Warning
Viany Aug 2017
Don't fall like the leaves for a poet
They'll carve out words of you
On many trees for the rest of eternity

My love was deep for you..
Yet while I was drowning,
You were floating

We're all broken pieces...walking puzzles...
Looking for the right fix
Looking for the right fit

Advice
Viany Aug 2017
You my friend are not a cemetery
thus, stop opening your arms
to those who are only
looking for a place to
rest their weary bones
love yourself—
it is the only way
we could ever
become
lovers

Green
Viany Aug 2017
There’s a jungle growing
inside of me and each
leaf trembles with melody
You are the prettiest face
that has ever carved
a smile for me
When our eyes meet
I earthquake
I’m adamant that all rivers
are silent eulogies carrying
our secrets deep within earth
my veins are small rivers
you, are the sea
I vow to always remember
your face the way the ocean
recalls the moon
Darling, I am possessed by
your nature

Taste
Viany Aug 2017
I wanted a taste of the foreign land
Heard it has more flavor
I wanted to dip my finger
In its sweet mystery
& let the smell linger
Like the hotness of your tea

Lust in Love

How convenient for him to tell you he's falling for you only when he's falling in you...sadly you open up & take it all in

She asks...
Viany Aug 2017
Why play with my hair,
when you can run your fingers through the knots of my soul instead?

Hmmm...

I hope you love her & not the idea...of...her

Day&Night
Viany Aug 2017
Notice how in the daytime we're too busy seeing & appearing with no fear of what's there or near...
In the nighttime, we calm ourselves to feel, seek, & hear..the sounds that are so
clear & near...

Unfinished poems are the flower seeds I've planted...I'm waiting for the rain to make them bloom

After our fight he came in the room and sat on the edge of the bed next to me. We sat in silence reflecting on the words we spewed at one another. Silence. He chuckled. I whispered "what?" He says, "do you hear that? Even the birds know how to communicate better than us" I smiled

Shhh
Viany Aug 2017
So used to being silenced
That when he asked me what was on my mind, I was eager to speak yet whispered "nothing"

Read me
Viany Aug 2017
I guess Saul was right,
You stuck a bookmark in me
And walked away..
How do you just walk away?
You weren't done reading me
Before you opened her up..
& highlighted your favorite spots..
You're not supposed to judge a book
By its cover...thought I taught you better

Unfamiliar with Love
Viany Aug 2017
Why aren't you mean to me?
Why do you respond right away?
Why do you care so deeply?
Why do you beg me to stay?

Yet lies with another
Sad, sad lover

Grow with me
Viany Aug 2017
We found each other when we weren’t looking like a rainbow in the morning, we didn’t know it had rained until we dragged ourselves out of bed and looked up at the sky. We came with different companies never expected to be seen...Or perhaps we wanted to be seen but based on a different need. When we crossed each others paths, we were both staring at the grooves in the pavement wondering where all the flowers had gone. In a sense we found each other the way the wind scatters seeds across the earth -how beautiful...we fell between the cracks, yet we never expected to blossom

Bloom
Viany Aug 2017
How flowers
Grow from the soil
They break from the earth
Before they bloom

My body is no different,
There, grows a heart where it aches
See this garden of roses
Pushing thorns
Through my bones

Darling, this is not a poem
This is a wound blooming

Talk back
Viany Aug 2017
No one has words to say
Except my pen & paper
Whispers with the voices
In my head...

— The End —
