To all the women out there
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
You are beautiful
No matter your size, skin color, religion or sexuality
Don't ever let anyone doubt that
Life would be boring without diversity

You are beautiful
and the lenght of your dress tonight doesn't justify anyone calling you a **** nor gives them permission to grab your tight
Only you can give them consent
And remember to say no is your right

You are beautiful
wear those strechmarks with pride
They are perfectly normal and natural
Don't look at them as flaws
Your body is a miracle that you don't need to hide

You are beautiful
Don't forget to love yourself

I hate that I love you
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I hate that I care so much
I hate how much you affect my day
How when you text me I feel alive
but when you are ignoring me the next day I die a little bit inside

Why would you paint such a beautiful  picture in my head
When you know you can't love me back
Your thoughts are still going to a different girl but mine keep holding onto you
How do I do this? We are both hurting but for different lovers

I wish we could work
I wish you would realize that I would give you my world but no you don't care as much as I do I am just a rebound for all you knew
And you know what I hate the most?
I hate that after all you put me through I am still in love with you

If I could I would date the sky because sometimes there's a storm but it quickly comes by and the sun always rises again
But with you the thunder never ends

God you are so complicated

Untitled III.
rosecoloredpoet Sep 2018
I only write when I'm sad
Does that make me mad?
When I wish to be dead
And all these holded tears are shed
I turn to poetry and suddenly life's not as bad
I don't know what I would do without it

Fool for you
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I feel like a fool laying in my bed opened eyes,  my thoughts are sad
I am blaming insomnia but that's not what's keeping me awake
            It's the thought of you
Your gorgeous smile, your deep green eyes
        running through my head
          You are calling me baby
        but do you really mean it?
        Overthinking, imaginating
         I am wishing I was dead
Can we make it or should we break it    before one of us gets hurt?
I am a fool a fool for your presence
    Is this a broken heart in making?

Gorgeous sunflower
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
What a gorgeous sunflower you are
warm like a hot sunny day in the park
Little glowing light in the dark

Soft like freshly baked bread
I can't get enough of you
Your polaroid pictures are stuck in my head

I breathe you in as if it was my last breath
Your scent makes me lose the grip of reality
All I want to do now is to take you to my bed
So we can travel to
                                     infinity

When in your presence there's no worry
You only make me feel so holy
I want to be closer to your divine
I'll do everything to make you happy
If you agree to be mine

Rejection
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
It's there again
The feeling of rejection planted inside my heart
I feel it growing bigger and bigger with every passing day
                       like a tree
     the roots are tearing me apart
it hurts not only emotionally but physically too
and it's all happening just because of you

          Filling my lungs with dust
         I can't breathe, I can't speak
Despite the torture my eyes are still filled with hopeless lust

     Now I am covered up with leaves    
The branches are slowly suffocating me
           Pinning me to the ground
                I need to get back up
           I need to escape somehow
      What if this feeling never leaves?

Here for you
rosecoloredpoet May 2018
Inside you there's a soul
So beautiful yet so torn
Baby let me love away the pain
Being with you is the only thing that's keeping me sane
We'll get through all of this together
You should know that I'm here for you whenever
Because you're my priority
Let's grant eachother serenity

Fragile glass
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
If you only knew that it was partly your fault that I felt this way
Because I don't know where I stand with you and it's making me insane

I am screaming
Trying to get you to notice
But you never seem to hear my cries
What exactly are your motives?
What's behind those little lies?

Maybe you are just like me
made from a fragile glass
Scared to let anybody in
Scared you'll be broken into pieces
But trust me I won't ever let this happen
and if it does happen I will put you together
Always

Questioning my existence
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I am
    am
         m
         am I?
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
Loving you should be considered as a form of self harm

You are cold and I try to distance myself but then for a split second you act warm again and I can't contain the butterflies flying from my belly to my back and my hands

Why do I always have to choose somebody like you?
Complicated, making me feel unwanted
How dare you give me hope and than take
everything away with a snap of your fingers

Please tell me why
I don't deserve this
Or do I? You make me question everything I do, every word I say, the way I move
My pulse is uncontainable, my head hurts and I can't sleep

I should have never let you in
I sensed you'll be trouble from the begining
But I couldn't help it and now I don't know if I am mad at you or mad at myself

Loving you IS a form of self harm
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
What if there were no words?
Would the comunication be harder or easier?
Would we overthink as much as we do right now?
Maybe we would imagine situations instead of phrases we've learned from bad movies

Our lifes would be ruled by actions
Not by silly games we play with letters

Looking at your eyes would have even deeper meaning because that would be the only way to get to know a piece of your mind

Maybe the connection between people would be deeper and more pure
no social media, loud ads or cursing
Just existing together in the wierd place that is the earth

Watching sunsets with you is the thing that I could do for the rest of my lifetime

I don't need anything else

Maybe one day
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
Maybe one day
We will run together through the meadows feeling the sun kissing our smiling faces
Leaving behind our dark shadows
Traveling to different places

Maybe one day
I will wake up feeling energized and optimistic
My thoughts will be clear, bright and realistic

Maybe one day
I'll start viewing the world like a child again
exploring everything with endless curiosity
cherishing every little detail
spreading only positivity

Maybe one day
I'll be waking up with you curled up next to me under the blankets
Hearing your raspy morning voice
Cooking you your favorite breakfest

Maybe one day
Love will conquer all the hatred
Everybody will be equal
No more discrimination or being manipulated

Maybe one day...

Emptiness
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
Sometimes I wake up and suddenly there's this feeling of emptiness inside
Like a part of me went missing during the night
I start to think about my life but only the bad memories come to mind and the happy ones subside

I guess I'm not satisfied with my life
My feelings on a bad day

Help me fix you
rosecoloredpoet Sep 2018
I don't know how much I can take
I fear eventually I'll break
Trying to hold the broken pieces of your heart and soul
But it's all so heavy
This weight I have to carry

What if my hands give up and let you go?
I don't want to let you go..
You need to try too
I can't fix you by myself even though I really want to
Happiness is a choice and I can't make that decision for you
Please just help me fix you
Promise me you'll try
I love you more then anything

Set me free
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
Trapped in an prescripted plan
Held back by unwritten rules of the human clan

I wander down the dark alleyways and I hear them whisper
You should do that! You should do this!
You're not a kid anymore stop the whimper!
Forget those foolish naive dreams!

As I get older those whispers get louder
I hear them scream
Go to college! Find a partner! Work from dust till dawn to satisfy the hunger for the papers so intoxicating, so beautifuly green!

But what is this for if it doesn't bring me joy?
What if I don't want to live the same boring life as they all did?
egoistic without purpose so horribly materialistic

No! That is not the path I want to take
I'll rather be broke than fake
I'll rather be single than in the arms of a snake
I'll rather be uncertain than certain about every little detail

Set me free so I can be what I was always destined to be
I'll find real happines for me and I don't need you all to agree
We sometimes think that we have to follow certain path that somebody had previously made for us but we often forget that we have the ability to build our own.

Changes
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
Ever since childhood I hated uncertainty
and I was scared of every little change that has happend
Even if it was something minor I sudenly felt different

But even though changes are terrifying they are necessary for us to grow
We have to step out of our comfortable bubble
In the end it teaches us that we are unbreakable

So I am walking through the paths of life
terrified but feeling alive

Hope
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
I've nearly lost all hope
Worried that no one will ever get me
That I am unworthy of love and closeness
Thought it was better to erase this part of me
It only made me feel so worhless

I've decided to never let anyone else in
To built around walls so hight that they could almost reach the sky
But than you came in and I felt a tiny spark go off again
While touching your skin

Making my stone cold heart feel a bit warmer
It took me by surprise
This was something I had forgotten
pushed to the back of my mind
And suddenly I see you in every sunrise

Broken together
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
We were both broken
Leaving pieces of us in memories from a happier past
Holding each other so we won't fall apart
Thank god I have you
Life's not that hard when you are standing by my side
Let's just keep following this path

Sometimes we trip over while we are chasing better tomorrows
Stumbling, twisting, losing the way..
But I know we'll be fine
if together we stay
I'll help you slowly forget your sorrows

Lean on me and I'll lean on you that's what you said to me and since then I knew we would be fixed eventually

Untitled II.
rosecoloredpoet Apr 2018
You've led me on
But at least now I know where to go
Before I was up in the clouds
Today I fell back on the rocky grounds

I am fine I tell to myself
In hope it will supress the pain
I try not to think about it
There's always a rainbow after a rain
right?

Please tell me that's the case
I can't stand the thought of your face
I need my save space a place where I can let it out
a warm embrace from someone I care about

Black ink
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
She had words splattered in ink all over her bare skin
Filling her with self doubt
Staining her confidence
Shutting her mouth

Everytime she was hurting a new word appeared
By this time there was no clean space left
The only color she saw was black and the blackest of all was her heart

The things you said are printed on her forever like the tattoo that you regret
She's desperately trying to forget

Scraping the words that once crushed her
Sadly they always appear again at night
They will never be gone

Messy room = Messy mind
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
Mess in my room and mess in my mind
Lately I've been obsessed with making these islands out of clothes on the ground
If the room is ***** that's how you know I've been depressed
and that's how I've been feeling for a long time to be honest

So please don't judge me I'm not lazy
The thoughts that I have are just making me crazy
and I am sorry I can't deal with my **** right now
I wish I could but I don't know how

Roller coaster ride
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
Don't bring my hopes up if you are just passing through
If you are planning on making them fall down in a small moment or two
I'm getting tired of this roller coaster you made me ride
It's giving me a nauseous feeling inside
I'm about to throw up all these hidden emotions on you
But I don't want to because I know that then I'll completely lose you
Why do you have to play me like that?

Slowly drowning
rosecoloredpoet Apr 2018
I need a life vest
Please put it on my chest
keep me floating above the water
Make me feel like I matter

I'm slowly drowning
reconcieled to the fate that's awaiting me
I feel my lungs shrinking
as the oxygen is leaving them
The gravity is pulling me

Deeper

Bubbles are rising from my mouth up to the surface
I'm getting coloser to the bottom of the dark blue sea
Closer to be freed of my curses that have been always tying me

Monster are living down there
maybe I've finnaly found a place where I belong
Somewhere where there's no air
Where nobody will think I'm wrong

Wave of numbness washes over my body
As I close my eyes for the last time
...

Beautiful lie
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
You are the reason can't you see?
I am begging you please stop crushing me
I am so tired of this
I can't remember the last time I woke up feeling ready for the day
I must let you go
you don't even want to stay

This is unhealthy and I know it so why am I always coming back?
I thought I was stronger than this but I guess I was wrong I am just a hopeless wreck

I think I fell for the idea of you and I find it hard to believe that the things I thought about you were just a beautiful lie, my deepest wishes projecting onto you
Now all that's left for me is to cry
rosecoloredpoet Mar 2018
My heart is pounding so fast it could almost  escape my ribcage and blow up
My fingers are cold and white as if the life in them wasn't present
My face pale and tired from the lack of sleep
I don't know how long I'll be able to last

I put on a fake smile to cover up the overpowering pain I hide indide of me
I don't want to hurt them with my hurt
They won't ever see me cry
Everyone has their own problems afterall
I'll rather pretend like everything is fine

What more is there to do? I'll just silently try to push through this suffering
They can't help me only your love could but you've disappeared and my sanity disappeared with you

Emotional hangover
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I woke up with an emotional hangover this morning
I think I felt too much yesterday
Is there a pill that I can take to save me before I break?
For the loss of myself I'm mourning

a stranger is staring at me from the reflection in the mirror now
I drown in silence as I go downstairs
I wish I could show you how
behind this fake smile I am restless

The coffee tastes so blunt
It won't help me today
It's like I've lost the ability to enjoy the things I used to love
Something has changed and I've lost myself along the way

Heavy
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
Biting my lips
Ripping the skin
Sitting, waiting, contemplating
My legs are shaking
Breaths breaking
palms are heavy
Heart is racing
Cold sweat
eyes full of fear
Tears running down my face
In need of an embrace
But no one else is here
306 · Feb 2018
Run faster
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I am a disaster
You better run faster
if you don't want to be pulled down the misery hole
These words are all unspoken
It's worse than being broken
living is a mystery fall

So don't you stay still
keep climbing up the hill
You don't want to be near this mess
Follow your wild instincts
Be driven by your feelings
That way you might escape the stress

Maybe one day you will save me
but today it's not the time
so don't look behind you and stay on the line

Daydreamer
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
I feel like I am living in my head
The outside world just doesn't seem real
It's more like a dream
Or should I say a nightmare?
Who will help me clear my thoughts?
Who will pull me out of despair? Will it be you?
I am all alone wide awake at midnight
Daydreaming about what my life could be if I changed my ways
You should be by my side but you said you needed space
finally I am seeing the light
It's the sun reminding me I haven't slept again
I promise I will treat you right
please don't break my soul again
270 · Feb 2018
Falling
rosecoloredpoet Feb 2018
The stars were falling and we were falling too
and that night I asked if you will let me stay with you
Because I never feel more at home than when I'm in your arms
and my biggest weakness is you staring into my eyes
We are like two planets being pulled together
I can't run from you and I would never
It doesn't have to be so hard
Just let me be yours and promise you'll be mine

— The End —
