some of the people that
love you the most
Ironically
hurt you the most
yet I love
forgiveness is my weapon of choice
i always carry bombs of compassion
& tanks that are fueled with empathy
because a heart like mine will sacrifice itself in
war for love
Joliejoliesara Aug 2015
A faded memory of your silhouette,
every time I close my eyes
I bite my lips & pretend it's you
my skin screams your name

Intangible presence,
your ghost haunts my days, my nights

I remember the first time I saw you
still feel the fire that was egnited  
the burning passion made me come alive
but now
nobody's been able to touch me,
that fire burns them to ashes

C+
I taught him,
I taught him how to
Kiss me.
In the ways,
In the same ways
You would.

S.R
& as a result
I  might have a biased opinion
on my grading method...
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
Maybe people like us
shouldn't be together
the outcome of a
love so strong
could possibly be the cause of
supernovas
& our heartbreaks the result of
black holes
Yet we love..
Joliejoliesara Aug 2015
Give
me
a few
drops of
passion
&
I''ll
find
the
ocean.
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
& I can breath again..
knowing you will always remember me
as the one that never returned
you will, for the rest of your life, question
my existence and my location
who I'm with and if I love him as much as i did you
if I'm thinking of you all the times you think of me
if I miss your voice, your laugh, your touch
if I remember you like you do me
THE ANSWER IS YES
very much so
but you were an anchor and I needed to fly
PS. I will always love you, from afar...
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
"Perhaps our particles
had been together many times before,
like we might've been near each
other when the Big Bang happened.  
That's why gravity might work
so well in our favor.
Keeping us
together."
I'm sure we've loved each other many times before.
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
A creative-idual enhances the notion of an ordinary human.
Creates magic out of the dimmest detail.
Sees the minuscule extraordinariness nobody else can.
Romanticizing our existence.
Everything has the value of gold, it all means something.
Their worlds are as valuable as the breath of life to the listening ear.
Showing only a peak of the flowers that bloom within.
See beauty, become Beauty.
S.R.

You caught me then,
Watching you in bed through the old mirror
While I lay on your chest.

What I didn't know then was that you were as unreachable as that reflection in the old mirror.

Just an idea.

Didn't know you would become just as intangible..
Just as elusive...
But wasn't it wonderful?
Joliejoliesara Sep 2015
You became the equivalent of an overdose.
I rather perish in our daze
than to
be without you
D.A.R.E say no?
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
Disregarding the pain of the unfamiliar.
Without looking outside of ourselves.
Unassociated from those unlike us.
Like if we didnt know that under
their exact circumstances
we would've done the
very same thing.

Thus,
we are all in the same.
Empathy.
Joliejoliesara Aug 2015
I love unconditionally.
I'm selfish,
if I want you I'll have you.
Sometimes when it's morally incorrect,
I'm sorry if I've hurt you.
Love,
when it's forbidden.
Love when it's forgotten.
I don't question love,
love crimes.
Desire, love, lust
dont bring me one without
the other.
Give me madness,
and a passion the stars will envy.
Joliejoliesara Apr 2016
i don't feel guilty,

anymore.
i learned to embrace it,
maybe it's the key to seduction..

i like to remember you,
all of you.

shadow and skin.

how your raspberry kisses dripped lust over bare me,
forbidden me.

how you made your way into me,
past all of the unnecessary clothes, fear, and guilt..

she wont forgive us and we wont forget.
Joliejoliesara Aug 2015
I cry because I'm selfish,
because I don't want to lose you.
Can't even fathom a reality where you're nonexistent, leave my heart vacant.
The love that is embedded in the fabric of your being, is pure light.
The things you touch turn to flowers,
The warmth in your heart is what fuels our home,
Your happiness is the most important thing on this world,
Your words treasurerd wisdom worth more than all the gold.

You can't leave us anytime soon, because I'm selfish, I'm selfish and I want my future children to know a love as GRAND as yours.

My mother, my greatest inspiration, the greatest hero I've ever known...

Stay a while, for I need you.
I just want to make you proud, my beautiful woman.
-S.R.
Joliejoliesara Sep 2015
Caught you off guard
With a lighthearted smile
And
in that fraction of a second
I could see the child that dwels within you

Pure and sincere  
Silly, lover of all things
The one who forgets to judge
One that lives on mountains of
Creative curiosity
Explorer of unfathomable lands
Innocence through your eyes filled with awe

As fast as it came, it left.
You grew up once more to a dull, monotonous and frivolous conditioning the we are shaped into as children.

Live my brothers & love with an intensity only permitted in your dreams and hidden fantasies.
Coffee shop glimpses on strangers and sincere smiles...
Joliejoliesara May 2015
I didn't look at you long enough...
I missed everything.
But I do remember the way you would stare at me & smile.
You know those looks that help you forget about time, space & all boundaries that have ever existed.
Those looks that last either a second or an eternity but you're not sure because you just saw all the love within him through his irises.
If I remember nothing else,
that look will be enough to last me a lifetime.
With the sole condition that you find me again in the next one.
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
I needed you to give me something I could feed of off...

Even one word would've satisfied my hunger for you...

The romantic notion of you is disappearing with his taste...
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
Help me forget all the
Times he held my universe
Together with a look into my eyes.
Help me change time,
So that the seconds don't scream his name.
Help me remove the scars he left all
Over my body, memories of caresses turned bruises, bruises that turned into hurt, pain that stayed as scars.
Help me love you, I'm begging you.
I will never ask you for anything else...
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
It's not that I'm comparing you to him  

but when someone shows you their
world of magic & wonder  

it's hard to settle in a slum, with eyes of hope.
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
What inspires you?
What makes your heart overflow with love & joy?
What makes you feel whole & at your peak when doing it?
What makes you feel invincible?
What is it that fuels your dreams?

        & why don't you do it more often?
                                   Love always Sarahi
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
Funny,
she tried to visit
so she could talk to God
but at the gates of heaven
they asked her for a visa.

They denied her entrance, so
she jumped the gate with a pure heart.

An immigrant in the realm of heaven.
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
She longs for nights
When galaxies appear
In the vast sky
& silence conquers.

While others dream
She found a woken
& lively tranquility.

She identified with
The darkness of the night
And how stars will only
Show themselves upon
What once was mishap
Or a frightening concept,
The dark.
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
nothing stands a chance
everything around her falls in love
maybe it's the way her eyes
have a deep, even cruel sadness
that captivates your soul
with a smile that makes you
forget the reason for your existence,
and the sadness in her eyes
maybe it's her sweet voice
tantalizing, seductive, tempting
she's like all the books you've ever loved
don't let her touch you
you won't escape
but catch a glimpse and you won't look away
the mysteries of an untamable woman
she's endless, loving, magic
to the passing of her beloved
she gained me,
heartbreaking luck
friendships that fuel your soul and find reasons for the oceans depth

On a single day I became his entirely, all in all
Even what did not belong to me was now somehow his
He took the pain I had been collecting and ripped it from my skin

Without any warning he sprouted
And his roots found my ankles
Tangled around my thighs into my veins  
From there, we grew

We grew so high that we could only be found by our guardian
Angels,
They caught us way up above the clouds in perpetual ******
Joliejoliesara Aug 2015
Thursday night,
Met by utter faith
He told me about his life
He opened up quickly
He explained how he was effected by the death of his parents
How his grandpa always saw the good in everyone & never spoke foul
He told me what it's like growing up with an Italian family
How growing up in Brooklyn made him tough
He told me about the persona he had to play in his profession
He talked about energetic connections, souls and how destiny ultimately gets you & traps you
He said how imperfections make us perfect
He talked about the sincerity in my eyes, the delicacy of my voice
He asked if he could see me again
From opposites end of the country, find me, and make me yours again
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
For making you love me..
For having secrets..
Telling you partial truths..
Kissing you in all the right places..
Letting you sleep in my arms..
Allowing you to believe in forever..
I'm sorry I embraced every bit of you..
I'm sorry I exploited your caresses
Im sorry I encouraged your dreams to get tangled with the notion of me
I'm sorry I got in your head
I'm sorry I had no plans of staying



PS. You should've known
Joliejoliesara Oct 2015
to honor the fire that destroys you inside

give me all your sorrows
let me take the reasons for all the oceans you've cried

i want your guilt running through my veins
like all my cheap wine

didn't you know that,
angels aren't supposed to cry

let me sin, let me suffer,
as selfish as it may be
i deserve your pain more than you
maybe this way my heart wont die of love loss
Joliejoliesara Oct 2015
Because a love so potent makes everything else taste grey

Leaving only black and white residues of hope

For after a passion that knows no boundaries
you're left with blank stares

where there used to be oceans,
wars,
the infinite,
hell and ******....
S.R.
Joliejoliesara Sep 2015
That simple glance didn't suffice
I had to SEE you
One caress wasn't enough
needed to FEEL you whole
A brush on the lips
& in unison
we made a home
Funny feeling of familiarity
wrapped around curiosity
for the unknown
Like forgetting your
greatest LOVE
& rediscovering it all at once
But you really shouldn't make me home,
it'd be vacant too soon..  
Too fickle to lay in your arms for the sunrise...
Joliejoliesara Sep 2015
You came and you stayed

I have yet to get rid of you

Although you've been gone for some time

I see pieces of you every time
I look in the mirror

Intangible shadows of you decorate the
Walls of my
Heart
Was he even real at all?
S.R.
Joliejoliesara Sep 2015
Strength is found in the most bizarre ways.

Like when you can't cry any longer,
or when there's more pain in your veins than blood.
You know those times when you break
& all your emotions collide
in a hail storm of feelings & sunshine?

Maybe it's just me,
when I'm shattered to a billion pieces
is when the brightest little lights of strength
find me,
these lights like to test me,
they like to see how far I'll go before I give in.
& Right before I lose hope, I find them.
Hope & strength love playing hide and seek when you need them most.
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
I believe there's secrets hidden amongst our stars.

They're dying to tell us..

You just have to listen...
but listen you must with an open heart
Paradoxical because you can only see the stars but you can always hear your heart, that's where your secrets are hidden..
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
I just want you to need me as much as you need oxytocin, dopamine & serotonin. I selfishly want your sky's to be gloomy without me. I want everything & everyone that's not me to feel like a mistake. I want you to feel that you live in a black & white world If I'm not around.

I want you to need me.
But when you need me,
you become monotonous.
I want you to need me
& as soon as you do,
I'll leave...
S.R.
Subtle manipulations...
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
Other times I kiss the northern winds, let them dance with my curls while caressing my curves. Drifting me away, a feather in a gentle tornado towards vague, dreamlike, foreign lands.  

& in other occasions I belong wholeheartedly to the moon. She's my favorite intimate lover, the most passionate of all. Her dark mysteries keep me addicted to the light she steals from the sun.

Then when the sun takes me, lights me up, burns me, sweet sweet fire, as he embraces me. A Phoenix coming back to him over & over. Naked scars & whispers of warm love, poems that tell me he shines for me, keeps the soil under my feet warm for me, tells me he lives for me.

All the while the ocean waits patiently for me to yet again submerge myself in the chaos of its storms. Maybe all the salt water in the oceans are just tears that've been shed waiting for lovers to embrace its madness. Oceans long for fearless lovers, lovers that fear not the wrath of its solitude and forbidden passion.

& once in a blue moon I sit in silence & succumb to the unknown. Most of the time words fail me and I can't describe the way I unwrap myself in the darkness. Dark matter, the ether, my intangible lovers living in the same place. There's an art to losing yourself in places like these.

Sometimes I belong to you, but for the most part, I belong to myself.
S.R.
Joliejoliesara Dec 2017
thrown to the depths of my heart,
im sorry...

im sorry i couldn't find your morning kisses
from droopy eyes and tangled hands in the ocean of white sheets

im sorry i will never know what you're afraid of
what you value most in this world and bring it to you
the reasons why you love and the reasons why you hate

i can't recreate your kisses
and thats putting nails all over my skin and bleeding out slowly  
i can't touch you anymore
and thats burning my hands to ashes

i cant put them back together, ash doesn't like the new structure  

you wait for the right one and when the right one shows up you feel the need to run. Forrest cant beat me, i got him.
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
still think of you
you know, i
still love you
despite the effort
& the men that i've savored
you undeniable you,
like the sunrise you can't prevent
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
The memory of your dark green eyes,
Burning through my skin,
Lighting my soul on fire,
Is ever so present.
I still see you.
You're still in my dreams.
S.R.
Joliejoliesara May 2015
The tears that decorated my face that night have left to become stars.

They remind me of the love I have for you shining ever so brightly.

& not a single night passes that I don't find you up in the cosmos amongst my tears.
Joliejoliesara Jul 2015
Have you the slightest idea of what
It's like to have a person you love
dissolve into madness?

He dove in head first to a bottomless
pit of insanity.
& no matter how much we try.
We can't even send him a memory of
what the sun used to looks like.

Let's say you have a different outlook on life,
& the people you love most tell you it's not real.
That you're demented,
and everything you see as real isn't.

Then arises the question:
If perception is key, when does it become a reality?
What is real?

& if physics is correct,
this is all just a probability.
If so, then why does it hurt so much?
When physics and emotions mix...
Joliejoliesara Jun 2015
Without you looking
I put little bits and pieces
of you in my pocket,
I tried taking them out this morning
to hug you
but it turns out
my pocket had a little hole
S.R.
