instrument (haiku)
Vaanya Feb 2019
Oh sweet instrument!
You play; you break yet still play
Unlike my poor heart

music
Vaanya Feb 2019
a saccharine melody fills me in
the weight of your gaze
dripping with sin
like a broken violin

serendipity
Vaanya Feb 2019
I remember the day
The day we met
As memories are connected to it
Which I can't forget

When he would touch me
Fireworks would ignite
When he would look at me
He was the most beautiful sight

His eyes were ocean deep
As if I could swim in them
But if I looked a little deeper
I would find a treasure; the real gem

I'd trade my soul for a wish
Pennies and dimes for his kiss
But now, he belongs with me
It is truly a serendipity

sensuous
Vaanya Feb 2019
skin to skin
committing sin
sparks of attraction
in simple actions

panting breaths
muffled moans
kisses on the neck
passionate groans

driven by lust
in every ******
an impure affair
love is in the air

intense
Vaanya Feb 2019
and as they kissed
it all came down to this
a boy and a girl unafraid
falling deep into their own abyss

losing themselves in each other
tangled bodies clinging together
everything else just blurred out
they thought they had forever

moonlight (haiku)
Vaanya Feb 2019
the dancing moonlight
knows the secrets of this world
as it pirouettes

Ink (haiku)
Vaanya Feb 2019
ink is spreading through
along with my scarlet tears
tearing through the page

star-crossed lovers
Vaanya Feb 2019
In the dark dungeon
Where I was living
There was a faint light
I saw him coming

A little hope was what I saw
And the glimmer in his eyes
He was all I needed
But, time flies

His smile was infectious
Eyes forest deep
Now I see him when I fall asleep
But never to touch; never to keep

When he was with me
I had the world's luck
Now that he's gone
I'm all alone and stuck

fantasy
Vaanya Feb 2019
It would start with his breath on my neck
Hands snaking around my waist
Locking me in his stare
Our fingers interlaced

His lips would be on mine
My hands in his hair
And then after a few moments
Our bodies would be bare

moonchild
Vaanya Feb 2019
As the heavens looked down upon us
Underneath the starlight
His walls came down
So I kissed him; held him tight

As the moon smiled
I told him everything was alright
I promised to stay
Forever, day and night

He pushed me away
With tears in his eyes
I simply fell apart
Like clouds in the above dark skies

forlorn
Vaanya Feb 2019
i can't stop my eyes
from straying to your face
staring and hoping
until you notice my gaze

i can't cease my feelings
from floating towards you;
from reaching your heart
and further going through

i can't hold myself back
from falling for who you are
but maybe it's unrequited
so i guess i'll just dream from afar

despair
Vaanya Feb 2019
They say love is a flower
You've got to let grow
But the petals soon shed
Reviving all the sorrow

Every time I see you
I fall in love all over again
But my mind says otherwise
Have I forgotten the pain?

toxin
Vaanya Feb 2019
you're the venom i want
to keep me from moving on

to **** me from the inside
from cruel intentions and spite

to burn through my veins
scorching and leaving stains

you're the poison i need
out of my hungry greed

memories
Vaanya Feb 2019
I hear you're asking me around
'Cause I'm nowhere to be found
You lost your chance
Now you don't even give a second glance

You've faded away from my life
I've learnt to move on
You're just a haunting memory
You'd left my heart torn

They say memories last forever
Our relationship was what I savored
But you chewed me up and spat me out
Like I was poison in your mouth

The scars on my heart
The letters you sent to me
Are the only things left of you

Which I keep as long lost memories

pieces
Vaanya Feb 2019
You were my love
You were my dreams
You were flawless and perfect
Yet torn apart at the seams

But nothing lives happily ever after
You left me in pieces
My ears would ring with your laughter
You left me suffering; needing your kisses

But then I realized
You were not meant to be mine
Your heart was a block of ice
I had wasted my time

You will catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
You left too many scars
Who do you think you are?

mirrors
Vaanya Feb 2019
shards of the broken mirror
hurt like thorns through my skin
piercing at my past
it shattered for i sinned;


the sin of loving you

reminisce
Vaanya Feb 2019
As the wind blows
Carrying spring's hues
A leaf floats down
And suddenly, I'm reminded of you

As twilight falls
The sky turns a hazy blue
Under the starry evening
I'm thinking of nights spent with you

As the silence finally settles in
I'm still reminiscing
Maybe it's my heart; perhaps my soul
I feel something shattering

origami
Vaanya Feb 2019
Fold our memories back
Turn off the lights; pitch- black
But can you cease the flashbacks?

Crease my love for you
I know you miss me too
Want to start anew?

Tear my emotions apart
My fragile little paper heart;
Not unlike some destroyed art

Cut out the pieces of melody
Strung together with the hanging melancholy
Like broken Japanese origami

soulless
Vaanya Feb 2019
You didn't realize I was breaking
Oblivious to my shattering heart
Couldn't hear through the silence
That was tearing me apart

The blank spaces in my thoughts
Were spreading a biting coldness
Even though I wasn't alone
My body was turning soulless

— The End —
