My Favorite Poem I’ve Written :)
Lonely thoughts leave me stranded, and I’m left here to find. What once was couldn’t be, and is no longer mine. My heart is left in shock and the silence is too intense. I need to breathe, get out of here. Maybe lay down to rest. It’s so cold I can see my breath, but at least I know I’m still breathing. My tears start over again, the pain comes to take over, now starts the grieving.
The sound of your voice takes me back to my dreams. & in that world nothing is what it seems. You have another secret to keep, something that’s been tearing me apart for the last little while. It’s okay, let the silence speak, it’s been way too long since I’ve last seen your smile.
We were once intertwined as one, now we’re two lonely hearts. I want to find you again, your mine. But I’m falling apart.
This ocean is but a graveyard of those glorious ships of the past. Was our love just a phase, a memory. Do you think it can last? Today I picked you flowers, that you might never see. Why can’t you accept it - I’m not the enemy. & with the quiver of her lip and the strength of her touch. I realized no one could make me feel more alive.
I live my life in the shadows of the light - never satisfied. There goes that lonely girl walking down the dark road. She can’t love again because her heart is forever closed.
She cuts herself to lose the pain, but from the angry slits in her arms - she did not change - she stayed the same. Sick of it all, she knealt down, took the fall. She prayed to God “HELP ME! I’m so confused”, she prayed to God..but he refused.
My heart is numb, I’ve given too much. Here I stand without you, here I live without you, but here…I can’t stop loving you.
I need to escape, there’s too many people. I can’t STAND a crowd. But I’m too afraid to be alone, so I just don’t make a sound. I’m dwelling on lost love, a lost cause. But as the bad news kept coming I couldn’t press pause.
I’m trapped in your spell, blinded by love - because my feelings grew and I fell into the habit of - Your kiss and your touch and the way you looked into my eyes. And after I gave you EVERYTHING, I was in for a surprise. I wasn’t ready for you to leave, but that’s what I get for wearing my heart on my sleeve. You were afraid to trust, it was something you feared, & because I broke your walls down my thank you was forgotten tears. I came out to the world for you, and all I get is this? Lost time, and a few memories to reminise….?
I keep telling myself I hate you, but in the end I know its not true. You were the only one to make me heart feel like it was brand new.
