My Colours
Radwa Jul 12
Colour has been drained from my life,
My sky was once bright and blue,
My earth is now brown and dull,
The clouds are now Grey,
Despite once being as white as my skull,
But from within me,
Flourish flowers and kindness of pink,
And from my heart,
Red does drip
And in my chest,
Black has spread within me,
And in my head,
There lies the memory,
Of my once bright yellow meadows,
And my beautiful blue sky,
Even if some if these hues go against me,
I hope they will forever continue,
To brighten my life.

Troublesome Tales
Radwa Jul 12
I recall countless moments,
I recall your promises to I,
But now time has spoken,
And your promises have been deemed lies,
Your tongue runs ahead of you,
You tie knots in places that should be set free,
Keep hold of your mouth,
And speak of only truth,
Spinning tales and myths,
You've wasted my youth,
A heinous act,
An immoral deed,
Keep hold of your mouth,
The knifes of your lies,
Have cut me deep.

My Empty Solar System
Radwa Jul 10
The Moon and Mars,
Compete for my heart,
They do not earn my love,
Only my sadness,
They do not bring me comfort,
Only slight madness,
But I adore my moon to pieces,
And I miss my Mars all too much,
why can't I empty my mind of all cares,
Why must i think so much,
I think and rewind,
And rewind and think again,
Perhaps if I was different,
I'd be with both of them,
Perhaps then Mars would stay by me,
And the moon wouldn't see loving me as a chore,
I'm sorry I'm so sorry,
I've hurt you both once more,
But Mars twisted my perception,
And now I cannot think straight,
He picked at my flaws and imperfections,
And said " here, fix them"
But he never showed me how to fix such mistakes,
He never showed me kind nor gentle words,
And even if he did,
He wanted something more,
So then the moon arrived,
And she lit me a beautiful path,
But soon her light vanished,
Leaving me in the dark,
So I shouted and I yelled,
I cried and I screamed,
Until Saturn's hand,
Came to reach out for me,
She pulled me out of the gloom,
And sat me on her ring,
But now she's gone too,
What will this now bring,
She informed me that her orbit,
Would now consist of otherwise,
And when she saw this saddened me,
She told me not to cry,
She said she'd still come and visit,
That she'd still shine for me at night,
But it's been a few weeks,
And ive done nothing but cry,
So now I lay deserted by Mars and Saturn,
Waiting for the moon to shine,
But her moonlight burns my skin,
She won't be calming tonight,
So I hide behind a tree,
And talk to her from there,
So that she doesn't see my teary eyes,
And so that her heart I do not tear,
But what am I to do,
When I've hurt her clearly,
And how can I act,
When I cannot think clearly,
So now I am tired,
And my limbs have gone weary,
My sadness knows no causes nor faces,
And so I appear forever dreary.

Love
Radwa Jul 10
But you said you loved the moon,
They why torment her so,
Continue like such and she will leave you,
Silently will she go,
She'll float to a different sky,
And shine on a different star,
I don't think I was ever worthy of her,
And so she's gone far,
I'm a stupid weight that heavies her,
I constrict her and hold her back,
So without me she is free,
And she wont ever come back,
Perhaps she thinks she loves me,
But I was never worthy of love,
Love was meant to hurt me,
And make me give up,
I've tried to love others,
Not in the same sense but still a love in its way,
But I take and I take and I give nothing,
So I should be cast away,
I hurt those I love,
I make them sad and regretful,
But i really did love my moon,
But of love itself,
I am forgetful.

My Moon
Radwa Jul 10
Her eyes lit up again,
Tilting her head up to see me,
Full of love and full of wonder,
Her look never deceives me,
Her eyes twinkle,
Again and once more,
Her scent wafts around me,
Seeping in through my door,
Filling my head with dreams,
Giving me hearts for eyes,
Look at her glowing,
Look at her shine,
I've pledged to her a promise,
That she will forever be mine.

Her Orbit
Radwa Jul 10
The moons orbit never seems to match mine,
But I've twisted my own orbit,
Countless times,
I've gone left as she does,
And when she turns so do I,
But after I change my orbit,
She changes again in front of my eyes,
Yet I cannot constrict her,
And tell her go along this way,
And no one is confiding me,
To twist and turn my shape,
But I've cut off corners of myself,
I've sliced of pieces of my soul,
So that I could follow her,
And she hasn't noticed at all,
When she sees me in her orbit,
She thinks of it as serendipity,
She does not cut from herself,
And so I'm binded in stupidity,
I want her to cut for me,
Without telling her to cut,
I don't want her hurt,
But perhaps hurt she must,
I cut off an arm,
Just to look into her eyes,
Yet she hasn't cut me anything,
And so I sit and cry,
But she isn't compelled,
To do any of the such,
But oh I'm tired,
From giving so much.

A Little Cinnamon
Radwa Jul 10
And I miss her cinnamon,

That fills the air,

And I love that cinnamon,

That she carries everywhere,

And her cinnamon loves me,

Just as she loves I,

And I hope this cinnamon scent,

Will remain for all my life.

YOU AND I
Radwa Jul 10
YOU AND I TILL MY HEARTS STOPS BEATING,
ME AND YOU TILL WE'RE BOTH FROZEN IN TIME,
YOU AND ME TILL MY LUNGS QUIT BREATHING,
INTERRUPTING THEIR MELODIC RHYME,
ME AND YOU TILL THE SKY IS FOREVER GREY,
ME AND YOU TILL WE'RE OLD IN EVERYWAY,
ME AND YOU TILL THE MOON DOESNT SHINE,
YOU AND I CUZ UR FOREVER MINE

The quiet summer breeze,
Has sworn to reach me,
The blissful morning birds,
Have promised to sing for me,
The stars have said,
That they'll forever shine on me,
But the dark has overtaken,
Their measly pleas,
The sweet breeze has vanished,
Leaving sickness in the air,
The birds have migrated,
Distracted by meaningless cares,
The stars have been silenced,
Distraught by their own affairs,
And so I find myself alone,
And so at the moon I stare.

Dont Depart
Radwa Jul 10
I love the trees,
That sway in the breeze,
And I love the moon,
That shines just for me,
I love her glow,
I love her shine,
Oh please don't take,
From me what is mine,
Because ive loved her since forever,
Since the first crack of dawn,
And at her loss,
I will surely mourn,
So let her shine,
And let her stay,
And don't let her departure,
Ever be the case.

And I love my moon,
At whom I stare,
So long as I have her,
I could not care,
Let the sky be forever blue,
Let the flowers be bright and forever bloom,
Let the birds in the sky,
Come flying down to you,
Won't you say you need me too?
I've looked through this earth,
And found nothing but disdain,
So if my moon leaves,
If she turns away,
How could I be expected,
To ever love again.
Radwa Jul 10
I come and I go,
I leave as I please,
But a piece of me lingers,
A part of me screams,
MY HEART WONT MOVE ON,
IVE LOUDENED MY PLEA,
OH ILL KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR,
WON'T YOU ANSWER ME,
PLEASE DONT RUN AWAY,
IM TIRED OF CHASING,
OH PLEASE WONT YOU STAY,
ANOTHER PERSON YOURE FACING,
BUT I SWEAR TO IT,
THAT NO ONE LOVES YOU LIKE I,
I KNOW THAT THIS MAY HAUNT ME,
UNTIL I HAVE DIED.

My Star and Shell
Radwa Jul 10
Oh Look at this obscure thing I've found,
Dangling right off the edge of a cloud,
I hold it to my heart soft and sound,
Oh do come and see what I've found,
A little shell shiny and round,
Gold and captivating, simply profound,
I hold it dear to me, And ive made it my crown,
And I won't ever care, if at this others seem to frown,
My little golden shell, is not to be clowned,
But my star does not seem to ever be homebound,
And so I must return her now,
To the depths of her oceanly home is she bound,
And while I attempt to revive this deed, I hit a sharp ground,
My blood flows freely, without interruption nor sound,
And so I lay deserted, as my lips pale to blue and my hair dies to brown,
Oh to die so quietly, without ever making a sound.

I love the moons rays,
But as of now her rays will harm me,
I love her in every way,
She's always stood beside me,
But she knows this could cause me hurt,
And she knows leaving would cause me pain,
But I just miss everything she gave me,
I hope I haven't loved in vain,
And when I spent my days aching,
Wishing to berid this pain,
She soothed all my worries,
Made me believe I'm worthy of love again,
But if those around me,
Can drift away so easily,
And if anyone who's ever come to love me,
Has left me with such ease,
Then perhaps love is something,
I must watch from far away,
As everyone trades it,
But my love is thrown away.

Drifting
Radwa Jul 10
Everything around me drifts away,
No one I love is meant to stay,
Go about your mornings,
Mourn throughout my days,
I miss what I appeared to have,
I miss him again and again,
But what could possibly,
Deem me worthy of love,
What could possibly,
Make me not give up,
I balance all these hopes atop my head,
But soon they are they to fall,
And if they break they cannot mend,
So let these hopes fall,
Let them shatter in dismay,
I've given everything,
There's nothing more to take.

Again.
Radwa Jul 10
I've died.
Again.
Silently without a threat,
I did not scream,
I did not wail,
I've died quietly,
Again.
Crying and pleading would make me nothing but a fool,
Begging to be seen would only make me a mule,
And so I will die silently,
And not make a sound,
Because ive cried to you before,
And you didn't turn around.

— The End —
