Two Left Feet Dance
Nyx Mar 2020
Did i ***** it up before it even blossomed
Into something more i wished we were
I know we're going through circles
Every time we tried to dance together
But i thought this time would be different.
We found more common ground
Found more whatnots and ideals to talk about
It was getting better
And i wanted it to be something more
Truly
But i do end up ******* it every time
I don't know what to do
And i know you've been fed up with
Empty promises and half-assed vows
Of faith and staying
So maybe fate has a funny way of toying with me at the moment
To have you close but not even mine
To have you far and farther still
But i couldn't just stay away
I don't want to
Because this dance is what i do want to do
Eventhough i know i have two left feet
So, here goes what has always been constant
My loyalty
To be yours in any sense that might be
I'm stretching my hands and my heart to you
Would you dance with me?

to be loved
Nyx Aug 2018
Maybe the reason
you fell out of love
Was because
it was too much
I was too much
Writing you poetries
Vulnerabilities
When you just wanted
to be loved
I got carried away

make up
Nyx Jul 2018
make up your mind, baby
tell me if you wanna be mine
make up your heart, baby
does it beat for anyone?
would you care to let me in?
because i've been standing
for far too long
This hit a little closer to home

Half a Heart
Nyx Jul 2018
Half a heart without you
Half a life without
You and your quirkiness
You and your sunshine
You and your skin
Half a heart without you
And never complete again

forget
Nyx Jun 2018
you made me believe in wishing stars
in fate and in songs
you made me believe in red strings and free-falling
believed in the innocence of being tamed
i'll hold on to them
the memories
let me hold on to them
but not to you
let me forget you

lights on
Nyx Jun 2018
can you please leave the lights on?
when you leave me broken and alone
in the room, please leave them on
it's not that i'm afraid of desolation
just of the dark without the stars
you've surely taken away the light.
the light. the life.
my light. my life.

quixotic
Nyx Jun 2018
for some reason, my thoughts still drift to you
not fighting the current
they flow to your presence
full of nerves unceasing
aren't you gonna let me in?
keep me warm
calm me down
i've been cold for a long time
my thoughts are in chaos
i'm chaos

hollow to full
Nyx Jun 2018
Hollow
The difference of being empty and void is the middle part
The void tells you there's nothing there
Empty means something is lacking
Something is not here
Hollowed-out means emptied out
Like a smile fading
Tears falling
Heart breaking

Full
Abundance is what it is
The many the merrier, the more the richer
Fill me with peals of laughters
Of handkerchiefs to wipe the oceans in my eyes
Make my heart full of you

Make me hollow. Then fill me in again.

— The End —
