poetism
chapter I :
insurrection
My writings are all about you.
I adore to write and think
but I’m running out of inc
remember when you told me
“but you used to love pink.”
I used to, but now I’m in the dark.
my dreams , my wishes
are all left in spark
I waited for you in that park.
You called and apologized
I said it's okay and did not criticize
but my heart felt cold.
so I came back to the road
it was twilight, so I couldn’t see
as the moon was rising upon the sea
came back home all alone
honey I called you on the phone
what took you so long ?
I couldn’t respond
as dad was mumbling all along
you’re late
uhhhh! I hesitate
here I prepared you some food
thanks but I’m not in the mood
let her be !
she’s having an emotional flood
have some sleep honey
maybe tomorrow will be better
it’s okay mom it doesn’t matter
but I’m sick of you
I’m sick of everyone in this room
stop asking me to change
and quit the gloom
sorry mom but
I’m not a flower that’s about to bloom
you know what they say
“eyes never lie”
but you left my heart to die
as you did stand by
chapter II :
the untold story
I don’t feel like writing in the cold
my little hands are shaking
as the snow fall
it’s raining and kinda frozen
my pen , my messy papers
they’re all dragging me back
as if I am the one they had chosen
I stare at stars in the night
only to feel part of the universe
and I remembered what you told me
“believe me if I can give you the world I would
stay beside I think that’s good “
I laughed and tell you say no more
please leave and close the door
but still it hurts
everytime I recall your words
you showed no mercy
and planted in me a curse
but that’s not what I deserved
it was only your soul to be served
I ripped all of your pictures
and hide it in a folder
I thought finally god
I became more bolder
but I felt colder
each time I remember
what you did told her
angles are weeping, wishing we met
when we were older
“ I’m so sorry if I ever hurt your feelings “
but you did when you didn’t tell me that you are leaving
It was our story , the untold story,
that I appeared to be all this time
weaving
chapter III :
strawberry
I think about you even when it’s late
I still care about you even
when you are the one that my heart
mostly hate or maybe
that’s what I tell myself
I care about you even when it’s eight.
when I arrive at the school gate
I still care about you even
when you were the one with
whom I used to fight
now there’s only my sore eyes
yearning for a sight of you
under the light
I care about you in the cold
when the snow falls and it’s breezing
so you give me your jacket
because you thought I was freezing
I think about you when I look at the star
because you promised
“ we will never be apart “
I think about you when I write my diaries
I think about you even
when I’m eating strawberries
chapter IV :
fairytale
I’m not your sleeping beauty
and you’re not my prince charming
we’re not some fairytale characters
because we’re living in a reality
that could be sometimes harming
I’m not the evil queen
and you are not captain hook
because there’s no place for evil
in my storybook
but if I want to give you a character that looks just like you
you would definitely be peter pan
and we’d fly straight to Japan
and I would take my favourite book
if I can
but what if we loose our magic forever
maybe it’ll be a little tragic however
we will be together whatsoever
or maybe I can be belle
and you can be the beast
and we would dance in a ball
after enjoying the feast
maybe you’re under a curse from the witch of the east
but you still have a good heart at least
and when the curse is gone
and the good finally won
we’ll get married in the big castle thereafter the end will be
“ and they lived happily ever after “
chapter V :
Repentance
my rage can go in different shapes
first denial
I deny knowing you
I deny our walk under the light of the moon
I deny our chat in the middle of June
I deny me and you eating icecreams with
all it’s different flavors every afternoon
honestly I hate it when you treat me as a
child
I mean we were both acting like kids
paly with balloons and you did
recommended to watch some cartoons
you used to tell me
“ put your guitar in tune
let’s sing and dance
let’s have some fun goon ! “
you saw the world differently than I did
and I would laugh
until my stomach hurts
because as always you would sing the
words wrong
and I would follow you all along
second grief
my heart would feel like December
with all the things that I can remember
mourning , tears and cries
using all the house tissues
’til my mom notices
that I’ve got some issues
I’ve come to the final stage acceptance
now I think I became more conscious
accept everything with ease
became a little bit more quite
so low you’re voice when you’re talking please
no more vapid promises and guarantees
no more crying and weeping on my
knees
weeping and saying “do not leave please”
“ it is what it is “ instead of a long term
speech when you play the victim so well
until it makes me screech
and you know respect is for me sacred
but it’s the thing you try each time to breach
I’ve grown flowers around my heart
it’s so beautiful that you can never reach
to those who think I’m writing about them
I am
