In the darkness

They say don't stay in the dark too long

But I tell them 

It's my finest work

So use to pain 

The numbness from rejections

When every inch it's a win 

Fuck gaining a follower

I want to see my kids win

Here 

"Step into your own footprints"

No matter the obstacles 

We overcome

Forget the days of being po

We go for the score 

Even when they move the goal post

Move different

Sometimes I am distant

Be careful

when you play in the dark

Miserable people love to pull you deeper

While you trying

Shed off “survivor mode”

Read the WORLD

Bitterness is in the aroma

Hate seeing happiness

Even if its in the BLACK VOID

So I levitate

Stay within my circle

Even when we celebrate

It Goes Without Saying

invisibility makes you behave

ravenously anything and

everything to be seen

genuinely understood and

received until

eventually you lose yourself chasing

the impossible

you'll swallow pride in hopes

of not having squandered

unconditional love

Poetry Reluctancy

I don't even want to write anymore because everything

always comes back to him

I try to steer

clear

of that genre

and I hate

that I always end up here

producing

lines that fixate

on heart ache

as if I want to be reducing

my art to this

emotional roller coaster drama

I don't even want to write anymore

because it always circulates

around the debilitating

weight

of loving someone who can not reciprocate

someone who is incapable of love

or at least

incapable of loving me

I pick up a pen

to do anything

but think of him

and yet

it quickly

becomes just that

tear stained pages

with eloquently

worded phrases

that simply decorate

my suffering

Written down

are all the things I could never say

aloud

to him

or anyone

wasted ink

on crumbled pages

he infects every piece

I write

contagious

Foolishness

Fantasies of us were dangerous

overpowering my logic, an

oasis calling

laborous on a regular basis

it's strange, this urge to persist

searching for something that doesn't exist

hazardous pattern, overactive imagination

never worth the credit I gave it

evidently, my interest in you

seems to be what made you interesting

succinct

Delusional

I've never displayed such patience

as I have with you, let's face it, I put

myself on standby

and realized I was

doomed to

exist in this

loveless blurry

unfortunate

state of purgatory like

I'm stuck on wait between your

omnipotent imprisonment and

narcissistic complex I'm

all fucked up

love Stockholm syndrome

I've been so

dumb- a voluntary hostage

I know it's a coping mechanism

overcompensation for the emptiness

that comes with the lack of reciprocation

Nana's Poetry Nana's Poetry

Masochistic

maybe I do this on purpose

as a feat of

strength like a challenge

or perhaps it builds

character, I refuse to admit

how it's an excuse, sad truth

is I love it

suffering suffuse

the worse it hurts, the more fulfilling

I'm aware I have issues because I

choose this willingly

Miss Brown Eyes

The way you look at me

it’s a feeling

Her eyes reflect the earth’s own crown.
Like caramel kissed by morning light,
They hold the day; they hold the night.
Soft amber pools where secrets lie,
A quiet strength that won't deny.
Through storms and calm, through joy and sighs,
The world transforms in brown-eyed skies.
No need for stars to light her face,
Her gaze, a calm and steady place.
A window to a boundless sea,
Where love and mystery both roam free.

Last SUMMER

Last summer without my true love felt like an endless stretch of quiet afternoons and hollow sunsets. The absence of their presence made every familiar place seem distant, as if the colors had faded and the air lacked warmth. Routine moments and the laughter that used to fill the days was replaced by a persistent ache. Despite the heat of the season, a lingering chill settled deep inside, reminding me that some spaces are only truly alive when filled with the person you hold dear.

Dedicate this to you:

Golden rays caress the skin,
Warmth that melts the world within,
Laughter floats on balmy air,
Secrets whispered everywhere.
Sandy beaches, tangled toes,
Sunset paints in fiery glows,
Hands entwined, hearts beat in time,
Summer love, a fleeting rhyme.
Fireflies dance in twilight's hush,
Twinkling stars in passion’s rush,
Moments caught in endless sun,
Two souls merge and become one.
But summer fades to autumn’s shade,
Yet in the heart, that love won’t fade,
A season’s flame, both bright and true,
Forever summer, me and you.

“Sweet Baby Blue”

My Sweet Baby Blue

How could I ever give up on you

Not quite where others expect me to be

Seem to be

Giving up on me

Putting my dreams on the back burner

As if I could never return

As if this redirection isn’t a blessing but a burn

A burn to my hopes and wishes

How could I ever give that up

For something so small that could be taken away

Could always have another,

Sweet Baby Blue

But dreams don’t last forever

No, not like you do

In my mind

Or in my life

Which one would I rather choose

To hold my Sweet Baby Blue in my mind

Or hold my Sweet Baby Blue in my arms

A decision that has me askew

So I care for your maker

Seems like my first true love, again

How quickly Blue came to

Makes me wonder, Do I really know you

Give you all my heart

Like everything depended on it

Me, you, Blue

Everything depended on it

But in the end it feels like it’s all for nothing

Except Sweet Baby Blue

Because even though I can’t have your maker

I’ll never stop loving you

My Sweet Baby Blue

I can imagine your smile

How sweet and innocently so

How your laugh will echo through my heart

Like a cave with never ending songs

My Sweet Baby Blue

I can’t wait to hold you close

Smell your scent that says I’m finally here

As you bring me tears of joy

YOU.ME.ours

You ever meet a person

who can see into your soul?

Who knows when your mind is racing and when you start to lose control

Who by looking into your eyes makes you feel at ease

Who doesn't say a word yet reminds you to just breathe

Who recognizes your anxieties

all your highs and lows

Someone who just gets you and

through their eyes it shows

Who's touch calms your body

Whos smile calms your soul

Whos words calm your heart

And it gives you back

Dior & Purple Haze

She spoke.

"Hug me until I smell like you. Love me till I smell like you. I'm not washing my shirt in the next cycle."

Dior & weed.

Hold my hand

Let’s be FREE

It’s time to FLEE

Match my aesthetic

save me from the “real world”

Be my medic.

Looking forward to

sunrises & sun sets

smoking with the sunroof open

Make the sky purple

Keep my shirt just for the fragrance

They say happiness comes from the inside. But your cup spills into my soul. So anytime you whisper “LOVEYOU” it can be so overwhelming. Lay your head on my shoulder while I puff. The smell of weed doesn’t bother. Especially when the cologne has you hypnotize. People are scared to be themselves. Scared to take the leap. Fuck them when they criticize. Let them die on that hill. See misery is difficult especially when it’s time to swallow that pill.

Nights under a different moon

The whole village is sleep. We are awake. Champagne breaths. Music at the lowest decimal. Discussing the music choice while we break from sex. 4am giggles. Can’t keep our lips off each other. Nights like this makes life worth living. When I look at you, I’m under your spell. Our path crosses once more. We want the same thing. EACH OTHER.

Even when I turn to sand, I will find you.

Wrote this meditating. Thinking of YOU.

Worlds Apart

Inspired by “Space Wolves”

While I pack up

I wonder what drove you so far

From me

We been searching our whole lives for

Fire

To keep us warm at night

No smoke signal, but

My heart is telling me you need me

While danger looms

This world or the other

Make the enemies disappear

Cover your eyes

I don’t want you to see

How ugly I can get

Look beyond the battle scars

Rocket fuel is full

Ill travel anywhere

Doesn’t matter how far

As long we have us

we can wake up

to a different star

Peace & Love

February smiles

Every time I think of you, I smile

Miss you

soon you drive off

love when we hug

we smell like each other

Don’t ever want to go back to strangers

stuck on what if’s

How can we move on

when we kiss our lips lock

Damn

I just want to make you laugh

Time is flying

Hurry back

Valentines’ day approaching

You deserve roses

but Orchids for the rest of your life

Hope when you read this

your heart warms up during the cold front

Read this every cold month

PEACE & LOVE

Purple SOULS

Nights like these

We stroll through traffic

while you pour into my cup

I pour into yours

Some paths lead to the UNTHINKABLE

LIFE is better when there is no care

The way the world is rotting

There is no time to spare

It took me FOREVER

To work up

my courage to live for myself

I know my PURPLE

Is what you need

Inhale

Exhale VIOLET

On this one

I’m alone

The skies are dark

one thing I can do

I can find the light

stare at the star

with the coolest shades

They say

“Victory favors the brave”

imagine that

just a leap of faith

Your world would change

They called me crazy

But to me

staying ordinary is insane

M.i.A

We deserve this

Don’t feel guilty because YOU feel completed

Got more to come

Its ok to FLY

Keep winning

Eventually the truth will be revealed

your LOVE is worthy

Fuck ANYONE who makes you question yourself

See

You build yourself to this MONSTER

Now they want to control you

But

They didn’t believe

Now they want to reap the benefits

Fade into Purple HAZE

You had your shot. NOW live in regret. Don’t wonder what happened. You made your choice. You won’t see me, but you will hear about me. They whisper about me while they watch me through their blind eyes. Trying to find me in them. SUCKA. Good luck.

Peace & Love
