Just a song
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
You know you're hurt when
a song turns on and you change it
Because it reminds you of them.
369 · May 2016
Good old America
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
It seems like the majority of your opinions either come from Tumblr or an intoxicated man's rant at a Truck Stop restaurant south of Alabama! Who knows?

Indestructable
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
If you ruin me
I will just build myself back up
sorry it took you a while for you to see

Striking

You have me head over heels
To the heart which you appeal

Roaming soul
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2017
I'm a ghost
Unlike most, I have flesh and bones.
Alive and breathing but a roaming soul.
Trapped in darkness looking for the light that shines, only for a short period of time.
When I think I have all, I end up with none.
A never ending treadmill through hell until I find happiness again. Unsure if this metaphorical death is a curse or a problem leading to a solution of mine but the heavy bags on my back tell me I need to try. I cannot cry because it's embarrassing, I cannot scream because my mouth is taped by consequences. Stuck in hell with no fire but the burns of selfishness and torment from those who sent me here.

Never faded
Chloe Zafonte May 2017
The world turns to gray as dearest memories never fade away.

Adaption issues
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2017
Sitting here staring into the sun, reminiscing about the days where life felt a little more at ease. About how all is changing, how I have grown into a woman with her own life as I mentally say goodbye to peace of mind.
I'm moving in a week and I was forced to put my dogs in a foster home. while I'm currently in college working my *** off. This is how I'm feeling.

Opening my eyes
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
Restless nights are coming to an end, thoughts of you slowly fade, becoming me once again as I buid myself to become the person I intend.
359 · Jun 2017
Trapped
Chloe Zafonte Jun 2017
I can be set free and they will still manage to try and wrap a chain around my ankle. This is how it feels to be surrounded by people who frown upon your existence and have no faith in you.

Thoughts of every day life
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
Thoughts roll through my head like an old tape, I have to breath deeply for my own sake. I think back to last year when I was content and thought things were going fine, now coming to know I wasted all my time. I dread writing these things, there's a possibility you'll read,
I shouldn't give you the benefit
because I know you thirst to see me bleed. They all say in time it will fade, but one can only hope, with the walls around myself I made there must be a way to cope.

Selfish
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
There are girls who are restricted from getting an education, married by the age of 6 to elderly men. Girls who have been violated as there ****** roams free, killed before or after they are born or left in garbage dumps to die for being female! And all you are worried about is a higher pay rate and how men look at you on the street. That is not fighting for equality, it is greed and corruption that does not bother to look at the world outside of where you stand as you pick on others and avoid the helpless.
Feminist do help with these issues the actual decent feminist movements. We should fight against **** for both genders for the most part and help the women in foreign countries that actually need saving instead of putting down men and knit picking at easily solved problems.

Honestly
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
They say I should miss you ,that I quickly moved on as I wake up every morning rejoicing that you're gone.

Maybelle
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2016
Her name was Maybelle Brown. She fell in the lake one morning and drown. Every night they hear her retchid sounds. She screams and screams, a demon she has been deemed. She stares back at you with a porcelain face and bright blue eyes, lurks in the mist with no blue skies, cry and find her as you hear her cries. Dead since eighteen eighty five not one soul in the lake has been found alive.
Will you join me for a dive?
Just something I made up

Inked inside me
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Your memories are the tattoos inked inside of me, no matter how much I want them removed, burning them off will hurt even more than the pain of having them .
353 · Dec 2015
That one song
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Every time that song plays
Your face enters my mind
Reminding me of the summer days
Before I realized I was blind

Pregnancy in a poem
Chloe Zafonte Jul 2017
Drowsy all the time, my breast feel as if they have been punched, after my nap I'm going to consume my third lunch. People asking why aren't I married? Or what will I name this child I carry. Some frown upon me, most jump with glee, they're so lucky that they do not get up 5 times a night just to ***. I lay in my bed with mild cramps in my tummy, craving everything down to mayo and cheese yummy! Friends and family get annoyed with my hormones because I like to **** and moan. I constantly drink because my throat is dry as they ask me " how did you let this happen and why?" The answer to the question is that I am responsible for what I've done and there is no reason for me to cover it up and run.
352 · May 2016
You're not in love
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
The only reason someone wakes up one morning and misses their ex is because the new person walked out of their life and they're lonely.
The reason you bounce back to your ex is because you're lonely, the reason he or she bounces back to you is because they ran out of options. Can't you all depend on yourselves?

Disabilities
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2016
You'll get insults to infinity, I cannot judge because you do not know. Incase you do gain some dignity. I've learned to make it fun although the consequences is being shunned. No one wanted a "special" child like me but without your help I've learned to explore confidence like the seven seas.
There are pages about me that you have not read but if you walked in my small shoes you'd probably be dead. Yes I'm very  quite but in reality my imagination is on auto pilot. I'm tuning out the harsh thoughts I can read from your face, the body language that shouts "disgrace" you think I will never succeed but money, traveling, a job and marriage isn't the issue you've already lost because of your greed. You say that there are things that I cannot do but why should I give up my dreams and my life because of a sour soul like you?
Chloe Zafonte Aug 2018
I feel stupid for writing this, but I'll go ahead and take the risk. Airplanes that go by reminds me of when we watched them near the airport last July. Grocery shopping in the local store knowing that you won't hug me from behind anymore, sitting in the back of the cab on the way home, the sights we use to roam. The stuffed dragon that sits on my shelf, God I need some help! As well as the early morning sky when the moon shined, because you'd always pick me up at that at time. Most importantly a little baby boy who shares your face and has a loud voice, but what would you know? You've made your own choice. Above all I wish I could get you off my mind if you would be so kind.

Letter to you.
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2020
I spent three years with you now you will spend an eternity in the sky. You were my first boyfriend and will now be my first funeral. It seems like yesterday that we were children hiding in my father's garden now we're all grown up and you have passed on.

It's hard for me to imagine that someone I once held the hand of is now lying lifeless in a morgue somewhere until you can be burried or cremated. I know that we went our separate ways years ago and I did not speak to you after being in a bitter state but I wished you the best in life.

But as of now I hope you are doing well in the afterlife and reuniting with those you lost and find comfort there.

R.IP Nehemiah, I'm sorry the way things ended between us.
My ex boyfriend from many years ago passed away last week by suicide. They found his body on Saturday evening, receiving the news from his mother. I haven't seen or spoken to him in eight years but I can't help but feel a loss. I have never experienced the death of someone I was once close to so I'm still processing this one day at a time.
351 · May 2016
Sorry honey
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
Just because I disagree with you doesn't make me ugly. It means that you have no better comeback and I'm most likely right as it is.

Today's world
Chloe Zafonte Jun 2016
Nowadays all these people act like middle schoolers who whine and cry to the world about how no one loves and accepts them and want revenge on their grade school bullies.

Painful truth
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2017
Being a bully in today's world is not someone who harasses you. It is those who tell the truth. Our generation is so coddled, preventing people from being hurt. Surrounding yourself with fake friends while your parents are too scared to say anything as well. Living in your own world is all fun and games, until someone comes along and is honest. Then it falls apart. Facts do not vanish when your emotions are on display.
350 · Dec 2016
Too afraid
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2016
You step outside every day with the possibility of being murdered. You eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with the possibility of you choking, drive your car with the possibility of you crashing. You take risk every day yet you're too scared to fall in love.

Vivid memories
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I vividly remember you calling me
late at night last winter
You would say "I missed you so much",
in a tired voice I'd respond "I missed you too"
one year later I'm lying here,
my heart hurts with the pain of an deep in splinter
because I gave my soul to you
347 · Apr 2016
Oxygen
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2016
Some think that they fill your lungs with air.
Just to watch you breathe out  misery and despair.
People think that you can't live without them even if they make you miserable.
347 · Feb 2016
To be honest
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
I'm don't mind being alone, I've embraced just about everything I have feared in life and to be honest, I'm not afraid of anything anymore.
346 · Dec 2015
My own silence
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Just because I don't talk about how I feel  
Does not mean I don't care
There's a lot more behind this solid blank stare
I have what you call resting ***** face
344 · Dec 2015
Of all I've done
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
After all I've done
This is how you repay?
By doing the one thing to make
Me go away?
It sinks in, hurting more and more
Each day
343 · Jan 2016
I like me
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
I don't care if someone is prettier, smarter wittier or works harder. Don't compare me to other people and try and lower my self esteem.
If you're going to insult me don't be in my life
343 · Feb 2016
After all
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
You begged and pleaded to give you a chance
but you stomped on my feet once we started to dance.
Translation: I  gave someone a chance and he ****** it up deliberately once he had it
340 · May 2016
Stop
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
Stop expecting a prince charming out of your partner then get suspicious if he actually acts like he's everything you've dreamed of, nag, then wonder why you've become extremely lonely and sad.
340 · Feb 2016
What's really the issue
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
I'll tell you what's  messed up!
People raise their kids to be monsters and send them out into society to bring misery to others and no one bats an eye to what could be going wrong. Apparently depression just hormones when we have our reasons, kids are filled with anxiety and all their told to do is drink water and get a good night sleep. They cry to their parents and they have the line "get over it" thrown at them and they wonder why their child never speaks to them. We live in a world where we're told that betraying each other is ok while everyone has hard time finding love. Girls are changing every detail to impress a boy who doesn't even exist to them, boys are being told that their emotions are weak. They say to be strong when strength is something you build over time not something given.
340 · May 2016
Self approval
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
Maybe you're not the most talented person or someone who will rule the world. But it's better to be proud of yourself than to look for approval of others who may not even recognize your potential.
340 · May 2016
Control
Chloe Zafonte May 2016
Some people don't want a romantic relationship, they want someone to control. In order to feel in power.
340 · Dec 2015
Love is free
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
Love disregards race
Where you meet in the time of place
As well as gender
We can't just crush our feelings inside a blender
Distance does not matter
Enough about the social ladder
Our lives don't matter to you
You're so ignorant you don't even have
A clue
If you love and go for it ***** everyone else
339 · Mar 2016
Positivity
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
Nothing is perfect
The sun won't always shine
Not every poem will rhyme
You won't turn water into wine
But it will all make sense at the right time
339 · Dec 2015
Confusion
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
You claim you never wanted me to leave
Those actions make me find that hard to believe
be happy I'm gone
Although I'll never know what I did wrong
You promised me everything down to a ring
How is that special? She was promised the same thing
I don't understand why you want me to stay
The more you do and say pushes me further away
You just enjoy hurting me, maybe you're angry?
There's nothing I can do
Besides move on from you
338 · Mar 2016

Visible Monsters
Chloe Zafonte Mar 2016
Some people
see others as the inner monster inside them that's why they wander off alone.
338 · Jan 2016
Love today
Chloe Zafonte Jan 2016
Love is seen as unclean
sin from the  past hurt that lies within.
Today everyone is emotionally damaged by some **** and it ruins future relationships because they can't let go.

Bubbles
Chloe Zafonte Apr 2016
People are like bubbles
Most follow the wind, pop within seconds,
become stuck on one thing and others travel miles and miles.

Good morning
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
I love the light breeze of the upcoming winter
Burrowing itself inside my sweater like a small splinter
I watch the sun gently rise
Painting a mirrol of pink and orange
In the sky
It brings my stress to ammend
Hoping the gorgeous day won't end

Cold hearts
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2016
Why are people so afraid to be alone?
Everyone's heart is colder than a golden stone.
335 · Oct 2017
Silent cry
Chloe Zafonte Oct 2017
I can cry no more tears, just express silent fears. Every relationship has it's boos, but you don't know what it is like to walk in my shoes. Feeling butterflies to baby flutters and extreme sadness when I'm the only one stepping up to be a Mother. Maybe it's amusing for you to see my cry but I won't let you watch the inside of me die. My hormones and emotions are on the run but if it is anything I know I have to protect my son.
335 · Dec 2015
My Motto
Chloe Zafonte Dec 2015
One who dares to criticize the way you live your life
doesn't have one of their own!
the world would be a better place if people minded their own business

Waiting for you
Chloe Zafonte Nov 2016
When I died, I floated to the moon.
I sat upon him and waited for you.
He told me not to worry, I'll see you soon.
Nothing personal I made this up
331 · Feb 2018
Where did you go?
Chloe Zafonte Feb 2018
I hate whoever gives you drugs, I hate whatever drives you to do them and what makes them so special. I miss the old you, the person who wasn't coming around high and smelly. I miss the adventures we used to have during the summer, spending the nights together, eating pizza in your car in front of the lake at 2 am when you'd wake me up and take me out of my apartment, spend the night at your house and wake up next to each other. Now I just lay around crying and worried you'll end up dead in a ditch somewhere or in a jail cell. The only thing I have left of you is your baby kicking and you may not be around to see him come out because you're too busy getting baked in your fantasy world not giving a **** about the important things. The worst part is that if I told you any of this you wouldn't care enough to hear it when you're too far gone to hear me plea.
