Reccent poetry I’ve written

Hello and happy Saturday I wanted to share with you some of my recent poetry I’ve written hope you enjoy 🥰

City Lights

Bright lights, bright lights are all I see. She pulled me further and further into the crowd. The music was loud, and if I looked away for one second I’d lose her because of all the people but in that moment all I saw was her. The way she swayed, the way the lights danced across her lips. All I wanted to do was grab her hips and pull her close, I needed to feel the way the music made her sway. She turned back and smiled at me and I caught my breath, if only I knew how she felt. But until then I’ll just stand here mesmerized by all of the bright lights that dance around her.

Andrew

July 20 it happened one minute you not even In my thoughts and then there you are but this time it’s in a whole new light , I just assumed they were talking about somebody else, like I said you hadn’t crossed my mind. But you were dead, it was too painful to processes at that moment, I shouldn’t have felt this way. I shouldn’t have let it get to me, but at one time you meant the world to me.. I loved you, I shouldn’t have, I know I shouldn’t have.. They said you killed yourself. I didn’t go to your funeral, I was to scared, I didn’t want to see the fragile and broken person who killed himself. You’re gone now and there is nothing I can do, I just wish I could go back and tell how much I really loved you.

Love! Love! I hear the panic screams from the other room, when I find him he’s far too gone, he’s covered in sweat “ please don’t let me die” he pleads over and over again. I wipe the sweaty hair from his face as I reassure him I’m not going to let him go. His brain and body have failed him once again as the seizure takes over his body. They only last a few minutes but I swear it feels like forever when I can finally release the breath I’ve been holding and know that the evil monster didn’t take him away…

Don’t fear the reaper

I can still taste you on my lips, your sent lingers in my hair, and your holding my hand as you drive me home, I never wanted the night to end. I wanted to be forever tangled up in those terrible hotel sheets I wanted to have Halloween movies playing on loop in the background. I giggled as you pulled my shirt up, as what we both wanted lingered in the air. “You’re so beautiful” he whispered. My heart skipped a beat as those beautiful greenish blue eyes starred into mine. My eyes fell down onto his lips that were not smiling at me with a devilish grin, that damn lip ring will be the death of me.. I screamed silently “oh Haley if only you could tell your teenage self about this beautiful man standing in front of you” I didn’t realize I said that out loud until I heard him chuckle from across the bed. And before I knew it he found his way on top of me stealing every last breath from me.

Sleepy eyes

I try and get onto the bed as quietly as possible, it’s too early and I don’t want to wake him. But the way I shift on the bed stirs him out of sleep, and those beautiful sleepy eyes fall on mine “good morning love” the words fall off his lips and I’m taken aback once again because if theirs any thing that can break my heart it’s those beautiful sleepy eyes.

🍋

Miss you

Why do I miss you why do I miss talking to you? But let’s be honest You were never mine to have. But I miss the way you made me smile the way my heart raced every time your name popped up. If I’m being honest with you but mostly myself I miss talking to you I miss it so damn much all I get now from you is a S and a blank screen, I’d give anything to talk to you forever.

i’ve been in my mind at least a thousand times.

I think of you, but I thought of him.

I’m in my head help me get out.

I over think and I over think, till the words start spilling out. I wanted her, she never cared. His love is amazing. I hated myself for far to long. I’m spinning and spinning help me out. He’s got my heart and that’s all that should matter. I wish I could make sense of these words that are spilling out. But once again I’m brought back here. Oh please help me out of here.

Monster

I cried today at the sound of your name. Cause it brought back to many feelings, feelings I didn’t want to remember. It broke my heart though cause I once loved you, I know I did. I remember seeing myself in your eyes the last time we spoke, it scared me because it wasn’t me i saw, it was this monster whom I’ve never met before. I saw the hate in this monster, I never once hated you, I think you knew that, i think that’s why it took you so long to believe it was me. You thought I wouldn’t hurt you.. But I did, but you have to believe it was the monster. It wasn’t me, I loved you, remember?
