PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

can you walk with me as i take a trip through my mental
as i recall places that i wish id never been to
all the trauma caused by the widespread pain your words brought
as i loose memory of the things that i once taught
when this is all over ill disappear from your vision
never to appear again in my own minds prison
leave the void and the noise behind and forget the past
hard to learn from what was when nothing ever last
tried to build for the future and you all tore it down
on the seashore you all stand as you let me drown
never said i expected much from anyone but to give me an ear
dont take it off and hand it to me just let me know you hear
keep your hand attached to your arm dont remove it
just reach out sometimes and let me cling to it
i dont ask for any eye just notice when im here for you
acknowledge that i exist dont leave like i would never do
dont give your heart but let me hear it beat sometime
then ill reach inside my chest and pull it out to show you mine
i dont expect much from you but i expect more from myself
do unto other as you would have them do when you need help
i would give you an eye a hand my ear or my heart
i would give you everything if i could tear myself apart
i give till there nothing left and still i would give more
but you wouldnt do less than that. is that what friends are for?
and even through all the hard times and the highs and lows
even if you gave me nothing id give you all of me i just thought you should know
