I go from
Tear to tear
Flowing with
Each drop
That falls..
I land with it.
Fear,
Afraid of
A what if?
That the question
In my head,
Whining
And doubting..
I want it
To end.
But then
Nothing will be..
And I'll be me.
Fear comes..
Afraid,
I am
all over again.
I'm starting to write how I used too♡

I want all of you
And it's all true
I want you,
I just want to love you.
Give me your love
And I will cherish
All of our memories
I don't want to forget
About you.
So just give me all
Of you
And love me too.

i came close
to you..
almost
made you laugh
i even hoped
to make your day
but
isn't it great
oh shouldn't it
be great
that you already found
the one
your only one
who can light up
your days..
maybe even
make you
laugh
harder than i-
i could never..

I almost came
close
to knowing
you.

A Simple Shoe
He yells
And she nags.

It's pointless
To argue.

But they don't see what I see.

I see them go over the top
Like if someone had just murdered someone
But in reality someone just stole a simple shoe.

And that simple shoe was mine,
Yes I know
It's just a shoe
But do they know?

No.

They don't hear what I hear.

All this screaming for the same outcome,
The same results.

Silence.
“Normal”.
They are just blinded by there true selfs.

you make
me feel
at ease..
just your voice
alone
gets me
through
the night..
oh please
just whisper
to me..
tell me all
that you have
to offer
and i promise
that i won't
daze off
cuz i know
how hard
it could be
to finally
open up to
somebody
and let
your guard
down
just for a second
anything
could happen
and maybe
this time
it will be
worth it..
to finally
just be
at ease..
you make me feel at ease <3

Beg
Becoming bored, and
Eventually, soon
Going to stop, typing.
Gosh, I really do like simple poems..

"You are poison to the tongue
But
At least you taste like lemon lime punch.

I can't get over the sour of your voice,
It even gives me anxiety with it's overwhelming taste of sweet bitterness.

Let me overdose with the sound of your sour voice.
I figured if anything,
At least I can lie down with the silence of your bittersweet words and this quiet will help me sleep at night.
And
Yet
I know,

You are still poison to the tongue
But

At least you taste like lemon lime punch."
//oof, idk if this makes sense..

Eye gives out a blood red.
And
Everything fades away.

Try to maintain a blank face
But
Mind is out of place.

Now missing some marvels
And can't seem to find them.

Trip and fall down a empty hall
Where the pieces are.

Try to grab them all
But once more,
Trip and fall through an open door.

Hoping to catch my breath,
Breathing in and coughing out.

Air is toxic with smoke
That buries thoughts
And cancels out the same

Losing steps and gaining nothing
Vision still varies shades of red
Trying to keep up but lose faith
Lost in track and can't go back
Stay still so nothing leaves
But everything is quickly fading

One flash and gone

Now the black mist stays
Tell me meaning?
Riya Nov 2020
careful now..shh
the sound
it's returning..
why? i-
i don't know
they seem okay
though.. i-
i'm not quite sure
if i should be-
be afraid
or surrender my-
my thoughts
my fears
my doubts
then what will i be?
what will it be?

careful now..shh
the sound is growling
feed it something
Quick. Fast. Now.
give in please.
I'm trying to write more cx
Riya Dec 2019
Dear voice,
Oh come to me.
Speak those soft..
Soft words, slowly
Now
cuz I need it
More than ever
Before.
Oh baby, baby
Why must you
Ignore my words
Oh maybe, maybe
You're just
Plain forgetful.
Yet you can still say
Sweet nothings
To me.
See now you're just
Being cruel
Making up excuses.
Oh why, why
Am I putting up
With your bs

Dear voice,
Please come back to me.
Speak those sweet..
Sweet little lies
Of yours.
Cuz I need it, now.
More than ever
Before.
Yup.

You..

Riya Jan 2019
My feelings still linger
Towards you.
Still attached
To this idea of a what if-
That will never come true.
I know I confessed a thousand times
And
I know that
These scars on my heart will stay the same.
I also know that
How you view me will stay the same.

I can't help but hold on to a what if.
Yippp~
//Why can't I write more happy poems.
Riya Nov 2020
i thought
so much
about it all
this and that
too many of this
too little of that
too many thoughts
and so little eyes
to see it all
unravel.
i need-
i want-
others to see
my random words
of nonsense..
to feel noticed
for my mind.
i think
i'm ready
to leave
my old thoughts here..
to create something better
somewhere else but here.
my last poem here..

Riya Dec 2019
One day you'll see me crying
And I won't know what to say
But you'll just hold my hand
And hug me cuz you can.
Then you'll say..
"I love you anyways."
And
Even though I'll feel ugly
You'll say..
"you are still beautiful to me."

I imagine..
One day we will be outside
Looking at nothing
Talking about nothing
Just silence
And your presence
That will be enough for me.

I cry now
Cuz I'm just imagining
That you're here with me.
I'm just giving myself false memories
But also something to look forward to.

I imagine everything
Like if you were here
And I love every second of it.
Riya Nov 2019
That smirk you have on
That brings so much joy to me
I just smile and laugh
Cuz I have to
Cuz I need to
Cuz I want to
Be with you.
I just got to
Be closer
And hold you
Be there for you
And
Love you
I just got to-
I just got to
Be with you.

People say you have to be positive
You have to smile when you can
You have to cry when you can
You just have to sort of way.

I don't get any of it.

Can't I be- or feel
Nothing?
Can I be 'okay'? For once.
As in I'm neither sad nor mad-
Kind of way.

Can't I feel like
I don't care about anything
And not worry for once.

Yeah, it might be bad
To feel numb.

But I don't care at the moment.

I don't care at all, right now.
When my friends or whoever I tell about how I feel. When I tell them I'm just OKAY.
Riya May 2020
I don't get why
all the time
when I say nice things
the words betray me
and attack me.
was I too much
again?
I don't get why
my words have to mean so much
when sometimes
they don't..
mean anything.. at all.
they just read too much..
I can't help
but ruin everything.
it's a cycle.
nice words
can mean everything
to someone.. I guess.
I don't get why
I have to be
the one to blame..
I wasn't speaking
in code.. was I?
did I say something nice
to just be nice? yes.
now is that such a crime..
I didn't ask for the reaction..
but blame is still put on me.

nice words
equal
I love you.. i guess.
I hope you guys can relate..

a little bit
blunt

oh-so soon..
too soon.
and

You say you love us
But that's a lie.
You say you just borrow
But you steal.
You say you can't choose
But you can.
You say you are fine
But you're not.
You act all loving
But you're just fronting.
And so
You say that cigs are your babies
Now that's actually true.
Because you my dear
Have told that to us.
Yes, it's a addiction
But if you even cared about us AT ALL,
You would try.
Dispite how stressed you are.

One cigarette can't help you.
Your family can.
Please be open to any sort of help.
Riya Jun 2019
I'm overthinking this again.
I can't help it though.
You make me this way.
My thoughts are only you.
Your voice,
Your grin, and
Your laugh.
All blissful memories
String together to make me
Remember your everything.
Maybe I'm not overthinking it all.
I just can't help it though.
You make me feel this way.
All my thoughts are you
And I love it.
Yaaaa...
Riya May 2019
Pale face, blue eyes.
Can't wait, this time.
Too late but it's fine.
Hopefully you'll keep me
In mind.
Ya, I wrote something random... that turned out to be true...weird.

Feelings are on pause..
feeling kind of lost..
don't know where to go..
kind of on my own..
I know I should be strong..
but how am I
supposed to be
calm..
it's overwhelming to feel..
am I going alone
after all..
feelings are fleeting..
why can't I
keep them
under control..

Rosy cheeks,
Bright eyes, and
A careless smile.

I'm perfectly blinded
by you.

Contagious laughter,
Deep voice, and
An honest heart.

I'm perfectly infatuated
with you.
Maybe this is about them ♡~
Riya Dec 2018
I walk and walk,
But I'm walking the wrong way.
I hear and hear,
But I'm misunderstanding some things.
I look and look,
But all I see is blurry shapes.
I talk and talk,
But all that comes out is nonsense.
Just pure nonsense.
Riya Nov 2020
I always wonder
If I'm just
On my own
Thoughts
Without any
One
To know me
But
Do they care
Like I care?
I always wonder.
Riya Aug 2018
Let it be
As though
We are falling
Into a dark abyss,
To drown
In our self doubt,
To be so-
So broken
That we lose all of our pieces.
And
Shall we-
Shall we find them together,
Let us fly
And fall with each other.
Then-
Maybe the fall down won't be so bad.
Riya Nov 2018
Wind blows
Scent of familiar rises
Hair sways with the breeze
Fingers tap with muse
Eyes blink with thoughts
Feet walk with carelessness and determination
Backpacks filled with knowledge
Hands stuffed with distractions

Still sitting and waiting.
Yeeep

silence,
it's my worst
enemy..
it can ****
someone..
if it isn't
too careful
feeding each
thought
that comes
to mind
toxic waste
flowing within me
giving each
****** new thought
a deeper meaning
and another reason
to worry
and worry
until you,
yourself
don't know why
you were stressing out
to begin with..
and there goes
another sleepless night..

i want to love someone
and be loved in return.
i want to care about someone again.
i want this emptiness to go away
and to be filled with something else other than my self-love.
sometimes, you just need someone else to worry or care for you.

i just want someone to love.
And to be loved in return.
//THANKSS!! Nap dreeeeam!! for reminding me that I'm a lonely individual!

[Yesterday]
I am surrounded by Individuals laughing
And sharing jokes.
But
Me and them were still ignoring the fact that
The people in front of us were only there to help -
Help us see a choice that could happen if we do
Make that one wrong choice.
And I do honestly fear -
Fear that one will still make that one wrong choice
And hurt someone in the process.
--
But today -
Today was an eye opener to say the least.
And at first it was painless and jokes were said.
But
There he was
An actual person
Speaking to us.
A person who experienced something so horrific
That you -
Yourself wish to never experience..
Ever.
And now tears were had and hugs were shared.
And a silence began.
Everyone was silent.

And I too was silent.
Most probably did not listen to them...but you just got to hope they did.
Riya Mar 2020
I'm too much
Sometimes..
I whine too much
All the time..
I can't sleep much
Mind is numb..
Can't think straight
Anymore..
I'm so unsure
How anything is
Suppose to be..
Am I really me
Or am I lying to you
About me

Am I too much..
Am I?
I hope this makes sense..

Take up too much

Wish it away.

Make up pure nonsense
And forgetfulness.

These tears
Will leave.

You just don't-
Don't know why..

In the first place.
I've been wanting to write about what I felt and I finally did. I just had to stop thinking.

“I can't breathe.
I'm suffocating.
I feel sad, maybe.
But I don't care, yeah I don't care.
I'm still moving with the flow,
I'll just have to get myself in check, with reality.
I need to find another way to feel sane.
Yeah, I need to find another way to feel something else but bleak.

I can't breathe.
I'm drowning with these sick thoughts.
Maybe I'm insane, I can't help it.
Oh, why do I have to feel this way.
Can't I just feel stable for once, sane for once, or anything but sad for once.

Can't  I
Just feel
Something else
For once.”

I really hate it when I can't cry
Or when I feel like crap
And I can't complain about it
I really hate this feeling
Of not feeling.
I want to scream
But why would I?
Why yell for no reason?
Why would you even try?
Can't even think of a reason to
Do anything...anymore.
Riya Oct 2018
"You were nice and kind
But you were also sometimes hurtful
And mean towards Mother.
But I try not to remember that.

You were wise
But you were also ignorant at times.

I would hope you did say, sometimes
"I love you" to me.
But I bet you didn't.

As time went on
You had changed or
I did.

And I now realize,
That you are a spiteful and angry human being.
Who thought he cared for his family but instead only cared for himself.

Sometimes I just wish, one day.
You will just say
"I love you" and mean it.

But I don't believe you ever will
And I don't think we will ever be close again.

Although, I will come back.
It will not be because of you.
But only for them.

So .. bye."

I'm getting a little sick
sick of this
always worrying about you
when you can't
can't even listen to me
am I whispering..
are my words going mute..
do they even
even mean anything

Remember,
You have a heart
Even if
It has scars
Or
Feels weak.

Even though it doesn't beat
Or stops for anyone.

Doesn't mean you don't have a heart.
You are still sane

You do love.
You do care.

You just love too much
That it ends up
Killing you from
The inside
And out.

You love until
You feel like you can't anymore.

And in time
Someone will do the same thing to you.
And
It probably already happened.

Someone's heart has beaten
And stopped for you.
You are loved
And
Cared for.

Even if you don't know it.

You are loved.

Even when you can't love yourself.
Idk...

would you

that the words
mean more than
just meaningless
sentences on a page..
would you even try

actually understand
