How far I've come,
how far I've gone,
are two measures of time
I can't grasp, for what is time?
An illusionary clock,
attempting to grip you,
pull you in, and bring
you closer to death,
well I refuse to abide,
so where I've been
and where I'm going
collide like two erratic waves in the sea,
don't you see?
how far I've come,
and how far I've gone
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
lost in infinity,
yet your eyes take me nowhere.
the time passes slowly, as if
we don't exist.
this moment is all we have,
and I bathe in it's
beauty.
leaves of our minds
are intertwined,
lost in a toxic wasteland
for days on end,
we don't exist outside
this room.
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
In a realm where nothing is as it seems,
and the dreamer always dreams
the mystical moon is guiding
me through the doors which
once closed shut, now they are swung wide open
The forbidden fruit tastes sweet
the poison tastes like cinnamon
the vines grow downward into the roots
and the sun rises backwards
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
I dreamt of you again,
lost in deja vu
impenetrable silence hums
in my window pane, luring me into
the world I often tried to escape
there's a road which never ends
there's a light which never shines
there's a you
who is never here
I dreamt of you again,
fifth time this week
i will meet you again
when my mind drifts off to sleep
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
The new dawn is
callin my name
The tides are shifting
rollin away
, and letting me free
the karmic ties are
cutting loose
the universal lucidity
is shinin through
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
A shot of his love makes me wild,
spinning, spinning, spinning
like the unknown child
I spin, until I can't no more
coming down
, I fall to the floor
a shot of his love, it makes me wild
spinning, spinning, I can't be still
spinning out, I love the thrill
a shot of his love makes me wild,
singing his blues, like
the unseen child

storm risin'
yellow sun, dawn
of the horizon
he likes to drive
the curved roads,
I like to ride
all night

jazz, blues,
magnetic muse
by my side

is this
heaven

he likes to drive
the curved roads,
I ride all night
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
All we have
is now

become what you
are, before
they told you
whom you're
supposed to be

universal lucidity
shines thru me, and
sets my soul on fire

eyes level to the horizon
sun sets on the dawn
of our gilded love

all we have
is now
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
write your verses
speak them into
the wind
let them fly,
fly high amongst
the breeze

write your
name into
the trees
etch them in
and be free

leave your mark,
leave your woes,
embrace the day!
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
iridescent, moonlit shore
heavens wash upon us,
in a transient town
trekked through
many moons before.

While the light
in the iris dims
beneath the peak,
we let
our bodies speak.

There is a truth
we seek, and
it nears us
beyond the
curvaceous
streets ahead.
  
Mystic musings
led us here,
we lose control
and let the divinity
steer.
Samantha Cunha Jan 2020
I'm on my seventh life, darling
one more time around
the sun
maybe in
the next life,
ill get it right
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
Wether you seize the day
through the valley of truth,
or you lounge around
in shades of blue,
you lived the way
you needed to.
For when the daybreak shimmers
on through, fear not
what you do,
you lived that day
as you
needed to
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
silhouette lit up, dances heavenly
in
crimson red
words choke me slow,
the words which I never said
bound to you,
through the daybreak in blue
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
Yesterday, I dreamt
of you in the dawn
of my heart, beating
vermillion red, my hands
shaking and cold.

Today, I dream of me
my mind clear, and open
as I wash the past
from my body,
and seek the day
in all it's beauty
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
disillusioned & dizzied
by the reckless, endless nights
forlorn & seeking
a place to call home

The streets are void
of light
the highways
never end
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
the winded trails
of a forevermore transient state
of existence leaves me high
and runs me dry
the cool mind of a sunshine brimming eye
gleams towards my half lit cigarette
he sits perched high
with tidbits of wisdom
he lets them fly
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
wandering in dark, looming alleys
to escape this ephemeral existence
wander through the forrest
of my mind, the pine trees
sharp &  the past weighs heavy
on my back like stones
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
Dizzied eyes
turbulent waves
My heart is harbored
by the seaside

I long to escape
into a world of my own
where we can be alone
together

The road ahead
calls my name
theres a divided
line between my heart
and my head
between the past
and the present

I cross the threshold
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
mantra,
the vessel which
guides the boat
into the everlasting
abundance of truth

silence,
the echo
brimming sunshine
on this plane

truth,
the soul cleansed
from the white noise hums

mediation ,
the key
to unlock
the kingdom
of heaven
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
We were meant to bleed,
but not to be
vermillion scars
withering roses
beauty dies behind these sheets,
and love is lost
beyond the willow trees
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
I inhale
his
serene
scent
I miss
the musk
of
you
you wreaked
of red wine
dimming
of my shine
& rough love
divine
Samantha Cunha Apr 2020
Where the winding path
diverges, and splits into two
where the wounds and
scars open up in blinding
black and iridescent blue

this is the space
where light
comes through
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
More often
than not
the signs
will guide
you in the
wrong
direction
for life is
nothing more
than lessons
obtained
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
ever blooming
ever evolving
the sun is forevermore
the rain sparse
when heaven rains
down upon us
we shed our skin
like egyptian snakes
slithering in
the garden of evil
ever blooming
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Salty tears
drip on a night stand
of gold
for dreams of decades
past
I did sold
He was tall, rough, and
bold
I loved him more
he loved me
less
I shiver with memories
& from
the cold
Samantha Cunha Apr 2019
blood trickles
down my leg
like dripping juice
from rotten peaches

Black & blue thighs
Heavy  sighs
I didn't make a sound
Silent in the sunrise
Samantha Cunha Mar 2019
What is done in
the dark
will always
come to light
So shine on
& Shine bright
to illuminate
the dark
& disperse
fear and fright
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
born into the arms of
a starry night void,
pushed out
into the
depths of a waning moon
born for whom?
born for what?
die for you,
die for love
but born for whom?
born for what?
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
Waves roll thru
the peaks and valleys
at high tide noon

viridescent sea
calls to my shores
a call to action
for change is running me
high and dry;
leaving me to inhale
your sigh

Waves roll thru the
valley of my mind
high tide noon
the time to come
has come too soon
for change is calling my name
again, and when the West
summons, I'll wade in the
water until the waves turn blue
I no longer wait
and wait
for you
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
keep the hallway
lights on, and sing
me a song
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
Speaking kind
Words
Doesn’t mean
You have a kind
Heart
Samantha Cunha May 2019
what was not said
kills me slowly like poison
dripping from my cherry
red lips, for he bruised
my heart & my hips

My mind sails away
in a purple ship
never here, never there
violent battles,
love
or warfare
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
once again
I sat on the edge
of desire
sat much too
close
to the fire
flames
ablaze
in the blurry
haze
of lust & tumult
of the summer days
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Awoke
from a pipe
dream
divine
god speaks
through my pen
in gold speckled
shine
quench
the thirst
of these
seeking
thoughts of mine
Samantha Cunha Dec 2019
silhouette dancing in the
red, blinding lights
racing through the
city of Angels
on endless nights
the rearview mirror
lights up your electric
eyes in red, blue,
and tinges of white
in the darkness,
there are tinges of light
we melt together, like candle
wax in a realm of doom
the depths explored us,
ravaged us much too soon
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
I aimed
for heaven
yet fell
into the depths
of hell
I fell deep down
with a wicked
frown
dirt & blood
on my satin
party gown
Samantha Cunha Feb 2020
Lost in the eyes
which tread upon the heavy
gates of heavens

If I keep my gaze
level to the earth
and this plane,
I may never
reach what they call
nirvana

I'm lost in the eyes which
tread upon the heavy gates
of heaven

Tethered to his mad laughter
as it rings into the night
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
The wind blows
my happiness
away
I solemnly
wonder
why it can not stay
like grasping onto
a fleeting feeling
I realize
it's always
leaving
Samantha Cunha Dec 2018
be weary of
those whom  
speak kind words
yet
have cold hearts
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
The god in me
sees the god
in you
divine beings
with golden
minds
which drift
into the ethers
from time
to time
Samantha Cunha Nov 2019
The rain amidst my window pane
there's a storm brewing within
my heavy eyes reflect upon
a moment lost
within some sort
of world of another,
a dream of another
what was never truly can be
what wasn't shall not,
for it was as it needed
Samantha Cunha Mar 2020
shape shifting
in the midst
of the crowded streets
I feel the energy around
I drink it up
like cherry lemonade
it's all within me
without me
above me
below me
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
Any road
will take you there
when the destination
is unknown
but the yearning
burning
for freedom
exists
within
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
All it was
is all it
could have been
endless
realms
of possibility
cease to
truly exist
Samantha Cunha Dec 2018
Casting spells
ringing church bells
boots of leather & diamond shells

A stable
mind
may lack
the gold
mine
of inspiration
that
the
madness
dervives
from
Samantha Cunha Dec 2018
His
moods
eradicate
my peaceful nature
shift so greatly
Like the moon
Waxing and Waning
Ever-changing
Never stable
I am not able
To keep up
pick me up
spin me around
Shortly after
I hit the ground
bruise my ego
bruise my Face
I can’t keep up with
Your moods
pace
Samantha Cunha Jan 2019
I'm looking
back
while
facing
forward
it's all
so clear
as it
drifts
away
fogged up
mirror
clearer
visions
Samantha Cunha Nov 2018
Let me be
your messy muse
I’ll light the
inspirational fire
then
let the fuse
burn bright
& fast
while
knowing
we shall not
last
Can't slow down
Driving quite fast

The joy
& the disdain
of being so young
The love
& the pain
Has yet to come
Samantha Cunha Feb 2019
If it comes
let it
if it goes
bid it goodbye
if it flows
follow the current
if it slows
be careful
not to drown
