Poems that I write. Poetry is vunerable as hell and can feel a little embarrassing to share with others but it is one of my favorite ways to express how I feel. So ,Enjoy. I hope I conveyed my feelings in a way that is easily understood. Or maybe poetry is about being misunderstood. I am not sure.. Take it as you will
'Little birds"
My anxiety eats me alive as I sit here in a quaint little garden in the middle of Manhattan. I want to be one of the little birds bouncing around my feet as I sit here. If I was a little bird I would have no worries. Sounds blissful...I wish they could give me a piece of their ignorance. We could all fly far far away where emotions flow seamlessly and everyone's heart is open. A dream world. Take me away little birds.
"The Seasons change, Did you” ?
I wanna send you this movie
Maybe it will give you some insight on how I feel
The unpredictability kills me and maybe I should wait but this
Feeling is something I can’t seem to shake
As cold as the autumn breeze
As comforting as the falling leaves
You left me cold yet comforted
The seasons change just as feelings do
When the season changed you left with it too.
At least I wanted to see where things could lead
If what I thought what I knew was true
I guess we will never know I am just tired of you
I am leading myself on as time goes by and this poem will probably make me cry. But I am leaving the idea of you behind as the seasons go by.
"The Aries full moon "
The moon watches over me everywhere I look
It’s always there
Bringing comfort and light to me and the sky
A night like this looking for someone to share it with
But it’s just me and my cat looking at the moon wondering who
but
I can never be lonely I have the moon!
"The sun & me"
Moments are fleeting
As are Emotions
Moments like these are the ones I try to appreciate
My morning walk to class
I could be a little put out that I woke up late and didn’t get out the door at exactly 8.
But I choose joy this morning
A visually pleasing fall morning where the sun finally came out to say hello
Even on this cold windy day .
I’m walking steadily but with force
Did I mention I’m late to class?
Oh well. Too bad.
The day is bright and I’m doing just alright
Mornings like today are the lights of my tiny life here in New York
Walking past others I see a slight glimmer in their eye on this morning commute
More of a glimmer than yesterday
When the rain and clouds took all the bliss away
Or maybe this is my projection of my delight reflecting back onto their faces.
Whatever it seems to be
I’m glad I woke up this way
And I’m sure I’ll wake up to many more days where I feel the exact opposite
But I’m talking about today! Ok?
I couldn’t let this train of thought pass but I still have more of a journey to go in life and on my walk to math
So I must leave you with the thought that emotions come and they go & you never know which one will happen to show. So be patient and let them grow & grow
It’s a beautiful thing to feel, Sadness, Happiness. Feel it all. Instead of nothing at all.
"How to be"
Waking up in the morning feeling melancholy and deciding that this is my theme for today
I’m not gonna crack a smile or give anyone kind eyes
Im gonna look at my feet and keep to myself
Until I take a step out the door
It is impossible for me to feel this way for too long,
Emotions are fleeting as they say and mine are constantly running away
Leaving me with a new feeling to analyze
I can’t help but smile at a stranger or say what is on my mind
I am cursed with the inability to be cold
Even when I want to be
"Bedwritten"
With no where to go
No one to see
It’s just my pillows,stuffed animals & me
I imagine they are my little friends
The only things here when the days end
In & out of a dream
Dreaming of what
I’m not sure
The answer is unclear & it might always be
I wake up & it is still just me.
What a theme that happens to prevail in my everyday life
Filled with mystery i so deeply despise
I’m aware beauty is mystery & uncertainty near leaves
But I would like to know just for a second , a spilt second Where this all leads
So if you know
Please share
Something that is longer than just a stare
But you don’t, & you never will
Because you are you & I am me
"Warmth within you"
It’s winter now & im colder than I have ever been
The leaves are changing & falling away
Leaving bare branches to stare at me day after day
Will the winter be filled with warmth?
Warmth is something I cherish
Something most people don’t possess
To have the gift of being warm
you must’ve been cold before
That moment has passed
As they all do
And now your filled with comfort within you
Keep that comfort
Don’t let it run away
Hold it in your pocket
Make sure it’s here to stay
This warmth will stay with you
If you let it
Let it knock on the door to your heart and open it within
"Sit with me please"
Sit with me
If you would
If you care to at all
Let’s sit together and watch the rain fall
With Not much words to say
Silence can be comfortable
As long as is the company
You are comfortable to me
Writing love poems that some will never get to see
Sit with me
If you dare
Let’s see what the silence will bring to each others ears
Maybe sounds of love
Maybe sounds of despair
Sit with me
Sit with me
If you dare......
Some of my favorite pieces of writing. The way people express themselves through words is very special to me.
