PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

All my life I've been looking for an excuse,

For being so heartless, for being a recluse,

After many years of searching it was easy to see,

I've only just discovered the one to blame is me.



Everyone's at fault, but only through my eyes,

I've always been the 'normal one', what a clever disguise.

I'm as far from normal as you could get,

And cemented in my ways, I'm set.



I took too long learning how to be,

Every second losing the real me,

That simple voice telling me how to give,

That pure me, teaching my soul to live.



Now I'm hollow on the inside,

My voice has faded I've lost my guide.

But life continues and so I live on,

Disconnected, and empty until my time is gone.



But even with this life that I have wearily driven,

I see that unintentionally I have actually given.

And as I fade away I'll glance back, one last look,

Knowing I've left my mark on the pages of lifes book.
