#chasing poems on Hello Poetry

Cayley Raven Mar 2020

Face

Your face has become a memory
unpleasant and feared
One horror of a face
The same one
I used to
chase

An unlucky choice of a life partner.

i need to stop chasing you
because i can never catch up

Chasing

Chasing you is like chasing the stars
I am sure that I would never reach
Chasing you is like chasing a dream
You would be gone once my alarm rings
Chasing you is like chasing shadows
You are there but I could never hold

not another tear to fall

body shaking
lips trembling
slowly feeling numb
trying to hold it back

heart pounding
heavy breathing
fear creeping in
how long should i hold back

still hoping
but slowly wishing
i could let go
and not hold back

always wishing
i wasn't the one chasing
and now realizing
another tear fell from my eyes

Chasing Sunshine

Velvety sunshine
Fields of golden marigolds
Chasing cirrus clouds
✨✨

While on a road journey to hometown!! :)

Don't you know

Sitting there
Embraced in all the noise
My heart was sinking

Again

Don't you know
Don't you know the power you have over me

A word can make me drown
A look can make me lost
A touch can leave me breathless

And I dare to chase you

make me say

What's the point in asking you for help?
Only makes more problems
What the hell
Much more simple
just to slip away
Goodness god
Don't make me have to say
it

Let's pretend we've never met before
Would you leave
or would you ask for more?
Look at me
and say it isn't true
Shamefully
you've wanted all this too

Over and over again
until it's gone
That's the price you pay for what you've done
Shifting rhythms
messing with the time
Chasing after
what's not really mine

breathless

I hate that time
passes.
Even if right now isn’t perfect,
it wouldn’t get worse
if time didn’t run away
so fast.
I’m breathless from chasing it,
I’m sore,
everything hurts.
one day I’ll
collapse,
and maybe then time will finally
stop.

I’m tired and scared

Chasing Dreams

When chasing a dream never
                 run up the steps.

We should always tread
                                       carefully.

As dreams are only worth
                                chasing

if we take our time.

As nothing ever comes fast,
we may misstep
                            and miss the mark
             we wanted to land upon.

Hustle Rhythm

When it gets too much and I feel like giving up, I remember why I started in the first place
Remember how I crossed boundaries for this
I used to skip class and catch rides with strangers for this
Broke mama's heart and papa's trust on the way
Broke a couple church rules,I became a mess everyday
Did it Just so I could fill the empty void in my heart
Did it just so I can start counting checks not test marks
