of all the words I've written
of all the words I've said
you continue not to listen
*I wish I was dead
I'm a coward though so this is basically like me saying "I wish I was a millionaire" i.e it wont happen, not by my hands
D Feb 2014
Every lock has a key

Because every secret can be set free

And there's a secret buried inside me

I think it's time to let you see

Who I really need to be..
D Jun 2016
If I decided to change my password tonight,
You may take that as a challenge;
A beginning to a fight.

If I told you to give up your password right now,
You may take that as a joke
And laugh out loud.
You do what you want to and nothing more

drinking cheap wine
just to hate myself
better
It's not even good
D May 2017
what does any of it matter
   this pain I feel
compared to the ordeal
   you're facing?

not a pinch, an inch, no
   -- so don't ask me
D Mar 2019
i like the quiet simplicity,
and i'm lost some where in my dreams;

tempting me is a life unfufilled,
a world where there's just you and me.
i feel like  i dont  try enough when i write lately


and i miss him
D May 2016
If I don't
Take charge
Of my life

I'm afraid of
What I'll lose

Myself

But most
Importantly

*You
D Dec 2013
I love how we share the same insecurities
I love how you don't even know
I love the way your eyes shine when you really smile

                                                    I love a lot of you, but not all

I hate how you think all of life is meaningless
I hate how that implies we are too
I hate that you think you could ever lose me to someone else

                                                    *I hate a lot of things, but never you
D Nov 2014
They don't always go hand in hand
I love you with all my heart
But I don't trust you anymore
I wish I could and I'm trying to forgive you
But something keeps holding me back
Maybe it's for the better though
I tend to trust all the wrong people
Mistake poison tipped arrows
For cupids call to love
D Feb 2014
Love is

Boundless

Enticing

Addictive

Unde­niable

Terrifying

Imperfect

Fantastical

­Unique

Liberating

Love is beautiful

I don't care if I'm going crazy, I'm already crazy about you,
I think about you day and night, always wishing you'd be by my side,
And if some say I'm addicted, so what if I am?
This addiction makes me feel loved,
I think its worth letting it destroy me in the long run,
D Jun 2016
It's true you've never gone this far before
But this isn't exactly new
I want to trust you again but
That's easy to say and harder to do
For nearly three years I put up with petty flirting
An uphill battle, a tiring journey
I got lulled into a false security
Believing you to never really hurt me

But you did.

Where do we go from here?
I'm trying to figure it out but through all these years,
I've never had to forgive you for something this huge
Something I'm not even done hurting over -
I don't know what to do.
I'm scared, so scared this wont be the last,
And if I'm to go on the past,
Then it'll be no time before you're back.

You said the easy thing to do is to forgive you,
that love makes us weak.
Then why is this so ******* hard?
Why is love the only thing keeping me on my feet?
I think, your love is weak and you don't know who I am.
No more putting up with your stupid fans.
No more flirting or hugging or studio dates.
One more and we're done
I'm not accepting any more mistakes.

I'm so tired.
Jumble of thoughts.
How do I begin to truly trust him?
How long will it take to truly forgive him?
How far will he go to change his ways?
Will he change at all?

How do I put this delicately?
If my bodies a temple, defile me

With hands that grasp so gently
And teeth that graze so menacingly

Don't hold back, I beg of thee
Love me, love me, love me
I'd say I ask for too much, but all I'm asking for is love.. so love me?
D Jul 2015
I wanted to say make me feel important,
like you'd spend 150$ on me
just because you wanted me
to have something nice from you.
Make me believe you have
trouble getting to sleep
because my arms arent wrapped
around you.
Tell me about your day
not out of obligation,
but because you dont want me to miss
the things that made you happy.
Love me like I love you,
completely with a bit of insanity.
D Feb 2017
Who else could make love like you?
The answer -- me.
I made a funny talking to the lover ^-^
D Jan 2017
-

his eyes are shut, and lips parted
they taste like his dreams alive
tension slips and frustration fades
when for the night, we lie
in each others arms, a warm embrace
my face buried in the crook of his neck
and I find myself finally at peace
though few are my hours of rest
who needs sleep when I have him
how sweet he appears in his sleep
as I run my fingers through his hair
why go to bed when instead
I can watch him while he slumbers
love, the only true way to get rest
D Feb 2014
Though you've just gone,
It feels so long
Without you here
Everything's just so unclear

My head starts to spin
I'm starting to trip
Without you near
Everything's just so unclear
just needed a place to put this and couldn't find paper, k thanks
D Apr 2014
My shoulders have been aching all day
This jacket is making me hot
My knees are about to give out beneath me
Someone, anyone, please make this stop..
D Dec 2015
I always wear a mask, but I tend to forget it with you
Masks are used when I'm scared of others spying the truth
The only truth I know is that with you, I am purely me
A me that likes to sing and spit and laugh and smoke some ****
D Jul 2018
Outline the moon on the skin of his back,
he's never ashamed when I help him relax
Tracing the moon, the stars, and your smile
D Aug 2018
his hands sketch my edges, down
tracing the dips and curves and swells
his fingers curl into my skin, soft
where ever skin is found

burning with every seconds past
longing for his touch to last

his hands feel through me
reaching soul deep, he breaths
in holy serenity, feeding me solely;
his masterpiece
what it feels like
D Dec 2017
he's a masterpiece
  of old regrets and
  lonely nights

she's his picasso --
  painting his undoing
  with every stroke

her fingers careless
  as they brush against
  his pale skin

when she leaves again
  he plucks on his guitar
  a melancholy tune

he's a masterpiece
  of old sadness and
  lonely solitude
D Jun 2016
I keep wondering to myself,
Was there something I could have done?
Could I have avoided this all?

Maybe if I worked harder to be pretty
Maybe if I wasn't afraid to sing out loud, no matter the sound
Maybe if I could just push down the anxiety and throw myself into the world
Maybe... but it doesn't matter now

The past is written, the ink is dry.
All there's to do is live and die.
D Dec 2013
In the past five years
We've had some good memories
We'd laugh at our mistakes
And then make some more

But this past year
I've been thinking
That maybe, just maybe
It's time to let go

You've been a good friend to me
At least for the most part
When you're not poking fun
At my every flaw

You've been growing ever colder
Not caring when you pushed
To the very limits, went to far
And shattered my heart
I'll probably come back and edit this just bc it *****/ sorry.
D Mar 2017
Maybe it wouldn't feel so hard had you not
brought it to the front of my attentions
Maybe after too many of the same conversations
I can't find it in myself to believe you again
Maybe if I act like you and use
the same old tired excuse, you'll finally
understand how it feels too
Maybe this has nothing to do with you or us,
and it's all me who keeps on ******* up
Maybe I'm just a ***** that doesn't deserve to be in love,
who never really knew how to be the loyal one
once was enough
D Feb 2020
words barely flow, the rivers of my mind are dry
my heart has too many emotions all vying to die
on a page in my notebook, or as code on your screens
but the drought is severe so they stay put in my dreams
this was a different poem with the same title but I didn't like it so it'll live in my head instead. what even are words, structure who? ugh.
D Nov 2014
Memories are the enemy to a heart struggling to heal
D Dec 2017
A broken record playing softly from the corner of the room on repeat
with no-longer-white sheets draped over rotting, forgotten furniture.
Thick drapes coated heavily in years of dust have kept the warm rays of sunlight from piercing the stale darkness that permeates the space.
There is no life here, no forgiveness;
only the wailing of the record as it hums its familiar tune, until finally it, too, ends.
If I had to describe what it feels like to allow myself to trust people, this would be it.
D Jun 2017
how many times do i have to say i'm drowning
before people finally understand
this isn't some pretty metaphor
and it's not all in my head
D Apr 2019
all my sadness falls away and so do my senses
i'm feeling pretty senseless
my mouth is pretty reckless
my tongue is doing dances and there's a weight that's been lifted
clothes are being shifted
i'm feeling pretty gifted
it was so, so good.
D Mar 2014
I should let it go,
Go to sleep,
Just shut my eyes
And await another day..

But I'm scared to go,
Scared to sleep.
Because when I shut my eyes
They don't go away..
D Dec 2018
i'm too young to be old, yet too old for this ****,
try me at a later date and we'll see what you get,
a smile and a good word, or an insult and the bird,
i'm tired of these silly games, now **** outta here girl
off to bed and mildly still upset

already over it
D Jan 2019
soft off-white pages,
velvet leather spine,
wrapped in cloths of silk,
with edges, gold inlined
i want to publish just one book,
a book of poems; a really *fine* book of poems

'milk and honey' by rupi kuar is a good poetry book btw check it out
D Dec 2013
I said I wanted to go
But I didn't really want to leave
What I wanted was for you to make me stay
I just wanted to believe

That you could really love me
Someone as weird and utterly normal as I
That you could care enough about me
To not let me leave with that sort of goodbye

But then you stepped aside
Let me pass you, out the door
And I couldn't stop the tears from falling
Once my foot hit the snow

You just let me leave you
After all the drama, all the fight
I couldnt--wouldnt-- believe it
It just wasnt right.

My thoughts were like a tornado
Destroying from within
What happened to us in there?
And was I going to let it win?

Sure I was upset,
But being away for even a minute
It was killing me already
How could I stand to even last it?

So I turned around,
Leaving every shred of pride behind
God, was I ever stupid
And out of my **** mind

He wouldn't want me back,
Right after he gave me up?
But if he really did like me,
Coming back would be enough

He'll forgive me and I, him.
And if he doesnt, I dont care!
I'll turn back and walk away--
Thats when I saw you standing there

Smiling a knowing smile
Just across the street
I couldn't help the flutter of my heart
You were as lovely as could be

I walked to you then,
Slowly, head bowed
I stopped in front of you
Not sure what to do now

You wrapped me in your arms
And suddenly I knew
Everything would be okay
Because you loved me and I, you.

-

In secret we laugh, touch, and dream
and I carry the shame through the day

With the cover of night and only the moon to guide us
We stroll into the dark, hands clasped and breathless
Strolling through the dark, hearing music in the distance
There is fine line between adventure and mischief
One I like to cross when I'm alone with my thoughts
Yet, I'm always accompanied by my hollowest wants
Alone in my room, the moonlight streaking through
I shouldn't be dreaming of him, I should be dreaming of you
more of the same thing
D Dec 2013
I know this is really stupid
And probably sort of weird
But though I know I'll see you in a day
It feels like 100 years

I can't seem to shake this feeling
I've tried every distraction in the book
But every time I've finished reading
You're in my thoughts-- everywhere that I look

I know I'm really stupid
And definitely sort of weird
But I miss you like ******* crazy
I cant wait a day; a month; a year

I don't want to distract myself anymore
No, thats not what I need in the slightest
What I want-- wrong-- What I need
Is you, my star that shines the brightest

                                        So come to me my dear
                                   Don't make me wait any longer
                               I know this isn't our decision to make
                             But please, I'm not getting any smarter

You know that I'm pretty stupid
Especially when I'm acting this weird
But Isn't that what love makes us do?
It'll only get worse through the years

So lets not make this difficult
Lets not wait for anyones approval
Lets do this now and not waste a second
Lets run off and conquer the world

*Together?
Shut up. Shut up! Shutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutup!!! My head hurts and I can't think with you yelling at my from inside like that! ... Just.. please, shut up?
D Dec 2018
You're nice,
Not just nice, but really caring,
Risky of me to say, but I'm daring,
Cause no boy,
Not just a boy,
No man wants to hear that he's nice.

You're giving,
Not just rarely, but always giving,
Even without thinking, just always willing,
To me,
Not just to me,
But everyone we know.

Your diplomatic,
Not just fair, but really clever,
Easily bringing people back together,
With reason,
Not just what you say,
But your whole attitude.

Your understanding,
Not just patient, but calming and gentle,
Even when everyones going a bit mental,
Okay,
Not just everyone,
But mainly me.

I'm selfish,
Spoilt and moody and causing trouble,
Been living in my own little bubble,
For long,
Not just long,
But forever before I met you.

But you're nice
So perfect, it makes me look at me,
And re-evaluate the way I want to be,
Better,
Not just better,
But more like you.
I saved this at some point like five years ago but didn't write down who wrote it, still love it though
D Jun 2017
more

I wanted more of you
  I wanted everything that you're not
  everything I know you could be, but can't
  wanted to feel you hold me, exactly like you are
  but different -- I wanted passion, undefinable
  not blind lust.




*more


you wanted more from me
  you wanted everything I gave to you,
  everything I once gave you, but can't again
  wanted to feel me ***** you, exactly like I am now
  but different -- you wanted lust, uncontrollable
  not love.
D Jul 2017
A good one, if I got any sleep last night that wasn't interrupted
by your elbow in my back
it felt eerily like a knife I thought, but how unfortunate for me,
when you woke up to find
I'm laying on the floor, finally finding my rest, however poor,
so you complain of love lost
and knowing your fondess for storming out doors, still I wait
with the words on my tongue
my body reverberating the tense energy swirling around us,
because if you do what I think
than what else could be said to mend to cracks in our image?

not much I gathered from the look in your eyes
a look I didn't have long to memorize
you were here, and then not
faster then I could summarize
you weren't even going to say goodbye
D Jan 2019
and in the quiet i hear him
mumbling his truth

i don't love you
but i love him

My body is hungry for something more
Than feather light touches
And sweet kisses from soft lips.
I want to be touched in ways only possible
By a man of which a fire lies within.
I need a passion so bright
It blinds me of my surroundings,
My only focus on his rough grasp
Holding too tightly, for too long.
I must know how it feels
For the rough skin of his grasp
To slide along my waist,
Taking in all of me and none of me all at once,
His only focus on my moaning cries of pleasure
Seeping from my soft lips,
Now burning and torn from being bitten
And abused by his teeth.
I crave in an uncontrollable way
To know every inch of his body,
How it feels crushed against mine,
What their mouth tastes like
And how much I enjoy reveling in it's kissing
Of places no one's ever kissed but him,
The feeling of complete intimacy
As his tongue flicks delicately along my lips,
Licking as my love flows from my wounds,
Tasting my pain, feeling it too,
Crying as one and I'm overcome
By sensations only ever given to me by one,
None other then him.
D Apr 2014
I sat in a room full of people today
I didn't or barely knew at all
I sat there the whole time thinking, wondering,
Staring blankly at the wall

I jotted down a few notes here and there,
Mostly nonsense with no real purpose,
Now here is the interesting part my dear,
Someone else sat there, you've got three guesses

It wasn't Ronald of the McDonald
Or Mickey Mouse of the club house
One more guess, Oh! You've got it,
It was a couple, the very one I wrote about

My god, were they ever happy
I ******* envied them, hated their smiles
It made me sick to my stomach to watch them laugh
And I had to watch them for a long while

You may wonder what made me so angry?
Well I suppose I forgot to mention,
My boyfriend was also present in the room
But instead of happy all we felt was tension

An old routine I'm quite sick of
But the only reason for it is me
Knowing this while watching them
Well, it was plain misery

Oh lets play one more guessing game!
Come on, can you guess what I'll do next?
Well I'm going over to my boyfriends house
And I'm going to talk, talk, talk off his head

*Wish me luck, I hope this goes well...
It's actually more complicated than I make it seem
