Sadness - Hello Poetry

Angelica Tanaquin

Sometimes I just lay down.
In my bed.
Lights off and silence.
And I close my eyes and think about you.
I think of everything from the first time we began.
To the smallest details that hang on every strand of my memory.
No matter how much I want to hate and forget it all.
My guard always falls.
The memories flow in like a river of endless water.
There's no drainage that can control this mess.
Every time I see you I think about you more.
I guess I'm angered by the memories because I don't think your mind does the same for me
And it *****! It really *****!
Because I'm stuck.
Stuck to memories that were just that.
Now I'm ashamed cause you don't think the same.
Cause your smile still makes my day.
And cause you just won't go away.

Escape For A While

There are those days
That I just want to disappear
Hidden in a place
Wherein I can shed all my tears;
A place where I do not have to pretend
That I am happy and worryfree.
I am tired of going through each day
Plastering a fake smile on my face
Telling everyone that I am okay
Coz deep inside this heart of mine
I am screaming for help,
I am dying of loneliness,
I am longing for love and happiness;
But no one can hear my heart's plead.
I want a place for an escape
Where I can release everything that burdens my life
To renew my strength again.
I want an escape from this life
Even just for a while.

Amira I

walk away

It's 3.15
I'm wide awake.
Thinking about one person.
That I love the most.
But hurts me the most.
I want to shut my eyes.
I want to sleep;
forever.
Because I don't wanna wake up
tomorrow morning
Without your smile.
I' m sorry I walked away.
It hurts me the way it hurts you.

I want to breathe you in

Do you feel me in the wind?
Because I feel you.

I want to feel your arms around me again
The heat of your skin against mine
The way I can feel your heartbeat in your chest

I wish you would see me when the sunlight plays with the colors of daisies
Can I at least pretend you do?

I want your lips gently pressed on mine
I want to hear your laugh again
I want to breathe in your heavenly smell and forever get lost it
I want to see the way your eyes light up with fire when you look at me

But I can't

Because you're gone

Do you feel me in the wind?
Because I feel you.

Open Heart/Broken Heart

My eyes were open

you saw me, told me I was beautiful
and you'd never stop admiring me

My arms were open

you held me, so gently but so tight
and swore you'd never let me go

My mouth was open

you kissed it so beautifully hard
I lost my breath, and mind, over you

My heart was open

you loved it, caressed it, stole it
saying you'd treasure it always

◆

My eyes are closed

they always are now
yet I still see visions of you

My arms are now closed

I hold myself together
until I decide to fall apart

My mouth is closed

the only words that can leave it
are 'I love you' but you're not here

My heart is closed,

I imagine, as I have not seen it
and I'm sure I never will again

Pain

It's described as suffering
Distress.
Some people don't know what it means
To feel pain.
Its not a graze on the knee
Or a broken arm.
Pain is . . .
Well, it's much more than that.
It's when you hurt so much that it's impossible to stand.
When you can't talk without
People hearing your voice tremble
Or seeing your lips quiver.
I'm in pain.
Because I loved him.
I loved him.
I did, and now he's gone.
And I hurt,
I hurt more than I thought it was possible to hurt.
This is true pain.

Sweet Serendipity

Jumbled 2 a.m thoughts

I'm laying down and facing the ceiling of my bedroom. I stare with a blank state apparent in my eyes and it feels like the walls are closing in on me. The room is getting smaller and I'm playing your favorite song on the radio. The lyrics are flooding my veins and the room is getting smaller. I feel like I'm suffocating with your presence even though it's lacking beside me. I keep playing your favorite song and I continue to stare up at this stupid insipid ceiling that's doing my thoughts no good. The walls are finally caving in on me and my heart is cracking. You have finally accomplished what you've been trying to do all along, you have broken me to the point of no return. I will forever be a dusted pile of passion, love and regret beneath your feet.

Pushing Daisies

Flowering

How could I forget,
The timid flower buds,
That bloom late spring,
And fill the plain meadows,
With a vibrancy of colour.

How could I forget,
To pluck one wilting stem,
From the blackest earth,
And keep it trapped,
Between my thumb,
And forefinger.

How could I forget,
To tear off the fragile petals,
And sing to myself,
As if I was still a child,
A song that allowed,
Not even fractured belief.

How could I forget,
*He loves me not.

Before & Now

Before when I called you,
You would answer with,
"Hi beautiful."
Now you answer with,
"What?"
Before you would end the call with,
"I love you more than anything."
Now you end it with,
"I gotta go."
Before you would write me love letters.
Now you don't even call me back.
I need a lot of super glue so I can glue our love back.
Because this love, is corrupting...

~Only for you

I shall never admit
that all of my breaths
and heartbeats
are meant
only for you

I shall never admit
that all of my stars
and galaxies
I've saved
only for you

I shall never admit
that I've spent sleepless nights
leaving my whispers and tears
on my pillow
only for you

I shall never admit
that I was often speechless
while my knees, so restless,
buckled
only for you

I shall never admit
that for days I dreamed awake
and countless verses
I made
only for you

I shall never admit
that I will write, eternally
that this heart will bleed, internally
hopelessly
only for you
*my love

And I shall never admit any of these things, especially not to you.
