Sometimes I get so **** nervous when I'm with you, it looks like I've forgotten the English language.
Or Spanish. Being bilingual doesn't help :p

No Escape
Caroline E Feb 2016
Even sitting here alone in the darkness,

It doesn't get me any further away from my problems

It doesn't help me become blind to my problems.

Sunburn
Caroline E Feb 2016
You're like the sun,

You light up my life,
But you also burn me.

They said time will heal, time will cure you
I've been deeply hurt; months, even years won't do

I have a feeling that this pain will last a lifetime...
I'll just have to learn to live with it,
Learn to live with this curse that will forever within me lie
I was bored in class, and voila, we have a poem.

Similarities

We're all a little broken inside,
aren't we?

Blind
Caroline E Feb 2016
I got bruises and black eyes
Running into walls, trying to find you

But I guess love really is blind after all.

Signs
Caroline E Feb 2016
I knew you were special when I said I was okay
And you looked into my eyes and said, "No you're not."
Usually everyone believes that lie.

Exhausted
Caroline E Feb 2016
"You're tired, aren't you?"*

Not in the way that you think.
Yeah I'm tired. Tired of loving the wrong people and getting hurt.

Caroline E Feb 2016
Lonely is the night
But my head very occupied
The thoughts of you are running through my mind
It's making my heart beat faster, making me feel alive
And I think I won't sleep tonight.

Humans don't love
getting hurt, but apparently
this one enjoys pain.

Not Quite Detached
Caroline E Feb 2016
Please don't hug me
Please don't make me laugh
Please don't give me that smile

Don't you see I'll get even more attached to you, when I'm trying to let go ?

"I'm irresistible," he says jokingly.
"You know you want me."

Late Night Conversations
Caroline E Feb 2016
"You should tell him how you feel. If you really want him that badly, you should. If you don't, it means you never really wanted him."

*"Okay... But how can I tell him if I always get **** nervous when I'm around him? How can I tell him if the words are always stuck in my throat?"
Conversation I had with my friend. Sorry if I'm writing too much about these things, but it's all I'm feeling right now.

Thinking...
Caroline E Feb 2016
Just thinking about the person I could've been kissing
Thinking about the person I'll forever be missing

Thinking about all the mistakes I've made
How I can never correct them, for it is too late

Thinking about how you were mine all along
But you never know what you have until it's gone

I Fell Too Late
Caroline E Feb 2016
You used to love me when I still didn't realize that I too, loved you back
You fell right away, too fast,
While I had my eyes closed, still hanging in the air

Now that I have finally opened my eyes, and know that I have really fallen

Sadly, I fell too late, too late...

Now it is I who loves you too much when you've already stood up from the ground and walked away.

My question is, where will all this love go now?
I'm so sorry for not realizing it sooner. I really am.

Gray
Caroline E Feb 2016
How cruel of you to come into my life
And convert the gray around me into rainbows

And when I'm finally able to see colors
You leave and take them along with you...
Idk, it just came to me...
Caroline E Feb 2016
That's what pain truly feels like,
A constant roaming in the shadows of the night

You have a face full of beauty,
Sadly a mouth full of lies

Forked tongue spitting venom like a snake's duty,
But oh how I still miss you when I look at the sky

I remember the good times we had like if it were yesterday,
But I never saw this coming, never thought I'd have to say goodbye

What more is there even left to say,
But just let out a relinquishing sigh

Although my heart aches at the thought of being apart from you,
I will walk away, for you have opened my eyes

The harsh reality that I was a speed bump,
On your journey to find the one

I thought there was love between us,
But I should've known that before it even started we were already done.

Jealousy
Caroline E Feb 2016
I know you're not mine,
But I can't help feeling jealous, you know?
I know I'm not his girlfriend or anything, but I can't help feeling like protective over him. I'm not really that type of person, but man, he makes me feel things.

Beats
Caroline E Feb 2016
I don't know why
But he makes my heart beat faster
Even when I don't want it to beat at all.

❤️
Caroline E Feb 2016
When you look at me, you take my breath away

When you flash me a smile, you take my breath away

When you talk to me, you take my breath away

Even just your very presence is enough to take my breath away

So Heavenly

That                                  Smile

He has no idea how much he means to me

He is just so beautiful

And I love him so much...

But then again, who am I to deserve someone as special as him?

Too Beautiful
Caroline E Feb 2016
He is so beautiful
I think he came right out of a painting from an art museum

He is so beautiful
I think he is an actual angel who fell from heaven

He is so beautiful

So beautiful I can't find greater words to describe him, because these aren't enough

Can a boy's face be described as beautiful?

Because that's all I think about when I see him.

Names
Caroline E Feb 2016
Your name tastes deliciously beautiful on my lips.
The sound of your name will never be tiring.

You're Mine.
Caroline E Feb 2016
If wanting you more and more each day or
If wanting you for myself and myself only is bad,

Then call me **egotistic.

Caroline E Feb 2016
The light from my eyes fading away
My throat burns as I try to get air

But I know that breathing will keep me alive, and I'll be forced to keep living in this broken world we call life

So I feel the pressure of the cord around my neck closing the connection to life, and the opening of the path to the unknown;

And unknown life where things may be better...
Idk.

It's 3 a.m. ...
Caroline E Feb 2016
Lonely is the night, but my mind very occupied
Busy with the thoughts of you swirling in my head
Then a wave of you hits me, I think I might be dead
Then I realize that I'm alive and the shore to salvation is just ahead...

But somehow I change my mind and let myself drown
And in the sea, I'm drifting deeper down...

Does God stay up in heaven, because He too, fears of what He has created?
I don't mean to offend anyone, but I just saw this somewhere...

"Oh, did he break your heart?"*

More like I broke it.
Crap. It was erased by accident too :p Sorry about that...

I want you here next to me.
Is that too much to ask for?

Acceptance
Caroline E Jan 2016
The lakes inside my eyes dried out

I wasted every drop on someone who wasn't worth my tears.

Nothing
Caroline E Jan 2016
Was I that easy to forget?

Well, at least I know how much you actually loved me.
Jan 2016 · 178
Don't you know...?
Caroline E Jan 2016
Don't you know how much I love you?
No?
Oh, well you have no idea.
I literally got this out of one of my other poems. I just squished in an extra line in there :p but I like it.

The Good in the Bad

Dance The Night
Caroline E Jan 2016
Your hand fits perfectly on the curve of my hip,
My hand fits perfectly on your shoulder blade,
And both of our hands perfectly fit together, intertwined with love...

And now we shall dance the night away, and
Forget about the w

What's worse?
The feeling of immense sadness?
Or the feeling of emptiness;
Knowing that your life will never be fulfilled, that nothing will ever fill that empty gap you need to live?

*What's worse?
Another troubling question that's been on my mind.

Unsuccessful Disguise
Caroline E Jan 2016
"How are you?"

"I'm okay."

"Are you really?"*

And I am left speechless.
No I'm not.

The Debate
Caroline E Jan 2016
I love you so much...

No I don't need you.

Um, I think you do...

No because I don't love him.

Hmm, I think you're lying.

No I'm right. I don't want him, I don't need him, and I don't love him.

Sure, whatever you say...
The fights that go on between my heart and my mind. So... what is the truth?

Caroline E Jan 2016
I remember the day when you were sitting on one end of the couch and I was sitting on the other one.

You motioned me to come and give you a hug
So I stood up and wrapped my arms around you while you were sitting

In that moment you pulled me down intentionally so I was there on the couch with you.

We stayed like that for a few minutes, cuddling....

And in that moment I realized that nothing could ever make me feel like I was home than being held in your arms.
Kinda like another poem I wrote, but eh. <3

Falling

Oh,
   
         how                
        
                     I'm                                        ­

                                         ­               
                                                 ­     you
I kinda felt like doing a concrete poem, even htough it doesn't look much like it... But that's okay. cx

Nervous
Caroline E Jan 2016
I want to tell you how I feel
But when I'm with you
My heart stops
My mouth opens, but I'm left speechless
I try to make out the words my heart has told my mind
But all that comes out are a slur of words; nothing's understandable
I don't want the beautiful words I have to say to you
Turn into a mess of unfinished thoughts
So maybe I think I'll say nothing at all...
At least not until I gain more confidence...

The Secret Bruise
Caroline E Jan 2016
This little kid and I were talking the other day...

Look at my knees! They're all bruised because I fall a lot!
Ouch, that must hurt.
A little. Do you have any bruises?
Oh yes. I have a really big one somewhere.

He looks down at my knees, but sees nothing. Then he looks at my arms, and sees nothing either.

What? I don't see any. Where is it?
Here.

With my index finger, I point at my heart.

Your heart? How can you have a bruise in your heart? I don't get it.
**You will when you fall in love, kid.
Love has punched me in the heart.
