#always poems on Hello Poetry

Lex Jan 2018

Sometimes
I look outside and watch the rising sun
not for any particular reason
just for fun

Sometimes
I go to the kitchen and start to dance
not with anyone else
just myself and the pans

Sometimes
I cry until the oceans are dry
not because of someone else
just for the others who die

Sometimes
I get so mad I just want to go fight
not to inflict pain on anyone
but because some do to cause fright

Sometimes
I try too hard to find love
not because i'm desperate
but I don't always feel it from above

Sometimes
I don't see the truth in front of me
not because It's not there
but because I choose not to see.

Most of the time what you're looking for is right in front of you,
you just may not want to accept that that's what it is.
Much love for you all. <3

Roots

People don't really ever change
They stay the same
They have one home they go back too
One smell that brings them back when they close their eyes
There's always one lover they remember more than others
Always that one home cooked meal that they crave
One person they long to see after years apart
There's one gravestone they will fix the crooked flowers of
One old friend they wish they hadn't lost track of over time

There is always the same roots to one tree even if the branches fall off
People don't really ever change

Standard

Lonely candle blinking bare,
Sultry darkness- illuminate
to Glowing silhouettes I stare
& solemnly appreciate.

Looking Up

Spending my whole life, looking down,
with tears falling on God's acre,

Hoping flowers would grow,
never seeing roses bloom.

Never realizing,
you left this place long ago.

Until that fateful day,
God gave me the gift,
to see a short glimpse of Heaven
with you standing there with Angel wings.

Your love, waiting for me in Heaven.

Today I look up at Heaven's stars,
sharing your love with others,
through words and pictures, every day.

Thanatus Angel of Death Jan 2018

Untitled

Mercy the one who no longer feels
She has been through a lot
Bless her who gives to people
She has nothing for herself
Love her who loves everyone
She has always been alone.
Have pity on her.
She is tired.
Death is her only resolve now.

And there i felt something. A realization that i have a lot of friends but i am always alone.

loop

Despite how
invincible
I feel now
in this moment
surely sometime
today or tomorrow
I'll be beginning
to feel the
opposite again

Home Is Where The Heart Is

I've got a dark place in my heart.
A place that likes hurt,
A place that accepts abuse,
And in this place I find solace,
I find warmth and confusing joy,
So hit me as hard as you can,
Beat me until I can cry no more,
But never say you'll leave me.
That, I could not endure.

I'm trying to find new coping mechanisms.

Always Burgeoning

I'm not the girl who thrives on being in a relationship
I'm not the girl who moves around like a ship
I'm not the girl who just "takes a dip"
just for the sake of trying.

I'm not the girl who will kneel and bow
I'm not the girl who will wipe the sweat off his brow
I'm not the girl who will just let him plow
right on over me

I'm the girl who will drive you mad
I'm the girl who isn't "bad"
I'm the girl who makes the fads
I'm the goody-goody

I'm the girl who is still a ******
I'm the girl who will continue to burgeon
I'm the girl who will never go to a surgeon
just so I can be the same

I'm the girl who will give you all my heart
I'm the girl who been broken from the start

so love me if you can
I don't expect you to understand
That I don't need you to be "grand"
I just need you to be mine.

To burgeon=to grow or rapidly flourish.
