Daydream

Poetry Set #1

1.
who are you?
why are you here?
what do you want?
i ask all these questions, yet i know all the answers.
but perhaps,
after i inquire,
and receive no response,
i'll find all i need to know.
in the depths of your silence,
my heart will confine itself in a cage,
and yet...
i'll be set free.

2.
i wait.
for dusk to set upon this day,
for that special melody to play,
for the stars to emerge from a dreary sky,
for us to lie beneath their empty light,
i wait.

i wait for the time i'll see you again.
how much longer will that be?
for now i'll wait as the sun attempts to reach me,
through my closed curtains and open heart
that waits for you to think of me.

i wait for my feelings to reach you,
for you to fulfill a promise you never made,
i wait for you to think i'm beautiful.
it makes me feel guilty,
it makes my heart ache,
and yet,
i wait.

i wait for my longing to go away,
for the sun to rise upon a new day,
i wait for the words you need to say
so i will no longer
need
to wait.

and i wonder,
after all this time,
if you've been waiting too.

3.
the lies you once told
will forever linger on every sweet word you speak.
you can blame him all you want,
you can say a half-hearted apology,
but my trust is not something you can easily regain
with more lies
and sweet words.

A/N

I apologize for this trash. I'm in no way a professional poet, I don't know the rules of poetry inside and out. I just know that this is what poetry means to me, and when I write in this way I feel it can be interpreted as poetry? Poetry is an art form, and art is all about self expression. Now I'm just talking jibberish to make you think I know what I'm doing.
Anyway, these are some of the first poems I've ever written. I always write in a leather book with lowercase cursive  because the aesthetically pleasing aspect can distract people from the trash poetry. On wattpad there's nowhere to hide. I hope you liked these, though!

Ciao!
