White, white, white

Written on



Oh, such a sweet misery

Out on a day so dreary

The earth is snug in its cap of snow

And cold, biting winds do blow

The white above, white below

Silence raging wherever they go

But white with you is different

I foresee we’ll see a happy end

And though everything looks the same

I feel warm from your cheeks of flame

The red flush after my: “Hey, I like you

And I wonder if you like me too”

Your eyes downcast, toward the snow

And I wonder where I’ll go, if not with you

‘Cause my predictions start to fog up

It’s torture waiting for you to fess up too

Your speech is sure compelling but

Your silence can punctuate my empty skies

You draw out the longest sigh

And my teeth suddenly chatter

A glance at the snowflakes scattered

In your long dark-brown mane

It is my biggest bane now!

I know the sorry before I hear

It; pouring through my ear

I regret coming here…

Oh, everything looks the same.

You are cold from my cheeks of flame

The red flush after your: “Aww I’m sorry, boo

I don’t have the same feelings for you”

My eyes downcast, toward the snow

How to hide the tears that want to flow?

But I know I’ll never let you know

That I cried over you

And all around me, falling glass

Shattered dreams, broken heart

R.I.P., there lies our “happy ending”.

 

 A/n: Merry Christmas! Sorry for writing such a dreary poem on Christmas (:P), but the perfect idea popped into my head and I couldn't resist writing this! Please tell me how it is. :D

    Vi la nieve dura, en un Septiembre no muy blanco.
    Aunque tu poema me recordó mi ilustré despedida de la persona a quien más amaba.
    Relata justo, como sucedido y cómo lo sentí.
    ¡Excelente, relato!

      ¡Estoy tan feliz de que mi poema te haya resonado! También siento mucho que hayas tenido que despedirte de un ser querido ... Las despedidas nunca son fáciles. Aún así, muchas gracias por leer y tus amables palabras.
      Lo siento si mi gramática es mala, no sé español, así que traduje mi respuesta original a través del Traductor de Google.

Sunset

via GIPHY It is 18:32. The sinking sun diffuses into the sky like orange candy on a tongue. The sun is slow, yet swift—it gracefully descends like a ballerina when you look at it, but plunges down like a dart plane when you look away. It is as if the sun feels your gaze and wants you to marvel at its glory as it puts its nightcap on. But you should know, the sun only takes a stroll around the world to light up some distant skies. When you see the sun swallowed by the horizon, you should know that it is swiftly climbing up the stairs of another sky in a far-off land you have never seen. Another girl will perch at her balcony at 18:32 to watch what you have just watched. And it will go on. via GIPHY I totally did not write purple prose there  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Did the excessive imagery enhance your reading experience, or was it a hindrance? Please tell me so that I can improve!

My Class

  My class, V-E, is a zoo, With no concrete cells, But with ringing bells, And everyone shouting "shoo". Sometimes it's like a living hell, And in unison thirty voices yell, They run and shout like monkeys minus tails, You can't "shoo" them cuz you'll fail. Other times it's just like paradise, Seems like you won the roll of dice, They'll speak so polite and act so nice, You'll forget you've come to a pack of mice. Now that's my class, Sometimes they're good as angels, Sometimes bad as ghosts, Come here, and if you're lucky, I'll be your host. Photo by  Iqwan Alif  from  Pexels

❝The Shadows Are Her Spotlight❞

Written on

She dances to the songs Of birds and trees. Not caring where her feet fall, Not caring who watches her, Not caring if she's being mocked. She dances in the shadows As the darkness holds her captive; The shadows are her spotlight. Her footsteps fall  On scattered dust. When the little black birds Will fly back to their homes By broken window ledges and vents, The cool breeze will blow the dust Into nothingness, Where her rhythm will lie forgotten. The dying roots of the trees  And the little cooing fledglings Won't remember her tomorrow. I don't know how she does it But when she dances, She dances like there's no tomorrow, Like she's frozen in her own Happily ever after. Photo by  Anthony Shkraba  from  Pexels
