You never really looked like
someone who would stay
and i never really looked like
someone you’d waste a minute or a day

Poem | Insults (#184)
Your insults echoed in my mind
it made me awake
all throughout the night
every day I face everyone with fright
thinking that I am a disaster in their sight
Poem | How To Be Safe (#183)
Don’t fall in love, it’s a trap
have a heart but have it tightly wrapped
listen to what he says
but before believing,
have him traced
Poem | All For Nothing (#183)
I spent my whole day playing games
just for a single token
I spent hours forcing myself to sleep
just to have me awakened
I spent my whole life waiting for love
just to leave me broken
Poem | Replaced (#182)
I sorta knew
what you would do
when there comes another view
I sorta smiled
and kept my emotions aside
when it was her you suddenly eyed
Poem | The Thing I Do Best (#181)
I was never the prettiest
when it comes to being chosen
I was never first
when it comes to performing
I ain’t even second best
when it comes to falling
I know I’d need a vest
but when it comes to loving,
I take out all the love that’s in my chest
Poem | I Thought I Was Beautiful (#179)
I am the flower, you are the bee. All the while I’d willingly wait, trying to be as sweet, wanting to give you a treat.
You are the bee, you’d come around, flying up high as I look at you from the ground.
I am Lois Lane, staring up, you are my superman and I’m waiting for you to come down.
But like a flower I could not leave where I’ve been standing. And like a bee, I know you’d soon be stinging.

I didn’t lose track of my life the moment I met you. You didn’t keep my dreams from coming true. I was done wanting to be the queen of the world. I’m done lining up for fame trying so hard for people to know my name.
They say you’ll just let me down; you had my dreams flying away the moment you came around. But trust me, there’s more to that than what you’ve done. The second your eyes met mine, the minute you spoke the truth from your heart instead of your mind, I knew I’m through with keeping my life following one same dull line. You didn’t ruin me, you did not do anything to let me forget who I was supposed to be. In fact, you made me realize what I really want the most in life.

Help me, I’m poetry stained. The words are drowning me, grabbing me the moment I get a grip f reality. Reality, that’s where I ought to be, but here I am, finding solace in the complicated phrases of every fiction in front of me. Hold my hand, pull me until I could finally stand the cruelty of the world that’s too far from where I wanted it to be.
