what they tell me
Andrea Fann Dec 2014
they tell me to believe in love at first sight,
but that was never real.

they tell me you are perfect for me,
but perfection is far off.

they tell me i can win your heart,
but it is no competition.

they tell me where my future will take me,
but is my destiny lying at your side?

they tell me to give in to love,
but i'm not sure it exists.

i know not what to believe of their words,
but there is something about you,
and my feelings towards it have always been
                                                                                     love.

and speak the word.

hello.

Mysteries (version one)
Andrea Fann Nov 2014
The sea is a mystery, secrets to unfold
It hides hundreds of stories yet to be told.

The seagulls and the starfish whisper the tales
The ships, yachts and boats raise their sails

The blue waves whisper of the secrets of the deep
Of mountain heights, of pathways steep

The voice of the water is loud and clear
There are many mysteries lying  here.

Lost
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
I am lost in a Whirlpool of thoughts
               waiting for an answer

I am falling into the abyss of
                               worries

My mind is a jungle in full chaos

Can I ever be free?

spaceships
flying in the air

a twinkle in my eye
    as I stare

seeing those things
     invisible

I am invincible

i see diamonds in the sky

              you know,

    i am

one of those
  bright, twinkling

The Weight of the World
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
People now days seem to force upon you the
WEIGHT of the world

You are consumed by
The world

                     People control
                                   what you say, what you do

People’s acceptance is now
Life

  Worry is
Common


People judge the smallest speck of your personality
When it dares to show itself

No one has the
Right

To judge you.
The you that makes…

..This world come alive

shine
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
all I see is darkness

once I shone
        once my light was on

but the light has left me,
               long ago
           seemingly never to come back.

yesterday you returned.

          keeping
    my soul ablaze

Hotdogs
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
i love apples
      and hotdogs

but they don't go together

they aren't meant
       to have one future
This is meant as an extended metaphor - just stop for a second and take a moment to think about it.

Snow white (version 2)
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
just one bite
in the wrong choice

just one bite
from the apple
of the wrong person

just one bite into wrong
   and you
          will be bitten back.

Snow White
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
Just one bite
            Just one choice
And she was gone

An action so innocent
                               turned out to be
                                                    deadly
Is she just a character in a movie
                                       or can a lesson be learned
One choice can determine your future...
Choose wisely

Silence
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
silence

the cry of my heart

wishing to be alone
                    for just one second

away from all
            away from people

silence

just me and peace and a greater power

My Name
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
People say my name is
                                worthless
                                                crazy
                                                         undeserving
                              
                      ­              People try to define me
                         by their standards
                                       by their thoughts
                                                      by what they think I am

       They don't know me
                  They don't know my name
                        I'm Strong
                      I'm Defiant
                     I am Victorious
                                                      ­             That is my name

Shadow
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
There is a hidden part

A part that is playing hide and
                                       seek

A part that we don't dare
                                      show

A Shadow that stays within us
                  
                         forever...

Trash
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
So much in life
Unnecessary

We think we need more
when we actually have all

So much in life
Unnecessary

We need to lose
to gain.

we have so much trash.
Inspired by a single word: trash.

Worry
Andrea Fann Aug 2014
You wake up
something isn't right

you hear the words
and are filled

not with joy,
or peace,

no,
you are filled with worry.
