Represented by their own names and their own sets of memories
People who are teaching me freedom and trust
Like when I let Polar Opposite have my heart
                       And KRD have my secrets
                                          To keep
It means I am a person of memories
                         But it is also whatever you dream of when you hear it
Wrote this in creative writing class, enjoy
Sydney Ann Feb 2015
My new favorite letter is M
Because it's your letter
I'll add in A,
Maybe even J
because those are yours too
I love them
                                   Why?                                                  
They remind me of you
I love you
Always.
Sorry they pressure you
To  ask to be my Valentine
I wish you had said yes
So I could hear it from your lips
But you didn't,
your discomfort shows
that this matters to you.
I Think.
Good enough for me.
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
My heart is full of cyanide
My soul is made to run and hide

                                                           My soul is made of arsenic
                                                          
                                                           His presence really makes me sick
My body takes him like it takes crack
I'm done with him and that's the fact
                                                                                   You say I'm like your     Anti-freeze
But so much of you, and I can't breathe.
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
I ascend
Towards the top
adding to this bitter drop

My skin is smudged
With dirt and dust
But this abuse is not unjust

The branches twist
Love to assist
The girl who lives inside the mist

First is gallant
Next is weak
Always knowing what she seeks

-Who am I?-
-You'll never know-
A changing pain that never shows

Skin is hot
Eyes will chill
A murderous tree not meant to ****

It's here for weeping
Broken dreams
Embracing those
Who sit unseen

Out of time
And running out of breath
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
I'm sorry that I broke your heart
And tore it up
Said I would restart

I'm sorry that I made you cry
(you tried so hard to hide that detail)
And I probably made you want to die
I feel like we've lost our minds
And that true love had made us blind
I do not deserve forgiveness
For my secrets and my lies
I deserve the shame I carry
In my heart and on my body

I made your feelings turn to darkness
Made you want to shut your eyes

I want you to know I'm sorry
Hurting you's a ****** hobby

All I want to know today
Is if your heart will be okay
If I give up on everything else
I hope that you can be yourself
The you you were before you broke
Your personality up in smoke
I wish this wasn't like some sick joke.
If only he could read this. Sadly he  never took much of an interest in my poetry.

What I'd really like to do right now is kiss you really intensely
With a lot of feeling
Drops of emotion will condense like dew on your skin, iridescent magenta
Maybe every kiss will seep into you and radiate pink, until we're both glowing
Maybe you'll get goosebumps even though my hands are warm and I'll trace love letters across your skin
We'll blend together until you can't tell where you end and I begin, for a split second, we'll have the same sighs, the same laughs, the same eyes that see the same things
Something otherworldly, I feel otherworldly sometimes when I'm with you
You sometimes break the world when I'm with you, so we exist is some other place
Some other world that can handle the gravity of your kisses

                              To have a life
**And truly live
Happy Holidays everyone!!!

It physically pains me
To see you bleed

On the inside.

Thoughts of your aura
I can't escape

I don't want to

No, ironically all I want
Is to be close to you

Never mind the physical stuff

I just want to be near you
I want you to let me in

I know I sound fickle
When you consider my past
But please know

I love you
You.

You are so perfect.

I just want to help
You
Survive

I know it's a bad time
To ask for things

Like dating

That seem stupid
But I understand.

I can help

If you'd just let me in
Stop walking away
*I love you.
The loneliness at night is unbearable.
Sydney Ann May 2015
because
it hurts so much,
but I don't feel anything.
The tears don't come
even as I beg them
Sydney Ann May 2015
When will my work be noteworthy?
Noteworthy... Oh honey please,
spare me the *******
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
Why should I tell you my secrets
Why should I impart you with dreams
                    You don't give a ****
                      Unless I throw a fit
And even then
You never remember.
Pardon my French
Sydney Ann Jan 2015
I don't want to be human anymore.
I don't want to be part of the
Hate
Cruelty
Selfish need for attention
The imperfection of the human mind.

The worst part now days
Is seeing myself do these things
Commit these crimes
I feel their hurt.
Seeing myself be a human
And not even being able to stop it
The only reason I exist
Is to make up for the faults
Yet I just can't seem to stop being
Everything I hate
Sydney Ann Oct 2016
Yeah sure
But some day we'll realize how different we are
Some day you'll be on top of some other girl, you don't know it yet
But I do.

She'll be like you, and better for you, and you'll be better for her
It'll be simple and easy and you'll spend the rest of your lives together

Sure, every once in a while you'll lie awake, missing my mystery and the beauty that darkness creates
You'll know that this new girl will never know you like I knew you
You don't know this yet honey, but I do
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
Once upon a time of darkness
I came upon my greatest fear
It thickened
And twirled through
It made me stiff
As I grew near
I freeze,
I don't know what to do
I just hope I'll make it through*

It haunts me as I walk through life
This fear it cuts me
Sharp as knives

We're vulnerable to this lethal fear
But if you challenge
If you fight
This fear can no longer
Rule the night
Sydney Ann Mar 2016
3:00 meows are rude
Go the **** to sleep
Sydney Ann Sep 2015
Dress to impress
My face does the rest
Walking with silence
That comes off quite violent
in my own mind
Swept up with their childish
But not truly innocence
Losing my sense
And grip on the world
Let them imagine I'm still just a girl
Let me tell you my world
Isn't a thing you'd imagine
Sydney Ann Nov 2016
I am the painting, but if he thinks he has all the brushes he is mistaken
I feel him shifting
Paint strokes drifting
little does he know
but I'll never dare tell him I am letting go.
I prepare myself for what drifts on the horizon
The salty wind                 blowing                 through blue skies, and
and god,
I feel ourselves sliding so askew
Here I go, painting myself anew.
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
What is the world
When you look
With no eyes?
Sydney Ann Mar 2015
The struggle
is putting words into
groups that
sound right flow
nicely picking
the right words and
putting soul into
it that's how you win
hearts
Sydney Ann Nov 2015
Dreams of life outside the confines
Little Wisps of hope swirl angry
My world is books and worlds and minds
When souls do starve, minds are hungry.
Intresting
Sydney Ann Mar 2015
I don't know what's real anymore
The open margins leave me slightly
agoraphobic
I think it's okay for me to not care
I have a lot of moods
I don't know anyone who understands completely
these abilities
will surely cause the loneliness
to **** me
I'm afraid
I need to get it together
trust
believe
confidence
love.
Sydney Ann Jan 2015
It is not this onion I wish to *****
But your heart and mind I wish to stick
You'll think of me night and day
Until with words you arrive and say
"I love you"
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
If I lay here
                                   If I just Lay Here
Would you lie with me
                                                            And

Poetry is the
***** napkin we use to
Wipe moods from our hearts
Sydney Ann Sep 2015
I'm so tired of being the odd one out
left politely out of the loop
Sure I feel bad about my ignorance
but Jesus you should have told me
Wouldn't have ****** up if you'd have told me

You act like it's such a big thing when I get it wrong
but I get ignored by you all anyways
My own heart is my best company
lucky me
and I guess you'll never know the loop I've left you out of
Take that
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
I am captured
So are you
If we give in our secret's through
I have to choose

Help myself and ditch the stress
Yet betraying you can't be the best

Or hold my silence
Never speak
Trust in you, for you're not weak
We'll keep our secret safe inside
We'll be alone
Hardly alive
Living in a faraway land
Knowing our unspoken plan
And if our bond is strong and true
The secret's kept with me and you
Sydney Ann Jan 2015
Yea, sure
I put on a smile when you see me
I laugh
I'm nice
I'm average,

But, you see,
There are two sides to every coin
And just because
I choose to show
The Puppy Tail side
Doesn't mean the
Dismembered Head side
Isn't alive and kickin'
**Right
         Underneath
                              The surface
Sydney Ann Dec 2016
You hit a point where you start running
Sprinting as fast as you can
Never looking back
Until you're tired I guess
Until I'm tired and I sit and watch the past
Running over the horizon
Getting closer
I wait in terror
Until soon it is close and I want to go back
Back to the things I used to know
The past gets close enough I can smell its breath
But I cannot quite reach it.
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
Rainy rainy wet
Splashing through the mud
Feeling bold
My feet are cold
A muddy fate is set
Sydney Ann Nov 2014
The soggy smell
Is in the air
The clouds
Are cut by sun
All the trees
Are vivid green
And worms
Are on the run
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
... If no one listens

... If, when they do, they don't understand

... If you're a loner

... If you like it that way

... If you're special

... If you're different...

STAY THAT WAY
I  Love You Just How You Are

... All You Secret Souls Out There
If you walk in through the out door, yeah
Sydney Ann Mar 2016
He says things that sound iconic
Not that I would ever share
Some say love is so dishonest
But hearts can mend where liars tear.
Sydney Ann Feb 2015
Writer's block has clogged my mental pores
Oily ignorance I cannot ignore
Technology is fogging up my mind
Leaving me no time to unwind

I looked in the mirror today
And guess what I saw

My ugly, stunted imagination's face
Full of gross digital zits
I'm really starting to miss
My former wit
I've got to get out of this keyboard-y place
Sydney Ann Mar 2016
My poetry is ****
I apologize to you
Sydney Ann May 2015
Do it quickly,
God forgive me
Her eyes drifted dreamily
His teeth worked against her neck

Lord of the flies, favor me now
... had already pooled in it, something viscid and alive
I am the resurrection of death
He's undead, Ben
We must go through bitter to taste the sweet
blood.

Now your end.
LET ME GOOOOOOO----
and the blood that pulsed from his chest turned black

Look out!
You killed the master!
I'll be back
They were in the streets, the walking dead
They go crazy on the inside.
Sydney Ann Jan 2015
Covered in scratches
Covered in scrapes
Drowning in wounds
That eternally ache
Sydney Ann Mar 2015
he never lets
anyone in

and probably
never will

he keeps it locked
away inside

so good at secrets
no one is even suspicious
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
It's funny
How much we revere
Weaknesses
--But only the right ones--

We listen so intently
When peers speak of pain,
But how is Cutting or Drugs,
Heartbreak or Anxiety

Any better than that girl who
Doesn't even have a full two ears?

Sure you say you can love
But ask yourself
Is your love selfish as your peers?

Yea I see you turn away from that boy
Did you ever think maybe
He might be worth a conversation or two?


Well I'll let you in
On a little secret

This world is ugly
Ignoring it doesn't make it go away
And choosing what to see
Just makes it worse

Sometimes I really wonder:
Would you still love me
If you knew of my Femoral Anteversion?
**Or would my crooked leg
Be all you could see?
Sydney Ann Jan 2015
Some one should have told me not to go this far.
At the first stages of this obsession, It was just the same
Just the same as any pre-teen curiosity
I was a curious little one, I suppose.

But as usual, I have to work for what I want,
Nothing ever comes easy
But I suppose I like it that way
Or I did

I wanted this
Wanted it so badly
Just like any other human
I wanted to be special
How disgustingly selfish

I wanted the titles
The magic
"Witch,
Psychic,
Magic,
Medium"

I read the books
I tried and tried
And then I fell in love

I guess that was the key
I got what I wanted
Now all I have to do is protect it.

But no kid should have to suffer through this
Cry at night because the world is so pointless
Hate being human so much


I never thought
That all I would long for
Is to be selfless  
To love unconditionally

No matter how hard I fight
I will always be
A selfish
                  Hateful
                              ­  Lusting
                                               Malicious
                                                       ­         Worthless
                                              ­                                     Pointless human
Just like everyone
Living life for their own satisfaction
Nothing else


I hate myself.
I want to stop existing.
I want to go back to blissful ignorance.


I am so ashamed
I should have known
I cannot control human nature

I am so ashamed
That I am so weak
I can't control my desire to be special
Or my "dark side"
Or admit that that dark side is just a figment
*So people will pay attention to me.
Thank you so much if you read the whole thing. I feel better that I got this off my chest. If you're thinking of reaching higher psychic awareness, I wish you the best of luck and know you have my love <3
Sydney Ann Dec 2014
Fluffy fluffy flakes
Falling to the ground
The air is cold
The wind is bold
There's silence all around
I'm not ready for winter!
Sydney Ann Mar 2015
because I didn't understand
what you think but I do understand
at the same time
it's frustrating you see
I love you
you make me feel like an idiot
I don't understand I'm lost I need an anchor
I don't want to cause any pain I'm sorry if I hurt you.
Sydney Ann Aug 2015
Is it wrong that I interrupted her? My own mother.
She was telling me science,
what we consider the truth...
But I am already too fragile when it comes to that.
Without the magic
I ceaselessly pretend to see in the world it is nothing
pointless, really.
I made a decision, mom,
one a long time ago
when I had to be there for myself
when The Truth in my heart
was different from the truth in everyone else's head
I chose my heart,

I chose a life of mockery and being called a child, even by you.
I told you I didn't care if that was the truth, that I wanted it to be real so that makes is real enough to me

and you pulled over and made me sit in the back seat
Just because I didn't want the laws of your world to tear apart mine **again
I don't even know who I am anymore
