Struggle

Out in the forest, surrounded by nothing.

I walk until I can see no more,

But the nature that absorbs me.

The sky turns gray, will it pour?

Under the glistening cover of the trees,

The animals proudly sing.

As I look into the sky to see the scene around me,

A bird whistles his tune and extends his wing.

He has no cage,

Chained by no one.

I watch his movement, jealous of his freedom.

He will be free to fly till dawn.

All the animals gather around me,

Staring at my helpless soul.

They know I wish to live among them,

It would be an ultimate goal.

As the rain starts to trickle,

I begin to head out.

In my mind, I know,

That to this place I will return without a doubt.

Francesca Schiavone

A ship is meant to take you somewhere,

not to hold you back or to be unfair

They give you the comfort of knowing

that if you decide to depart, you’re still moving and growing.

As long as they’re floating, I can choose to find something new.

And they can find it too;

if that’s what we so choose to do.

A ship isn’t meant to plunge you into sea,

in times where compassion was all you would need.

But to do it out of greed left me bitter and cold,

yet missing its comfort will never get old.

Cycles

She was the sunset which brightened my skies

Saturated crimson and purples and whites

I followed her for the longest time

Till she no longer wanted me by her side

Lonelier now, I tossed out a hand

Hoping it'd reach someone who'd understand

He comforted me as my sadness withdrew

And again I was happy with someone new

But one fateful night I made a mistake

That would cause his own heart to break

And for a long time, talking was hard

How could he trust me when he had been scarred?

I love in December though I expect nothing

I give my heart and my time and my somethings

And for a short while it's the happiest I've been

Believing that I own the world with him

But I loved too warmly for someone so cold

Whose feelings then withered and left me alone

For what did I waste the wintertide's night

Just to be faced with spring's ruthless light

I can't be afraid now, or I'll lose it all

It might end bad this time, but I'll come out strong

'Cause if I don't love, then I won't be loved

So loving's a risk that I'll take in the end

A New Home

As I walk through the leaves,

And the empty trees,

I only care to see one thing,

Red roses in my arms,

So fresh and clean,

I place them near where you sleep,

There you are,

Near the trees,

I´m here mom,

Finally home, now I can breathe.

As I watch the leaves run free,

I remember the times, just you and me.

Flower of Love

I was scared to face the problem

We both were

The unnerving awareness of our fleeting feelings

There could be no more concealing

I wasn’t in love with her

Not anymore

I miss how it felt to see our relationship blossom

Now, we sit in silence; a punishment for each and every blunder

Afraid to let go of the love we spent years nurturing like seedlings

Afraid to accept that what once was is now wilted and weakening

Watching as our lives begin to sunder

Our flower of love struggling to survive when we both have no water left to pour

-Diliahna Collins

Fear of Love

Running from love

Holding my heart tight,

Do i deserve to be loved, is what keeps me up at night,

Scared of pain and heartbreak,

I refuse to cry and lie awake,

Love leaves you vulnerable,

Some will take advantage of that,

Only to leave you right on your back,

Heart so cold and black,

No room for love,

So I continue to run.

Leaving love for none.

Love Puzzle

Love is a puzzle

Communication helps maintain love

But sometimes, it feels as if we’re wearing a muzzle

In hope for luck, some people speak to the man above

Others keep silent

One day is an adventure

The next one side becomes a tyrant

While the other is tender

Love is a puzzle

You never said you would go

You never said goodbye

I blinked, and at once, you were gone

The days went on slowly, sorrowfully

And only you would know why

This time I need you

This time I cried

We were once in love like Romeo and Juliet

If only our love could have kept us together, you’ll still beside me

I love you as much as then

I still feel it now

In my heart, you hold a place

That nobody can replace

It broke my heart to lose you

A hole remains

The day you left me, It felt like a part of me was lost

Because a part of me left with you

The day you left me
