Violet Smithe

When I was younger
I stood there waiting.
I stood there,
Waiting for someone who would not come,

Back,

Against the cold damp wall I stood,
As an unwanted postage stamp,

Forgotten,

Waiting to be remembered.
I watched,
As I stood there.

Bubble Theory

Bubble Theory

Ever since you explained bubble theory to me, I've been more aware
Of bubbles joining and breaking
Of people joining together.
People faking.

I've been avoiding you.
For almost 24 hours now.
I was scared the next time we met, you'd have your bubble and I'd have a fence.
Only just now, I've realized it's much worse than that.

I'm raw. Exposed.
And you're in your **** bubble.
I've let myself become vulnerable to you.
The damage is done.

I can't touch you.
Because every touch is a promise of what could have been.
What won't be.
A reminder that you shouldn't mean nearly this much to me.
And that despite all your pretty words, and they are just words:
I am nothing to you.

Even as I write this poem, I want to deny that it's true.
This is me, screaming that I want you.
And though you'll never see, I can't help but hope
That maybe, just maybe, when I showed you this site you took note.

Though I know sometimes it's wrong, being with you feels right.
There's this feeling that I'm trying to fight.
I'll do my best never to act on it,
But what I really want is to steal your first kiss.

There. I said it.
And since you know me so well,
figure out whether it's better to kiss or to tell.

The tragic plan

The tragic plan

Oh I care so much
You just don't know that

Yes, I've been avoiding you
It's all part of the plan

We used to be the best of friends
Until I betrayed you

You forgave me
Yet I distanced myself

Because I don't forgive myself
But you don't know that

Now you hate me
It's all part of the plan

Not really into the beat nor does it consists of any rhymes. Just something relevant in life.
I'm sorry, but I'm letting go for your good

by chance our eyes met

by chance our eyes met

by chance
i met your eyes
in the hall today.
normally i would of
been scoping you out.
my eyes roaming the halls
and the classroom, for your face.
however since i told you,
i've been avoiding you.
and by chance
i met your eyes
in the hall today.
my heart raced,
and i cursed myself.

Gray.

Gray.

I saw you with her today.
No wonder why the sky was so gray.

I didn't know it would bring me so much hurt,
But I sit here and feel like a piece of dirt.

I knew this day would come,
I thought that would take the pain away some.

It didn't.

I don't mean to get all sappy.
But I hope she makes you happy.

I know I never could,
So this was probably for your own good.

I'm not what you deserve,
So I'll just sit here silently and observe.

refusal

refusal

i never thought my life would turn out this way
never thought that i would be controlled by someone else
never thought i could be in so much pain from just seeing someone
never thought my heart could pound so hard from a single thought
never thought i would be so uncertain
never thought i could be so betrayed
never thought i could feel so empty
never thought i could hurt so bad
never thought i would actually have to check if my heart was still beating
never thought there was a chance i could never be repaired
never thought i could feel so weak as i was getting stronger.
never thought that it would all turn out this way by meeting you....

Giving Trees and Cruelties

Giving Trees and Cruelties

I gave away my branches,
I gave away my leaves,
you chopped me up for housing,
then ran off,
leaving me.

I gave away my dirt,
and gave away my air,
I gave away the water,
you said you'd none to spare.

I gave away my patterns,
I gave away my age,
I gave away all I had,
and you'd just take and take.

And now that I have nothing,
I sit alone, and cry
I think how I am now a stump,
and you didn't even say goodbye.

I don't know why,
I give stuff to you.
I tell the others,
it's just what I do.
But I'm ready to jump,
right over the ledge.
You keep laughing,
and pushing me off the edge.
Then you come back around,
asking for solace.
I'd have hit the ground by now,
but i won't get stuck in the past.
So whether or not hurting me was your goal,
Take that you ***!
Being a bully isn't cool.
