What I Should Have Done
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
I’ve finished my test now
but i don’t want to see
I know my grades have dropped
I have no-one to blame but me

I guess I should have studied more
or memorized each fact
Maybe if I’d skipped my chores
I’d have known each exact

Now I can only mope
I should have gotten a better grade
I shouldn’t let this dash my hopes
Look at these mistakes i’ve made

You say you’re horrible
You say there’s nothing left
But I know there is hope left in you
I know there is a love for something in life left
Anything at all
There has to be

You put yourself down all the time
I can’t help but be furious
How dare you get that idea into your head
The idea that you are anything less than perfect
Because, in fact, you are amazing

Strong, Maybe
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
A new dance,
A fretful prance,
The lion celebrates her change.

No more fears,
No whispers in her ears,
No more nightmares to devour the real her.

She is the real her.
Soon you'll know.
Just wait.

Sleep, Dear.
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
Farewell*, little daydreamer. Your time has passed. It is time to grow. An adventure awaits in the cruel reality. One much too harsh for the likes of you. So much to learn. You will one day know the love you want to yours;f. I, the curious lion, will bring you the joy you so wish for. Goodbye, old friend. I'm sure I will see you again.
Oh dear, oh dear,
Little little lion, a storm is coming, even you don't know. You will scream. Crushed.

This Was A Mistake
Astra Zenneth Nov 2016
I tried to get over you
Now I want to be over this
I tried to meet new people
But the people make me sick
I don’t want to love another
I’d prefer not to love at all
They say there is no trouble
Right before the fall

Poems from the same idea
Astra Zenneth Nov 2016
He says he'll change
and I can only guess
that all his love went down the drain
He'll never tell what happened
and I have only to think
that all his trust has been abandoned
I try to explain
I try to say I'm sorry
but all he can say is that it's his blame

Today he says he's changed
I say I've changed too
All his trust went down the drain
So now my happiness has too
They were no good for him. I should have known.

Reasons
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
I try to leave this trap you've caught me in
I know it's all in my head
but still your teeth sink in

You blame me for the **** you've put me through
I thought about my pain
It all leads back to you

You think it's my fault if I hold your words true
Then why do you always tell me
things I already knew

If all you do is reject and insult
How else am I to react
I see now this is the only result

I can only hurt from things that you've done
It never ends, I must end it
I hope you've had fun
It's over!

One day, Curious Lion will be Great Lion.
She just knows it.
A storm, a storm, a flood.
You are not ready.

Me, after
Astra Zenneth Sep 2017
My form is changing
I can't tell what it is
Its bubbling, twisting, churning, shaping
Indistinguishable I can't tell what it is
You ripped away my face now
You stole my identity
I thought I was happy
What the **** did you do to me?
I don't exist I'm a blur
I don't know but it hurts
I can't take it, I can't ******* do this
How could you think to put me through this?
What is my name? Do I have a face?
It burns! I just want to leave this place
My skin peels off and grows again
or melts off every now and then
I can't tell what it is. I can't tell what I am
It burns! I'm changing again and again
It happens so fast, I'm not even real
I've been torn apart, I don't think I can heal
Give me the pills, I want to step off the sill
or rock back and forth until everything's still.
My face is rotting, in no way alive
You left me, how did you think I'd survive
Gotta just do it, I won't revive
take a step back, leap into the dive
Face towards the concrete
Can't eat, Can't sleep
Falling forever, this is the end
I lied to you, I don't want to be friends!
I have to forget you, Get out of my head!
God you make me wish I was dead
You stole my identity, I'm not part of whole
I'll never get over this 'til you return what you stole
You know what it is, right out of my chest
Some might be gone now, but give back the rest
You're burning me down How can't you see!
What this is-


It's just not me.

Why Do I Love You?
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
Wish you were nothing
wish i was dead
I can’t wait
to live again

can’t help me right now
I just need to spend
another moment
alone in my head

Wish you would love me
Wish you’d forget
That i am nothing
Leave me instead

Please don’t waste it
your precious time
Im not worth the suffering
Not yours or mine

Why So Cruel?
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
I said that I love you
Surely that's enough
I'm nothing but nice
And still you're so rough

I'm trying to change
It's all just for you
Still you hate me
Why so cruel?

I try so hard
I just want to please you
Still you hurt me
I wish you knew

I'm so blind
I guess I'm a fool
I've fallen so hard
**Why so cruel?
Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you Why do i love you

In My Dreams
Astra Zenneth Oct 2016
I'm as pretty as a bird,
and as tall as a tree,
if that’s what i want.
And you can't tie me down,
because I'll always leave.

Im as fast as a hummingbird,
and rugged as a stray,
if that’s what I please.
You can clip my wings,
I'll still fly away.
I wish, I wish, I wish.
