Tinder
Chaundra Oct 2018
Tinder is like an addiction
We’re swiping right
And swiping left
Every morning
Based all on looks
Looking for a man for the night
Or maybe just to be told you’re beautiful

The end ?
Chaundra Jul 2018
I hope you find a strand of my hair in your bed
And thoughts of me flutter your mind
I want to end things with you
But I can’t bare to feel lonely again
You’ve come to fill a void space in my heart
But I can’t bare to confess my feelings for you
You told me you just want things to be casual
But I don’t think I can do this to myself anymore

Him
Chaundra Jul 2018
Him
Sometimes I forget you have feelings
As harsh as that sounds
How do you go from a night of fun
To a stranger at dawn
I go along
Night after night
Waiting for you
To slip up
And finally confess
You have feelings for me,
Too.

Bubble People
Chaundra Jun 2018
People are like bubbles
Bottled up with troubles
Protected by a little container
Until they come face to face with their struggles
When they face their struggles  
Their bubble may crumble
This causes people to stumble
Stumble upon their troubles
They have a choice to pop
Or think non stop
They shouldn’t give up
Not until they float to the top

When Midnight Arrives
Chaundra Jun 2018
Oh, where did I go wrong ?
Lying in a bed
With a stranger
Who doesn’t even know my last name
What has happened ?
To the innocent teen I once was
I could sit here and write poetry
About a stranger whom I find myself with
Night after night
Knowing he has no intention of loving me
He is only here to **** me  
Oh what have I become ?
My feelings used to overwhelm
I am now just numb

Mr. Blue Eyes
Chaundra May 2018
The summer sun smiled softly across his face
I stare into his glistening blue eyes
Dawns light pours through his blinds
I love the moment when his eyes close
His lips open in slow motion

:(
Chaundra May 2018
:(
The feeling of your lips on mine
Sends electric shocks through me
I wonder if a girl like me
Knows what love is ?
He starts to touch my skin
My body tenses as my mind says no
My words says otherwise
Breathing gets harder and faster
Its sad we haven’t spoken in months
I’ve given you everything
That I could give you
Yet it’s still not enough

You
Chaundra Apr 2018
You
Ever since you’ve been gone
Everything reminds me of you
Thoughts of you flutter my mind
Your perfect face haunts me
In my dreams
Do you ever think of me ?

Like A Movie
Chaundra Apr 2018
Cruising in your car
Windows down
Wind in our face
All I wanted was to be friends

Now
I’m high off your love
I don’t want to come down
I want to be with you
Until you have to leave me,
Again

The doorway
Chaundra Apr 2018
The words you told
Made me feel bold
Now I’m alone
“Please don’t go”
You’re already halfway out the door

You and I
Chaundra Apr 2018
You
and
I
We’re drastically different
To be in love
With you, someone who is half in love with me
This is a ****** up game
Of feelings and heartbreak

You Don’t Know
Chaundra Apr 2018
You don’t know
What it’s like
To fall
          in
              love
                   with you
You don’t know
What it’s like
To hold on to you
                    while you push me away  
                
You don’t know
What it’s like
To constantly glace at my phone
                Waiting for your name to pop up
                                                     But it never does  
You don’t know
What it’s like
To have to let you go ...
                You’re like the tide
                      come and go when it’s  convenient  
                                            Fo­r you.

At Night
Chaundra Apr 2018
When midnight comes along
I’m your midnight text
The ***** things running through your mind
When you’re lonely
And attempting to forget

Thorns
Chaundra Apr 2018
Falling for him was the worst thing
I could’ve done
While I landed on a bed of
Rose pedals
I was oblivious
To the thorns underneath

Remembering
Chaundra Apr 2018
A fading smell of your cologne
Lost on one of my many empty pillows
The stray short brown hair
Left on my sweater I wore
Stranded
Alone lying there
Like me on this lonely evening

Wiskey
Chaundra Apr 2018
I couldn’t begin to count, the countless memories I’ve lost with each pour of the whiskey bottle

Everyone disintegrating from a sip of substance A mind washed away from a forever empty glass
A fading hint of cologne lost on an empty pillow
I suddenly remember, all that you were

FWB
Chaundra Apr 2018
FWB
This isn’t want I wanted
I just want you
I want to love you
I just simply cannot
But I go along
For the adventures
For the poetry
For sweet nothings whispered
By you, a stranger

Broken Promise
Chaundra Apr 2018
I made a promise to myself
That I wouldn’t allow myself
To be your second choice
A tool to cure your loneliness  
but yet I find myself
on this lonely evening
In your bed
once again
I was just an object to him

The Park
Chaundra Apr 2018
I go back to the park
Where we met, as strangers
I sit on the wooden bench
Where you cuddled me
Thoughts of that foggy night
Suddenly cross my mind
I feel numb
I could still taste you on my tongue

— The End —
