Just because I don't talk about how I feel  
Does not mean I don't care
There's a lot more behind this solid blank stare
I have what you call resting ***** face
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
Huddling in the corner with my phone
Waiting for it to charge before Olivia gets home.
One of my sisters won't let me use her charger so my youngest sister and I came up with this.
Chloe Zafonte Nov 2017
My sweet little son
You are quite an active one
I feel your small feet kick inside me
Every night when I sleep, every morning after I eat.
Completely unexpected but such a treat. I wait for you to grow and enter this earth, just 4 months until your birth. Waiting to see who the little human I created will be.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I listen to the rain fall upon the roof
As I lay in bed
With a tiny little dog attempting to
Sleep on my head
Most people's dogs like to sleep on laps
However mine has a different idea

Narcissistic is not just a toxic relationship with your boyfriend of one year. It can be a parent, a friend, a cousin or someone you love, dear.

  It's when they give up their own responsibilities to depend on you for money, childcare or a ride in the car. If you confront them. Your luck won't go very far.

  You'll belittle you over one little mistake like not washing a dish or leaving a crumb on the table. Restrict you from friends, lovers, family because they're you're parent, partner or whatever it is the label.

   You'll be made to feel unworthy and treated like trash. Take pride in authority as you become their slave. Every peer will be brought up to hate you and you'll be the highlight to bash.  

  You'll be trapped, items will be stolen from you, they'll hurt your children, you will be framed and blamed for what you didn't do. Call the police, tell a friend or relative. But no one will believe it because they've manipulated everyone but you!

  A pretty face or kind demeanor is the who they appear. Your peers will becoming sheep to their lies with words such as " I'm a person of God" and many hoaxed stories to tell. Cross them, your life will become the fifth layer of hell.

  When confronted they fabricate it with lies such as " I do this for you" when you get no benefit from the deed. You can argue with them all day, but refuse to take heed.

  They will monitor your activities, making you feel like a juvenile. "You can't use this no longer" and send you miles away to do so. You'll never be good enough for their home. Wait for an escape for quite a while.

  You can bend over backwards for this said person and nothing will be good enough. Clean their home! Give them money, drive them to work, love them with soul. Their hatred for you never grow old.

  You are nothing but an object. You are free ***, an ATM, a chance to get drunk or high, or a tax return. You'll be nothing but inheritance or sympathy when or if you die.

    When you finally escape this slavery. You will have scars, passing the neighborhood where it happened, hearing their name in a conversation, or coming across something they gave you long ago. If anything, celebrate your bravery!

  You escaped such a harsh time, you stood up for yourself when it cost everything. You are living life without the person you thought you'd die without. You are a warrior without a doubt.
For the men and women who've put up with a parent, friend, partner or authority they made your life hell. If you are no longer in that situation I'm proud of you.

The world turns to gray as dearest memories never fade away.
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2017
They ask you why you speak less just to tell you to shut up. Wonder why you eat less after they call you fat. Call you a loner while shutting you inside the house. Insult the work you do then complain that you do nothing for them. No one can live two different ways so make up your mind and let people live.
Chloe Zafonte Jul 2017
They say my life is over, I think it has just begun, needing to prepare for my little one.
I just found out that I'm pregnant.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
A new year can't change bad memories,but it can change your attitude towards them by not letting them hold you back
Happy new year everyone, sorry for not being on much my wifi is out at home.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2017
If I gave you earth, you'd pollute it.
If I gave you the ocean you'd freeze it
If I gave you land you'd plow through it.
Just how I give you love and you neglect it.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I'm not afraid to be alone
Just as I don't feel afraid to be with you
Chloe Zafonte Sep 2016
Who are you to tell us how we think? You are not capable of reading our thoughts. That's you  projecting your self hate onto us.
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
Placing your problems in a stranger's hands is like handing them garbage, they'll do the ethical thing and throw it away. Because you need to learn to handle your issues on your own.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
I thought I could trust you because I knew you long enough, but it turns out you were just like the others, cheating, lying and emotionally putting me in handcuffs.
I really have trust issues, and when I thought I could bring someone out of the friend zone he was no different, he was worse .
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
They say
Never give up
But some things just aren't worth
The fuss
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I don't know if I am happy or in
Pain, I'm a zombie who limps and groans
Down memory lane. I feel as if my insides have evaporated from bottles of *** as I
Spend my days feeling completely
Numb
Chloe Zafonte Jun 2016
Memories are like an object that someone left behind. You have the choice to either throw it away, burn it or place it on a shelf to look at every now and again but please don't hold onto it forever.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
After all I've done
This is how you repay?
By doing the one thing to make
Me go away?
It sinks in, hurting more and more
Each day
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2017
In my eyes you had potential, but to you I was nothing more than a phone number and an option to bypass. Like a little bird, I let you go but you never came back.
Chloe Zafonte Aug 2016
I look in the mirror and I see an older face, a thinner body and different hair. But the same emotions stay in place as I try not to care.
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
One day you'll wake up and whatever is hurting you now won't phase you any longer. Look forward to that coming day.
I read a lot of poems on here about heart break and I just wanted to say that it will be hard but you'll feel better when it hurts less.
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
There are many reasons why I don't sleep at night. But I lay in bed comfortably with gratitude that you're no longer in my life.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
The hardest part of this is that I always think to myself of how I'm supposed to replace someone who treated me like no one else ever has. Then I remind myself that it was all a lie and I have to try and pull through.
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
Restless nights are coming to an end, thoughts of you slowly fade, becoming me once again as I buid myself to become the person I intend.
Chloe Zafonte Jun 2016
People are ****** to death by being gay or transgender or for marrying someone who their  parents did not arrange for them to marry. Girls are sold into *** slavery or worse forced to be submissive to their ****** or to be married to them.  Men, women  are killed for being Christians or are in hiding from their prosecutors. Children live on the streets eating garbage trying to provide for their youngest sibling because their parents had died. people  die every day by speaking out against something they believe in, you have the opportunity for free speech. Tell me how the government doesn't provide enough for you, how mistreated you are by men. You think you're so "oppressed" look at the world around you.
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2016
Some think that they fill your lungs with air.
Just to watch you breathe out  misery and despair.
People think that you can't live without them even if they make you miserable.
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2017
Being a bully in today's world is not someone who harasses you. It is those who tell the truth. Our generation is so coddled, preventing people from being hurt. Surrounding yourself with fake friends while your parents are too scared to say anything as well. Living in your own world is all fun and games, until someone comes along and is honest. Then it falls apart. Facts do not vanish when your emotions are on display.
Chloe Zafonte Jul 2016
Leave me alone with a pen and I can do many things like write a world of my own.
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
I have grown and time has flew
Three years have passed and I'm still afraid of you. I'm no longer a dumb teen but horrible memories still lie between. Abuse still hits me like a subway train, why it still haunts me from this day is something that will never be explained.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
If you play with another's feelings
You will find yourself bitter and alone
That is no one's fault, but your very own
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
Life's too short to surround yourself
with toxic people who live to ruin someone's day.
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
Nothing is perfect
The sun won't always shine
Not every poem will rhyme
You won't turn water into wine
But it will all make sense at the right time
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2018
They say if you're poor, your lazy. Tell that to the elderly working minimum wage jobs, yeah I know ****'s crazy. Get a Master's degree just to end up working at starbucks, needing experience to work a low level job. We can all strive for success were all just getting robbed. When in need of a place, you need to make 3 times the rent, when we're only paid 11.50 or less and they wonder why millions are sleeping in tents. College professors are eligible for food stamps, while their CEO is eating up their salary. If I had to paint a picture more clear, it would be in an art gallery. Helping the poor is being put on a 4 year waiting list, government aid you can hardly live off of while the rest are just praying the Lord above. Having to apply to live in a shelter for limited time for people who carry less than a dime. I can say no more. A simple solution, we could only wish for. Now it's just a fight to the top, to make your living situation as solid as a rock.
Chloe Zafonte Jul 2017
Drowsy all the time, my breast feel as if they have been punched, after my nap I'm going to consume my third lunch. People asking why aren't I married? Or what will I name this child I carry. Some frown upon me, most jump with glee, they're so lucky that they do not get up 5 times a night just to ***. I lay in my bed with mild cramps in my tummy, craving everything down to mayo and cheese yummy! Friends and family get annoyed with my hormones because I like to **** and moan. I constantly drink because my throat is dry as they ask me " how did you let this happen and why?" The answer to the question is that I am responsible for what I've done and there is no reason for me to cover it up and run.
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
I don't understand
Wouldn't the feeling eventually die?
I'll never see the benefits, was it for wit?
It must be fun wasting another's entire year,
I swear this will forever grind my gears.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
When people say forever they don't always mean it, these days promises are just said not from the heart.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Out of all the people who like you, you choose someone who isn't interested or has bad intentions towards you!
It's like deliberately jumping into a lake of crocodiles
When you can swim in a luxurious pool.
I'm not talking about anyone specifically just what I've seen people do
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2017
In life you're going to get dumped, cheated on, rejected, friend zoned and used. We don't live in a world full of rainbows and butterflies. People **** and that's just the way it is. Stop saying that you're "too scared to love" grow up, take risk and get over yourself. Life is going to offer struggles before you can receive something greater.
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2017
At one moment, my life was a rose. Crumbled in the hands of greed only to recover naturally as it grows beneath the weeds.
Chloe Zafonte Jun 2016
If you're not over your ex, don't get in a new relationship. If you just want *** and no commitment then say so! Are feeling uncomfortable with a person? Tell them! Honesty is the key to making everyone happy instead of wasting your and another's time with lies and false hopes. And forcing yourself into something you're clearly not ready for.
There's no hard feelings when someone's completely blunt with you.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
Don't live life looking forward to the end
Your fate is decided by you, not a Priest or Reverend.
I  grew up Catholic and was sent to a Christian school for high school and these people just scare everyone with hell and I can see why people turn away from religion. And if you don't believe in this kind of stuff I'm not rubbing it in your face just saying what I feel.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Don't misjudge me
Don't be scared
I just have a broken heart
Yet to be repaired
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2017
I don't deserve respect because I am a woman, I want respect for being a person. I am not entitled to my gender only to common sense.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2017
I'm a ghost
Unlike most, I have flesh and bones.
Alive and breathing but a roaming soul.
Trapped in darkness looking for the light that shines, only for a short period of time.
When I think I have all, I end up with none.
A never ending treadmill through hell until I find happiness again. Unsure if this metaphorical death is a curse or a problem leading to a solution of mine but the heavy bags on my back tell me I need to try. I cannot cry because it's embarrassing, I cannot scream because my mouth is taped by consequences. Stuck in hell with no fire but the burns of selfishness and torment from those who sent me here.
Chloe Zafonte Aug 2016
Everyone wants someone to look up to but sometimes we idolize the ones who look down upon us.
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
You are a rose
lightly drifting above the dark sea
So strange but fascinating to watch
Chloe Zafonte Sep 2018
It has been hard to let go you know. Brushing off everything like wind and snow. Even after all the drugs, and jail, thinking you'd come back to your old self. You slip my feet out from under the rug, and again you fail. Coming around trying to make me think you want to be a Dad, my bad! I thought wrong, you're a fake. On my own is where I belong, make up your mind for Christ sake! I'm Fred in a ****** Doo episode, uncovering your mask, you're an ******* all long. I was always there for you, never even had to ask, I gave you chances you didn't deserve, all you've ever done was kick us to the curb. I now say goodbye to you. Have fun in another city! I hope you regret your actions, that were nothing but ******.
Chloe Zafonte Jul 2016
They left you for a reason
They didn't see you for a lifetime
They saw you as a season
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
I've been told that I have a double life
I never really noticed but if that's the case
I see it as my own private paradise.
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I can see the sadness through people's eyes
As the pressures of society bring us tears
We cannot seem to dry.
