Vanessa Kingsley Poems

The people and screams. The lies; the dreams.
Shut them out.
The pain, the sorrow. No hope for tomorrow.
Shut them out.
...

It seems the stars have lost their luster.
They don’t sparkle and twinkle like they used to.
The moon has dulled and hardly lights the way,
Hardly holds the same magic.
...

A single dropp as red as rose, is lying on the ground.
It stains the earth it’s fallen on and scatters all around
A few more slowly drip away and swirl in a sleepy haze.
It’s silently putting all into a sort of daze.
...

Sit at the vanity and toy with your hair.
Eyeliner, mascara, lipgloss.

Be plain. Be simple. Be that girl as always.
...

They can say your name and show me pictures.
Bring up laughs and memories.
Quote lines you said and things you did
They can ask me questions and wonder
...

Please don’t be mad at me
Please show me you acre
Why are you mad at me?
I’m trying to fix things
...

Lonely, lonely little girl
All alone in her tiny world
Lonely, lonely child of sea
She moves the moon and tides with ease
...

Something’s I’ve felt were not entirely correct
In the heat of the moment a person can feel regret
I won’t apologize for what I went through
I do feel silly at what I thought about you
...

Head bangs I try screaming but nothing comes out
I see everything but blackness covers everything
Knowing everything
Knowing nothing
...

Let me know
When the storm is finally over
Tell me when
The clouds aren’t swollen with resent
...
