#hopeless poems on Hello Poetry

Matthew Vargas Sep 2017

"Are you okay?"
Some ask while I fall into shambles
Am I okay?
I ask myself as I tear my flesh apart
"You look so tired..."
Some say as they look at me, concerned.
"Didn't get much sleep."
I try to smile and mumble.
It's tiring.
So utterly exhausting as my pillow bears more of my tears,
Staining it's soft fabric.
Drops of salt and water, how I cling
To this pillow and wonder
Why I'm always alone when I cry.
But who knows
and who cares.

Hopeless Romanticism

Being a hopeless romantic...

It's laying in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Listening to any love song with piano.

It's thinking about that one person.
From dawn until dusk, and dusk until dawn.
Their name, their smile, repeating in your mind.

It's realizing you may never be the one locked in their arms.
The only place you truly desire to be.
No matter how hard you try.

It's accepting sadness as a part of you.
At least it's better than feeling nothing at all.

It's a beautifully, broken, equation.
One that has no universal solution.

Being a hopeless romantic...

It's a blessing and a curse.

The end

The beginning of the end,
A brief moment of happiness
On a freshly stretched canvas
Then Gone with the blowing wind,
without track or trace,
just like the rest
Like fine sand, through my fingers
Away the one slips
Our bridge burns down to ashes
Then the heart crashes
A journal spreads open
Begs to get touched
In sorrowed cries and swollen eyes
The ink rhymes
Then the soul dies
The end

4:45 am

Loneliness is Expensive

Loneliness is expensive
Maybe if I get this, I’ll be better
No, let me buy dinner
Here take my eyes, my smile, my dignity I don’t need it

Nights are the worst
Regrettably, I am still getting used this
The exquisite warmth replaced by a cold wall at my side

I feel like I am jumping from freight cars
Traveling to I don’t know where
But I tell myself
Wherever will be better
Convincing.

You were beautiful
I sat in your sky and polished your glisten and shine
I became addicted to your sweetness
But snakes do not give honey

I am just a bruise now
Wake up
Ow that hurts
Climb out of bed
**** that hurts
Walk out of the door
**** it hurts

There is a moth outside of my window
He flutters on the glass
Drawn to the soft light through a lampshade
He doesn’t know
The light is beautiful
But the heat of the bulb will hurt him if he gets close enough to touch it
Its okay
I am like you too

A Winter's Flight

The brisk winds numb my paled skin.

As I walk through the desolation,
my feet fall into the sunken path.

Shadows of trees encapsulate me.

In this world devoid of color,
I look
up
to
the sky
in hopes of pastels.

Yet
I see not a cloud in the sky
nor a bird passing by.

For in this eternity,
all but I
have taken flight.

I want you to know I have a deep affection for you.
This is my fate I'm Hopeless yours.
My love for you has never Flattered.
Lo ring you gives me such a close feeling to heaven.

Hopeless

I'm hopeless.
Not hopelessly romantic just hopelessly attracted to the smile you shine upon a room. I know I'm no good for you but I can't stop lusting over you.
This feeling I'm trying to desperately shake off won't let my mind shut you off. Tell me, what is a girl like me suppose to do to brush you off? I'm already in lust, what else can go wrong. I'm hopeless. Hopelessly believing in a fairytale for us. I write this down and I can't help but smirk. I smirk because you'll never know that it's you Im hopeless for.

Formless shapes

I still feel cold,
As cold as we felt after skinny dipping that summer night,
But your arms are not wrapped around my naked body.
I can't feel your breath on my neck.
I can't feel the way your skin reacts with crazy goosebumps every time water drops from my wet hair slide down your chest.
I am tired of trying to remember the sound of your voice,
Exhausted of closing my eyes so tight till being able to see whole galaxies,
But still not capable of a sharp picture of your face.
I see shades of green but none of them matches your eyes.
I force my skin to remember the warmth of your touch,
but I still feel cold.

Where to go? What to do?

No amount of depression can change the past, and no amout of anxiety can help the **future.

I hate being in the middle of everything.
Life or death?
To try or not?
I never know and end up just doing the same thing hoplessley- nothing. :/
