#quick poems on Hello Poetry

Poetic T Sep 2017

"Your eyes sparkle like stars
                           in the night sky,
when I stare into them,
              I feel like I am soaring high."*

I said this too her, like every word
was a shooting star.
                       Burning up
in the atmosphere of her heart.

Love shined momently bright..
                      skimming on emotions
but, what happens when stars fade.

Alone in the dark, wishing on
glimpses of our moment.
                 The heavens now empty of us.

Maybe

Maybe you will come back and say hi once again
Maybe we will start over and never let go.

Laurel Leaves Aug 2017

Pt. Sd.

To be
Alone

Lonesome solace where the
Complacent
Sit in a circle
Criss crossed I saw him
Lie in the middle
Smirk wrapped against teeth

As they pushed deeper and deeper inside me

Alone
Void of lonesome
I didnt drive in fear while the knife wielded into my spine
I led the cowardly
Edge of the lake standing

His needle just rested against his forearm
Poison barely made it into
The vein next to
Thick lined tattoo
Said he barely felt pain

The past tense
Was edible
It melted into euphoria
Forgetfulness was a privilege
I could be consumed by moments
Hours
Where his ringing noises didnt
Completely devour
Where he didnt catapult me into
Leaping fenses
Shoving cliffsides

I'm capsized
Defined by an adlib
By bullet holes and
Splinters

Wish I could have wrapped my fists tighter
Made the pigment of my beating heart
Lighter.

waves

outa sight outa mind I haven't missed you in a while cause
**** things have changed
no more hoping or wishing or thinking bout you
you haven't called me in over a year
you been with her for over a year
but then you come back even just for a second and I
wanna tell you everything you've been missing
how I've seen the world and found my passions
how I've laughed and cried and grown without you
the books I've read
the people I've met
wanna share them with you
wanna share you with them
but you'll be gone before I can
utter the words
before I can ask how you are
before you can ask how I am
you dance in and out
using poetry as your vessel to remind me of what we share
our mutual existence in this crazy world
our coexistence
back for a second you'll be gone for a minute
I miss you already
I've forgotten you again

Stars

Don't go so fast
You forget to look at the stars
Again

IDK I just fall in love with the nooks and crannies of the world and wish more people would notice them

Pillow

Pillow by the tears soaked,
from under the head by the thoughts wrecked,
hides all of my secrets.

It's 1:20 am and I can't sleep. I'm sad and diappointed, so this quick came on my mind like a thunder as my eyes were closed.

Same Page

I came to my senses

It took some time for me to understand even myself

I let you go and I thank you

For letting me go too

I'm better but there's sacrifices

You are backing out of yourself again

I don't know what to do

We shall continue our paths

Happiness is close by

Triodyne

Easy form, just one, two, three done
Doesn't have to rhyme, can be free
Three lines simple, I've mess up-ghee

This is a new form of poetry to me..I guess one could continue in an interlocking rhymning poem by either rhyme the first line of the second and proceeding stanzas with the first line or either the last line then keep with the rhymning scheme of A, b, b..

Twist

Calamari float,
changing tack,dive inwards quick,
life's contrary turns!

Offering

Come lay your hands upon me,
dig your fingers to rip my skin apart.
Trace your lips softly and gently,
before biting down on my beating heart.
