Rotting
Rosa Nov 2022
I keep rotten food underneath my bed
Maybe it’s because my head tells me i’ll be better off dead
That underneath the ground there i’ll lay
Rotting like all of those flowers
Soon to decay

drink enough water
Rosa May 2019
see beyond the words and faces
feel beyond the smooth skin
read beyond the print
breathe in more than the oxygen
run in messy houses
live beneath the bridges
seek more than what they can offer
but most importantly
always drink enough water

living and lifeless
Rosa May 2019
living in the daydreams in my head
i’ll take my pain pills and go to bed
lifeless, cold and dead
I’ve awaited someone to save this disgrace
but now it’s too late

lullaby
Rosa Feb 2019
down to the river, i’m leaving you behind
down to the river, i’ll cry and cry and cry
down to the river, please dry my eyes
down to the river, i’ll sing this lullaby
A short lullaby I created to serenade myself into complete madness

Dreams are better than my reality

Wounds
Rosa Jul 2018
My body thrills with fright
Sounds of his wounds linger at first sight
Leaving with scars on her wrists
He hit me and it felt like a kiss

The Liquid Eyes
Rosa Jul 2018
Drifting to the liquid eyes, the echoes inside her, the wounds of the sky, distance widens across the shore,
She bawls in a silhouette, touching the wallowing hunger inside
Deep beneath the depths of light, glistens the empty tide

The Weeping Skies
Rosa Jul 2018
How do I escape the weeping skies
Where no one calls out my name,
I start to cry
Where the only touch I’ve ever felt is my own hand
The vision of my dreams reaches a lie,
I cant stand, I can’t cry, I can’t feel, I can’t say goodbye
Where do I escape the weeping skies, where the end of my sorrow dies

— The End —
