PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It's funny how your life

Can change

In the blink of an eye.

Or should I say

That exhausting two seconds

It takes you to stop staring

At something you didn't

Want to see.

Or the heavy twenty minutes

It takes you to pick up your heart

Off the ground

Before someone else stomps on it

And ends you unequivocally.



And how ironic is it.

That the same person

Who would make you feel whole

Could bruise your entire emotion

So bad, that even your body feels it.



What can I believe to be true?

That naivety's best friend

Is fear.

And someday

While standing on the street corner

That houses my swift decent

I will become the perfect oursider

With no breath --



And that's life.
