Unnoticed
Sia Sep 2017
In a sea of people
I am but a tiny ripple
Crippled by my desire to be different
I cannot follow the rest of the current

The sky remains the same
And the sun burns not my name
But of others who have solved life's conundrum
Which is not to live in a humdrum

In order to be complete
I must be unique
But to be such
I must give myself a little nudge
And live my life in the moment
Take adventures for my own enjoyment
Waste no time in a bore
Make life not a chore
Uniqueness is how I decide my life to be

I must be my own ocean
The ripples my life's explosion
Of good and bad
And everything in between

Different
Sia Aug 2017
Many ask
If being any different
Helps

But the truth is
Simple
I just want
To be noticed

One Day
Sia Aug 2017
One day
I fear
Our love will fall into ruins
Without a single hesitation
Without a single reason
To stay

One day
I fear
Seas will become still
Skies will burn red
And we won't even wonder why
As the fire in hearts can die
So does everything else

One day
I fear
The ache in my heart
Will become constant
Without even noticing the pain
Without realizing it has become numb
And I will have become used to it

One day
Is a day
I so very often fear
Because one day
Is uncertain
It could be near
Could be far
Could be today

One day
I fear
Is the end
Of the era we believed
Could create forever

I hope
My Love
One day
Does not exist
Just a myth
People tell because they cannot resist

Scent
Sia Jul 2017
Darling, you haunt me
In my waking moments
And in my sleep
Your scent it lingers
Like ghostly hands pulling me in
Intoxicating
And addicting
It sneaks through
In the gaps of your absence
In the shirt you wore the night before
When you slept so closely next to me
In the sheets of my bedding
And in the comfort of my own skin
Where you gently touched me

You let your skin burn mine
And left behind your scent
For me to find
For me to drown in
For me to think of only you
In all the places you knew I would be
Oh, you devil in disguise
But I suppose I mustn't complain
After all, I am the addict
And an addict does not decline a high
But dwells in the clouds of their sky
You are that sky
And you smell like heaven

Rainbow in Me
Sia Jul 2017
Mother
Father
Do you love me
Despite my love for she?

Brother
Sister
Are you ashamed
You're sister has been disclaimed?

When I took the flag
For being a ***
They blamed me for red
For when I left my families heart to shread
Screamed orange
For when I went for that slow plunge
Questioned yellow
For their woe
Cried green
For they believed I was merely a teen
Who could never tell purple with blue
Yes, they told me I had no clue

I insisted on love
On my wonderful ladylove
It was she
My cup of tea
It was love I let win
Not sin

The Lie of Our Love
Sia Jul 2017
Weaving gently
On a rainy evening
The realization strikes
Seated next to one another
We smile
White and black slowly entwined
And somehow, definitely
The words that escape our cherry colored lips
Become what we have woven

You say this
And turned around I say that
Parted hearts
We deny
The reality of the thing we call us
Happy outside
Questioning the inside
Are we sure of the love we thought we had?

Promises of truth
And endless profession of undying love
Are we truly happy
Or are we indulging the lie
A lie of our love
To create a facade
That happily ever after might exist

Jealousy
Sia Jul 2017
She held your hand
Before I
He kiss your lips
And I the last
They took cherry loved heart
Over and over
And broke it apart

But my love
I do not mind
The times have come and gone after all

But blame me not
When I turn red
Mad with jealousy
When I wish constantly
I had been first
Hoping where they failed
In the beginning or the end
I would do better
To keep you where you truly deserve
Happy
And always loved

— The End —
