Cherry Cupcake: Poems

Cherry Cupcake May 2013

We can't seem to communicate like a normal pair
Arguing, yelling, ignoring each other
How am I supposed to believe you even care
While our once innocent love slowly threatens to smother

Blaming others for your own cruel deeds
Forgetting the rainbows we have been through
Neglecting your wife and children's needs
It's all black and white now, no color seems true

Daddy's yelling, mommy cries
Something about money and lies
Tomorrow is their 20th aniversary
What magic could she buy to make her parents happy?
To see their smiles again at dinner time
To hear them ask if she's doing fine

She grabs a sheet of snow white paper
Her pencils and some glitters
Draws a rainbow and a light pink lily
All they need is some color in this family

Family Party

Cherry Cupcake May 2013

Family Party

See them sitting there togethere
Like the knights of king Arthure
They look so happy, smiling, laughing
I'm no longer a child, the masks are falling

Oh how I'd love to break the game
Shout out loud: you're all so fake
talking behind backs before you came
drowning yourselves in hypocrisy's lake

Make peace now or leave my house
I don't need any more hatred around
fighting inside like cat and mouse
acting normal, laughing loud

Or you talk now and make peace
Or you don't, honestly I don't care
trying with you is like talking to trees
I'd love to shout that, as I lower my stare
They know that I know, they think I won't dare
It's not like that, I'm perfectly able
I just got attracted by the cake on the table

Later, maybe..

My heart lives again!

Cherry Cupcake Jun 2013

My heart lives again!

I fought with the courage You gave me
With the sword of humility on the horse of faith
I fought for who You finally made me be
You filled me with patience and protected me from hate

You gave me all I have and always heard my prayers
Only You know when the right moment comes to make them come true
You bestowed upon me freedom in shining layers
Hope and faith as I served only You

For a long time I don't understand what hit me
It seems I listened to their whispers and thought I could live away
Without the daily connection with You, but not too deep inside I knew they put me astray

Today after all those months of darkness, emptiness and despair
I realize it's time for my clouded heart to be fair

Finding back the faith You sent on me in the pure past
As I pray my daily prayer in gratitude for You
It seems my heart can feel again, I feel alive at last
Tears begin to flow as I understand what's left to do

My face had lost its light and my heart ached because I forgot
That my only true dream and purpose is to serve You, God.

Y.

During the prayer of the night
From a heart filled back with light. <3

New Shoes

New Shoes

I need a pair of new shoes
They told me shoes show ones personality
I got no time to lose
Trying to walk to a store, feet pulled by gravity

Shall I buy a new pair or just borrow one?
Not sure I could share shoes with someone
See I'd love to be in your shoes one day
Knowing you're also walking around feeling down
Looking for someone to whom you'd give your shoes away
But for the moment being I don't fit in my own

Messy, drafty!

The Classmate

The Classmate

Summer scents and summer heat
Teenagers' laughter and water flying
Dripping heads and shoeless feet
Trees wear flowers and the sun is shining

To him the day's grey and there's too much noise
Smothered in his black shirt he's ignored by other boys
Saved by the bell, he joins the row some teacher leads
While a group of pupils talks, two girls argue and one reads

At his usual seat he takes his usual things
Acting like he's writing while he's finishing some drawings
Yet his mind slips away to something near
Someone's stare makes his concentration disappear

Frustrated his eyes find her silent stare
When the teacher turns his back, she leaves her desk in one, two, three
Unbalanced he acts like he doesn't care
He could just pretend like he didn't see

Next to him she takes place
The seat astonished by the company
Her hands slowly reach his face
And before he knows his vision gets blurry

Still wondering what's going on, the poor boy has no clue
Until she whispers- with his glasses on:
Now I see the world like you.

Today

Today

My dear friend and diary
Today was awful according to me
My heart tells me I love him, you see
But my head always seems to disagree

To him I must be invisible
A burden, mostly miserable
undesirable, and I'm unable
To put my feelings on the table

Oh, dear diary, dear friend
Countless minutes did I spend
In front of that old mirror of mine
The poor reflection didn't whine
But showed me how fat I am instead
What do I do? I have a date!

Dear, oh dear secret-keeper
I can't seem to make him forget her
Is it unfair to want him still?
Is it unfair to feel these chills
Whenever he is around even though...
He doesn't love her. I'm sure, I know

My dear and lovely diary
My reflection seems to be teasing me
It tells me to stop trying to be
Like the beautiful girls I always see
Shall I give up? Let her break free?
I think I should fight.. Do you agree?

Dear diary, you're my best friend
But today I'm lost in my own head
I fear our encounter comes to an end
Today I leave you under my bed
Until I find myself again
I need to know who I really am
I can not tell you where and when
But dearest friend, we'll meet again.

Who said Juliet and Romeo were dead?

Cherry Cupcake Jun 2013

Who said Juliet and Romeo were dead?

Who said Juliet and Romeo were dead?
Loving is easier done than said
While suicide is easier wished than done
Correct me please, if you judge me wrong

Ro and I will die of a natural death
Whereafter our story will be widely spread
Teenagers, men and women in tears
Relating with depth to our greatest fears

I'll be their example and he'll be their dream
Their hero increasing their love-esteem
Chasing away the doubts and clouds
Leaving their hearts singing loud and proud
Love is to be lived
Life is to be loved

Distance can't separate our connected chests
Sencerely, Shakespeare, you were one of the best
But declaring us dead was your hugest flaw
For no corner of the globe will be spared of our law.

-Love-
Juliet.
