Ours
Dianali Mar 2022
You don't have to search anymore
It’s okay, I’ll be your company
As we’ll be dreaming under different skies
Cloud nine resting , still, we can settle,
My embrace will be your home,
Your eyes will ground me
This feeling, our only battle

Entry #95
Dianali Mar 2022
I’m selfish, I know
I’m stubborn, which, may be worse
I overshare… just not enough
I tend to ignore the facts that may be relevant
I’m amusing, yet I can make you sad
You’ll always want to know more,
you’ll never can
Poetry writes itself, doesn’t it?
Now I’m here, stuck,
with the image you want for me
no makeup will cover the fact that
I am still sad about it
No poem will soothe me enough
To ever forget about it

Future, Bright
Dianali Mar 2022
Every now and then I remember
My willingness in the floor
The coldest shoulder,
The cruelest heartache.
A bittersweet reminder
That eventually,
life becomes way kinder
I can see now

Sinking
Dianali Feb 2022
Mid-youth crisis,
   Lovely pictures of your exes

.. getting married.

You are wrecked,
Aren’t you?

25’s birthday eve
I thought back then
You’d be here

Stuck
Dianali Feb 2022
I linger..
I’d love to remain
in the happiest minute of life,
yet I know..
Being afraid won’t take you far

Heart-Locksmith
Dianali Feb 2022
Holder of all keys
Of every soul you meet
you bear in your talk,
the most sweet, agile dance
Glance-stealer,
Maker of tears,
Locksmith of hearts
Yeah, You never knock on doors
Because they know..As I now
they shouldn’t let you in,
But show you the way out
It felt forced

Cósmica
Dianali Feb 2022
La galaxia de la que fue parte, colapsó
Con fuerza de mil soles,
cual supernova
Resurgió
Donde el viento sople, ella ira
Creando micro universos,
Al saludar

amoroso errante
Dianali Feb 2022
De habitación en habitación va,
Inestable, ambiguo, vacío.
Sin alma, sin sed,
sin errar, sin perder
¿Qué queda en su insaciable piel?
No lo sé
Poco menos de un hombre,
Tal vez

Risas empolvadas
Dianali Jan 2022
Que inmensas son
aquellas melancolías
Llenas de quizás— reales, tal vez,
Solo en alguna otra realidad.

Apology
Dianali Jan 2022
Like knocking on a door
Of a house in ruins
You can come,
But not a soul will let you in
There’s nothing here for you
There hasn’t, a long time since.
Pointless

What does it feel to know
I’ll never be your summer-heart
That our souls will never feel the heat
Of our palms, intertwined

Big Bang
Dianali Jan 2022
I guess it was, sort of — dramatic
Now, thinking about it
It just resembles the beginning—
Let me put it this way:
If we hadn’t collide,
—you and I—
Our universes
wouldn’t be complete.
But romantically— you know?

Favourite Dress
Dianali Dec 2021
I took care of it,
I wore it, - but just -on special occasions
No matter how little,
I cleaned every stain of it
I packed it so carefully
That I forgot I even had it.
Then the flood came,
And the mould grew,
I found it in my suitcase
Completely ruined.
And then I remembered
Why it was so special
I wore it the first night
I ever met you

Happy-less
Dianali Dec 2021
You have never suffered of matters of the heart,      nor you ever will,  
your pain lays in your mind,    
in your non-existent calm

Band-aid
Dianali Dec 2021
I remember
every one of your lovely whispers
when you thought I was dreaming
My mind, my hair, my nose
I was perfect, every bit. To you.

You, protecting me at all costs
I couldn’t bare such tender
I radiated all the love you gave me
Sad it was never permanent
I wasn’t dreaming, real life was better

“So you are into words” he said
“That doesn’t make you interesting, I’ll cut the chase”
I think of that for every poem I write
For every lyric of every song that gets to my heart

Immunity
Dianali Nov 2021
All the poison micro-dosed
In the form of your affection,
Thoughts of your laughter
Circulating in my veins
Relieved now I can gladly state
All of it, has finally left
My spirit and flesh

Rom- Com
Dianali Nov 2021
I was so profoundly moved by the words
you managed to produce
In that beautifully-crafted mind of yours
They may as well been scripted
To just my personal delight

If I were to follow the plot line
Will the ending be happy ? Will it be sad?
The only thing I can predict by now:
My heart at your reach,
My soul in your hands

Loser
Dianali Nov 2021
I guess I’m not a ‘good sport’
Yours is the only game I’ve truly lost
Yes, I didn’t take it well,
My personal, favourite hell
The rage, the pain, all still there
I wish I could say
“I wish you farewell”

26
Isn’t this the age
When we have
A lot of plants,
A bunch of plans
Little money
and even less time?
Roaring 20s, aren’t they?

Pain
Dianali Nov 2021
I’m trying so hard to keep it inside
It’s in the surface of my heart
I can’t scratch it
It’s spreading
And then it overflows
It’s overwhelming
It slides down my face
Salty watery trace
I’ll be okay
Just not today

Timing

You were lucky enough
To be in my sight
When the stars alligned
When my heart was warm

Shade
Dianali Oct 2021
Am I to blame?
That you are too gray?
Too plain?

Is your poisonous tongue
gonna mock me, again?
Is that your best move?
Is that all you care?

Almost
Dianali Oct 2021
You found your way into my mind
Now I randomly text you
at 2 am
and you are okay with that,
slowly melting my stance.
You’re dangerously getting closer
To my heart.

Daydream

The scenario in my mind is set,
I’m just too afraid
To say
“action”

Just remember:
Wounds in the soul are deeper than they appear.

Irrelevant
Dianali Sep 2021
Why would I care for your situation?
My oppressor, my tormentor
Make no mistake,
If I’m ever curious about your sake,
I’ll be at the verge of losing all
My so-called “common sense”

Your name on my screen.
I forgot how it feels,
I lost my voice
I almost couldn’t breathe
But It wasn’t the same pain
It was some sort of relief
As I open up your message
and press the word “delete”

Yet it’s all so quiet

Secret
Dianali Sep 2021
The room is quiet,
No one is near,
Your sneaky hand
Makes its way to me;
my flesh, my soul
Shivering
To the expert dance
of your  fingertips

You were never that good,

I put some filter for your soul,

I made you up inside my mind.

Got a whole life, just waiting
For its beginning.

Well, she had given her soul away before,
Of course she was soulless.

He was just a draft,
Yes, a really good one,
But still, a draft.
What can I say?
I want the real thing,
I wasn’t settling for that.

I was so inspired!
It was better in my mind, I guess

After you used my body
My soul was tired
After you put a light in my eye
There was a fire

Against myself
It’s about time I meet
A worthy rival
