apollo
simone Jan 2020
“Were you too, kissed by Apollo?”
I shook my head.
Apollo hadn’t graced me with his touch.
“It burns like the sun!”
Oh how i yearned to feel it.
The smoldering of his lips upon mine.
Oh Apollo, why have you forgotten me?
My dearest take me away!
So that i may be yours for ever...
Let me rise with you, as you rise with the sun
Allow me to worship you with all I am.

headache
simone Jan 2020
silly girl. what were you thinking? going out into the storm like that? i could've lost you. i don't wan t to lose you. don't get lost, i need you. stupid girl you never use your head. you're always lost in there. how could you forget where the horizon was? it's always here. please don't walk out into the ocean like that. it isn't your friend. it won't protect you. i will. i always do.
wrote this based on a lyric from a grouper song.
"My mother once told me
she walked into the ocean
didn't want to die
just couldn't tell where the horizon was"

you can feel the love in his fingertips when he touches you
when his lips press against your skin
he never has to say it
he doesn't need to
not finishing poems is my brand at this point

Sometimes i'm taken aback by how much i love you
By how deeply i feel for you
You make my chest ache and my lungs burn
I wish i could make you understand my feelings for you
But truth be told
Even i don’t
this isnt finished actually. its just a little something i decided to put out since i haven't really written in a while. truth be told i've been feeling a little bleh about my writing. i feel like it used to be so much better. now i just feel like i can't make my words flow right.

sorry
simone Mar 2020
i’m sorry that I hurt you so bad
i’m sorry for letting you down
i think about you every day
i hope you feel better now
that all the pain I caused you has started to fade
and you don’t cry yourself to sleep anymore
oh you deserved so much better
maybe in another life, we are still together
and we are happy
maybe we have kids
a few cats
thinking about that is one of the few things that makes me smile
the only thing
i’m sorry
i hope one day you can forgive me

howl
simone Jan 2020
oh how i envy you sophie
you stole his heart
now he belongs to you and only you
oh howl my only love
how i wish to live in your castle
how i yearn to be your queen
you have caught my heart like how you caught that star so many moons ago
and to carry a heart, is such a heavy burden

melt
simone Jul 2020
i feel like i could melt into you
is that weird?
its how i feel
you’re so warm
so soft
you make me feel so soft
you’re always holding me in some way
you make me feel safe
maybe this is finished

— The End —
