cortisone vol.2
alexandra Jul 2018
U
were never there

left alone without U
when I first realized
I cried

I am nothing to you.
But to me
U
are everything

I am a disposable object
a mirage
broken

U
are not me
without me
u are whole

cortisone vol.1
alexandra Jul 2018
how you make me feel
it consumes my mind
entertains me, captivates me, holds me in a cell
my feelings wanting to break free
yet
my lips are sealed

when you ask me who do you want
I say nothing
enslaved by my own will
I dont want to speak

you know I want you
I can't hide my actions
my speculations are driving me crazy
I am trapped
I am trapped

what if I spoke
more than just a stupid joke
I would be free
I could be me

Freedom of feeling
it is liberating
also deteriorating
decorating
heart-breaking
faking


when feelings are like a fragile glass
shattered at the slightest shake

is it  really worth
risk taking

fallen
alexandra Jun 2018
falling for someone

is it meant to kick you down
cut you up and bruise you
coating you
in a
shiny coat of red

pain mixes with emotions of love
hides behind words
feelings
actions
contorting itself into pleasure

blame others
it isn't your fault

but

only your blood
comes out of

your body

when you,

fell.

canvas mentality
alexandra Jun 2018
paintbrush strokes brush the canvas
each bristle individually placed upon a blank slate
nothing but color as an image of her thoughts
put up as a masterpiece for everyone to admire

behind the beauty of the artwork
hides the blank canvas
no bristles, nothing but a clean slate
for the painter to paint away their thoughts

fall
alexandra Jun 2018
outside the world is dying
yet all we see is bright colours
and beautiful sights

as we eat pie
and breathe in the crisp air
we can't face the truth,

the leaves are dead

and so are our hearts.

End

End
All good things do not last
flowers wilt, grass turns brown
The smile turns to a frown
There will always be a goodbye,
for even the day must die

Wandering Thoughts
alexandra Jul 2017
Alone in body and mind
Nothing to do but pass the time
Thinking about you next to me
Is a sad reality I will never foresee
It is hard to stop my mind from wandering,
into the unknown places where only my insecurities leave traces
When I long for something so unattainable
Wandering thoughts are not so stable

Feel
alexandra Jul 2017
A touch to the heart

Grabs you by the hand

Hand to heart

Feeling is the push of a man

Coloured Thoughts
alexandra Jul 2017
The lies became washed away in the colours of paint

Diluted in the truth bestowed in the cleansing water.

The dirt coloured remains fill the water and the mind

Reminding us of what once was something beautiful yet so empty

Roads
alexandra Jul 2017
Twist, turn roads they wind
Up and down through hills they climb
Endless, yet ending

— The End —
