This may be my last poem
but I dont really have the courage
to make that come true
so instead I beg God to take me away
but Im still here waiting everyday
what doesnt kill you makes you stronger
but what doesnt kill you injures your soul
one of these days my wish my be granted
I want to fly away and taste the light
instead of being trapped in the night
Im so sick of trying to be obvious
but even sick of hiding behind a smile
sometimes its real happiness
right now its a lie
you dont know how much I cry
everyday Im alone and bored
no one even cares or tries to help
really all I do is scream for attention
they see and dont think the hurt is real
how should they know how I feel?
when they only get a fishbowl glance
I should take them down inside the murky water
they wouldnt know how to handle it then
but that would only push them more away
all I want is to feel inside the light of day
I dont want to be alone anymore
watching the most important people disappear
is it me thats letting them go?
I want them to come back to me...
I dont want to react selfishly
I just want one person to be there
just one person to talk to
I need someone to hold me
God either answer my death plea
or send someone here to help me
This is a very powerful piece. Your emotions have been captured beautifully by your words.
