and watch
the sunset

watch the
waves kiss
the shore
blissfully

and listen
to the
crash.

Listen to the
seagulls talking to
one another as
they race on
by.

Enjoy this moment.
Enjoy this moment, right here,
right now.
Alaska Feb 2016
Lately it seems
you're always
in my dreams
and that makes me
never want to sleep
because
I don'want to see you.
I don't want to see you,
even if it's only in my
dreams.
But is it really a
dream or rather
a nightmare?
Alaska Mar 2016
Take me away
from here, from this
place.
Take me far, far,
away.
Take me on an
adventure.
Take me somewhere
we can fall in
love.
Take me somewhere
we could be
happy.
Take me somewhere
we could make
memories.
Alaska Oct 2016
I **** up
anything important
to me.
Is it
because
I'm scared?
I don't
want to
lose you.
I'm sorry
for not
being what
you needed.
Alaska Apr 2016
You* visited my mind today,
I was sad for a moment but then,
happiness crept up on me like a
child's surprise party.

The memories I have of
you are warm,
I'm done thinking of
you as a burden.

You can't make me sad anymore,
you're gone and frankly,
I don't want
you**
back.

and asked me what movie
I was watching.

I was lucky.

That's the most he has
spoken to me in weeks.
Alaska Feb 2016
Time to
move on
its been
too long.
Four years
is enough.
My heart
can't take
the pain
anymore.
It's over.
Alaska Feb 2016
I'm extremely
happy to have
learned how to
keep my head
high and keep
looking forward
rather than
looking behind
me and seeing
your face
which is
far gone in
the past.
Alaska Feb 2016
At one point
in my life
you were
the only
one I truly
trusted but,
now you are
the last one
I would ever
trust or even
utter a single
word to.
Alaska Apr 2016
What I feel
will fade

at least I
hope.
Alaska Apr 2016
I'm dipping into my past pain
to distract myself from today's pain.

I may find it beautiful but,
you may find it unusual.

She was his flower
So gentle and pure
But only for an hour,
For he could not
Hold her too long.
Alaska Jun 2016
You built me up in the beginning, just to put me down in the end.

I was insecure,
you saw that,
you knew
that.

You complimented me,
building me up,
making my
confidence flourish,
you helped me
feel beautiful.

Then came the
lust and I
became insecure
once again.

I thought in
order to be
beautiful for you,
I had to please you.

I was insecure,
but to the point where
I would stop and
not go further.

I knew what you
liked already,
I didn't want to do
something else where
maybe you didn't
like what you saw
and
you weren't pleased.
Alaska Apr 2016
At this point,
I don't know
what I'm feeling

All these emotions
are filling my
body and I
don't know what
to do.

I've been broken
for so long.

Is this what
feels like
to be whole
again?

To feel every
emotion
possible?

The emptiness that
was there is filling
and I'm not sure
if I like it...
Alaska May 2016
Your voice is a drug
that I can't get enough of.

--

Your voice is a drug
and I'm addicted.
Alaska Apr 2016
The new trend
Seems to be
Falling in love
With your best friend.
Alaska Aug 2016
I'm such an embarrassment.
No one wants to be with me,
because clearly I'm not pretty
enough, thin enough, or good
enough for anyone.
Thanks for making me feel this way,
but don't worry, I'll get it over it, and
prove you wrong.
Alaska Jun 2016
I've loved only one
in my eighteen years
and stopped myself before
I could love another.

I grew up without
love, not knowing what
it felt like to
be loved or to
love someone else.

But now, I  know
what love is after
I've seen and experienced
it.

Except when I fell
in love, it was
only me who fell..

And I don't plan
on falling again unless
I know I will
be caught.

Have you ever
just looked at
people in a
bookstore?
Not judging
them, just
looking,
and seeing
all the different
people buying
different books.
You don't have
to look a certain
way to read or
purchase a book.
You don't have
to look a certain
way in order to read
a certain genre,
just look like
you.
Alaska Apr 2016
I've realized
I've always
been everyone's
second choice

once their
number one
leaves, they
start putting
me first.

actually, sometimes
I'm not
even a
second choice

I'm the
last resort.

but for once
I was the
first choice without
being a second
one at all.

Thank you.
Thank you
for making
me feel
important.
Alaska Feb 2016
Why had she
kept trying...?
Was the question
she was constantly
asked.
She always laughed
and shook her head.
The answer was
obvious she thought.
You don't just give
up on the one you
love that easily...
because you're
still holding
onto the hope
that one day
they will
love you
again.
Alaska Mar 2016
Follow me...
Let's get
lost but,
find ourselves
at the
same time.
Let's discover
each other,
who we
really are.
I wanna
know who
you really
are, not
who you
pretend to
be.
Alaska Mar 2016
"What do you wanna do?"*
I just want to sit with
you
in bath robes,
as we drink wine,
talk about life
and draw ugly
portraits of
each other.
Alaska Mar 2016
Maybe that's what
I should do.
Step back and
let distance take
its toll.

I don't have
time to have
my heart broken
again.

I'm falling in
love with you
and I don't
know how to
stop.
Alaska Mar 2016
I do the
things I do
because it's nice
to feel wanted
for once in
my life,
even if it
is just for
a short time.
Alaska Apr 2016
Maybe when I'm
Drunk and vulnerable
I'll confess it all.

Like how I love you
And the way you smile
When you tell me about
A good day you've had.

Or how I could never
Tell you I'm in love  
With you sober

Because I know you don't
Feel the same and I
Can't bare to take the pain.
Alaska Feb 2018
I am becoming confused on what happened between us.
You told me you were leaving and did not want to pursue a relationship, because of it.
I was not ready for a relationship at the time anyway, so maybe it was for the best.
But you're going to be out soon... and now you don't want me,
Because apparently, "I was not about it".....
Alaska Feb 2016
You knew I was
innocent.
You saw it as an
opportunity to
use me.
You thought I
was easy, so
it didn't matter
if you hurt me.
You knew I had
feelings for you,
so you used that
to your
advantage.
All I wanted
was to be with you,
but all you wanted
was my body...
Alaska Oct 2016
You do not need to be with
someone to be happy.
You may want to be with
someone, but you do
not need to be.
Love yourself first,
please....

I know I'm not the prettiest flower in the garden, but you don't have to constantly remind me.
Alaska Sep 2017
To never know how to describe how you feel is so terrifying.
Alaska Apr 2017
you're the gem I've been looking for in this rough called
life.
Alaska Nov 2017
Because the person who I actually
Thought would give me a chance
And show me that I did not have
Bad luck with my heart,
Proved me wrong and hurt me the
Most.
You showed me that I was not even
Worth the risk and proved me right
That I’m just not meant to be in
A romantic relationship with
Another soul.
Just solely physical... since that
Is all I am used to.
Alaska Mar 2016
You were the only one I wanted to call
The only one I wanted to talk to
But I couldn't.
I had to distance myself from you.
I can't always go to you.
I have to let you go,
So you can be happy.
Alaska Apr 2016
I hate the way
my voice sounds,
because sometimes
it comes off loud and
sometimes I give an attitude
when I honestly do not mean to.

But no one believes me.

I was raised in loudness.
Constant yelling, screaming , shouting , and rudeness.

I am coated with hatred.

Nothing calm, sweet and nice to be found, not even in the corners of my home.

I'm sorry.
I'm truly kind and caring,
only somewhat broken,
I promise.
Alaska Sep 2017
My soul is drowning with sorrow and
I can't seem to swim...
Alaska Mar 2017
You often cross my mind,
not in a hateful way,
trust me,
but more of...
I'm just really wondering
how you are doing...
Alaska Feb 2016
I don't know...
Is it so bad to
want a friendship
you once had back?
One that you miss so much,
that your heart aches?
One that you miss so much,
you get so anxious and begin to
to cry when you're alone in
your room at night?
One that you miss so much,
that when you see them
you can't breathe and can't help
but shake?
If that's that's the case,
then call me me a
******* criminal.
Alaska Apr 2016
She whispered,
"I love you"

as he stared
off into the
distance

"Did you say
something?"

He turned
his head
towards hers.

"No."
"say I love you, when you're not listening."
Alaska Mar 2017
You're hiding who you are
and I hope you realize
that once you show everyone
the real you, they will love you
even more.
Alaska Apr 2018
Looks like that dream I had came true...
I needed you
and you could not be bothered...
Alaska Oct 2016
We're just two broken hearted people trying to make it through our messes together.
Alaska Sep 2017
You were actually
         the first one
     to completely ignore
how I felt and I
         guess that's why
     it hurts so much.

I want to learn
script, so maybe
I can feel as pretty
as my handwriting.
Alaska Apr 2016
I'll never forget the time
you laughed at me
when I told you I was
stupid for scratching at my face viciously,

leaving me with a scab
under the bags of my right eye.

I stood there crying as you laughed.

Who knew that would be
the start of my anxiety attacks.
Alaska Oct 2016
Do not let
sadness take control
your life.
Smile as big
as you can,
love with
your whole
heart, and
laugh as loud
as you can.
Alaska Mar 2016
I'm in love
with you

and I don't
want to be

this has happened
before

I can't be
in love with
you because you're
not in love
with me.

And that's okay!
You are not
required to be.

But it's not
good for me,
mentally

to want something
more with someone
I can't have.

*God, please give me the strength to not hold onto these feelings.
