Every Day Poems

2023-05-11 05:38:29 Musing of a Solitary Soul

I dwell in a realm of my own,
Aloof from the clamor and the throng.
I don’t crave approval or validation,
To make me feel strong.

I favor literature and melody,
To revelry and banter.
I relish seclusion and tranquility,
To rumor and slander.

I have a zeal for wisdom,
And a fervor for exploration.
I pursue novel things and places,
And pen them in my chronicle.

I may be solitary, but I’m not forsaken,
I have myself and my confidant.
I may be secluded, but I’m not dull,
I have my inquisitiveness and my flair.

I say let's be tired together.

Let's bury our sad dreams,
Until the horizon is gloaming.

He told me he loved me with thorns and all,
I never thought it was only until I began to fall,
Clipping the thorns was one thing,
But discarding all of me was another painful sting.

Why didn't you ever tell me the reason,
As to why you chose to let go in this season?

2023-05-10 23:16:12 I think, sometimes I think too much. Sometimes I think your smile caresses my scars and leaves my wounds healed.

I think, sometimes I think too much, to think you would actually think of me.

I think, sometimes I shouldn't think at all.

2023-05-10 21:09:12 No, I want you to know that it isn't easy for me to open up.
I have had trouble
opening about my feelings since I was never asked.
And now that you are asking.
It's a system not built in me anymore.

It's not like I don't trust you.
I just don't trust myself enough for what I might reveal.

And I pray it happens slower and better than it happened to me.

2023-05-10 16:27:10 When those eyes of yours drip
And shatters your heart, so frail,
You would be there for you,
Let the illusion prevail.

I kept gazing at the endless abyss in your eyes.
Is there anything left,
Or did you take all my pieces with you?
And left me asunder.

2023-05-04 22:33:15 I hope I've been the best student in the lessons of life, I wish I've learnt everything for the both of us.

I hope that the only reason you'll stay up all night is to ace that exam the next day and not to drown in confusion trying to make sense of broken words and gaslighting yourself into believing a glaring lie like I've done one to many times.

I hope the only reason tears are drawn out of your beautiful eyes is nothing more than joy or the unfortunate end of a movie not for a fickle soul, not for the pain of having your efforts unreciprocated and even worse, trampled.

My sweet little angel, I hope mommy's been great of a student in the lessons of life, I hope I've earned enough scars for the both of us. Open / Comment

2023-05-04 20:26:12 She feared touching him, despite his warmth seeping into her that her frosted skin stole every morsel of,

she was hesitant of what could his fervency be made of, what lies under it, and if it was colder than her own skin.

Even though she was beckoned with each of his features casting light on her, giving her forgotten self a name to be, she was ready to escape anytime before it abandoned her,

yet she wished to give in, the fears never grew more than her longings, she yearned to look beneath that skin while finding spots on that warm expanse where no one ever reached, none of those he presented his luring smiles to.

And what more can her fears morph into if not the love she awaited? Her butterflies could be liars but, she was willing to give them a chance to listen every time they erupted.
