Darien Trask Poems

Allure me with your eyes
Your smile is so orgasmic
Cover my lips
Grab my hand
...

I prayed to have a better understanding for people around me and myself.
I prayed to find myself more because I once offered so much of myself,
I lost who I am for quite a bit.
I'm glad I'm regaining who I am again.
...

Have you ever felt dead
On the inside?
Just empty
Like nothing was there
...

When your text came in
My eyes brightened up
Like a diamond in a crowd of pearls
You had me mesmerized
...

Sometimes I want you to notice me
And sometimes I want you to vanish
It's like a constant battle of Tom and Jerry
Or two knives brought to a gun fight
...

Some days it's hard to smile
It's hard to show your teeth
And pretend everything is okay
Some days my smile is genuine
...

When I kiss you
I taste regrets
Regretful thoughts and spirits
As you touch me in spots
...

Who am I?
I'm a light bulb waiting to shine
But I'm still dim
Dim to the world
...

I called on you when i needed help
You looked at your phone and stared
You stared
Like it was a roach on a wall
...

You out there with your friends
While I'm laid up in bed
Waiting on you
Time is passing
...
