Night sky
Zoe Robert Aug 2013
Staring at the night sky riddled with stars,
I wonder, are you looking at them too?
thinking about me too?
wondering if I'm watching the same stars as you?

The Swing
Zoe Robert Jul 2013
And as time passes by slowly,
I remain swinging, back and forth, higher and higher.
Tilting my head backward, I let my hair flow in the summery breeze,
every bad thought disappears for a while and I smell the scent of freedom.

Same old day
Zoe Robert Jul 2013
Everyday seems to be the same,
I heard that life was meant to be full of excitement and enjoyment,
but all I seem to do is sit alone,
staring at the wall in front of me,
contemplating my life in negative ways,
wishing for change,
I try to move,
but I always end up back to where I began,
sitting alone,
in the dark,
wishing for change.

A Hamartia or Two
Zoe Robert Aug 2013
My smile is too big,
My nose is crooked,
My feet point slightly inwards when I walk,
My teeth are gappy,
My laugh is too loud,
but then again..
in my eyes these things are hamartias,
but in someone elses eyes they may be the definition of beautiful,
and anyway,
it's rare to find someone completely happy with themselves,
So we should forget these "flaws",
and learn to love the skin we're in,
for we will be wearing it for a long time.

relationship difficulty
Zoe Robert Dec 2013
You cling to my mind like a trees roots to the ground,
You're delicate like the skeleton of a leaf,
You have a face that glows even in the darkest of days,
but I'll never be everything you need
because for I am a rock,
cold,
introvert,
heartless,
I am no good for you..

An old rusty dagger pierced into my heart,
you told me that we'd never part.

Sometimes
Zoe Robert Dec 2013
Sometimes when you cross my mind,
I smile,
then other times,
the thought of you,
brings me to tears
