I wish I has the words to explainThat every morning I wake up, not sure that I can stand the painI feel like a zombie pretending I am happyHaving the strength for everyone but me I don't know what it is I need But I know it is not this, which makes my heart bleedI have become frozen out of fearAnd come close to drowning myself in tearsWhen did I start caring so little about myself Feel too much put my heart on a shelfI mi...

If everyone was able to be free to be themselves, the truly vulnerable; no walls, no masks, no lies, their souls would heal, their bitterness would lessen, their pain of spending years trying to fit someone else's image of who they should be would subside. But they can't, they don't, they won't. Because they may never meet that person who accepts their soul for what it really is, with all its cracks and scars. The person...

Mind spiraling Your skin burning  Searching for what you want  What you need No direction  Losing control Playing games From behind your walls Everything makes you hurt more So you play harder  Grasping at straws  Anything to fill the void The emptiness spreads  And aches from deep inside  Longing for something  You just cant find With one touch  He cools the skin As the burn starts on the inside  The emptiness starts to...

My heart is broken Shattered , tattered, torn into a million pieces A puzzle now in disarray The parts no longer fit, the meaning no longer clear With no one to blame but myself I took a chance, thought I was safe Taken by surprise Of what my heart could really feel Never felt so complete, never felt such love But it wasn’t mine to have His love heals wounds I didn’t know I had His arms held my world together His kiss mad...

Never again will I settle for security and comfortable. If it doesn't make my heart race, If your pulse doesn't rise when you see me If making love to me is the last thing on your mindAnd kissing me is a chore...I can't , I won't , I'm dying inside.Can I fault you? I guess not, but you knew what I needWhat makes me tick and resets my soulAnd yet it didn't matter.So be fair to me and set me freeBefore my soul completely wi...

I wish someone could understand The burn, the urge, the pain, The feeling of being trapped in sand Or being caught in the ice cold rainLike its out of your controlWhen in fact it controls you You can try to set a goalBut it is the best you can doSometimes every day is a fightAnd you try not to surrender Other times you feel normal and right And life isn't so tenderI wish you could walk in my shoes For even just an hour To...

Building my wall Brick by brickHave to make it tallNeed to make it thickSo tired of the painI can't take it anymore Tears fall like rainQuit opening the doorHarden my heart Why do I continue to careWhere do I even start It's more than I can bear Please make it stopI want to scratch off my skinFeel like I took a 100-foot dropDon't want to let anyone one in How did I let this happen Why am I such a foolI feel all my control...

One day, a couple years ago, I went online to read and write poems. As you read over the words letting your mind flow around the meaning , you find some you connect with and some you don't. In a rare moment you find your heart catches, and your pulse races with each word that absorbs you . You FEEL the story. You are absorbed by what this person is saying. It could be the cadence of the words, the word choice or the direc...

It's deja vu, but not at all the same. How can that be?Almost three years ago I almost lost you. You had been sick for months, so our life had been strained, I needed you more than you were capable of giving. We were soul mates, the couple everyone was envious of, and yet we threw it all away. Our connection had eroded weakening our commitment. I was lonely, feeling lost and immersed in stress. And then you were admitted...

If I look back To that year in my life When everything turned upside down And my world was filled with strife I was stupid and naive And lost sight of what mattered I quickly left a wake in my path Of people's feelings broken and shattered I fell hook line and sinker For words of lies and deceit Instead of working on my life With the person that makes me complete Luckily even though not his intention A wise old man showed...

I will love you morethan you will ever know By the time you understand it I will have already decided to go I don't know how to not give my allI wouldn't change it for anything But it's usually the cause of my fall You miss me when I'm gone But I'm invisible sitting next to you Everything and one is more important There's nothing else for me to do I am worth more than that I am worth being adoredSo far in this relationshi...

We are not perfect people But together our love is perfect Our love has bound us past , present and future  Intertwined tightly together History connects us, Strength binds us  You are my rock When I am weak I am your laughter  When life is stressful Two very different puzzle pieces  That connect and complete the picture I used to believe I loved you more After years of being the stronger one  Putting up with so much shit...

You’ve left me, Destroyed me, I don’t know how to heal. Still in disbeliefThat this is happening, It can’t be real You told me we were Soul mates From the very first kissBonded when we put on our ring I mistakenly believed There was no you and me, only us We were strong enough to survive anything You are lost and wandering I’m desperately trying to hold on Say something, tell me we’ll be okay, give me an excuse I regret t...

My life consumed With thoughts of youI can't believe I was that naiveBut it was true After some time awayAnd a few steps backWhen I read some of the BS I have a laugh attack So much drama How did I breathe?Now that I watch others I can barely believe So n so is in loveThis week with himNext week it will be real With someone else, it's all so grim I still believe you can fall in love Without ever meeting But real love last...
