I thought I was trying to find reasons
to keep loving you
But I guess I really was trying to find reasons
to walk away.

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.

Take Me Back
Caroline E Apr 2016
I miss not caring about what the world thought of me
Never mattered who saw, I always did what made me happy
Now everyone judges who you are
But sometimes society pushes it too far

I miss being so joyful and full of cheer
I was happy, even if bedtime was near
Now everyone just knows how to stress and worry
There's no time for leisure 'cause we're all in such a hurry

Back then people used to play with dolls and such
Now people play with hearts and see sad faces too much

Oh, I miss being so carefree
Never mattered what the world thought of me
I was always so happy

But then you're thrown into this cruel place
Funny yet sad how you think this was something you'd never face
I remember how I used to say "I want to be older" all the time
And now that I grew up, I think, *Man, how wrong was I...

It's time I do the same

Unready
Caroline E Jun 2016
At the end of the night
He held my hands
He looked deep into my eyes
And outside his car under the moonlight

He said, "I love you."

I was shocked, surprised even
I had no words, I was speechless
He was a person I did not want to lose
But my heart began to melt, because as I looked down at my shoes

I realized I couldn't say those three words back

Why Though?
Caroline E Aug 2016
Late at night,
For some weird reason,
We are more honest
We are more sensible
We are more broken

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?

That you're one of them.

I Shouldn't Be Silent
Caroline E Jan 2016
I'm afraid of making mistake, I'm afraid of saying something wrong
So that's why I don't talk whenever you're around.
But at the same time, if I don't ever talk to you or tell you how I feel,
Isn't that making a mistake too?

Depression

I am in the dark abyss of depression where no ray of hope could reach.

You should start growing
your own beautiful garden
Instead of waiting for someone who'll only
bring you a single flower

"You know you want me."

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

Free
Caroline E Mar 2016
Your eyes, your smile, everything about you,
my attention it seized

But somehow this love that was immense
Slowly got less and less intense

This love for you has now deceased
Finally from a beautiful curse I have been released.

Last Night
Caroline E Feb 2016
So sad, I've drowned out
I want to cry, but all I
Do is sit and stare...
I tried doing a haiku.

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 ?

Can a boy's face be described as beautiful?

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

The Good in the Bad

Nothing is good. Everything's bad; there nothing but darkness.

*Then why does the moon and stars exist?

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

Caroline E Feb 2016
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.

                                         ­

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

I Waited
Caroline E Oct 2015
I waited for you to come.
I did, with a smile on my face when the thought of the sight of you came into mind.
Happiness shone over me like the sun  shines over the earh.
I waited
And waited...


*But you never came.

Until You Came
Caroline E Nov 2015
I never planned to fall in love,
I didn't want to suffer.
I didn't want my heart to break
I didn't want my heart to ache
for someone who wasn't worth the mistake.

Until one day, I met you.
My heart you gained little by little
Day by day
Until the entire thing you had to take.

And in that very moment I realized I was doomed
And then I thought, maybe you are worth the pain.

2 a.m. thoughts

All I want to do is push you away from me, very far

But instead I'm pulling you back, why do you make it so hard?

"Friends"
Caroline E Oct 2015
When you fall friends will be there to catch you in midair
Or maybe they'll just play and mess with your hair
But sometimes they're not what they appear to be at first
Then eventually the truth will burst
They become masters at deceiving
At the end you they will be leaving
You realize that you they have been controlling
The lies now slowly come out crawling
You'll see that they've been playing with you all along even you may not believe it's true
But never trust them
Never judge them
Because the moment you do
They'll be backstabbing you
Credits to my best friend for helping <3 even tho it's about backstabbers

I got used to the insults

The pain is now a normal  
Thing to me.

You broke my heart in
Two and did not bother to
Even give it back

❤️
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
234 · Jan 2016
We Fit
Caroline E Jan 2016
Two broken pieces of the same object always fit together.
Maybe that's why you and I were made for each other.
Caroline E Oct 2016
If you're going to walk away
Please give me a reason
Don't be that cruel
To leave me forever wondering what I did wrong

If you're going to walk away,
Please take away with you all those tears I will be shedding
Take away with you the pain and
Take the memories with you as well
233 · Feb 2016
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

Two Sides of Love

Love can be warm rays of sunlight shining over you,
But don't forget that love can also turn into a raging hurricane.

Many more moons will shine...
Don't let one yesterday spoil your tomorrows.

But he makes my heart beat faster

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

I saw him telling jokes and making people laugh
His kindness couldn't be captured by any photograph
His happiness was so big, anyone was able to see
No one knew how truly marvelous he was, except me

His stare provides such warmth, his eyes are filled with care
The best feauture on him is that smile he daily wears
And now instead of feeling my heart beating out of my chest
I feel warm all over; all my love in him I'd invest

Outside My Home
Caroline E Nov 2015
The world outside my home is an ugly place.
People call me names
People bully me
People just hate me
And I don't know why.
What did I ever do to them that made them
feel such hate towards me?

Some days I come home with bruises on my knees
Or just simply with tears running down my face.
As much as I didn't want to face the horrors
that awaited me outside each day, I still did.

And now, each time I look at my scars from the past,
It reminds me of the brave and invincible person I am
today.

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.
224 · Jan 2016
Indecisive
Caroline E Jan 2016
I love you
I don't need you
My heart can't seem to decide
My mind can't seem abide to one side
Love is a confusing, devastating, beautiful ride

Yin and Yang
Caroline E Aug 2016
She saw darkness
He saw the stars
When she could only see the ground
He only saw the sky
When she saw nothing but black and white
He only saw vivid colors
When she saw the gray clouds
He could only see the sun behind it all.

Realists and idealists are like yin and yang...
A perfect balance.
Realists and idealists need each other. Without idealists, the realists will never dare to dream. And without the realists, idealists will make their dreams get out of hand.

Smoke and Mirrors
Caroline E Mar 2016
Oh, just look at me
So sad and fragile and weak
From not being able to have a chance with you
But now it's like I can see through...

All the beauty I thought you were supposed to be
Has turned into something too hideous for me to see
I can finally let go of this weight that's been hanging over me
218 · Feb 2016

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.

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.

Terrified
Caroline E Nov 2016
While the rest fear death,
I am afraid of life.
