end
it has been wonderful
sharing this beautiful life with you
but as they say, all good things must come to an end


and i guess this is it
this is our 'end'
donna barba May 2015
you know what, ***** you! ***** you for being so arrogant and full of yourself, you don’t even get to see how much you hurt me! ***** you for not caring, ***** you for not running after me… ***** you for letting me leave. ***** you for making me feel this way.

you were the only person who mattered, but that don’t mean a thing now. not anymore. so ***** you.

***** you for making me want you so bad, for making me love you with all that I got. ***** you for making me laugh, ***** you for making cry. ***** you for bringing all these pain! ***** you for lying! ***** you for cheating! ***** you!

you came with the promise of forever, but that don’t mean a thing now. not anymore. so ***** you.

***** your eyes for being so beautiful…
***** you and your smile, **** it looks so wonderful…
***** your voice, ***** your laugh…
***** you, ***** you, ***** you!

***** you, ***** this!
***** you for the pain
***** you, will I ever get back up again?


and ***** me for loving you still.

I'm not saying that it's not gonna hurt
Because it does
It will
It will continue to hurt every single day
He will do things that will hurt
He will say things that will hurt
He will

But it's okay
It's a risk I am willing to take
It's a risk I am willing to embrace
I'd lay it all down
Give my best shot
Because I'm in love
Because I love
And knowing that it might work would have to be enough

Little One
donna barba Aug 2015
Lighten up, little one
Just because he can't see your beauty,
Doesn't mean you have none

Lighten up, little one
As the sun starts to set,
Keep in mind when the stars have met

Stand up and continue to dance
To the changing colors of the horizon,
To the sound of silence that's upon

Lighten up, little one
Remember what you deserve
Remember who you are

You are stronger than this
Wiser than this
You are made to be loved
Not to be dissed

You are better than this
How can you be okay with this?

You deserve nothing but understanding
You deserve hugs each time you cry
You deserve all that you're not getting
But please tell me why

You deserve light even in darkness
You deserve songs of love in the cold
You deserve all the world's happiness
Little one, now's the time to be bold

Lighten up, little one
Now's the time to fly
Go ahead little one
Stop settling with just getting by
Go ahead little one
Go and give life a try

gone

And so he went,
         he ran after her,
                  "Don't leave me," he said

Little did he know,
                                              she already did.

this is love?
this is what people die for? cry for? long for?
this is love?
this is what people beg for? lie for? crash for?

no.
this is not love.

love is supposed to be like coffee in the morning,
like the first sunshine after a week of rain,
like seeing your first sunset by the beach.

love is supposed to be beautiful, and light
it is supposed to be new, and fresh
it is supposed to be real, and true

no.
this is not love.
this is some lame excuse.

love is not supposed to be like hangover in the morning,
love is not supposed to be like losing your favorite hanky,
it's not supposed to be like getting the flu on your birthday.

no.
this is not love.

First
donna barba Jun 2015
We have been seeing each other for a couple of months now
No anything, just seeing each other

And one day you said you wanted to spend the night…
I said ‘no problem’ a little too excitedly because I really wanted to do something huge with you.
Thoughts went in and out of my head while you were lying next to me.

God I could live this way everyday…
Under the same sheets, with hands and legs intertwined…
Like all that’s not with us on this bed does not exist…
Like we are all that matters…
Because at that moment, you were all that matters…
You are all that matters

But don’t get me wrong
Having you beside me is not the best part

Want to know what is? The certainty
This relationship lacks certainty
And for the very first time… I was certain. I’ll still have you tomorrow.

When I wake up, you’ll still be here.

but then you let me walk away
maybe you wanted to say stop
maybe you wanted to say dont

but then does that even matter?
of course it doesnt
because then,
then you let me walk away
donna barba May 2015
I'm sad and low and alone really
He doesn't know the secrets I keep within me
I don't show it, always hides it
But I just want to end this misery

How many times do I have to be beaten to the ground?
How many times do I have to cry my eyes out?
How many times do I have to?
Who the hell said I had to???

Why do people become blinded?
Is it because sometimes love's one sided?
Why do I always seem to fail?
Always heading for the wrong trail

But somehow I just can't go and give in
I know I can walk away, but I'll just want you again
So I guess I'll just stay despite everything
And pray that one day you'll really be the one to give me that ring

No words
donna barba Jun 2015
Through the silence
You have spoken
You made it clear
You had me broken

— The End —
