We all care but do we care enough?
She had such good things
but also too many that were rough.
Too many thoughts made her cry
too many people didnt care enough
so then alone, she died.
I am overly obsessed with 13 Reasons Why

“I’m pretty sure they write books about the kind of love we have”
O.K

Welcome to my fairy tale
Olivia A Keaton Feb 2018
perplexity* is loving someone that you maybe shouldn’t.

perfection is the way you would scrunch up your nose when I spoke.

beauty is missing you when everyone says that I can’t.

enthralling
that’s you, absolutely and totally enthralling. fascinating, important. perfect.

the delight of emotional rhythms
in a song that explains everything
the feeling of choking
but in a way of pleasure
from reading some article of writing
that jerks more happy tears than sad
the magnetic pull to someone
that equally balances your life
*this is my euphoria

And I got caught in the rain,
nothing like a few sky teardrops to hide my pain.

but my feelings are stupid
I can't understand them at all.
so that's when I curse the leaves,
with them, I fall
O.K
Olivia A Keaton Jun 2019
From the heavens, the most pure snow
Rain, again from above
Little did I know, I was falling too
not down to earth, but in love.
O.K
I constantly find myself reflecting on my relationship before it became what it is now and I truly begin to wonder how long my heart had been yearning for something so beautiful.
Olivia A Keaton Sep 2016
Many people think fall is sad
However I don't think Fall is all that bad

Death of grass and leaves is not the object of focus during the Fall
There are things like colors and leaves around you
Now the good things, don't you see them all?
its kind of bad an I'm sorry but I'm kind of in gifted right now so..
Olivia A Keaton Apr 2017
what can I say
I am attracted to you
perhaps in the most fatal way
you have the most beautiful dangers
a nice little story
which has too literal cliffhangers
I'm searching for something new
perhaps a better story
but I cant get over you
wow
thats funny I swear I got over him
and i didnt think I liked you
until you happened to be in my dream.
This love sick girl is a danger to society
and I cant believe that for once
even in a dream you liked me
Olivia A Keaton Oct 2016
How can I be so
faulted?

When I say things and
trip
over my words.

When I try and make poems but my
writers block
gets in the way.

When I try and think
my thoughts
make Pandora's box's contents seem not so violent.
Tøp reference there ;)
Olivia A Keaton Feb 2018
do you feel it too?






feel the falling like I do?

round and round
actually, it's pretty slow
but when it's all done,
I don't really know where to go.

the wind in my hair,
a smile on my face
and that's when I think,
"why would I ever leave this place?"

papers will burn eventually
their fire will rise
it will hush the smoke

When someone asks what 5 or 10 things you would grab if your house was on fire,
you never really consider that your house could catch fire.

Flames*
The embers of love grow into flames

After that marriage and baby names
Olivia A Keaton Dec 2019
My twin flame!
My burning heart's passion!
Dance with me and strike this fire back to life.
Touch and caress me with your burning, desiring hands.
Burn holes into my skin with your fire-lit eyes
and maybe for a second, I become shy,
starting to flicker out.
Then kiss me with the force of an uproar of engulfing flames,
making us the comfortable type of warm once again.
Explore me and fill me with your heated passion,
use me for my warmth as I use you for yours.

Give me this fire of passion
allow me to be swallowed up in the flames
but do it quickly please,
before I flicker out.
Fire, a beautiful thing, isn't it?
Olivia A Keaton Apr 2017
There's something so
t    n    l
    i     g    y

and
beautiful
about him being in a forbade love.
Something that replaces the salt of the sea
with the salt of tears both happy and sad
There's something so
c o m f o r t i n g
and
amazing
about being able to feel
that someone will love you always
no matter the disapproval
*lets view this love in a different way

What am I meant to do when my donut buddy has started something new?

Olivia A Keaton Dec 2016
I'm no longer in your mind
forgotten
is what you call me
you simply look over my withering frame
as if you are simply blind.
I sit all alone; gathering all of this dust
broken
is what I am
my heart slowly waning
it's a wonder I haven't began to rust.
I notice now I'm nothing but a forgotten toy
without a cause
never more am I useful
but sometimes I can't help but wonder,
"could I bring another joy?"
Prompt: write a poem based on forgotten toys.

isn't he beautiful
with his forest eyes
that have a few ocean raindrops?
isn't he charming
with that sunshine smile
with a few glints of sadness?
isn't he wonderful
with his award-winning personality?

*i love all of this about him,
       and more
O.K
oops. I think I'm falling.
Olivia A Keaton Dec 2017
deep in the night, when reality is out of my sight, ((though its blurred anyway)), I see you. You’re there. Through the haze wondering of sweet things and pretty days. No, you don’t see me, but I can see you. Your eyes, a beautiful night sky with stars made of dew. I watch carefully from a far not wanting to ***** you away, and I swear I could wonder about you all day. You’re a beautiful creature too far to touch, but maybe again I’m asking too much. I can see your sadness, yes it’s there, and there’s nothing I can do but kind of just stare. You’re beautiful baby, darling, oh dear, I just wish you knew I were here.

the forbidden kiss
something so bad
how can it make me feel like this?

i tend to forget the different moons
when we can make a beautiful sky
a sunset in the afternoon.

you make me feel wanted can't you see
thats a lot for our love
and you do it for me.
Im having dreams of him
Olivia A Keaton Jun 2017
I write too much about being sad
like a broken camera, my focus is bad.
For once, tonight I will write of joy
and how when I blush I think, oh boy.
I will tell of the people I really like
but not right now, not tonight.
O.K
I am very tired, but I haven't posted for a while.

when i was a clumsy toddler
of course you caught me when i fell.

when i had grown a little,
i remember well,
you held onto me while we slept,
so i wouldn't fall off of the couch to the blue carpet.

now, as I'm older,
you don't catch me as much.
Thank you for not always catching me when i fall,
but rather helping me pull myself back up to stand when i land.

i think that's maybe more important.
O.K
Fun
Olivia A Keaton Nov 2016
Fun
i like to swing on creaky swings
go outside, lie down in the grass and listen to the birds sing.
I like to take walks in the woods and spend time in the sun
I guess this is just my kind of fun.
Now it's getting chilly
and my lack of fun is really quite silly.

I still enjoy the fun
And I know,
that when every day is done
another sunrise
makes me love life so.

When things break,
if the pieces are big enough
you can fit them back together
to create something whole once more.
The thing is,
I don’t know,
do. not. have. a. clue.
how to break beautifully.
I don’t know how to shatter perfectly,
into a million pieces
so that when a person passing by
maybe cares enough to open the curtain
to shine sunlight on me,
my pieces will shimmer and glisten
beautiful glass in the sun.

But I don’t know,
I just do not know,
how to break beautifully.

Have you ever had that
"I'm sitting here with no clue"
kind of feeling after
you thought you had just cleansed yourself of
everything in the shower?
And have you ever
well
hoped that that's exactly what you had done?
Saying goodbye to everything as it went down the drain.
Have you ever just sat in your bed,
shower thoughts filling your mind
when nothing is even on your mind at all?
Begging, pleading, silently waiting
for a word or a hint of one
to escape from your open mouth.

This is what happens when you become glazed,
but not a donut.

Lord knows I have been in love.
You know that punch in the gut,
right where the butterflies flutter,
sort of head-over-heels feeling,
everyone seems to talk about it?
Yeah that's the one.

I've felt that way recently,
and yet it was forever ago.

and an author once said,
"it's getting dark, let's open
the curtains a little bit."

Love
grows.

Do me this one favor, dearest reader:
read that again.

Love grows.
Like maybe a type of flower.?

It can start out as nothing and
then bloom into something so beautiful.

Love grows.
Maybe outward.?

A womb of a mother,
growing, growing, outward.

Love grows.
Maybe, and sadly, apart.?

Outward, Inward, Apart, and Up.
Just let my love be enough?
O.K
many distractions are coursing through my brain today, friends

sickness and poison once ate at her chest
illness took over her kind face and she began to age before her time.
can you imagine the trauma? probably not.
the blackness and the vines that enclosed her,
the white rooms, blinding lights
the sunken face and the worry still.
all proves that she's strong, wouldn't you think?
that she's grown, an adult woman.
but she's with this demon
his hair is red because it was the devil's favorite color.
his smile is wicked and his eyes are cold with everyone he meets.
she sees this cold, wicked hell.
there's no love. only using and abusing
so may I say this
I love you
I hate him
We all do
so find that strength that beat the scariest darkness
and
Grow. Up.

I get in these awful awful habits.

Ones that make me want to talk to you,
first thing and last thing in the day.

Ones that make it hard to sleep when I’m not falling asleep to your voice.

Ones that make me give my absolute best to you.

Ones that slowly slowly **** me.
Ones I can not break.
O.K

Olivia A Keaton Oct 2017
it's really hilarious that
I spend my time trying to
make you smile when you're sad.
yet all you've done,
is ignore me and
that makes me feel bad.
you're welcome though I guess,
because my heart is stupid
and it loves you nonetheless.

Well hello Abigail!
You look gorgeous, it's true.
Your smile and laugh really fits you.
Even though you fret or stress about your hair being undone,
it doesn't take away from you, always a load of fun.
I really love you, like a lot.
You make me happy even if I'm not.

I hope you have a wonderful day, my brilliant cousin, no, my sister in disguise. <3

Today you grow older,
Though it may not seem
And I'll try to sing a song to you
but phone conversations aren't my sort of thing.
Dad I love you beyond words and I just pray
that prayers, love, and kindness,
surround you on this special birthday.

Wish I were there to celebrate with you!
xoxo
Olivia A Keaton Jun 2017
Believe me when I say that
I love you
because boy it sure is the truth.
I love how one look
in my eyes allows you
to read my emotions and make me feel better.
I love how your
sighs and shrugs make me laugh
as we walk through a too
crowded store.
I love that even when our time
with each other is over,
I hold on to every second
of our hug, as I feel you do the same.
I love how you get me
every word, look, or laugh
we share a heart and a mind
and I love you for that.
O.K
I know no one that is even close to comparing to my dad and I love him so much. I'm glad to say that no one knows me better.

And here I am,
the happiest I’ve ever been.
All because I’m in love,
and he happens to be my best friend.

When he sings to me at night,
it’s music to my ears.
I go to sleep,
for in my head is filled with beauty, love, and light.

I love him so much,
that silly spoon.
I just keep waiting for the day
when “now” is instead of “soon”.

For him I will wait,
and I would walk miles.
For him, he is worth it.
He is worth while.

Tomorrow the sun will rise
just as it has
Oh so many times

and it just so happens that she just might....

I know it's not my best but oh well.

I turn to this old site
to write some poetry
just because it might
help soothe me to sleep.

I never go to bed on time
so to help me
I think of a rhyme
maybe two; just for you.

Tomorrow when I wake
I'll know that writing this poem
is probably a mistake
and I know at school I'll be no count.

So poetry help me dream
drifting away
sometimes poems aren't what they seem...
My brain is begging to find sleep, but technology has ruined me.

I got a henna tattoo.
It’s a cute infinity sign with “forever” written as part of it. it’s in cursive.

I got it because it fascinates me.
How forever is a small part of infinity and how neither should have to exist. Nothing lasts that long.

Except love and hatred.
I have the one that makes me sick to my stomach when you’re sad and I can’t fix it.
