Ideal am I for looking at,
The price of me is love,
Foolish is that,
Thinking you would pay such cost for a little dove.
Deceived into it,
I gave my heart,
At the end it split,
Tearing everything apart.
You played with me,
Such a wonderful play,
I thought I would be loved and free,
You threw me away.
Broken I am anew,
Feeling only grief,
You can never sew,
A doll with no belief.

I feel so nauseated
I hate the smell
that consumes me,
but I yearn to breathe
I feel trapped and sick
when thinking about them
My desire for happiness is so strong,
my weakness is used against me
I feel poisoned,
heart against mind
I'll die of a broken heart

You'll be okay,
Take my hand and follow me into the water
Swim with me into the depths
Feel your body become the waves
Pretend to be the light that
Shimmers from above
Everything will be alright
Until you forget how to breathe
Suffocate and drown

A shadow of a man passed by
I did not saw his face
but a knife was trans pierce
through my heart

a dead woman in my dream screamed
I  woke up with a gleam of light
peeking through the window
I looked outside and saw a widow

staring at me so strange
her face was so familiar
the woman in my dreams
could it be? Is my dream real,
is the widow her?

Is my head just messing with me?
I looked back at my window
the widow was gone and was replaced
with a friend who I trusted
the most with my life

Could it be? Is my friend the KILLER?
It couldn't be? funny thou i'm like in a thriller
a movie where the girl gets killed by a friend
who was really the killer in the end
This really leaves me so many Questions,
And still no answers in mind
Raven Nov 2018
Rose's are red
Violets are blue
Yet we all know
That's not true
Though we still
Believe every
I love you
She was beautiful
Before she knew
She was deceived.
If a lover is what you need
Then a stranger I'll be
Love has made my heart bleed
One too many times to be set free
Now it is decreed
My heart stays with me

Promises deceive us
We confuse love with lust
Comfort for trust
While true love gets lost
We think it's what we want most
Then when it breaks we pay the cost

We are all strangers to love
We don't know her anymore
Her patience, endurance and forgiveness
We confuse with weakness
We want to force her into our relationships
While she can't be so tightly gripped

But we don't know that
Because we don't take the time
To get to know her
Instead we make up fantasies
Of what we want her to be
Of what we think Love should be

So if a lover is what you need
Then a stranger I'll be
Because you are a stranger to love
And falling for the wrong thing
Has left me too damaged
To risk it again

When someone tells you that you're their best friend
You have to ask yourself if they are yours

You believe in what people say
In the lies they feed you
In the stories they exaggerate
You assume my people are bad people
And will do me wrong
But the only person that might be doing me wrong all this while
Could have been you
All along
I trust you
I look up to you
But your constant demands
Your perfect executions
Are completely ridiculous
I won't give in
I will be me
Whether you like it or not
Le Lotus Oct 2017
Reaching out to you
Was my biggest mistake.
But again,
Who wont be deceived by such face,
Innocent pair of eyes that shows sadness,
Who knows it was a look of lust?
Am I a fool ?
Or were you originally good at lying?
Well my bad maybe,
Shouldn't have reach out to you
In the first place.
