Lord lift my spirits
For I have fallen
Into a shadow

A dark abyss
That swallows all
Who dare intrude
Quetta Rose Feb 2019
Her eyes were dark,
Her voice was captivating,
Demon in disguise.

He tried to be dark,
But there was a little spark,
A fallen angel.

A lonely road,
Is where they had met by fate,
With nothing to lose.

They had hell to raise.

I feel so much passion,
It is stirring inside,
I opened my heart,
And closed off my mind,

I followed the feeling,
That showed me the way,
Through the dark nights,
To see the new days,

I needed to find You,
I searched far and wide,
I'm grateful to have You,
As a part of my life,

You make me so happy,
You make me so sad,
You make me so angry,
You make me so mad,

I wish I never found you,
I wish I never had,
I have fallen in love,
I have fallen so bad.
Rambling on.

To realize I never knew you
Makes me wonder who exactly I thought I knew
A “lost cause” was an excuse…
Your true self was hidden from everybody, and from me too
And the one chance I had to get some information, like, “How are you?”

I ask your coworker if you still work there
And she says no
Makes me wonder where you are
Makes me wonder how is your family who I never met,
And how I could let you in so easily
You were like another lost soul I was ready to mend
I think it is time to let go
I gotta stop thinking “what if”
And take the moment as it was,
A sad, tragic, three months of lust
Like a car crash in the dark, we didn’t know when the ride would stop
And then we lost touch of talk, and speech in our touch
We were lost, like hikers at dusk
Now that we are 2 years older, would it be similar?
Or would you still break my heart with every word and girl you compared me with?
Social media showed me your beautiful girlfriend. You took her to LA. You only took me places in my dreams. Like you were afraid to be seen with me.

i heard u like bretty girls
so i didn't dress up like one
but you still came back
and acted like i was the only one
only one there, everywhere

so i dressed up like me
and hoped you will feel
that I'm not enough
enough for you
enough to walk next to you

and you still sitting right here
your brown eyes shining back to me
and i still try slip away
hoping you will let me go
let me walk right back home

cause i still have feeling for you
and i can't slip away
away from them

Tears
stain her
eyes. Clearly, she's
had better times. But
what you can't see
is her heart.

That has

If you loved her, like darkness,
you have always loved her since,
and if you loved her like light,
then she had steered you from your sins.
I think this poem is for those who've loved, maybe.

I want to go home.
I never liked this rotten earth
Its hungry, grabbing hands
Scraped psalms into my palms
Tore feathers from my tattered back
And little by little
devoured them all.

My halo broke.
shine long swallowed by rust-
decay, dust-black with greed
Comes creeping in a dream
To hide what little shine is left
And little by little
Black out my heart.

A quiet hymn.
I wrote all on my own
I screamed it to the ceiling
And carved it to my bones-
Deep inside my skin, inside my soul
But little by little
I’m forgetting the words.
Maybe if I spam all my poetry it’ll be like I never left :’)

Endangered like a beating heart
Emotions stir my vulnerable heart
Why, oh, why, my heart,
have you fallen in love from the start?
