PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

All of my heart and all its pieces

Broken and scattered

I lay on my room floor;

Blank expressions shattered

I’m wondering as I cry

Laying here empty, thinking why

Why do we fight?

Why fight when we’re both

Just falling

Or why even try if we’re both

Just fading

Because we have fallen

We fell the first time

And we stood

The second and we cracked

And again once more and we were

Simply just torn apart

May be we were just torn from the start

But it still kills me to leave

Just get up, and depart

Without looking back

And it seems like I don’t care

But I’m simply too scared

And you never did learn to share

But we no longer give even a slightest damn

As we stand and we simply stare

Stare at each other and what

We have become

What’s done can’t be undone

We got so caught up in all of this

We never stopped to see and look

To shoot and now we just miss

Or missed…

Missed all the simplicity that should have been there

The words that should have been said

And some should have been left unspoken

We might be bonded forever but we can’t be unbroken

Weve become monsters

To each other, strangers

And everything is just up in the air

And the sting lingers

Just like at one time

So did your finger

And so did your touch

Which some days I miss so much

But I don’t miss it enough to go back to who I was

And who we were

No I can’t do that

It’s too empty and dark down there

A shallow hallow deep hole

We became each others greater enemies

And forgot how to be lovers

Covered and swimming in the doubt

Instead of being the believer

We thought we would make it when

We jumped in deep

And now….

Now I’m losing sleep

I’m afraid to close my eyes

Because I’m afraid I’ll hear your cries

Of when you begged me to stay and to remain

But I couldn’t keep living in the fear and pain

I needed change, I needed freedom

I had to walk away from my only kingdom

I let go only to grab hold

Of life, of simplicity and silence

Of beauty, true laughter, and balance

And oh how strange it is to feel so captivated and yet free

Walking down the road where I finally have control

And I get to rediscover me.
