venting, for the soul
Lily Jul 2020
distracted by a conversation, then a sudden forceful movement surprised her.
what is happening she asks herself as she pushes away from the intoxicated boy.
“stop”, the word that meant close to nothing that night.
“we can’t do this”, you have a girlfriend she thinks to herself.
a drunk friend in need, help is all she wants to do but forced upon her is two lips that meet her own.
lonely is what he feels but it isn’t right, she knows it will be a regret if he remembers what happened that night.
so the night comes to an end.
she gets away and he falls asleep.
communication dies and time goes on
memories will die that’s just how the world works, don’t live in regret... for it darkens the soul

Hot tea
Lily Nov 2018
Looking down and losing myself among the freshly brewed tea
Steaming hot and ready to drink
Although I know I’ll get burned
I take a sip
Thinking it won’t hurt
Retreating my lips from the cup
Exasperated, I yelp out in agony
I feel as if this is how my love is hence relinquished

Alone
Lily Nov 2018

Alone
Sleeping on an empty bed
Alone
Waking and getting ready
Alone
Walking along the streets
Alone
Shopping for one
Alone
I could go on and on but I would still be doing it
Alone

Frustration
Lily Oct 2018
Why do I get so frustrated
Just by seeing others next to you
You laugh with them and smile at them
Yet I am frustrated
I know It’s not my right to be but
I just can’t help thinking why can’t that be me...

Falling asleep
Lily Oct 2018
My eyes are like the fog around a lake on a cold morning day
Shaded and grey
Yet as intriguing as the summer haze
As daylight savings time shortens our days to bring us an early sunset ray
Quiet,
I lay my head to rest upon my fluffed up pillow set
Falling asleep quickly to awake bright and early and feel as great as when our eyes had met...

Eyes on you
Lily Oct 2018
My eyes follow you
Unknowingly I stare
My friend breaks my attention
Asking me what I was doing,
Do I dare answer her and tell her I was staring at someone I care about deeply.
No.
So I suddenly answered nothing
But she knew and said staring at him again... looking down I said no
Embarrassed as ever,
What do I do to break that habit that is continuously there?

Cocoa
Lily Oct 2018
I feel slowly
My crush for you is fading
Flowing out of a faucet
Like water down the sink
But I know that when I see you
Again, they will come rushing back in as if I were a kid out in the snow who came running  inside for some hot cocoa

Questions to myself
Lily Oct 2018
Do I like you?
Yes...
But could I become more like
Her or her
Just to get close to you
I’m not as popular
Nor am I pretty
I probably don’t even have many similarities
But I will change and hope that you notice me
If not I may cry but I will move on with a piece of you in my heart

Thinking about you
Lily Oct 2018
My thoughts, filled with you
Having me anticipating my every move
How could I just stop one thing
To pick up another
It hurts, where am I in your thoughts
Anywhere? Probably not...

How do I say it?
Lily Sep 2018
Te quiero, je t'aime, ti amo, ich liebe dich
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
How many different ways could I say it
Sign language, Braille, writing...
Writing, yes writing that may never get to you
But it’s the only way my feelings will never change towards you
Though how could I ever say it to you? Maybe I won’t, ever maybe, but I can still write to you secretly...
I love you

— The End —
