Why I hate Christmas💔
Coco Nov 2021
I tried to write a poem about Xmas.     But failed.  I simply have no memory of having a happy one.   Maybe it's the constant feeling of loneliness or maybe the fact that it brings out the difference between being happy and sad. Yet the fact remains l am yet to have joyful Christmas.
                       All I want for Christmas is to have a Happy one

My father said
Coco Aug 2021
I've got nothing to offer
No special ability
Ask me my talent
I say none
Talk of poetry
And it is shunned
"Sports, dance, music,and
Arts.
These are your limits".
Poetry is pointless.

Black or white
Coco Jun 2020
Is it sinful to be a man of colour
To have colour is beautiful
To be plain is unique
But,
I can't breathe
Just like Floyd
We're choking
              Black or white
we are human
Black is beauty

Dust to dust
Coco Jul 2020
Look Hakim
Dust is being spilt into dust
The dirt that laughed and cried
Once a river flowing with life
Dust is what remains
Tears mud the dust
As dust is swallowed by dust
Look Hakim
Dust becomes dust.

I🦇 Wish💔I💔New
Coco Dec 2021
I have fought it , struggled through it,and faced it unblinkingly.  
In the end I lost ,my strength was insufficient. At the cost of loosing my heart. I let her control it. For the simple purpose of being beside her. She was worth every crack , every tear every break
      Before I new it my paper cut
              Became a gush
                    I'm bleeding out
My crash became my fall
          My heart her toy and I played along

Have tea with me
Coco Jul 2020
Sit and have some tea with me
Enjoy the beauty
Of the scenery
The world has to offer
For what is beautiful isn't for life
And what is breathtaking will breath its last

My little secret
Coco Oct 2021
Let's be clear
It's not there
Happiness for me is beyond reach
Drops, drops and tear drops
Flood my eyes
One by one they fall
Yet a smile is curved on my face
It's out of place
Deep down
I feel drawn
To the darkness within my sadness
To be real
It's like a vessel
The smile on my face.
Covering the emptiness within

I couldn't forget you
Coco Jul 2020
I watched you
        Leave,
But I can't let go
Tears still flow
       From,
When you left
     And yet,
My love still grows
     Like rows
Of poison ivy.
Coco Sep 2020
Is it fair
For you to read
And appreciate nothing.
I pour my emotions into every word
And beautify them to your liking
Until each letter
becomes a message.
But you reject
And ignore my words,my message
Still I keep writing.

The girl on the street
Coco Aug 2020
She looks up to the man on the street
"Please sir can you help me"
It's dark and she's weak
"Please sir Don't leave me"
He looks  over his shoulder
And spits.  
Who else can help her
She's alone

I am different
Coco Jul 2020
A cup of water in the ocean
Is nothing compared to a drop
In the desert.
What is beauty
If it is sorrounded by
Beautiful scenery.
Being different
Is a gift
Many can't afford

Protest
Coco Jun 2020
You will see us,
In you screens,
In your streets
And even outside you(white) 🏠.

You will listen to what we say,
Understand what we say
And finally act.

Because we won't,
Leave you screens.
We will,
Stay in your streets.
And we won't,
Leave your doorstep
Until you act

The cycle of love
Coco May 2020
When a man and a woman meet
Attraction sets in
An endless pursuit begins
For the one who refuses to be forgotten

When they meet again
Obsession creeps in
Each one becomes a slave
Of the one they obsess over
There thoughts become entangled
With each other

When they share a night
Love is fodged
Hence the cycle of love
First there is attraction, obsession,love then death

She was blind
Coco Jul 2020
I was blindly in love
It's different from above
How can you love
Someone who is blind
A love that can't be seen but felt and yet, not accepted.
                                  It's difficult to love someone who can't see your efforts

Life
Coco May 2020
Raise your cup and sing a song
For life is not long
What is ahead
We can not foresee
So enjoy your wine and dine
To you heart's content
We have one life
So live it
To the fullest extent

Remember me
Coco Jul 2020
Reminiscing on my lucid past
A past I wish to never forget
her plump red lips
Eyes that twinkled like stars
My heart raced
When she came near me
OoH!but what's the use
I curse the day I met her
Why did she leave so soon
My lips so dry
My body so cold,and my heart so lost

Memories
Coco Jun 2020
Memories,
Never let go of them
And treasure them
Always
They may not be beautiful
Or, bearable
But they are yours
Never loose site of them
Is like Forgetting a lover

If you would read my mind
You would see the love
Deeply rooted and
Written in bold
For you
I wanted to write a love poem since today i was happy and filled with ecstasy

Music rings in my ears
Soft and pure the lyrics flow
The words form
And the tears flow
"Why did she leave, why"
It's easier to forget the love
Than the pain
The scar will always remain
Covered and unseen
So I will sing this music
Until I sleep.
So that I can be free to dream
#brokenheart

A poet motivated me
To become a poet
to express feelings from the heart
With words and
From her words,
a chinese ,
I could feel her emotions
Her pain and her happiness
I wanted to become a poet
Because I was like her
Coco Jul 2020
The scent of Deceit
I can feel it
In the air,clogging my lungs
Choking me,
And yet, I can't show it
I have to believe you.
Every word is true
Because they are from you
I have to accept them

Aloneonceagain
Coco May 2020
How dare she
Sleep with another man
Intimatly,hold another human
How dare she

She has broken my heart
And left me alone in a heartbeat
Without a second thought
She is gone

I pray death befalls her
But how could I wish that
I, opened my heart
I,let her in
And now my heart is frozen
And alone once again

The girl I love
Is as elusive as a dream
She destroys every perfect
Illusion I have of her
While exposing a glimpse of her
Beautiful, loveable side
Just a thought ,a beautiful thought,explaining love and it's highs and lows

UTITTLED
Coco Jul 2020
For the times I have known it
The times I have felt
and the time I have lost to it
The image of fear
I don't want to feel it
I don't want to be part of it
But it's me, I'm part of it
I am a failure.
I failed to conquer my fear
And now failure has engulfed me

— The End —
