Hair

Curls become straight
Hair flows beautifully
until it wraps around me
Holding me down
Fighting against my will
Enjoying the pain
Of the screams
My heart makes,

Your kindness reflects,
the hospitality of your soul,
on the surface of the waves.

Your silence reflects,
the loudness of your mind,
in the echoes of the room.

Your voice reflects,
the honesty of your heart,
in the whispers to my ear.

Your positivity reflects,
the clarity of your thoughts,
flowing in your mind.
Your kiss reflects,
the gentleness of your touch,
leaving an impression in my soul.

Burry me underwater
A-S Mar 2014
Bury me underwater;
where corals can grow like plants,
piercing through my veins,
sticking out of my rotting flesh.

Burry me underwater;
where my torso would be,
my own personalized treasure chest;
with my broken heart,
as the most valuable finding.

Burry me underwater;
where fish would feed off,
of my undiscovered bruises,
and my unhealed wounds,

Burry me underwater,
so I can feel again.*

Walls
A-S May 2014
I'll build some walls
to protect  myself.
Atleast,
that is plan A.

If my first wall,
Breaks down,
I will try again.

If my second wall,
Breaks down,
I will build somewhere else.

If my third wall,
Breaks down,
(I'll give up)
And look who's behind it.
Maybe even ask
For some help building
it back again.

I don't even have bricks yet.

independence
A-S Jan 2014
In life,
you will be thrown away,
by someone you thought,
loved you unconditionally.

You will be alone,
you will be broken.

Eventually,
someone will get you up again.

But, they'll throw you away too.

And this time,
you won't be lonely,
because you have yourself.

You will be broken,
yet you will have the strength,
to fix yourself,
and stand back on your feet.

But this time you will be standing,
independently.

glue the pieces together,
this way I'll be unbreakable.
That's all I want to be.

Strange eye contact
A-S Mar 2014
I looked around,
you caught my eye.

I wish you hadn't.

There was eye contact,
It was strange.

At that moment,
I regreted looking at you,
but I couldn't stop.

With anger and hate,
I kept staring,
at your beautiful,
dark brown eyes.

My heart was beating,
it wanted to get out if my chest,
run away and hide from you.

I didn't listen to this pure *****,
I ended up in this situation.

I was still staring,
as I began panicking.

I looked away,
and then closed my eyes.

You had won.

But the reason why I looked away,
wasn't because I was afraid,
or because I was weak;

It was because;

I couldn't handle,

the confrontation,

with my own reality.

Ballet
A-S Jan 2014
Is see her standing over there,
looking in the mirror
comparing herself to others.
She's hating herself,
because she doesnt have,
the beautiful ballet-arms,
or the widest gap,
between her thighs.
I never noticed,
how skinny she was,
until now.
I could almost,
see right through her.
Every time she concentrated more,
on perfectioning her dance,
you could see the layer of insecurity,
covering her capabilities.
She's passionate,
and has talent.
But she doesn't believe it.
And in her head,
she never will.

Inner-emotion
A-S Feb 2014
I don't believe you,
when you say,
those three words,
the three magic sylables,
each sylable with its own emotion,
forming a sentence of commotion.

A powerful sentence,
yet you say it careless.
The words glide out of your mouth,
over your dry lips,
as they dance in the air,
without a care,
they end up in my ear,
as they find comfort here.

One natural response,
and my heart is racing,
Not knowing the consequences,
it will be facing.

My brain holds back,
trying to keep my heart on track,
trying to restrain,
but still reminding it of the pain,

The fake smile changed in a frown,
as soon as I looked down.

My mascara blends out,
as my tears take a route.
The scars that are left behind,
leave an impression on my mind
and an engraving in my heart,

People stared at me,
wondering who I could be,
avoiding my biggest fears,
and covering up my tears,
make-up was a mask,
and it was my new task,
I changed my role,
to protect my soul.

Afraid
A-S Jan 2014
I am afraid of failing.
Everybody expects me,
to be me,
to think deep,
find a solution,
and succeed.

I am a perfectionist,
I have always been,
I want to achieve.
And my mind tells me,
no excuses.
Yet,
Every time I fall,
reality hits me harder,
and I disappoint myself.
I realize I had set my standards,
too high.

I want to be independent,
strong,
and confident.
I will pull myself up,
because I need to prove myself,
I can do anything,
I set my mind to.

And I may have been through a lot,
But there's no reason to give up.

But it makes me mute
I can't tell you how much I love you
In the way I can't even love myself.

So I smile and lean towards you
To kiss you on your forehead
Hoping that's a signal you'll understand.

your body was big,
and your back was protecting me,

I felt safe,
from all the negativity,
that was surrounding me,

but the moment you felt raindrops,

You ran away from me,
and hid behind someone else.

This is the reason,
I still have trust issues,
even with myself.

But one day,
people will hide behind me,
and I will protect them,
no matter what.

Travelling with the speed of light, in the darkness of the salty waters; these fish are like no other. The way they separate their personal space defines the disturbance of our minds.

The color red,
Stands for love,
