Watercolors
Amirah Moody May 2023
A soft pallet to put you at ease
Peaceful auras radiate with a glance
So light, almost gone
A rain shower washed away the brightness
With only faded splotches left
To gain relaxing soft shades
Someone has to wash away the bold pallet

Limited Freedom
Amirah Moody Jun 2020
The houses we once called home
Now solitary confindment
The faces we used to see in the sun
Can only be seen on a screen
Places where we had fun
Are now locked up and barren
All because we never know who could be contagious
A new pleague has taken over
Threatening and taking lives day by day
A little light has made its way
But its not enough
Trapped in our homes and countries
With limitations on our travels

Relapse
Amirah Moody Mar 2020
My *****-ups are on repeat
I'm a ****** for wrongdoings
No matter how many counselors
No  matter how much treatment
I'm addicted to a substance
For brief time, I'm clean
Then I'm back on
I need the high
I can't kick the habit
I'm doomed to relapse
Because I want to overdose

Dreams
Amirah Moody Jun 2019
I snuggle into my bed
I close my eyes
And I go on a journey
To where?
I don't know yet
Maybe a beautiful beach
Or a furturistic space station
Who will I be?
I don't know that either
I could be a rockstar on stage
Or a figure skater on ice
Who knows what I'll be
For dreams are infinate choices
And an adventure to have

Illusions
Amirah Moody Jun 2019
I drift away from the real world
And enter a new one
A world where I can be someone else
Where anyone I've seen
On TV or in video games
I can join on their adventures
I can act a certain way
I can be sassy
I can be brave
I can be smart
I can be whatever
But I have to leave that world
The real world is cruel
The illusions in my head
Are things people want to make me get rid of
But I don't want to leave
Sometimes I wish reality was an illusion

The mysterious light
Amirah Moody May 2019
The night is not being comfroting
Fog swirls and dances around the lake
The moon and stars are the only light
They all watch quietly
A pale glow emerges
Hidden in the fog
I stand frozen
The mysterious light stands there
It's glow like an eye staring
It doesn't move
It doesn't speak
What is it?
Is it a boat's lamp
Is it a stary flashlight?
Is it a wandering spirit?
Slowly the light fades away
Disappering into the fog
And it's idenity unknown

Lily is a robot
Amirah Moody May 2019
Lily is a robot
An emotionless, cold, metal robot
That's why I don't like her
Lily has a nice smile
I see her smiling with other people
Everytime she smiles, the sunlight shines into the room
But she is a robot
That's why I don't like her
One time, I was really sad
Lily sat beside me and comfort me
I didn't want her near me]
She is a robot, so she won't be warm and nice
That's why I don't like her
Lily has friends
She doesn't talk to a lot of people
She probably talks about robot stuff
What if her friends pretend to like her
That's why I don't like her
It doesn't matter if she looks human
It doesn't matter if she acts human
It dosen't matter if she is one of us
It's weird
She's weird
The world is better off without robots
And I will tell everyone

Wings
Amirah Moody Apr 2019
Sometimes when I sleep
I dream I have wings
Big, beautiful wings
So I can flay away
Away from everything
From the stress
From the responsibilities
From all the bad things in lofe
I want to fly free
To see the world from above
Someday I'll open my wings
And fly

I can't change
Amirah Moody Apr 2019
What did I do?
They all look at me
With disgusted faces
Shouting insults
No matter where I go
Everyone has something against me
All this hate
I didn't ask for
I can't change for you
I can't change my skin
I can't change my race
I can't change my sexuality
This is who I am
Yet you hate me for it

Rivers
Amirah Moody Apr 2019
Calm blue streams
Traveling down stones
Making little waterfalls
Floating into lakes
Little water current
Traveling the world

Blind
Amirah Moody Apr 2019
I see nothing
I don't know what I look like
I don't what anyone looks like
Or anything
Hearing colors I don't see
Voices that have no face
Sounds with no maker
Why do I have eyes
If I can't see with them

Sonata
Amirah Moody Apr 2019
A song is message
A message written in melody
With a powerful voice
I sing my story
Songs of different emotions
From happiness to sadness
From fear to anger
I sing the ballads of my life

Leach
Amirah Moody Dec 2018
Slimy, disgusting creature
Latching on to someone
******* the energy out
It *****
It *****
And it *****
Until the person peels it off
And throws it back in the water
No one wants a leach on them

Happy Thoughts
Amirah Moody Dec 2018
Think of happy thoughts
Any thoughts to make you smile
When tears fill your eyes
Think happy thoughts
When the shouts start
Think happy thoughts
When the pain stings
Think happy thoughts
Think of what makes you smile
So it all becomes numb

Rainy Weekends
Amirah Moody Dec 2018
A brief break from school
Expecting the sun's face
But instead hides behind the clouds
The clouds releasing pent-up feelings
From the days before
Their tears wetting the pavement and vegetation
The weekend is a great day to relax

Blue
Amirah Moody Nov 2018
The color of calmness
A cool tranquil color
Worn by the ocean
Worn by the sky, birds, and sapphires
Its peaceful presents flows through you
Extinguishing any fear or anger
The color of saddness
The nickname of gloom
What flows from your eyes
When your heart can't hold anymore
A color to match a feeling

Skeleton
Amirah Moody Nov 2018
The skeleton had skin once
Pale, smooth skin
It use to love its skin
Then it started to hate it
There was too much of it
They said too much skin wasn't pretty
So the skeleton decided to get rid of it
It made the skin stop growing
The skin started to disappear
Until there was just bone
And the skeleton thought it was finally beautiful

Writer
Amirah Moody Oct 2018
Ideas bubble inside
The cauldron that is my brain
Beautiful words to express simple things
Tales to tell about magic and fantasy
Simple stories of fandoms I love
The ideas flow from my head to my pen
From pen on to paper
To write
Is to share your stories with the world

Camera
Amirah Moody Oct 2018
Through the little window
I spot a perfect image
A beautiful image that must be captured
With the press of a button
With a flash of light
A frame slides out
Slowly but surely
The image appears
A perfect picture captured

Prism
Amirah Moody Oct 2018
Long rectangular glass
Seems boring to most
They don't see its potential
A beam of sunlight shines on it
The prism absorbs the light
And transforms the light into a rainbow
The color of its soul
No longer is it hidden
Because of the sun's light

Midnight Rainbow
Amirah Moody Oct 2018
Nothing but a dark sky
No light in sight
All black
A light appears
A band of different colors
Streaking across the dark
Dancing in the air
Like snowflakes in the wind
Beautiful light in darkness
A beautiful midnight rainbow

Jealousy
Amirah Moody Oct 2018
Standing on the sidelines
Seeing them with another
Tiny flames of fury rise in your heart
Anxious thoughts swarm your head
Why are they with them?
Will they leave me?
It is a very powerful flame
Your thoughts are the gasoline

— The End —
