adriana: Poems

i made myself vulnerable so i could be close to you
and if i could i would burn away every inch of skin that you touched.
i'm so ashamed of loving you

i hate you so much. i hate you i hate you i hate you. and i still love you so much.

the night we met

i love you now and i'll love you forever

love long lost

adriana Feb 2020

love long lost

now you and i are nothing,
which is at least something,
because they say nothing lasts forever.

and all i ever wanted was forever with you.

i gave you everything that i was but somehow i always seem to come up just a little too short every time. jml

summer love in january.

adriana Feb 2020

summer love in january.

you were my world and i spent my days
spinning circles around you.
i just wish i could've prepared for the cold
before i remembered that seasons change.

dandelion wishes in winter

dandelion wishes in winter

i always wanted to die in the summer
when only three of my friends still knew my name
hit by a car or lightning, something or other
and not by this *****, self-induced shame

deep south

adriana Feb 2020

deep south

my clothes on the floor, sitting here in your bed
trying to find a way to disappear.
and i'm trying to run and i'm trying to leave
but somehow you just keep me stuck here.

drops for the ocean

adriana Feb 2020

drops for the ocean

sometimes i cry.
i cry until i have no tears left and my voice has long left me.
i sob until it feels like my lungs collapse.

(similarly to the world that i built with you in my head)

the beautiful way in which you offer up the world to me
makes me want to take it simply so i can give it back to you.

you spill an ocean of secrets
hoping that i can keep it for you

my whole life i’ve been learning to write,

except my heart because that belongs to you
but all of you is my everything,

i'm jealous of your love

adriana Nov 2019

i'm jealous of your love

suddenly gravity isn't just a theory or a force,
but a friend that keeps me company,
keeps me grounded,
while i watch you, weightless

free

and prone to leaving me

the love i pray is mine.

adriana Aug 2019

you've got a little while if you take the meds.

i'm walking the line but i know we can't talk.
i just wish we could bury this before your casket.

what i need to know

adriana Aug 2019

what i need to know

are you somebody's late night?
are you somebody's hold on tight?
are you the 3am, at my window,
throwing rocks because you've got no other place to go?
are you the where it starts?
are you the where it ends?
the getting back together just to fall apart again?

just something i heard somewhere. thought maybe you needed to hear it too

the gallery of broken girls: the traitor

adriana Jun 2019

the gallery of broken girls: the traitor

she was looking for love in all the right places
but her mother said the devil can take many faces

she ruined herself but still loved him the same
choosing him over her own family name

she pleaded her innocence to no avail
so she sat and just watched her whole life derail

she lost her way in trying to find "the one"
she loved the thrill but chasing all of them is done

and then there were six.
