[fl0ridakil0s 3,959]

Invented poetry. Queen of literature

[xxmissdaytonaxx 30,078]

this is the most “news” we’ve gotten in awhile lol.

[Beautiful Loser 48,736]

IF it is lyrics, it feels like it has the same build-up as HTD and Hope is a keyboard smash to me. Anyone else?

[Roll With me 5,667]

Fuck, I want news about the ALBUM. Not the poetry book...

[Marius 12,802]

This poem is so heartwarming and sad at the same time.

[UltraHeroin 8,803]

That's definetly a poem to me and it's really fucking great not gonna lie

[bored 7,935]

It's definitely a poem, she even used her typewriter... I'm kinda dying at the fact these poems are gonna more lyrically interesting than half of NFR.

 

"Happy" is already better than "Hope..."

[Roll With me 5,667]

Lana reading our reaction to the poems and finally sending them to some editorial company to start printing the book, get it ready for next year and release it before the album

[honey dew 11,747]

you thought i was rich and i am but not how you think

i live in a tudor house under the freeway in Mar Vista

by the beach

when you call i take my phone outside to the picnic table

that i bought from the Rose Bowl

and i listen to the rushing cars above

and think and the last time you visited me

and the last time we made love

how the noise got louder and louder during rush hour

until it sounded like the sea

and it felt like the ocean was the sky

and that i was flying because you were two feet taller than me

until you took me in your arms

and i could touch the stars

and they all fell down around my head

and i became an angel

and you put me to bed

 

happy

 

People think that i'm rich and i am but not how they think

i have a truck with a gold key chain in the ignition

and on the back it says: happy joyous and free

 

happy

 

and when i drive

i think about the last time my friends were driving with me

how the radio was so loud that we couldn't hear the words

so we became the music

 

happy

 

They write that i'm rich and i am but not how they think

i have safe i call the boyfriend box

and in it every saved receipt

every movie theater ticket just to remind me

of all the things i've loved and lost and loved again

unconditionally

 

You joke that i'm rich and i am but not how you think

i live in a tudor house under the freeway

off of Rose Avenue 12 blocks from the beach

and when you call i put your sweater on

and put you on speaker

and chat for hours underneath the trees

and think about the last time you were here lying next to me

how the noise from the cars got louder and louder

during rush hour

until it sounded like a river or a stream

and it felt like we were swimming

but it wasn't just a dream

we were just

 

happy

okay nice but drop the lead lana

[YUNGATA 14,955]

This poem is uhh Not Good and actually kind of cringe, sorry bout it.

[Jean 4,117]

It's truly beautiful, but it's still not enough. I suppose my hype for the album has died. Whatever she posts, nothing excites me. I suppose I won't be hyped even if she gives us the album cover or whatever at this point. I'm done.

[bored 7,935]

If she's still being an insta baddie then we can expect a 3rd post?

It's better than 80% of LFL

[Veinsineon 76,597]

I love this as a poem, but it would be such a beautiful song

perhaps. but the BPBP demo has some of her best lyrics tbh

[violets 11,896]

it would be cute for her to release the album with the poetry book... idk thats just what im hoping because im not a fan of poetry so the book alone isn't that exciting for me.

[Beautiful Loser 48,736]

I kinda hope (think) that it's song lyrics because she's once again talking about how people see her as something which she is not, just like she does in MAC and Hope.

 

"You thought I was rich and I am but not how you think"

"They mistook my kindness for weakness"

"They write that I'm happy, they know that I'm not"

 

Maybe there's some kind of pattern here? She's really feeling misunderstood it seems.

the early month of mid july, te amo much begs to disagree
