Him…
Viany Aug 2021
He says..
I know what I bring
To the table..
& I’m able to make
It stable
I understand
& I plan
To follow
His lead
Wherever he takes me
But we’re friends though..
Feelings kept on the low
Emotions stay on the go
If he only knew
I’m always on
Bended knees
Asking God
Please send him
Back to me..
I know what I bring
To the table…
For I’m able..
Forget all the fables
I’m a woman
Of substance
Never lacking
The abstance of
Grace…
This is not a faze
Everyday he will be
Amazed by not only
The softness of
My embrace
But my capability to
Pray him out
Of a somber day
& protect him from
Ever feeling the shame
Yet always push him
To be great for the
Creator himself said..
For he who finds a wife..
Finds a good thing..
Low & behold,
I am she, who he decided to bring..
but we’re friends though..
Get to know me..
How can I say no?

Sunrise
Viany May 2021
He pierced his eyes in the windows of my soul
But I didn’t look away..stuck in his gaze—
He smiled & the sun arose..

Purple
Viany May 2021
I heard purple is the color of divinity...I see it now. I see purple when I close my eyes
I see divinity when I pray,
I see divinity when I meditate
Being a hopeless romantic, it’s easy to get lost in his gaze
Divinely connected—even when I say I’m leaving I want to stay..
I long for his embrace, wrapped my legs around him as he ****** me in a daze  
Is it still sin if he takes me away to a higher place?
My divinity.. yet brings me to insanity when I can’t understand his ways
God have mercy & send your grace
For it’s hard for me to leave
& I hope I’m not being deceived
For everytime I hear his voice..it makes me weak..
My divinity..a little chaotic yet brings tranquility..

Mirror
Viany May 2021
I came to the conclusion that I attract broken pieces of myself...
Sep 2020 · 153
The truth is...
Viany Sep 2020
My love never faded..
It was just inhaled &
Remained suppressed...

For at times you give up...

Especially when the one that you want
Lacks the maturity or ability
To reciprocate the same emotions
You exhaled in their direction..

Dose of your own medicine

It’s always “you’re acting different” when you finally decide to treat people as they treat you..

A Challenge
Viany Jul 2020
Learn how to say no, without giving a reason...
Jul 2020 · 258
You are enough
Viany Jul 2020
In a world full of
Fake *****
Fake lips  
Fake hair
Fake ****
Fake this & fake that

& you’re looking at yourself...
Raw & uncut...

Keep looking...
Keep looking at the beauty
That’s deeper than skin deep..

For you are enough
You are beautiful

Lies exposed
Truth unveiled
A year of Clarity...
Clarity is what we needed
To survive...
To grow
To change

My vision is clear

How?
Viany Nov 2019
I’ve stripped you naked,
yet you’re still clothed with lies.
Layers upon layers...

My Son
Viany Nov 2019
My bones broke in many pieces to bring you into this chaotic world
When I look at you, everything makes sense...I am whole.  
My son.
I asked for unconditional love & God gave me you.
Your eyes are brighter than the rhinestones that I used to steal from my mother
I gave them all back to her you know...
For I found a greater treasure of my own
I never understood the cliche...
Of giving birth, or having a baby of your own is a love that’s unexplainable

But it’s true..
No greater love can compare to this...
Seeing your heart in human form

Your love out of me

Viany Mar 2018
I smell spring around the corner...but here you are with your winter chillls that leaves me numb..I’m so tired of feeling nothing..when all I crave is warmth. When’s my next season of love?

Alarm
Viany Dec 2017
I remember when you used to wake me up in the morning with a kiss & a melody of your sound whispering in my ear telling me "good morning" the world was still..for I fixed my energy unto you...now that you're no longer in my presence, nature wakes me, the wind kisses me..the birds whisper sweet melodies in my ear...I should be saddened by this substitution but there's beauty all around me even when you're gone

Growth
Viany Nov 2017
Isn't it crazy how through pain, we learn our deepest lessons? We learn ourselves...Yes we create water through our eyes...yet we use that to quench our own roots. We blossom to such beautiful distinct flowers

Empty Promises
Viany Nov 2017
His empty promises
make me drink
this full glass of regrets..
Nov 2017 · 330
What do you want?
Viany Nov 2017
I want you to love me for a life time..
Be gentle to me...kiss me slowly
Like the sun setting down on me
Nov 2017 · 274
I knew..
Viany Nov 2017
Deep down I knew that I should've remained in my box,
completely guarded...
For these men are like vultures,
yet display themselves as doves
Nov 2017 · 294
You Are..
Viany Nov 2017
Empty promises..
Yet full of deception

Strangers Collide
Viany Nov 2017
I wish I met him at a more
"Traditional" place other than
The place we met...a room
Full of bodies either
Searching for lust,
Or searching for a distraction
In toxic water, or a toxic soul
Some even move to the rhythm
Of the beat for joy & laughter...
Others move to the rhythm of the
Beat to forget yesterday's sounds
As for me, I'm not sure why I was there,
But I certainly wasn't there to forget
The face I came across so unexpectedly
Serendipity as one might call it if you may
Beauty is what he called me
Drunk is what I called him
I closed myself off..so whys there a
Window peaking his light in?
...Drunk is what I called him
Yet his name is what I whispered
To myself on my drive home..

Foreigner
Viany Nov 2017
I am a foreign woman
Expressing myself to you
In a foreign language
These words are your words,
Yet somehow reside in me

Moon
Viany Nov 2017
I envy the arrival of the moon... for when the moon makes its appearance, darkness forms and silence grows. When the moon makes its appearance, my mind is restless

Intuition
Viany Oct 2017
My mother always says, a woman's intuition makes a man feel uncomfortable. For he knows that deep down, she knows everything without asking to know. She just knows. It flows like the river in her heart, it flies around like butterflies in her gut, it runs miles in her mind...it's always there. Now some women suppress that intuition for the case of not letting go of love...scared of the unknown after what they thought was love is lost..as we know, love is blind at times. But I encourage you ladies, do not neglect that intuition. For the more you listen to it, the stronger it gets. If you openly accept it, it'll be your safety net, your protection, your armor against deeper pain. Listen to your intuition...for it is a gift from God.

Au Contraire
Viany Oct 2017
He told me all the reasons he could not love me..
The heartbreak from his past,
the distance, and so forth
He said I'm just insecure
No...my love, you're just a coward

Embrace
Viany Oct 2017
When the sweet sun kissed your skin,
honey was formed..
I admire you like art,
dark skin smooth as silk
I need your embrace..
I need your embrace

WORST
Viany Oct 2017
The worst kind of love is one that's not reciprocated...
How do you feel such fire for someone,
Yet they feel no warmth?
Oct 2017 · 257
He Said...
Viany Oct 2017
You are my rib...
therefore causing
you to fracture,
is not an option..
tightly confined
in me..
you help me breathe

Open House
Viany Oct 2017
Opening your heart to someone new,
is like inviting them to an open house viewing...

here's my space..
here's where you may lay your head
when trouble or rest consumes you..

interested in moving in
