Poems

Change
From ribbons and tutus,
To piercings and tattoos,
From cats and dogs,
To iguanas and raccoons,

I have changed a lot,
But you don’t care,
I’m a lot more different now,
And still you’re there,

What makes u stay,
I’ll never know,
Why do you tolerate me?
Even when I’m beyond control?

Thank you for staying true,
Even when I disappoint you,
Thank you for supporting me,
In every little thing I do

I know its hard to let me go,
Its hard for me as well,
But this ode is to let you know,
That I love you, Mom, like hell!

For The Love Of My Life
How can you call me beautiful?
When I clearly am not,
I don’t believe you, but still, thanks a lot.

How do you comfort me so,
When I’m feeling down?
No offence dear, but u can be such a clown.

How do you find solutions,
To problems so tough?
You manage to stay positive, though life treats you rough.

I want you to know,
You’re very special to me.
Even though at times, I make it hard for you to see.

I love you baby,
That’s for sure,
And every minute every day, I start to love you more.

~Adriana~

Goodbye
I'm sorry I have to go,
I can no longer stay,
If I could,I would,
But I can’t,so I won't,

I won't stay,they won't let me,
I'll just say goodbye,
Then I'll move on.

Yes the memories will stay with me,
In my heart,they'll forever be,
But I,I have to go,
No matter how much I'll miss you so.

Please allow me to move on,
You know I'll be safe and sound,
You know my spirit will always be around.

Goodbye to you,
I have to go,
Its hard to die,
But even harder to let go.

-Adriana

Mission
A grade A you get for what you did,
Hook,line and sinker,I took it all in,
You said but you lied,
You said you'd be there till the day I died,
You lied.

The tenderness in your voice,
The softness of your touch,
All weapons in a brutal mission to break my heart,
Steal my soul.

Will I ever love another as much as I did you?
'There are other fish in the sea',
Ah, but none as good as he,
'Time will heal a broken heart',
Oh, but does time really?

I'm over you,
I'll find another,
I never loved you,
And cats have feathers.

You finished your mission,
Now go away,
You didn't abort it,
While you had a chance to stay.

Goodbye Soldier,
I'll miss you so,
And I know it will a long time coming,
Before the memory of you goes.

Friend
Though friendship has its ups and downs,
You make a smile of every frown,
As Queen of friends,I think we share the crown,
We'll show it off,all around town.

A symbol of friendship,you and me,
As no one can be as good of friends as we,
As for the negative cynics,they'll soon see,
That friendship is true,like you and me.

No matter how cliche this might sound,
You lifted me up when I was down,
Always there to crack a joke,
I'll never forget the many times you made me spew out my coke.

All through puberty,boys and bad hair days,
You were always there,come what may,
I'll always be grateful,my good friend,
For you were always there to lend a hand.

Frozen Goddess

Preserve me,

Love me,

Let my love,

Love others,

Frozen in time,

Melting in technology,

Crippling slowly,

Rotting painfully,

Losing myself as sands of the hourglass fall,

I search in my mind aimlessly,

While I'm falling shamelessly into arms of the younger,

Why am I burdening them with myself?

I might as well be frozen.

-Adriana-

Forget Love
Salvate what you still have,
Forget all that you’ve lost,
Never cherish, never love,
For you know it all ends up in tears.

Rage is but a part of change,
Lessen it with lessons that have taught you,
Not to care too much,
Not to get too attached.

Give yourself some mercy,
Just be alone,
Forever,
Self-preservation being the reason.

Don’t ever surrender yourself,
To the beautiful danger of love,
Shattered hopes are a normalcy,
Learn not to have them,
Just as you learn not to befriend,
Not to trust,
Not to love.
