Is it possible to fall in love with someone’s mouth?
I swear the first night we spoke I couldn’t keep my eyes off of it.
The way your lips passed over your teeth when you smiled,
I became obsessed.
I vowed to know your mouth better than my own.
I studied it every day, watching how it corresponded with your mood and your words.
I had never loved anything so much in my entire life.
I wanted it to collide with my own. I wanted everything I loved about it to melt into all that I was.
I wanted to feel it on every part of me, and I wanted to never know anything else.
I didn’t feel anything for so long
and then you came into my life
and I felt everything at once
A Poem By Me:
Fire. I’m on fire.
White hot desire
Burns my soul, burns in me
Rips at my corneas, I can not see
Falling, falling, I can not breathe
And it seems,
I cannot be,
I’m in too deep
And I cannot reach
I grab at your hand
But I cannot stand
But your face
That perfect face
I want a single taste
And I want more
So much more
I want to explore
Your body,we hit the floor
But you’re so far away
And you never stay
Not for long
I don’t feel strong
I feel a mess
I feel more than a mess
More like a disaster
And it’s all a blur
But in the best possible way
And I just wait for the day
That I don’t let you go
And we grow
Together we grow
And we go
Away we go
Poison dart
Grown dark
But you,
You light my insides
And our lives become intertwined
Falling in stride
Side by side
You have my heart I swear
I accept you like a school yard dare
Swallow my pride
Changing the tide
By your side
Mountains shake
Earths quake
And this I take
Til I break
This is all I need
You and me
At first sight you are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever laid eyes on,
But you’re hard and distant,
And it takes all the force in the world to get you to let your guard down.
You tend to try to upset me,
Especially when you think I’m trying to hurt you,
But you have to know deep down I never would.And when you smile, or when you laugh,
I can see my own world melt away.
And when I get you to speak freely,
I feel myself falling willingly
And I hope to god I fall into your arms.
You see her everywhere, in the strangers passing by,
That apathetic look, that surrendering sigh.
Sometimes she’ll smile, or laugh, and you’ll believe,
She’s happy, and healthy, but you’ll be deceived.
Because behind the girl with the fading smile,
Is someone who doesn’t plan on being around for a while.
She gave up along time ago,
She’s dead inside but you don’t know.
She lost her heart to the one she loved,
And after that she had had enough.
But if you looked through her bag you would find the pills,
Or if you lifted up her sleeves, you’d see the cuts that kill.
But no one bothered, no one took a second glance,
So now is her time to take a chance.
She’ll take the pills, and the blood will flow,
She’ll be gone in the morning, and you won’t even know.
I posted this poem I wrote a yearish ago but I found it and this is exactly how I feel right now, so I’m reposting it.
A poem by me:
I can’t make everyone happy.
I can’t make anybody happy.
I can’t make myself happy.
I can’t make myself happy when nobody else is happy.
I can’t make decisions that make me happy.
I can’t make decisions that make me happy when nobody’s happy.
I can’t be happy when nobody’s happy.
I can’t be happy.
A poem by me: We knew this was coming. I was hopeful. You knew it all along. We tried to make it work for us. I couldn’t do enough. You stopped trying. We always said we’d make it. I pretended we weren’t falling apart. You always knew the truth. We used to be so close. I have never felt so distant. You have never been so far away. We had the world at our feet. I was prepared to give you everything. You were prepared to watch me suffer. We were going to have it all. I let you walk all over me. You made sure to stomp me into the ground. We were supposed to be in love. I gave you my heart. You ruined my life.
A poem by me:
I once met a girl staring at a lake,
Her tears were real but her smile was fake.
I asked her why she stared so longingly,
She said “it has my chance to finally be free.”
I didn’t understand her, but I knew she wasn’t fine.
How could someone be so sad, but smile the whole time?
So I stood next to the girl, her smile plastered on
And watched the shadow come over her with the setting sun.
I felt obligated to stay, to make sure she was okay,
Because something told me that today was her day.
I didn’t want to leave, so I sat down on the ground.
She sat too, but she didn’t make a sound.
I watched her feel the water, and she told me it was cold.
She said she didn’t mind it, it made her feel at home.
I asked her what had gone so wrong,
She said she was hoping it wouldn’t be lonely, that someone would come along.
She thanked me for fulfilling her very last wish, and slowly stood.
I wanted to save her, to hold her, to love her but I didn’t think I could.
I watched her closely as she quietly said,
“If only you understood the thoughts in my head,
I gave my all, each and everyday, to everyone and everything”
I waited for more when she started to grin.
“You know, you start to feel hollow when you always give your all,
But I have nothing left to give.” And she started to bawl.
I wanted to comfort her, but I knew she had made up her mind,
Before walking into the water, she thanked me for being so kind,
And then onward she went, letting the water slowly rise to her waist,
Her body got lost the deeper she went, and soon I could only see her face.
I wanted to save her, to hold her, to love her.
But by the time I was ready, she had already gone under.
A poem by me:
I’m ugly.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I’m intense.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I never fight back.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I don’t know how to cry.
Why doesn’t he love me?
In fact, I show no emotion at all.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I hate my voice.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I avoid people to avoid judgement.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I want to smash my reflection.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I fuck up every situation.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I can’t take criticism.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I’m not good at anything.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I overanalyze everything.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I don’t respect myself.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I let other people control my life.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I live mostly in my head.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I run away from everyone including myself.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I don’t think I have a heart.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I’m stupid.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I hate myself.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I hate everything about myself.
Why doesn’t he love me?
I don’t love myself.
Why should he?
A Poem By Me:
I want to be one with the ocean,
And bathe in the deep blue.
Cleansed of all emotion,
Let my heart soak in the sea.
And as the water fills my lungs I forget how to breathe.
The opportunity I finally seize.
At last I am completely free.
Disclaimer: I will never write something so cheesy again, it’s just one of those poems you write straight from the heart without making it sounds good. It’s just exactly how you feel without being beautiful. So my apologies.
Please stop lying,
Because I’m so tired of trying to understand.
Why do you insist on running away?
When I’ve been trying so hard to make you stay.
It would never be so easy for me to leave you,
After everything that we’ve been through.
I just wish you’d listen,
To all the apologies you’re missing.
I swear that since the night you said goodbye,
I lost all the light from my eyes.
I know you’re stubborn, and so am I,
But before this you never liked making me cry.
Now I’m just a big joke to you,
And I can’t believe you don’t have a clue.
I wish you’d open your eyes and see,
Just how fucking much you mean to me.
