he said to meet him
then left without saying where

poetry at 2:47am
Julia Elise Jun 2015
The likeliness of it being any good is slim.
Yet entirely possible.
The deepest thoughts come out in the dead of night.
Things you are most concerned about.
Your last thoughts of the day.
Late night or early morning poetry may not be very good.
But it is raw.
Being not completely aware brings out the real you.

monster
Julia Elise Oct 2015
The monster was here
then went away
he left her for good?
she begged him to stay

With her now pathetic sobs
She cried “Don’t leave me”
maybe he’d change his mind
Maybe now he could see

But has it returned?
it looks right over her
welcomed like an old friend
back is the monster

“i’ve missed you so” she said
as he took her hand
“but i was here all along”
she did not understand

could he be her hero
a monster not scary at all
back is the monster
right here when she calls
just a little poem i threw together to help a friend with an assignment :)

Go Away
Julia Elise Apr 2015
I wish you were gone
But you couldn't be closer
You are haunting me.

not for you
Julia Elise Mar 2016
you coward - tell me to my face
"I loved you with everything I had"
thoughts of you corrode my brain
the vines slither and grow; the overgrowth over takes my mind
your name taste like acid
your apologies leave five lines burning red across my cheek
sorry - Sorry - SORRY
are you?
memories of that word run marathons through a looking glass
I cry looking at my reflection
remembering your fingers on my skin
flashbacks of that touch make my body temperature plummet -
you were the best and the worst - at the same time.
and you come crawling back like the greens in my head
trying for who we were to return like the undead
salty sobs spill from my sparkling eyes
crying tears of wishing not to miss you
forgiveness hangs by her nails on the tip of my tongue
waiting to fall into your grasp
your claws pawing at her dangling feet
but she won't fall for you
not again

You did not...
Julia Elise Aug 2015
You did not complete me, you destroyed me.

You did not help me, you watched me struggle.

You did not trust me, you doubted me.

You did not believe in me, you broke me down.

You did not hold me, you pushed me away.

You did not care for me, you put up with me.

You did not love me, you lusted after me.

Too much of a woman
Julia Elise Apr 2015
think about it,
don't let yourself go.
you are you.
think highly of yourself,
stay away from those who hurt you.
the biggest mistake you could ever make
is bringing yourself down so somebody can reach you.
you are worth every strain, every step
let them come to you.
you are never too much of a woman
for somebody who is not man enough for you.
never apologize for being too good,
let them work to deserve you.

Julia Elise Apr 2015
It comes back in flashes,
a faded memory.
I don't want it there,
Squeeze my eyes shut but...
I can see it when I close my eyes,
like it's happening all over again
It plays over and over,
I can't stop it.
Isn't it funny...
Your wildest dreams could become your worst nightmare?

163 pages in our book
all empty but 2
filled with words you cried to me
everything spoken true
the first one says
I love you
the last reads
I love her too
thinking about the last time I saw you.

see him
again?
been long
since then

one time
a year
he looks
a tear

we say
"goodbye"
my eyes
they cry

lean in
arms strong
moment
has gone

— The End —
