Personal Poems Too simple.
Too complicated.
Never perfect.
Never right.
Soft footsteps,
Echo of the walls,
As you walk down the hall.
Snow falls to the earth.
While your soul rises to the stars.
Still your head rests on the grave.
Tears that you cry.
You don’t know why.
No sense.
It never makes any.
Why this sudden burst of depression,
Sadness fills your eyes.
Pain in your breath.
They don’t notice.
Maybe it’s better.
Sometimes I just want to be alone.
Sometimes I just want a friend.
Someone to get lost in.
Forgot the problems.
The pain.
Reasonless pain.
Do you understand?
Why do I hurt so much?
Why should I?
I never had half the shit happen to me that you.
I should be happy.
I shouldn’t be this mess.
Screaming on the inside.
Wishing for help.
But hurting those that try.
Do you understand?
Why do I hurt so much?
Tears fill my eyes.
I don’t know why.
You couldn’t even notice.
To young to understand.
They didn’t get it either.
To self centered to understand.
No one should get it.
At least not till I.
Pain.
Pity.
Quiet love.
Love thy self.
I hate.
Crying into the night.
No reason why.
Staring down the barrel.
Don’t understand why.
A slow beat.
A quiet song.
Violins start.
Then the drums.
A funeral march.
To my early death.
So confused.
You think I’m tired.
Or I just hate the world.
Maybe I just hate myself.
Or everyone else.
The fool in the dark.
To stupid to find the light.
Lost in my own despair.
My storm of pain.
Don’t know why I feel this way.
Tears fill my eyes.
I don’t know why.
Will you help me?
Realize who I am?
When I push you away,
I want you near.
When I hide behind a different subject,
I need to know you want to hear about the real problem.
When I walk away,
You pull me back.
When I’m lost,
Help me find my way.
When I try to disappear,
Grab me by my waist and hold me near.
When I break down in your arms,
Hold me up.
When it finally ends,
Realize that I’m who I am.
It won’t change.
I’m not ordinary,
I’m not the norm.
And I don’t want to be.
Realize that I don’t change easily.
Realize that I care more then you would guess.
That inside I’m a shy weak kid.
Still not grown up.
Still confused.
A small child,
Lost in a huge world.
Looking for a hand to hold onto.
Hold me.
Yet it’s all a dream.
You can try to save me,
But I still might dive over the edge.
Tears fill my eyes…
I don’t know why…
