Roll Over
Mya May 2017
The emptiness of nothingness
Cannot be fathomed
Until the moment you become
Used up
And worthless
Mya Dec 2018
Let your heart rest easy
In the tender arms of moonlight
You'll be alright
At least for now
Mya Sep 2018
I see you crying
Counting every tear as it rolls down
and pools in the dirt

You say all these words
None of them string into a sentence
That I haven't already heard

Trembling-
your voice isn't the only thing shaking
But I'll say it anyway

It's true, crocodiles produce tears.
They can actually cry.


You looked at me confused.
Would you have given me
the same look
if you knew what I would say next?

But the tears aren't formed from remorse
or sadness
They're formed simply to clean out their eyes.
So as I watch you, I'm questioning,
How many crocodile tears your shedding now
-here, for me?


---
How many of these wasted tears were made just as an attempt to wash the guilt from your sight?

rain
Mya Jan 2015
It was raining. It always rained. But only on me. Only in my mind and before my eyes and from my eyes. I saw the rain, I made the rain, and I drown in the rain. I was the rain.
And she was the sun. She came to dry the rain and save everyone else. Some days she would help me– but most days she killed me. I begged and pleaded for her to die. I wished she would burn out. I never asked to be destroyed.
But it would stop me. And I would think...maybe being consumed by her wouldnt be a bad thing. I wouldn’t freeze to death. I would go out in flames– swallowed whole by the warmth. I– in some way– craved that warmth as I let it burn me. Destory me.
She would always say stupid things to me.
The worst of things.
She would say “Please smile, even if you have to fake it into being real.”
I didn’t need her help. But I would smile. My mouth would move before I had asked it to. It would make me fear the future. Fear the realm of that I could not control. But I did foresee the rain from fear; And so it rained.
Being the sun, she would see the flood. She would feel it cooling down the earth and suffocating the others who dwell here. And to me she would come. She would wrap me in her warmth and  say:
“Don’t feel this way.
Don’t care what others think of you–
because what they think means nothing.
At the end of the day only you will be with you.
So be happy to be happy.”
I would lash at the sun and tell her to leave me. I would douse her in the liquid ice of my soul and shun her from the sky. I didn’t need to care what others thought, and I didn’t anyway. I needed myself? No. I didn’t need myself, I just needed to breath. I could do away with my mirror-shattering face or my less than dirt personality and be who I am– as long as I breathed. As long as I kept my head above water.
But I didn’t.
I felt most comfortable where my feet could touch the ground. I felt most comfortable at the bottom where it was safe– where it was familiar. I felt most comfortable surrounded by the chilled product of my head. Under the water is where I belonged.
But then she came.
Her heat would take away my blanket of depth. Her rays would strip away at me until I burned. Until I ached. Until my body had no choice but to be consumed by the flames. Engulfed in something that I didn’t– and couldn’t, nor would I ever– understand. I let the light lavish me in the light. I let my heart be torn apart by the searing blood which flowed through it. I was exposed. I was out in the open being burned by the sun– and I didn’t mind.
I almost felt guilty. I was the only part most admired by her. In all her beauty she found me loathing in my filth– yet she stayed. In the damp marsh I flourished in, she would stay. She added the missing part to life– the heat, the light. She let things grow; the same things that I would have killed. I didn’t mind the new life– in that moment.
I found things didn’t live long without the sun. They died in my hands. They went out with laughter and names. And so, once more, it rained. But it poured. It didn’t stop. One flood after another until it was all over. The water flooded the land trying to reach the sky. And the water turned red but it kept pouring and flooding and drowning everything out it kept going knowing-hoping the sun wouldn’t return.
And she didn’t.
And so it rained.
And she didn’t come.
It poured.
It flooded.
The sun burned out.
She was no more.
The sun, the very light and warmth in everything, burned out. The note said:
“It’s not fair that I burn to light everyone, when no one burned for me.”
And so it rained in the darkness.

Like No Other

My greatest enemy-
      Has always been myself

No other demon could-
      Smile so sweetly

Not even the Devil would-
      Laugh so openly

Cold
Mya Feb 2015
And here I thought you were the snow
The cold, the slick, and the iced over
But I guess for once I was wrong
You were far from the snow
You were the warmth
The heat in everything high and low
And here I thought you were the snow

And into the abyss it went
Everything
Mya Jul 2017
My soul will wait in the shadows until the day it can see your light next
A chariot of grace and comfort will bring me back to you
My heart will ache each day you are gone
Until it may once more collide with yours and light the world on fire
If there was one thing I could say to you it would be as follows

You
Are more than I will ever be
You are the forest which gives my lungs the air to breathe
All of the earth congregates to you for your wisdom and strength to keep growing
Life comes to you for guidance and solace

Me To You
I want to keep you grounded
Never to hold you back, but to always show you where your heart would be welcome
I want to be the source of your life and nourishment
To keep you alive and well so your trees may prosper
Love me with with all of you, and together we, may make something beautiful.

Coming Down
Mya Mar 2015
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna land
If being in the clouds
Gets me away from you
Why would I ever
Come back down?

With Words
Mya Oct 2014
Oh if I only had the words to say. The words to use so you would stay. I love you and I know that feeling will never stray. Can’t you just take a moment to look into my eyes and see the grey? I need you in my life, I need you be here to sleep with me.
I need your warm arms to hold me close during the dark and late nights. I need you for all the times the storm clouds roll in . I need your love to be with me always. I need your body and your soul. Please stay with me. Don’t go, and don't fret.
Mya Jun 2018
It's a pity
That my lovely hopeless heart
is eternally
Dammed
To a sinful and wondering
Body
My flesh enjoys the lust.

Under the Water
Mya Feb 2015
Only after you stop breathing does drowning get easier
The body stops writhing
The lungs stop gasping
And the heart, she stops beating

The water carries away the empty cage
But the soul will go on
It will continue to undulate through the water

Living will be harder
But existing will become easier...
....once you stop breathing
Mya Dec 2016
Pin me down against the silky bed
Forever keep me locked inside this place
The rhythm of your name within my head
I want to feel the passion in your grace

Sing to me such sweet nothings of the heart
We wait for morning light to take us there
Lie to me- say we'll never fall apart
The way we love, they say it isn't fair

The mighty dawn approaches hold me near
In the cold you're the heat I want to find
Wipe away all the hardships and the fear
Maybe the two of us are intertwined

****** my heart and make me feel so funny
In your heart forever as your Bunny

The Shoppe
Mya Jul 2015
I've never felt more than the feeling of nothing
Actively feel less
While internally feeling more

You feel the words
The rejection and lies
You get a feel for the
cold
dense
steel
With horrid words engraved
Stabbing into your soul
Piercing right through your entire being

It's in the nothing that one can be everything
When you’re not held by the bounds of simple words
Or of simple beings, you’re left open to feel
Which also leaves you for solitude

Star Gazing
Mya Dec 2016
I have never touched a god before
If I ever did, though, it would've been him
I could always see the constellations in his eyes
Not to mention the eternal flame in his soul
I should have known from his scent what he was
Sweet yet powerful all at once
A smell which brings tears of grace to the eye

I have never been touched by a god before
If I ever was- it would have been him
His fingers were strong but never hurt me
He put the light back into my heart
And with each graceful sweep of his glance
He rid me of my insecurities
My eyes began to shine like the stars in his

Together we stay above the sky
Watching the jealous stars below

Mirror Terror

Watching my clothes
Drip from my skin
and slide down my bones
I realize the starvation
has worked too well
So now,
just how long
do I have left
before my face doesn't fit either?

Society
Mya Feb 2015
You tell me what to be
Then become angry with what I Am
With who you made Me

Your mouth spews harsh criticism
Your words set fire to the originality
You make dark from the light

Don't blame how I Am on Me
Blame it on You
After all, it's all your fault

Too Much Can Kill
Mya Jun 2017
He could always read me like a book
So it's no surprise
That he could see the lies
Or pain in my eyes
When I tell him were fine
He doesn't know you
You'd never want him to
But he still holds some of my love
Which when you think
Makes you weak
Because not only you can
Sweep me off my feet
But you are
The only one
I want indefinatly

The Missing

Under the Blue
Mya Jan 2017
Where the sky melts
Time has no value
The water flows backwards
Where?
No one knows
None have come back from such a place

Blood runs clear
Tears turn to gold
Darkness itself has no where to hide in this space
Stillness replaces air
Cries are the only records to play- while sorrows sound off
No others return from such a place
None but you
Not quite yours but I was inspired

Ash to Flower
Mya Jan 2018
I let the embers turn to Ash
I'm letting you go
As I believe you've long since done to me
You destroyed most in your path
But I've found the Vallie
Nascent and lovely
Her joy for me sings with grace
In the silent moonlight I can hear her calling
I could only ever hear your flames raging
and burning
I'm finally ready to heal
and I'm going to let it be by her fields

Deep Blue
Mya May 2018
The only thing worthy of release
Is the air from my lungs
As it wades through the water
Crashing up to the surface
Gaining the freedom
I so desperately crave
While I remain below the sky's reflectant
Mya Mar 2017
The night air was cold
Spring was in bloom
So were those rising emotions
The only warmth in the earth around us
Was coming from us
Little lightning bugs mocking the stars above
Teasing them for our amusement
The world was singing in moonlight
All for you, maybe, for us
In that pale blue
We were simply Spring with the rest of the world

Sonnet for Him
Mya Mar 2016
I trust in you alone to comfort me
Although the sky above seems awful grey
You are the light that often lets me see
The happiness in you takes pain away

The power behind your eyes makes me fly
In your warm embrace I can feel the light
I know without you I would surely die
Forever hold me tight into this night

Unfortunately, I am endless dark
From out of nowhere seen you one day came
My cold hands feel for you and find the spark
Now my darkness can never be the same

I very much love the way that we collide
Just promise me that you won't leave my side
280 · Dec 2016
What we do for...
Mya Dec 2016
If he is a sin
Then I am a sinner
Ready to let the flames devour my tainted flesh
To rip away all impurities given to me
During the fastest closed-door sessions  
Each beat of his heart adding moments of endless torment
But I will gladly endure the pain
To trade it all for his pleasure
Ever waiting to be thrown once more
Pressed down into the sheets of lust
The oxygen leaving my lungs to be refilled with pain from the palm
Pain which stings so innocently
I know that if I look into that soul
Down deep into the darkest depths
There is where I serve my sentence
Love

The Heart of Hers

HER warmth and color lighting the room
HEART after heart fell in love with the image
SHE never noticed them though for she
WAS in her head too much and with
DEAD eyes she judged them for watching her

Maybe he took too much
More than he deserved
Little gaps in my heart
Filled for just the tiniest moments

All the loniness
Maybe then replace it,
Even by no fault of his own,
With the emptiness

Trying to write this to you now is nearly impossible.
The pen becomes so heavy in my hand it makes my fingers ache.
Every word etched into the paper
feels like another bout of blasphemy nailed to our hearts.
If only love was as easy as faking smiles in passing glances.

Princess,
Never let them fall
Tears are saved for boys
Who will wipe then away.
Princess,
These are not those boys
He is not the prince you read about
Or the hero you dreamed of
Count the stars again
Princess,
Hold your head up
This is the bed you made
Time to ***** your finger
And keep still
This chapter will send soon

The Soul of Midnight
Mya Jan 2016
Knock knock. Who is that, standing at my door?
It’s me, it’s me! See what I have for you?
Dear, my dear such little girl, you look poor
Come, let me in, so I can show you, too.

I let this woman in, but who was she?
Her eyes, ice like the horrid, cold, dark night
Soon I knew I was looking right at me,
so then the dark became my newest light

Unbearable is now the dying one.
It’s me, it’s me! Oh what have I now seen?
My dear, My dear, I am the fleeting sun.
With pain inside… I must now be a queen.

Throughout the night, I find my soulful peace,
which makes the brightest lights forever cease.
A Sonnet

Lackluster Lulliby
Mya Nov 2017
Her hands melted right into mine
The perfect fit, one of a kind
I was gifted the words in which to speak
The flavored sentences to make her weak
Too perfect to exist, God had made her
Lust had consumed me, Satan her sender
But lust had to be my least worry
When my heart departed in a hurry
It leaped right into her sweet soft eyes
Without any warrant or comprimise
When the hell will I come to realize
My heart wishes for my own demise
But yet another chance I give, to my own
Surprise

And then they did it. They lept into the never ending darkness.
The abyss consumed them, all of them. Not a single soul was spared that night.
And in this darkness they saw.
They saw the horror and terror. They saw Death and they saw the Dark.
It was then they knew evil.

My Truth
Mya Jan 2018
The crimson liquid rolling
Rushing
Down your back and from your spine
Gushing
I see the blade you tried to hide
Thinking she was on your side

Its began to dry
-the vital sap
With her gone-
you've no handicap

But you left the blade embedded
Seems to her you're still debted
Yet you know you owe her not
For with her hands she gave you naught

With heavy heart I try to save
All along you've been so brave
Leave her be
-and come to me
My truth shall set you free
Was she ever really there?
Mya Jun 2017
Listen
Very close
It's rare the truth comes out
During the light of day
Or whispered in the shadows of night
So I beg you, listen
Look not at the clock,
But to your heart
Right now
Yes, this instant.

In this moment
You
Are
Perfect
You in this moment
Right now
Are exactly how you are supposed to be
All is happening how it should

Take comfort in knowing the world will turn
Now and forever
Always as it has
Even when you're not looking

So breathe easy
Rest soundly
You
Are perfect
Right now in this moment
Exactly how you're meant to be
Just some wisdom I was given that I wish to pass on. All souls are perfect and deserve love. I have so much to give, so I hope you all take a little. Like my tiny gift to you.
Mya Mar 2018
I ran across our messages today
****- reading your name haunts me
Seeing the image of your face
Shatters my heart
Knowing I loved you completely
As you waited to tear me apart
If only forgetting you was for me
As was as killing me was for you
