You Know Me
Kiana Tietz Dec 2015
Saddened by my past
Can't make amends
Trying to advance
Every step we take just
Slipping through the cracks

Let's move forward
But we take three steps back
Everyone's been broken
But I can't seem to fix the past

Contemplating the future
When my heart's still in a cast
Overgrown images of could bes
And what we've had

Let's make a new picture
Not perfect yet
But it's a work of art
I'll make it the perfect representation
Of the space you have in my heart

Duo

Duo
Alone in a crowded room
Sinking in the carpets
I extend my hand
To show you you're not alone

I am by your side
Here for your rollercoaster ride
We'll whip through the skies
So I can show you what you're made of

Let me whisk you away
And show you the world
If even for one day
*I'll show you your worth

Some words spoken too soon
Premature thoughts left to die
And now basking in our disappointment
So much anticipation in 6 walls of desolation
My mind wanders to the beginning
What was once a could be
Is now drifting down our river of silence

Every Ounce of Love
Kiana Tietz Feb 2016
I'm counting down the days till I get to feel your
heart beat,
Taste your sweet lips,
Look into your soft eyes,
Hug your warm body,
And listen to your quiet voice.

I'm counting down the days till I can be in your
warm embrace,
Look up to your sweet face,
Talk with you till the days late,
And lay with you till the morning wakes.

I wanna be with you and no one else.
I wanna love you till I can't even love myself.
I wanna make you feel special in every way.
I wanna run with you till the nights mix with the days.

I love every piece of you, every ounce of
yourself.
No one can change that feeling that's left,
Inside,
Every time I look into your eyes.

these three metal walls
closing in
packed with the memories
stained with your grin
one year later
I felt happy
thinking like I'm me now
and new people all surround me
but still these things
linger and distress
in the back of my mind
I'm still thinking about the past
still sitting in those boxes
covered in dust
molded and rust
showing me that I
don’t really think there
will ever be another us
ever be that undeniable trust
I'm sorry that my mind's still racing
but I'm sorry that my heart can't take it
sorry to say
but ill stay in my place
pack the rest of the boxes
load them in the car
and when I get to where I need
I'll throw them in there hard
and hope that all the feelings will
break under the weight
then I'll slide that fourth wall down
and throw away the key
and hope these silly memories
never come running back to me

Fly
Kiana Tietz Sep 2015
Fly
All at once
You came in like a storm
Made me realize there is more
More then what I can see

All of you
Bull rushed by the moon
Taken from your home
Scared to move a bone
You didn't budge

As soon as the gates are open
You'll be gone
As soon as the ride is over
You wont be home

I knew you were different
Sonder in my eyes
You made me realize
That nothing matters

Mistakes
Kiana Tietz Dec 2015
that first bite
cherry sweet
the first taste
stings deep into my teeth

I'm cringing at the burn

but wanting the next bite
more then I want life

the everlasting sweetness
turns to bitter and sour
can't change what's been done
but the game has just begun

try to turn back the time
see if the burning will subside
endure the pain one more time

no more cherry sweet
your taste for candy rot your teeth
alone and wanting something more
but nothing will satisfy
the fierce craving you endure

— The End —
