Emotions
Giavana Jan 2022
Emotions are hard to put on paper
They come and go like birds past a skyscraper
They can instantly build you up or rip you down
As fast as a tornado can rip through your town
Why don’t we get enough time to feel?
It seems the time we get isn’t enough to heal
it seems the sad lasts longer and the happy runs from me
It seems the sad is my forever company
I didn’t sign up for that deal
I didn’t sign up to be sad and not heal
or for the happy to not stay to show the world the rush that I feel
I want the happy to rush through my veins and fill my blood
I want the sad to get lost in the trees and deep in the mud
I want the happy to last longer for once
Yet still the sad stays for months
Are emotions this ******* everyone???

i do not cry
Giavana Feb 2019
i do not cry for a reason
i just hold tight and forever squeeze in
it is how I will continue to always be
because if you do not the tears fall free
free from your eyes and down each cheek
they leave marks on your skin showing you're weak

Mental Minds
Giavana Feb 2019
mental health has become a statistic
i dont understand this logistic
our minds go crazy in our heads everyday
yet we are supposed to act okay
the new saying is "speak up"
but how about the world put their heads up
heads up from their professions
heads up from their fast lives
heads up and start saying confessions
stop throwing mental health in your archives
from now on everyone survives
mental health is more than we can handle alone
it should not be a reason to disown
nor a reason to pick a gravestone
it is time we take control of this mental hormone
so lets make mental health well-known

don't do it
Giavana Jul 2018
please oh please don't do it
don't use a ledge, or drugs, or a cable
you are strong, please do not quit
i don't understand how you are able
able to give yourself away
able to hurt everyone every day
not just today, but each day after
the pain never stops, you lose all laughter
such a strong message that can never be heard
if you feel this way then just use each word
tell how you feel, always confide
please oh please don't do it
dont commit suicide...

Darkness Passes
Giavana Jul 2018
dark paths are worth a follow
heavy loads are always hollow
lift slowly and free the light
follow these directions, hold on tight
feel my strength through my soul
never ever lose control
move the flashlight towards my way
open your eyes I'm here to stay
the light is brighter than you know
so never forget which path to go
darkness passes, so does light
but the sun is never gone so just sit tight
the dark is a phase the light is a maze
just go slow and you'll succeed
follow me for I am the lead

Bam, now you are freed

free my body
Giavana Jul 2018
free my body
free my soul
free my mind
and free my role
let me out of here
give me control
just please free my body
and please free my soul

Monster
Giavana May 2018
There is a monster under my bed
The monster has crawled into my head
The demon bangs on my skull
Hitting so hard like an angry bull
I fear the path that I will soon take
Unless my angels soon awake
Awake from the break they’ve taken so long
Oh hurry please this monster is strong
I will run, and for I will cry
Please look under my bed before I die
For there is a monster under my bed
The monster that crawled into my head
But for he or for I, who is truly dead?

Johnny, oh Johnny
Giavana Apr 2018
a lifeless soul lying there
water filled eyes trying not to stare
the empty body fills the room with despair
because this is not the man we love and share
who's body is in front of my eyes?
should I go and say my final goodbyes?
I do not want to remember him like this
for he was more than just a farewell kiss
who's body lies so dead and weak
yet people compliment his physique
I cry I cry I cry I cry
I will not say my final goodbye
close that casket for I will not stare
I don't know who's body is lying there
I softly shoot my glance that way
but it is not right to not let his body decay
he is dead
dead as dead can be
I refuse to remember what I see
he was a man full of love and laughter
yet this dead body changes how I remember him after
close that casket for I will not stare
I don't know who's body is lying there
I do not wish to remember your body dead
I will remember the days before and not ahead
I know you were more than just a body in the ground
I love you always, please sleep safe and sound
use that satin pillow for your head
now close that casket, for he is dead.

Give Me
Giavana Apr 2018
give me clarity for everyday
give me serenity to make the pain go away
give me answers to the questions I beg for
give me solutions to end this emotional war
give me hope before time runs out
give me laughter, all I do is shout
give me a smile to brighten my day
give me serenity to make the pain go away
give me clarity for everyday

Life is Beautiful
Giavana Apr 2018
Life is Beautiful
yet sometimes clouds will fill your sky
Life is Short
yet its the longest thing you will ever do
Life is Full
yet it will always fill with emptiness
Life is Clear
yet a fog will always pass you by
Life is Amazing
yet it will have days that are rough
Life is Planned
yet it will always leave you feeling lost
Life is Great
yet it will forever have ups and downs
Life is Beautiful
we owe it to ourselves to always remember that
no matter what
Life is Beautiful

Manipulations
Giavana Apr 2018
you are so full of love and emotion
such a strong devotion
you tell me how you feel
it doesn’t seem real
your love seems so strong
where does it go wrong
you lie and you cheat
I take a backseat
this is an ongoing streak
you have made me so weak
manipulations to expectations
why do I make accommodations
I need to learn to understand
I need to handle this firsthand
I was so full of love and emotion
I had such a strong devotion
but now is my exit, my final motion

So Long, So Wrong
Giavana Apr 2018
we were so happy for so long
we thought we thought
but we were wrong
our lives became one very sad song
there was no hope or feels inside
we sat, we shook, we screamed, we cried
I just can’t believe that he lied
lied to the only person there to confide
oh we were so happy for so long
but now I look stupid cause I was wrong
I just hope I can be strong...

Ouch.
Giavana Apr 2018
Ouch. my heart bleeds
the blood drips down my shirt
help this pain spreads like weeds
for I am so hurt

the blood it drips so fast from my heart
I wish I could have a brand new start
this deep heart rupture, I need a cast
please help, how long will this feeling last

the pain so hard and strong
it eats at my soul all day long
I cannot move a muscle or tendon
frozen in time, yet I still defend him

Ouch. my heart bleeds
the blood drips down my shirt
help this pain spreads like weeds
for I am so hurt

Erase a Face of The Past
Giavana Apr 2018
Can you erase a face of the past
can you leave that look in the dark
will you ever put that person last
or will you always feel that special spark
someone so close and special one time
has turned into a simple poem or rhyme
was that really all that they meant to you
or can the rules of love be bent for new
are there special exemptions
or certain redemptions
i was never taught how to feel love
or how to let it go like a soaring dove
should you release what you cannot hold
before it turns so cold and old
or should you keep what you maybe can fix
try and build it up like a stack of bricks
so many different twisted situations
will your choice meet the strict expectations
or can you erase a face of the past
can you leave that look in the dark
will you ever put that person last
or will you always feel that special spark?

Does Life Stop... Ever?
Giavana Apr 2018
does life stop
does it ever slow down
is it always this hard
to keep your feet on the ground
do you ever just pause
to think for a while
or will that put you into a downward spiral
these answers are questions
no solutions to be found
with no expert intuitions
just me stuck on this ground
the ground that keeps moving
and will never slow down
so move your feet quicker
stop hanging around
find the answers to your questions
the solutions to your lessons
before time flies around
and you too become part of this ground
yet does life ever stop
does it even slow down?

— The End —
