A Cry for Change

I don't know

Would that change your mind?
I DONT KNOWWW AGHHHH

TV
apricot Dec 9
TV
I don’t wanna talk right now.
I just wanna watch TV
I’ll stay in the pool and drown.
So I don’t have to watch you leave.
And I’ll be in denial for at least a little while
What about the plans we made?
TV by Billie Eilish. My dog recently passed away, and these lyrics are all that's on my mind.

Bittersuite Blossom
apricot Nov 14
In shadows where two hearts entwine,  
A dance begins with fate’s design.  
She loves him like the summer sun,  
Yet he’s entranced by another one.  

A glance exchanged beneath the trees,  
Whispers carried on a balmy breeze.  
Her laughter sparkles in his eyes,  
While dreams of her friend ignite the skies.  

Oh tangled web of tender woe,  
Where passion's fire and heartache grow.  
Two souls adrift in currents wild,  
Each lost within their fervent masked smile.  

He walks a line both thin and frail;  
Between fierce love and a bitter tale.    
One holds his heart in open hands —    
The other charms with distant lands.    

At dusk they meet under twilight's veil,    
Three silhouettes telling secrets pale;    
With unspoken words that cling to air—    
Their silent cries weigh heavy there.

Who will remain when dawn breaks clear?
And which sweet song will fade from ear?  
For love can bloom but also betray;      
As seasons shift and hearts decay.

Each moment etched in time's cruel flow—    
Twilight trembles as truth must show:      
Will triangles cease or deeper bind?        
In whispered dreams their fates aligned.

So here they stand at crossroads bend—      
Lovers caught where paths descend;        
An echo waits for softer sighs -            
Such is love—with its bittersweet ties.
Love triangle going on in my class, so I'm writing this poem...?

Infatuation
apricot Nov 5
A longing, a desire that I cannot deny.
Your smile, your laugh, your every move,
I find myself lost, caught in your groove.

A whirlwind of emotions, a storm within,
I keep my feelings tucked away, hidden like a sin.
But every time our eyes meet, I feel my heart race,
Caught in this secret infatuation, lost in your grace.

I dare not speak of this love I hold so dear,
For I fear rejection, judgement, and the tears.
But in the silence, in the shadows of the night,
I dream of a world where our love takes flight.

So here I am, silently pining away,
In this secret infatuation, where my heart will stay.
Forever in love, forever in longing
I have a crush ****

H.E.R
apricot Oct 24
Spread a fair lustre, by a graceful chair,
She put a cloud of jest and frown,
Softly glided the veil with its white hair,
Laid her wide and passionate eyes,
Sweet shadows over a Summer wood,
Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe, Lydia Huntley Sigourney, and Amy Lowell

THE GREATEST
apricot Oct 18
In the vast expanse of time and space,

There lies a being of untold grace,

The greatest of all, a force unseen,

A presence felt, yet never been.



It whispers through the wind and trees,

It dances in the ocean breeze,

It shines in every star above,

The greatest of all

My love for you

Dead or Dying
apricot Oct 4
In the darkness of the night, a soul does fade
Through the veil of death, it starts to wade
Life slipping away, like sand through fingers
Leaving behind memories that forever lingers
The breath grows shallow, the heart beats slow
As the final moments begin to show
The body grows cold, the spirit takes flight
Leaving behind a world of endless night
In the stillness of the room, a loved one weeps
As the reaper comes to claim what he keeps
A life once vibrant, now still and cold
A story left untold, a tale left unsold
But in the end, we all must part
It's the cycle of life, the beating heart
So cherish each moment, hold them near
For in the blink of an eye, they may disappear
And when the time comes for us to go
May we find peace in the afterglow
For death is not an end, but a new beginning
A journey into the unknown, a chance for winning.

L'amour De Ma Vie
apricot Oct 3
Désolé mon amour,  
My heart is heavy with regret,  
For the words left unsaid,  
And the love I didn't show.  

I wish I could turn back time,  
And hold you close once more,  
To tell you how much you mean to me,  
And how my love for you will forever endure.  

Désolé mon amour,  
For the pain I've caused,  
I promise to make it right,  
And cherish you without a pause.  

Désolé mon amour, 
I'm sorry
Inspired by a song.

Pumpkin Spice
apricot Oct 3
🧸☕🍂˚ ༘ ೀ⋆。˚
Your flavors dance on my taste buds like a vine.
In lattes, baked goods, and candles so bright,
You bring warmth and joy to my autumn night.

Your aroma fills the crisp air,
Invigorating all who dare
To savor your sweet, spicy delight,
As leaves turn golden, and nights grow tight.

Your magic is in every sip,
A symphony of flavors, a trip
To a land of comfort, and cozy cheer,
Where pumpkin spice brings us near.
Its offically October so I quickly came up with a poem abt pumpkin spice

River Rock
apricot Sep 27
River rock, smooth and cool
Glistening in the midday sun
A testament to time and strength
Beneath the rushing waters run

Carved by centuries of flow
Each curve and groove tells a story
Of the world's relentless dance
Of nature's boundless glory

I pause to touch your ancient surface
Feel the weight of your solid form
And marvel at your steadfastness
Amidst the chaos of the storm

River rock, you stand unmoving
A symbol of resilience and grace
A reminder of the beauty
That lies within this wild place

Hollow
apricot Sep 27
In the depths of my soul lies a hollow
A void that echoes with endless sorrow
A deep ache that no one can follow
A pain so raw, it's hard to swallow

I try to fill it with fleeting pleasures
But they only serve as temporary measures
The emptiness remains, a constant tether
Dragging me down, no end in sight, forever

I search for meaning, for some reprieve
But all I find is grief upon grief
I long for solace, a moment of peace
To bring an end to this endless disease

So I wander alone in this empty space
Hoping to find a way to embrace
The hollow that haunts me

Backstabbing Bitch
apricot Sep 24
A friend so fair and bright,
With words that cut like a knife.
They'd stab me in the back,
With lies and deceit in their track.

Their smiling face, a mask of deceit,
Their heart, a pit of greed and hate.
They'd take my trust, and break my heart,
With every word, they'd tear us apart.

Their loyalty, a mirage in the sand,
Their friendship, a poisoned brand.
They'd whisper lies in my ear,
And laugh as I shed a tear.

But still, I'd hold on to the hope,
That one day, they'd change their scope.
That they'd see the harm they've done,
And make amends, before the sun.

But alas, it's just a dream,
For they are lost in their own scheme.
And I am left to weep and mourn,
The loss of a friend, forever torn.

From the start
apricot Sep 21
From the start,  
where dreams first whispered  
and laughter danced on air,  
the world seemed wide,  
like a page blank and bright.  

We built castles from crayons,  
painted skies with no limits,  
every worry a distant cloud  
easily chased away.  

Friendship bloomed  
like spring flowers,  
mixing colors in the sun,  
each moment a treasure  
held close,  
glistening like morning dew.

Falling in public
apricot Sep 20
In the crowded street,  
a stumble, a twist,  
my foot over the edge  
of a forgotten crack.  

Eyes blink, faces turn,  
laughter hides behind hands,  
and I, a moment caught  
in slow-motion fall.  

Heart racing like a drum,  
I gather my dignity,  
dust off my knees,  
and smile through the blush—  

a tiny trip in the dance of life,  
reminding me,  
we all wobble sometimes.
this is what goes through my mind when someone falls in public.

Loss of a loved one
apricot Sep 17
Tears fall down my face  
Heart heavy with sorrow  
Memories linger close  
Aching for tomorrow.

Gone too soon  my dear  
Leaving me alone  
Life will never be the same  
In this empty home.
My uncle died almost 6 years ago, and it was his death date recently so I wrote this for him.
Fly high, Uncle Gus

Mom & I

We're like the joy and the pain
My mom and I, we don't get along
We're like the peace and the storm
My mom and I, we don't get along

Ocean
apricot Sep 12
🌊☆⋆。🪼𖦹°‧★🐚
The gentle waves whisper secrets to the shore
As the seashells glisten in the sunlight
A symphony of colors, shapes, and textures
Each one with a story to tell

The ocean breeze carries tales of distant lands
Of pirates and mermaids, of shipwrecks and lost treasures
The rhythm of the sea drums in my heart
A lullaby from Mother Nature's own lips

I walk along the sandy shore
Feeling the cool water tickle my toes
A sense of peace washes over me
In the presence of this vast, eternal world

I pick up a seashell, hold it to my ear
And listen to the song of the sea
A melody of memories, of dreams, of hopes
Echoing through the chambers of my soul

Eternal Sunshine
apricot Sep 9
🪷🪞✨🫧♡︎🪷
In the realm of eternal sunshine,
Where the skies are forever divine,
The clouds are made of cotton candy,
And the breeze whispers sweetest wine.

The flowers bloom in vibrant hues,
Their scent fills the air with dews,
The bees and butterflies dance in delight,
In this place where time stands still and bright.

The sun shines bright with golden rays,
Warming the souls and brightening days,
The waves roll in with gentle grace,
In this haven where all is in place.

The stars twinkle like diamonds at night,
A celestial show of pure delight,
The moon glows with a soft embrace,
In this realm of eternal sunshine and grace.
Stream the album eternal sunshine by ariana grande!

Autumn
apricot Sep 9
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡🪐༘⋆
Autumn's hue, a season anew,
With friends, we dance, and laugh, and do,
In golden light, our hearts take flight,
As leaves fall soft, a symphony in sight.

The rustle of leaves, a sweet refrain,
We chase, we play, and we gain,
In woods so grand, our souls are freed,
Together we roam, our joy unseated.

The breeze whispers tales of days past,
Our laughter echoes, our joy will last,
As we gather 'neath the setting sun,
Our memories made, our fun is done.

Distract
apricot Sep 7
Silent empty house
Echoes fill the empty rooms
Alone with my thoughts

Food calls out to me
But guilt consumes every bite
Struggle to nourish

Lost in my own mind
Trying to find balance within
Home is not a refuge
Based off the song "Male fantasy" By Billie Eilish

Gone
apricot Sep 7
Whispers in the breeze,  
We shared dreams like fragile glass,  
Now shards pierce my heart.  

Laughter cloaked in trust,  
Memories now bittersweet,  
A friendship unmade.  

Searching for your eyes,  
Yet finding only echoes—  
Familiar faces.

Cigarette smoke pills
apricot Sep 6
Cigarette smoke curls,  
Whispers of a restless night,  
Chasing fleeting highs.  
  
Bright pills in a row,  
Promises of peace and fun,  
But shadows follow.  
  
Lost among blue skies,  
Dreams blur in a whirlwind rush,  
Hope hides in the dark.

Depression
apricot Sep 6
Gray clouds in my mind,  
Heavy whispers pull me down,  
Hope’s light feels so far.
apricot Sep 6
For the love of my heart,
You rejected me,
The pain of rejection,
Is a heavy load.

The tears I cry,
Are a river of sorrow,
The wounds of rejection,
Are a never-ending story.

The memories of our love,
Are a distant memory,
The sting of rejection,
Is a haunting reality.

The pain of rejection,
Is a heavy load,
The wounds of rejection,
Are a never-ending story.

The love of my heart,
Is a distant dream,
The rejection of love,
Is a haunting reality.

Madison Beer, a gem
A beauty, a dream
Her eyes, so bright
A light, a beam
Her smile, so wide
A ray, a beam
Her laugh, so sweet
A honey, a treat

A beauty, a dream

apricot Sep 6
In a world of sound and fury,
Where the pop stars dance and hurry,
There's one who stands apart,
A shining star in the heart.

Her name is Billie Eilish,
A force of nature, a whirlwind's wish,
With a voice that's sweet and sly,
She'll make your heart sing and fly.

Her style is bold and unique,
A fusion of dark and light,
She's the queen of the beat,
A rhyme that's tight and neat.

She sings of love and pain,
Of life and all its gain,
Her words are like a river,
Flowing forth, forever and ever.

With every note she sings,
She casts a spell that clings,
Her music's like a dream,
A world of wonder, a world of scheme.

So let us celebrate this star,
This shining light in the far,
For in Billie Eilish's song,
We find our hearts made strong.
I love Billie Eilish.
