I wish there was a magic potion, a magic button, or with the snap of my fingers, a way I could forget you.
If only life were that easy, my mind would be butterflies and rainbows.
Not reminders of you and what you did or the last thing you said.
But here we are, that one road, a simple song, a mere activity, and you come rushing back into my mind.
All those promises, all those late night talks.
You can't tell me that it was all *pretend
to you.
Because I know what we had was real.
What we had may not have conventional, but it was there.
There is no way you can deny those feelings, they were just too prominent to throw aside.
You see, you've managed to leave me in pieces, too broken to be mended back together.
Pieces that don't fit like a jigsaw puzzle.
I thought we had something but you left me with nothing and here I am, wondering why.
So ******* too, if you can be a ***** *so can I
.
I've deleted your texts and I hate when you snapchat me.
You're sure as hell not getting any back.
**I wish there was a magic potion, a magic button, or with the snap of my fingers, a way I could forget you.
Too many people in my life turn out to be *******, so this one's for all of you.

Can we get married in
the sea ? Swim our
way to the shore ?

Dress up fancy and let
me adjust your bow.

Can we knot our fingers
together and swim out
of the gentle waves ?

Feel the shells beneath
our toes and the love deep
in our bones.

Can we kiss under the water
as you place your hands
under my white fluffy
dress and grab me by
the heart and hips ?

Can we have some wild fun
as we hum the same
song along and our lips
kiss till they go numb ?  

While the salted water
wrinkles the skin on our
hands and feet.

As we exchange emotions
that are soft and sweet.

Can we get married in the
sea ?

Baby it'll be just you
and me I promise it'll be
oh so heavenly* ~

you'll find me
in a pile of rags
all alone
in some dark alleyway
stale cigarette
hanging from my mouth
broken bottle in my hand
faded picture in my back pocket
cuts down the length of my arms
bullet through my brain
& a broken heart
hidden under
my torn tshirt
// we all know how its gonna end //
My clenched fists beat against your chest as I screamed in the night.
You snuffed my thrash, clutched my hands in your own and hugged me tight.
I cried out in agony, angst of life unfair
You stood strong, held me, ran your fingers through my hair
White knuckles still balled up, nails cutting into my palm
Your loving whispers to me soothing my torn heart calm
With my hands firmly pressed close, still between us embraced
You laid pen in my hand for words not to be erased
A treasure among all the loving gifts you give me
Realization of self, found freedom,
MY poetry
From tears of the same salt, blood of the same veins, resonating heart,
The mind reveals the poets together, though still set apart
Means that it's been broken, aching and stepped on,
But still managed to love others without the fear of getting hurt again.

Myriah
I feel so empty today.
Sometimes I wish
I could stand here and
Fade away.
So that no one could
see the tears running
down my face.
She
She's a portrait that comes to life
Every night
And we can't catch up.
She's sheet of music that breathes
And then leaves
Stars flying behind us.
She's a Polaroid that makes you yearn
For a morn
Shrouded in floral musk.
A soldier, on the verge of giving up
Once proud, arrogant, and war ready
Now torn, battered, and stuck
His aim no longer steady
And his voice no longer crisp
He was once a proud man!
But now, he feels as if he's only a wisp.

The war had taken its toll
The soldier had grown weary
he is no longer whole
And his eyes had become teary

He doesn't want to fight
It is a war he cannot win
The man who was once a soldier
Had now lost his thick skin

The woman he had loved
no longer feels the same
The war is over
And another soldier is left in shame

"I cant even write"
she whispered.
"Don't", I said,
"You've already written
It all behind
sleeping lashes.
Come closer,
so I may read
from your eyes".

Creep
Strangers on the Internet exchanging texts
Surfing different sites every night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through

Something in your questions were so inviting
Something in your emojis were so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you

Strangers on the internet, two lonely people
We were strangers on the internet,
Up to the moment when I sent the first message

Little did we know
Love was just a text away
A warm embracing chat away

And ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first text, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers on the internet

Love was just a text away
A warm embracing chat away

Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first text, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers on the internet
strangers in the night
