Fade
alison Jun 2015
You say you care but I see
your eyes wonder and
you don't quite understand
the meaning of your words
You don't hold me as tight
as you used to, I feel you
slipping away from me.

Good Vibes
alison Jun 2015
I woke up today with
a deep appreciation for being alive.
Somehow the air smells fresher,
the sun feels warmer,
the coffee is less bitter.
The universe is radiating
all these good vibes

Queen
alison Jun 2015
There's a fire in me
that can't be doused
There's a noise inside me
that I can't turn down
I have a heart that
beats silver and blue
There is an ocean
that lives in my lungs
and a crown of
thorns at my feet.

The One
alison Jun 2015
You're not the one
but you'll always
be my first love

We're not everlasting
but for now,
we can be happy

Bed head, bare skin
It feels right
for now.

I swallow my tongue
though I love you
the words don't come out
and if they do
they don't sound right
It's a lie to say
love is easy.

Return
alison Jun 2015
It's okay
I'll wait for you
because
we're not done
we never were

a smile planted
on your lips
lustful eyes
your fingers
reach across
to grasp mine

Overthinking
alison Jun 2015
Thoughts are like
a rare brand of poison
that will slowly
take over your mind
and eat you alive.

Existential

sometimes I doubt you're real
only something so perfect
could exist in dreams.

Spectrum
alison Jun 2015
You were the colour
that was missing
from my spectrum.

Grave
alison Jun 2015
You pronounce my name
in shock, as though it is a ghost,
and my body is a dead language.

Sincere
alison Jun 2015
My skin doesn't burn
anymore when you
touch it, instead I
feel the coldness of
your stare, icy orbs
that pierce the soul.

I once felt warmth
from your smile,
but now I know that
was only a charade.

Darkness
alison Jun 2015
In natures garden
we wonder, lost
unwinding paths,
haunted by the
shadows, stalked
by creatures of
night, all to look
up into midnight
seams, clouds
floating in lustrous
blue and a Cheshire
smile just for us.

I like how
being with you
makes me feel
as if anything
is possible
that everything
I struggled
through was
worth it for
this moment

My words
are powerless
to explain how
I feel for you

I don't know
what feeling is worse
being replaced
or
knowing I wasn't
that important to
you in the first
place.

Love
alison Jun 2015
I love being with him
even during his emotional storms,
The worst pieces change nothing.
I want every part of him.
the good, bad and otherwise.
First poem on the site
hi everyone!:)
