You.
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
You have such a beautiful smile
The way your teeth glitter
Captivate me

Your eyes are more intense
When I have you in front of me
Colored honey brown

You have such a pretty face
The kind that hurts hearts
If you watch it too long

And I know you are dangerous
But I follow anyway

Not knowing what will become of me
Not caring

As long as I have you

I can die happy

This Concrete Bench
Bianca E Rangel Oct 2013
This concrete bench
Has tear stains

And nicks on the edges
From when we fought

And loved so very hard.
It's been awhile, hasn't it?

I fell in love
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2014
I've fallen in love
Irresponsibly, irrevocably like Bella in Twilight

It's cheesy
Beautiful
And terrifying

It's deep
And everything I could ever dream
It's romantic

Like a movie
Or a book

It smells like church and has unspoken promises of everything and nothing.

Hard
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
The floors are hard
And difficult to get through

But never have I tried
Since I know what can and cannot be done

And my mother says
Keep your head

When falling in love

Fancy.
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
Can I have one of those fancy cameras?

So I can take fancy pictures.
Wearing fancy clothes.

And pretend life's perfect

Like the girl holding her perfect camera
Taking fancy pictures
Wearing her fancy clothes

Because her life's flawless

Can I have one of those fancy cameras?

So I can deceive you with
My million dollar smile
Wearing my fancy clothes

Because it's always easier to stand behind a fancy camera
Than have to face all the fancy people.

In the dark.
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
Now, we will walk
The school hallways
Side by side

In the middle of the night
Where silence is at its loudest
And the moon continues to shine down

Creating shadows
And making them caress the walls  
Answering our unspoken questions

"Is this what love feels like?"

We feel important
And powerful
In the dark

Our faces are hidden
But it is okay
We do not need to see, to know.

There are unspoken oaths here
Only the walls can hear

*"Don't you dare, break my heart."

Not anymore.
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
**** it up
Because that is all you can do now

Give it all you have
Because it is going to get a lot worse before it gets better

Go with one foot in front of the other
Because you can not afford to fall

Not anymore.

Keep your fists clenched and your heart bitter
Because no one's going to break down the walls you so hastily put forth

Not anymore.


Keep your head held high
Because looking up at the sky is so much better

Take a hold of what hurts most and toss it to the wind
Because living a life of regrets, is like not living at all

It is a world where everything is against you
Because compared to them, you are nothing but a ripple in the puddles
Of spring rain.

But, not anymore.

Gazing

I gazed
At the unforgiving moon
From my sunken ship
In the jealous waters

Light up
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
It lights the whole sky
Those eyes
Forgive me

A woman scorned
Is not something to trifle with
I always did believe in her capabilities

We were friends once
Until the shadows grabbed hold of her
And I was too afraid to follow

I should have spoken that day
Protected her
That is what best friends are supposed to do right?

They spit on her
Called her terrible things
And she never shed a tear

Even when they tore her favorite necklace
The one I gave her to prove how much she meant to me

And now as she walks the path of darkness
Leaving pieces of her heart on the lonely floor
I can only watch

Goodbye my friend
These candles burn for you
In the deepest of darkest nights

I did always say that one day she would light up the whole sky

U mad Bro?
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
I took him away from you
I will admit, it was wrong of me

I may have lied to your face
And told you we were best friends

I kissed him behind your back
Literally

Shouldn't you be thanking me?
If it was not with me, it would have been some other ****

I seduced him
As easy as cutting a knife through warm butter

Shouldn't you be mad at yourself
Were you not the one who could not keep him?

Oh but look at the bright side?
You were taught an important lesson today..

To watch that back of yours, you never know when someone may decide to stick a knife in it.

Oh...you mad,  bro?
Bianca E Rangel Jun 2013
I have never ran,  or burned beyond
any safe haven,
And your wit was lonely at times
In lost ripped things

Which in the end, forgot me.
Because  I cannot return out of spite

You're afraid  
And you've striven
Although I myself have finished

You braved always strong by strong
And myself?
I acted.
(And resurfaced, screaming because I loved)

Her wispy memories
And your wistfulness drowned me at times

But I still remembered and stood
Lost, and very much torn

As the wonderful  fought
The tainted forgot
Always reaching

Because nothing
Which we are
Blurred at the edges
And it continues breaking when you're gone

Your heart is hardened
But I can still cry

Because whose really the one who is aloud to be called strong?

I listened to you with a  giving heart
Even though at times what you said was  foreign,
And you laughed, clever and bitter

With each slur of the tongue

(I do not wish anymore.)

What is it about you that reached
and understood; everything and nothing
Not the stains of your heart in all its  lonesome
But still it continued to be full of everything frightening.

You're still so high, and it's dark up there isn't it?
I tried one of those mad lib poem things, where you enter a bunch of adjectives and verbs and all that.

This is what came up.

I tweaked it of course and made it flow better.

I really like how it came out.

It's confusing, and at times sounds like I have no idea what I'm talking about.

But that's love isn't it?

The Devil Beckoned
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
The Devil beckoned to me when I died
The air of decay surrounding my body was suffocating
As I took my last few breaths

The ones gathered around, cried no more
It was almost time
For God to take me home.

I prepared myself to leave this world
And then I saw the Devil once more
He called to me once again

Which side should I choose?
I did not know I even had a choice.
Then the world went black

And I heard no more.
In English today we read a poem by Emily Dickinson (I head a fly buzz when I died) and we had to paraphrase it. I read it out loud in class and my teacher had said that I made a poem of my own :)

Beautiful Person
Bianca E Rangel Oct 2013
Beautiful person
I want to be with you

Although you continue to stop my heart

I want to be with you
Under the sun

Even if one day we have to say goodbye
I won't forget to give you my
"Love Message"

Because I know one day you will return again

You beautiful person
Who continues to hold my heart

I hope you will continue
To protect it

And keep it safe
In your pockets that are so very empty

Forever

Sometimes I do forget
That your beauty hurts

And sometimes I forget to smile
At you

So I will continue to watch you from afar

Oh beautiful person
Can I hold your hand?

And walk under different moons with you?

This feeling just wants to burst
Right out of my chest

A feeling adults have never understood

You beautiful person

Continue to stay
With me

Beautiful person, I need to tell you
What's in my heart of hearts

You need to know

Under the thousand suns we crossed
While we watched the many moons

That I fell in love with your beautiful person.
I like listening to J-pop songs and try to come up with my own lyrics.

I don't edit it much, I like the way it's raw and random.

Yukata
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2014
I'm wearing my  yukata under the zealous stars
Thinking about you
With an aching heart

For this forever luminescent moon
I shall sing
And dance

For all that life stands for
Under these stars
That scream my name

I'm wearing my yukata under the zealous stars

Sky, Ocean and Sand
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
If dreams were like the sky
They'd be endless
And what can you possibly believe in if there's nothing left?

I let go
Because I heard if it was true my little bird would come back to me
Hope must always be there

If tears were like the ocean
You'd drown
And how far is it you'd go under?

I forgot
Because I heard that you should never dwell in the past
It's too dark there

If hands were like the sand
We'd hold on longer
And what else is there to do but look for tomorrow
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
What pray tell is it I so deeply remember?

Was it the way his eyes fell upon mine?
And threatened to **** me in

Perhaps it was when the conversation fell below the water
Or the way my words were lost in the darkest of night

Maybe when he stole my breath in the purest of sins
Was it when I felt his trembling form beneath my fingers

How could I ever forget his hypnotic voice
That poured over me like honey

Or the arms that enveloped me
And the hands that kept me warm

When it came to say goodbye, and farewells were said
I knew, he would one day return

Back to my bed

Even though many years have passed since I've seen my prince
And I've grown old and withered instead

The mirror still spoke the same, "You my queen, are a fool"
564 · Jan 2013
I have never understood...
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
I have never understood why it is the flowers bloomed
Or why the fish decided to live in the sea

And how is it you continued?

I have never understood why it is the moon shined so brightly
Or why the grass never grew green

And how is it you decided?

I have never understood why it is my voice never carried through the walls of pearl
Or why the stars flew across the never ending sky

And how is it you stayed?

I have never understood why it is I dreamed quixotic dreams
Or why my heart never stopped breaking

And how is it you continued to hope?

I have never understood why life has dealt me these hands
Or why I could not deal myself back in

I have never realized you were the sun
Or that I was the rays

How is it you have nott fallen?
558 · Jul 2013
Only in July
Bianca E Rangel Jul 2013
There was a lady who wore a green beanie
She knew how to break my heart

And so I offered her water

But I dared not look in her eyes
For fear of seeing her broken smile

Even so she thanked me

And I closed the door feeling lighter
Happy I kept face

Once I made it home though
I began to cry

In the dark
Where secretes are easily kept

For old ladies
And striped orange summer dresses

Who still continued to wear green beanies.
****. Today was rough.

But I know I am truly blessed.
555 · Jan 2013
Collided
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
If the Heavens and Earth collided,
You, my dear, would stay undecided

And I'd thank you for the deeds you accomplished
In this pitiful life of mine

Although we could never see eye to eye
I'm still happy that we tried

I suppose this means we were never meant to be
Since you came from the soul

And I from the clouds above

When we intersected our fates shattered through
And our words went askew

Forever will you remember this day
When Heaven and Earth decided to meet

Under the broken moon
When I painfully whispered, "Adieu"
555 · Oct 2013
Naked Feeling
Bianca E Rangel Oct 2013
It is a naked sort of feeling
When you're not around

And I'm colder than usual
In this room of things that fall

As the ceiling continues to drop
My heart doesn't stop hurting

Or keeps my eyes from seeing
Just how empty this room is

When I don't have you.
549 · Feb 2013
How far is far?
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
If I  have fallen in the arms of misery
And was told I could not escape
Because I was too tangled

How far would I go?
To remember
That spring is always after winter

If I am drowning in the bitter memories
And was told I could not forget
Because I was in too deep

How far would I go?
To realize
There is always a rainbow after a storm

If I am stuck in time
And was told that it would be forever
Because I took too long

How far would I go?
To understand
We can not live forever.

Hero
Bianca E Rangel Apr 2013
I write our names in the sand
Wishing for your happiness
Wherever that may be.

We were only kids
You always played the hero
And I watched, with one hand on my heart

Even when the ocean washed away,
The evidence of us.
I never stopped trying to touch the stars

And have never stopped chasing my dreams.

Even though you don't play hero anymore
I continue to keep my hand over my heart
Praying, to God, to bring you back to me.
539 · Jan 2013
Once upon a time...
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
There once was a princess...

Who needed help to escape
From all of the towers
That kept her locked away

She wanted to run from it all

They made her stay


She once knew a samurai...

Who fought for love and honor
With an iron heart
And believed he could save the world

When he could not even save himself

From the demons that taunted him
When the stars came into view


There once was a story I had read long ago
About two souls
That understood each other

More than you could ever know

There was a woman
She always wore gowns of tumbling silk
Who loved with all her being

A man
Never seen without his armor
Who fought to save with all he had

Time held a grudge over him

And so,

They fell.
531 · Jan 2013
Same Endings
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
It's always the same ending
The princess always gets her golden haired lover

And what of the others?
Who are left with watery smiles
And hearts ripped in two

Love sometimes feels as if it's too sweet
Since they say prince's love a damsel in distress

And what if you put on your own glass slipper?
With an air of independence
And bandages covering that sore spot on the right

It never was easy watching another's happiness
  When it seems as if yours was denied those many years ago

And so what if you cry
Every now and then
And sometimes you drown

It's always the same ending
The princess always gets her undeserving tale that ends with "Happily Ever After"

And yours forever with a rope that promises peace and a chair that makes you feel important for a final moment

Slow Down...
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
Slow down
You are all alone now
You have always been alone

Drink this potion
Until you feel warm
And understand that you will never get

What you thought you needed

To keep breathing was,

Me.

Butterflies
Bianca E Rangel Mar 2013
Butterflies scare me
They are too unpredictable

Kind of like you.

Just when I think
That maybe. (Just maybe.)

You have decided to let me inch closer

You flutter away
In this beautiful way

That leaves me still hoping

Even though I am now farther than where I started

But I continue to chase after you
With my heart as a net

Open and waiting for unpredictable you.

Japanese Love Song
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
I can no longer fall in love

Anymore, in this way.

It is too difficult to tame

To understand, you

Reminded of a evening summer breeze

Warm and fleeting

We were meant to stay the same

Through all the seasons

Even when the snow covered the ground

And loneliness burned my cheeks with shame

Because understanding was different from saying,

"I am no longer able to fall in love, with you, this way."

Searching

Forever searching
For broken glass
In the teary eyed stars

It's ect. ect.
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
It's broken
And you can't fix it, not anymore

It's tumbling
And there's no way you'll reach it as it falls

It's fading
And you'll continue to watch it disappear

I'm losing
And you won't give me this one victory

I'm fighting
And there's no chance of stopping me now

I'm an extra
And that's who I'll always be

Under the bed
Bianca E Rangel Mar 2013
There is a box under the bed
Each person owns

Some are ***** with
Lies

Or stained with
Tears

The blessed ones are full of
Laughter

And lovingly cared for
Through even the worst of disasters

All in all
There is still a box

That each person owns
Under the bed
Ehh....Couldn't figure out how to end it. Where's my muse?
414 · Jan 2013
I realized
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
I realized that
When I look at the moon
You are looking at it too

We are under the same sky

I wanted to share this discovery
With you

But I was afraid
It would scare you off

Like the crunch of leaves
To an unsuspecting deer

And you would gallop away
Into the forest I am not allowed to enter

And you will say,

"We may be under the same sky
But our worlds are vastly different"
413 · Jan 2013
Tonight
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
I am sad tonight
I think I will cry

Until the moon is swallowed by the night clouds

I am angry tonight
I think I will scream

Until the sun rises

I am lost tonight
I think I will run

Until the frigid December air burns my lungs

I am lonely tonight
I think I will sleep

Until someone decides to wake me

Are always falling

And sometimes

For him too...
Bianca E Rangel Feb 2013
I want eyes like glitter
And lips like gold
A voice full of thunder
Nothing more

For him to take me away
And give me beautiful disasters
He who brings me to my knees
And makes life worth living once more

Swing with me?
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
Swing with me
Until the world swirls

And colors of the sky begin to blend
Be patient

For the sun will set


And your secrets will be safe

Under the moon


We will make promises
To stay together

Through all things that make up forever

I and You.

Under the water
Not understanding

Listen to the
Gossip of the wind
Closing your eyes

Disbelieving of love.

Empty
Bianca E Rangel May 2013
It is a naked sort of feeling
When you're not around

And I am colder than usual
In this room of things that fall

As the ceiling continues to drop
My heart does not stop hurting

Or keep my eyes from seeing
How empty this room is without you
348 · Jan 2013
You are my friend
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
You are my friend
Still

And with these burns on my heart
I have kept our dreams

Locked
In our special box

Although
It hurts to open

My eyes
Without you

At my side
You are still my friend
First posted poem on here..Woo!

Never again, for anyone.

I have seen
Bianca E Rangel Jan 2013
I have seen what the world has done to you
When it hurt you so


I have seen what your eyes look after
You have seen her
It hurts on the left side of my chest

Watching these fireworks with you
Make me want to hold your hand
And tell you that it will all be okay

If you just let me

Do not go away
I can not bear it
If you leave with her

I want to be the one  
That holds you as the stars light out

— The End —
