Nothing Left But Poetry

Poems of the loved, the lovers, the broken, the lost, the found and all in between

[poemtothelost]

And now I just sit in silence Sometimes quiet is violent I find it hard to hide it My pride is no longer inside It's on my sleeve My skin will scream reminding me of Who I killed inside my dream I hate this car that I'm driving There's no hiding for me I'm forced to deal with what I feel There is no distraction to mask what is real I could pull the steering wheel

I ponder of something great My lungs will fill and then deflate They fill with fire, exhale desire I know it's dire my time today

Car Radio- Twenty One Pilots

[poemtothelost]

I ponder of something terrifying 'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind I find over the course of our human existence One thing consists of consistence And it's that we're all battling fear Oh dear, I don't know if we know why we're here

It was hard to lose someone that I had loved with every ounce of my body, it was hard; to watch them go.

Life, he realize, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it’s in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile.

Nicholas Sparks (via observando)

I never knew it would feel like this. I never thought I’d be so scared to lose someone. I never thought I could want to be with someone so badly. I never knew I was capable of feeling this. I never knew I was capable of feeling anything. So fuck you, you lying, backstabbing, painfully honest, beautiful, sweet, loving boy. Fuck you and all you made me feel. Cause i have never been so scared before and I have never felt so much. And you will break my heart again, I know you will. So why do I stay? Because i can’t breath, I can’t love, I can’t live without you.

So let me be the solar system The galaxies of longing twisting and tumbling inside Let the gravities of pain be a constant pull I want life to grow and fall under me Let the winds and storms cause my heartbreak Let my tears fall as rain Let the lovers dance beneath me Let them kiss under my twinkling eyes Let them believe in shooting stars Let them look up as I look to you Because if I’m a solar system Let you be my universe

I want to be the stars Silently gleaming my cheers To dismantle the sun and the moon For an eternity of fiery nightlight

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one; Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun; Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood. For nothing now can ever come to any good.

I want to be the sun Heart on fire with passion For my love of the moon

I don't still love you

I'd hate for you to think that I'm like this because of you. The truth is you couldn't have effected me this much. I was already broken and you just picked up a small shard and took it with you. You weren't the one who smashed me in the first place. I don't want you to feel bad about it. I also don't want you to have the ego boost to think you could have done this.

[poemtothelost]

I always hated you with your cigarettes But when you left I started smoking To remember what you taste like I breathe in your breath And hold it against me to feel you in my chest once again I push you away Letting you fall in love with the air particles I wake up with stale smoke on my breath Like you climbed inside me And slept the night

I want to be the moon Drunk on the stars because I can never have the sun

1. You’d take him back. You’d take him back in a heartbeat, if it meant being his again. 2. The reason you didn’t sleep last night isn’t that you had to stay up doing homework till three in the morning. The reason is that you were going through old text conversations looking for a change. A shift, somewhere that you can identify as the point where he stopped loving you like before. Those kinds of things keep you up at night now. 3. You don’t need him anymore, but you want him. You want his smile in the morning and his laugh and his dumb jokes and his funny faces. You want it all because he means the world to you and every part of him is a part that you want to love. 4. You’re seventeen, but you drink like you’ve lived a lifetime of pain. You drink because you’ve had your heart ripped out- and you have tried to replace his love with other things, but only alcohol can make your heart race the way he used to. 5. Coffee tastes bitter on your tongue but you read online somewhere that it makes you less hungry so now you like bitter. Bitter is the only thing you want. And in the back of your mind you know it isn’t healthy and it’s not right but maybe if you get a little thinner you’ll be worth loving. Maybe if you tried a little harder at looking the right way and talking the right way rather than being loud and hungry, you’ll be enough. He’s made you question everything, and suddenly all you’ll wonder is why you weren’t worth loving. 6. You’d take him back. You’d take him back and you’d do anything to make him want you again, even when you know that he probably never wanted you in the first place.

I wish you had stopped saying that you loved me when you stopped meaning it
