PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

sometimes it feels like i'm an empty vessel

missing out on real emotions

breaking down within what's left of me

and fading out from who i am

i may not live like i'm supposed to

or play by the rules of common man

yet i cling to what makes me human

though you may never understand

in my solitude i can see clearly

the advice you attempt to share

i promise i'm listening intently

it's not like i do not care

it's my life we're discussing

it means alot to me i swear

mistakes i made so long ago

are not the same i make today

there was a time when all was perfect

it's sure not now, that is to say

once i had a home and family

by their choice they fell away

my heart aches from the memories

of the ones i left behind

i think of them every moment

they're never far from my mind

it's become my life's purpose

to know a love i can call mine

if i could rebuild the bridges

and change the choices that i made

it wouldn't take a second thought

i should hav never run away

if i could do it all again

i promise i would've stayed
