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
Dianali Oct 2021
You were lucky enough
To be in my sight
When the stars alligned
When my heart was warm

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
Dianali Oct 2021
The scenario in my mind is set,
I’m just too afraid
To say
“action”

“But the hurt is years-  and tears away”
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”

Recovery
Dianali Sep 2021
I took all the love I gave to you
And used it for myself

Free
Dianali Sep 2021
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”

Trapped
Dianali Sep 2021
My mind is full with conversations,
Yet it’s all so quiet
Sep 2021 · 479
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
Sep 2021 · 469
Edit
Dianali Sep 2021
You were never that good,

I put some filter for your soul,

I made you up inside my mind.

Ready
Dianali Aug 2021
I got the frames,
not the pictures.
Got a whole life, just waiting
For its beginning.

Empty
Dianali Aug 2021
Well, she had given her soul away before,
Of course she was soulless.

Parallels
Dianali Aug 2021
Micro universes:
You, there
Me, here
Worlds, we’ll never get to see.
Words, we’ll never get to hear.

Sketch
Dianali Aug 2021
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.

Flawed
Dianali Aug 2021
I wanted to love you so bad
I was so inspired!
It was better in my mind, I guess
I messed up.

Consequences
Dianali Aug 2021
After you used my body
My soul was tired
After you put a light in my eye
There was a fire

Somewhere
Dianali Aug 2021
You can’t break me,
there’s always a dream
I’m chasing

I’m done playing this game
Against myself
It’s about time I meet
A worthy rival

I can hear your thoughts,
they dont let me sleep.

Dianali Aug 2021
All that love flowing through my veins
got me sick to my stomach
I’m disgusted by how much
I loved you.

Riflessi
Dianali Jul 2021
Seduta su questa scala
Guardando il mare
Mi ricorda il momento
In cui ** trovato
il percorso corretto
Di andare
Mille notti di piacere
effimero
sono stati per te
il mio tempo prezioso
perso in te
Effimero
Come sei
e come per me
È adesso, gia
Il amore che avevo
tanti anni fa

Numb
Dianali Jul 2021
This numbness of the heart
Has been here for a long time
Couldn’t realise that ignoring it
would contribute to made it last.

Check, mate
Dianali Jul 2021
You thought  I was playing victim, but for me, it was never a game
Jul 2021 · 293
Disposable
Dianali Jul 2021
Thorns disguised in your arms,
Where I let my trust slowly unwind.
A trap, a maze,
Pure evil in your gaze.

I was disposable.
But how could I tell?
Intertwined, passing the days.
You were patient, you set the pace.
And when you had to,
didn’t hesitate,
dug my grave.

End of the tunnel
Dianali Jul 2021
Walking blindly into the path of happiness,
it’s been a long time since I’ve followed it,
This time I’m not watching my steps.

Why do I see love everywhere I go?
Why do I seek love everywhere I go?

Safe space
Dianali Jun 2021
It was chaotic, the beating of my heart
At the bare, minimum, touch of your hand
I was at ease, and under attack
Resting my thoughts on your lap

Night terrors
Dianali Jun 2021
Sometimes I suddenly wake
Scared, anxious, nervous
Flooded with memories
Of a familiar stranger
And the scariest part
is this image, of myself,
so vulnerable, so happy

next to him.

Art
Dianali Jun 2021
Art
You  added colour to my mess
and me like a painting
you weren’t quite happy with
The egotistical artist in you
thought could paint over

I was ruined forever
Is not a masterpiece, I know
Jun 2021 · 410
Invasive
Dianali Jun 2021
Wild and twisted
The roots of your caring
Managed to stay in my heart.
I tried to **** them,
But they grew back

Unreachable
Dianali Jun 2021
I want nothing to do with you.
I am comfortable in the memories,
safe, knowing I made it through.
Aware of the outcome.
Dealing with the consequences—
Of the bittersweet experience,
The terrible rollercoaster,
Of your intermittent affection.

Unconditional
Dianali May 2021
It sickens me
How it occupied a part of my reason
The way I detailed a map of your heart
In exchange of
A sugarcoated rusty knife in my back
May 2021 · 508
Honesty
Dianali May 2021
Have my words annoyed you?
Then they have succeeded
Things took a wrong turn
But you were the one manoeuvring
Sorry I called you out
Guess love is not that blind

Scar
Dianali May 2021
Perhaps all your exes do better after you for a reason
Perhaps my words are aimed to hurt
                                      
                          You.

And now that I know they could,
I wouldn’t  mind if they do.
Cause perhaps I am still sour,
From the taste of your love
And its deep, light-consuming
hole in my soul.
May 2021 · 360
Earworm
Dianali May 2021
You are like a song
              forever
                        Stuck in my head

Convalescent
Dianali May 2021
I remember the last time I walked to your house,
in my headphones, a song by the cure
‘The cure’.. A bit ironic, I thought
Cause I was so sick
So, so, sick,
of loving
you.

Another ending
Dianali Apr 2021
Can you imagine all the conversations we could’ve had?
All the songs we could’ve sung?

Once again,
I’m sharing a life
With a past dream

Seaside
Dianali Apr 2021
Oh you come to my mind
In waves
And I want to drown
But my instinct makes me swim
Makes me survive
And when I reach the shore
I am safe
And grateful.

Comfortable
Dianali Apr 2021
I made a nest in my wounds
Please don’t cure me,
I don’t want to be cured.

Ghostly
Dianali Mar 2021
You are a ghost
But, oh, how I fancy you to scare me
Trapped in the past,
No other words casts.
If I have to be haunted,
Let it be you,
Let it be now.

Waltz
Dianali Mar 2021
I’ll imagine
I’m sending you a song
That I know
You’d love.
And in my head
we are dancing
to the rhythm
Of our once treasured
Now forgotten, bitter,
Love.
