poetry every day. day 11
i wish that i could dream about you forever
maybe it could become a reality
never say never
you’re the main thing that i’m missing
the way we get so close to kissing
all those unfinished conversations
how we’d get into complications
you’re the main thing i’ve been missing
those eyes that guided mine
taking your clothes off in my mind
you were my hyper coloured crush
i hate how you never rushed
i saw that as a sign
that you don’t want to be mine
so my honesty will only stay in a dream
because there you can never leave
you’re the main thing i’ve been missing
and i’ve been thinking
have you been missing me?
poetry every day. DAY 10
my god has a hidden sunset in her smile
and when she sees you try hard and struggle
she makes it worth while
and my god is a bisexual
with one crooked eye
she dresses so casual
with big hips and white lies
she sleeps in the mountains
she cries to the moon
she’s sick of men doubting
they thinks she’s up to no good
my god oh my god
she never sleeps
her wallpaper pulled apart
as she hides in between the walls
i see her in the corner of my eyes when i cannot breathe
my god is pretty
and so much smarter than me
i prayed to her last night
as she appeared in my dream
she told me it’s alright
as she lifted my self eestem
i know that one day
she’ll no longer be real
but until then
my god my god
she helps me heal
// i don’t think i like this one it’s just a bit meh but idk. :))
poetry every day. day 9
he’s tempted by her sundress
lipstick and her hair a mess
he should really keep it in his pants
but he doesn’t know no better
i guess i got to teach him a lesson
i’m not playing games no i’m not messing
i guess i got to teach him a lesson
standing in a field
he leans in to cop a feel
i am not the one
i am holding the gun
he kisses me and overthinks
ain’t it funny how his ego shrinks
he never thought i’d be his first kiss
but you get what you give
you get what you give
you get what you give
i was his first kiss
and baby it meant nothing
his parents must not have taught him right
when a woman says no
it’s pretty clarified
my mother taught me better than this
i won’t put up my bloody fists
i will teach him a lesson
with words and progression
confusion delusion
and my pretty little threats
ANd i’m not saying your name
cause i won’t play that game
but boy you got played
and if you ever make
the same mistakes
i’m make sure to make you regret
i’ll make your palms sweat
your parents should’ve raised you better than that
poetry every day. day 8
a collaboration of all generations
we came together to suffer
i spent my days awake in my bedroom
calling and crying to my mother
we all prayed to god
but we said the wrong name
i prayed that nothing will be the same as early days
we scream loud to the rich deaf choir
as they sleep soundly in the quiet
i sometimes wish i wasn’t so blind
for i am holding back my power in my vulnerable times
this love isn’t defiant
but true love ends in violence
but this is life
this is june
this is fine
this is youth.

DONALD TRUMP TRIED TO STEAL A BABY
WE LET HIM TAKE IT BECAUSE OF MEMES
// i’ve got such a bad headache.
POETRY every DAY. Day 6
she waited for me for hours
sat in a field pulling apart the flowers
and im sure you could look at that as a metaphor
but nothing is that serious when it’s about her
we talked about her boyfriend and how she liked girls
we talked about how i feel disconnected from the world
we laughed till our jaws were in pain
but i knew then life wouldn’t be the same
and we smoked till our lungs turned sour
we didn’t realise the time
we had been there for hours
talking about life
and how we wanted to leave
it felt weird as my heart was on my sleeve
and i finally felt like i could breathe.
we said our goodbyes
and now i’m home
and for the first time i don’t feel so alone
// went outside for the first time for days to sit in a field with a friend (social distanced obvs) and we spoke for hours about almost everything. dark deep stuff but in a positive light. i feel so normal now.
poetry every day. day 5
how can a father hide so much shame.
as he distanced himself from his soon to be child
he didn’t think about my future pain.
as he calls his sons mother seven years later
to scream and complain
that his soon “to be solider” enjoyed taking part in ballet
as of now i’m living my teens
people say i’ve got his face.
i just count myself lucky
that i don’t have his brain,
as he calls me monthly to talk about his busy day.
how can a father show so much shame
even though he lives so far away
he didn’t think twice whether i was the one to feel so guilty
all the things he could have taught me
the only lesson given
is a demonstration
on how a father
shouldn’t
be.
//yeah happy father’s day :/ i don’t know if its okay to be this open and vulnerable on tumblr tbh i’m still kinda new to all this but yaaa. masculinity is overrated. i’m taking all the issues revolving around my dad and turning them into lessons and as a guide on what a man should and mostly shouldn’t be.
poetry every day. day 4
there was a war so many years ago
we all came together
the young and the old
how havent you heard ?
it’s the saddest story told
but is it true? it can’t be true?
listen to what they’re telling you!
the streets were covered in broken historical statues
because we all decided this big city needs new rules.
all our mothers cry
because it seems we’re never to young to die.
we’re never to young to die.
whoever said that life is a privilege
must have been white.
i’m ashamed.
i’m afraid.
hoping the right kind of people make it to the other side
we are strong enough to survive
i want the next chapter
i want everybody to have rights
i want everybody to shine a better light.
but we are never to young to die.
// it’s difficult to put all the sympathy in words. i feel ashamed. i feel angry.
poetry a day... day 3
growing up an over thinker
this is something i most fear
if the problems move on
will i disappear?
// short one but i wrote this in my journal back in april and it’s stuck with me. i am the problem. all i am is problems- everyone is full of problems. it’s human nature. i wish i knew that back in april though. :)
MELODRAMA FOREVER
(this took me so longgggg)

just gotta cope w it
poetry a day. day 2
A Conversation With My Ceiling
i sat on my bedroom floor today- talking to the ceiling.
i told him all my secrets and all the feelings i wish i weren’t feeling.
he stared seductively, not saying what i wanted to hear,
it’s almost as if he was making fun of me because he knows it’s the silent types i fear.
i held onto the carpet as i insulted him for not saying a thing
but then all my feelings were changing as my knuckles were beginning to sting.
i know now that the ceiling wasn’t talking but listening without acknowledging
i know now he wanted my anger to released
because he’s tired of feeling nothing
i know now why he wasn’t talking.
it’s because he was absorbing.
//AHH i made that up on the spot in 5 minutes but i like it. today i was home alone and a mess so i sat and started talking to the ceiling and i said “i wish someone could just take away these feelings ... ceiling you can have them because i know you feel nothing” and thus a poem was born.
poetry a day. day 1
i missed you
i thought i wouldn’t bare the sight of you
all of the misplaced words and petty little wars
to be honest i thought i hated you
and although it’s still a fresh wound
i can put a plaster on it
cause i am not afraid to admit
i missed you
i missed you a little bit
let’s not start from the beginning
let’s start right now
i ignore your grinning
how are you doing
are you doing okay
let’s go through the small talk
we can talk about our day
take a walk into the rain
oh how i missed you although never even left my brain
//i’m completely new to tumblr and i’m super god damn bored so BAM poetry
it’s about a boy i argued with really badly about two months ago and i hated his guts and tbh low-key still do. somehow with these feelings of anger and pure hatred - i can’t keep him off my mind. i miss him but i hate him.
