i wish
The Red Woman Apr 2019
i wish we only saw souls
only heard the thoughts of the mind
fell in love with our eyes forever closed
and hands tied behind our backs

it’s all the same
The Red Woman Jul 2019
it’s all the same stories
hidden under different
colours,
languages,
and intentions

to break you
The Red Woman Jul 2019
i never wanted to
break you
i really wish that i
could’ve been there
but i was just
in so much pain
and hurting.
i couldn’t handle myself
so how could i handle
you

i smoked a joint
The Red Woman Jun 2019
when i tell people my age
that i have a depression
a lot of them tell me to
try and smoke
something a bit stronger
so i smoked joints
two days in a row
and the terrifying thing was
that i felt good
107 · Apr 2019
you.
The Red Woman Apr 2019
i stayed alive
so i wouldn't cause any pain
but then you came along
and had me wanting a future
because no time in the world with you
could ever be enough
the time i wanted to live

natural beauty
The Red Woman Jun 2019
i went for a walk in the
woods
and as i was walking
i looked around and saw
all the beautiful
trees

the most beautiful ones
were the ones that had
marks,
scars
and bumps
how very special they are
will forever amaze
me
I took a brief look at the trees, and noticed that the most beautiful ones, were the ones with 'damage'.
My thought behind this was, that i often do or should view people the same way.

the language is poor
The Red Woman Sep 2019
the language is poor
and life is hard
i can only explain
with actions and their descriptions
i'm trying to do my part

swirling teaspoon
The Red Woman Sep 2019
i swirl my teaspoon around
in my small cup of coffee
i can't help but notice
the black hole
that is appearing
i want to hold onto it
because it seems so familiar
reminding me of a sickness
that is swirling around
inside of me

never ending limbo
The Red Woman Apr 2019
i unfolded my mind for
you
bit by bit
day by day
tore down walls
that had been built up
by pain and loss
you ignited a small flame
in my ever so grey heart
and then you left
leaving my heart at tease

The Red Woman Jun 2019
i'm so very
very
tired

The Red Woman May 2019

the broken window
The Red Woman Aug 2019
he broke the window
and she had the choice
to either fix it
or seal it up

she chose to seal it up
and stay in darkness

The Red Woman Sep 2019

the distant people are hurting and dying

my worst nightmare
The Red Woman Apr 2019
i'm in a room
not too hot
nor too cold
just quite perfect for
me

i stay in the room
and the days go by
now the mirrors come
one mirror
two mirrors
three mirrors

the room is filled with mirrors
i try to look away
but my naked self is starring
i don't fit in here
i run
and now it starts all over

Untitled
The Red Woman Apr 2019
the most beautiful part of me
is my mind
and soul
i'll tell you tales
of a broken girl
who rose from flames
but never show you
the naked body
the flames left standing

Untitled
The Red Woman May 2019
i can never think of something to write
when i feel like writing
but when i force myself
to look at my keyboard
thoughts stumble around
sentences are put together
and yet i do not understand all of them
but i write them down
for you
and for me
i hope that i will one day understand it all

— The End —
