6th poetry post ~Why~

You can’t read my mind

you can’t see all the things that i hide

and no matter what I try

I just cant figure out why

why do i listen to 

the words that come from glass

and why do i even care

the past is the past

why do i push people away

why wont i let my heart have a say

and why do I have to fake a grin

why cant I just let people in

is there something wrong with me

is this an abnormality 

why am i so scared of letting go

of all these questions i may never know

5th Poetry post ~Life~

Fear

It's here, it's there.

Really it's kinda everywhere.

Trust

It's not always a must.

Sometimes you can't get past some stuff.

Hope

It's the reason we hold on.

Helping make the nights not quite as long.

Love

It's something were all seeking.

And it can appear from just a simple meeting.

Life

It's all of these things, and more.

Just waiting for you, outside your door.

4th Poetry Post ~Quite~

~Quite~

it has been said and done

i watched you fade from my life

it was horrible it was painful

and i just had to watch you slowly go

but i just want you to know

i will never find someone quite like you

never gonna meet a friend who is quite as true

i am gonna miss you daily 

don’t think this pain will ever go away

this is hurting me this is killing me

watching you from afar

even though the time was short

to me it meant so much more

i can see that you’ve moved on

you probably don't remember anything 

but as for me i remember everything 

and in my mind it just keeps playing on and on

but i just want you to know

i will never find someone quite like you

never gonna meet a friend who is quite as true

i am gonna miss you daily 

don’t think this pain will ever go away

i  know that i cant compare to the fair

and i do not want to

but you have to know that

you didn’t have to cut me out so hard

don’t think i will ever be set free

and honestly that is just fine with me

because i get to keep all my memories

and to me they are worth more than anything

but i just want you to know

i will never find someone quite like you

never gonna meet a friend who is quite as true

i am gonna miss you daily 

don’t think this pain will ever go away

but i think you should also know 

the pain that all of this this has caused 

do you know how hurt i was 

when you never once called

without warning you just disappeared

and for me time seemed to still

ill never forget the chill 

when i realized your being gone was real

but i just want you to know

i will never find someone quite like you

never gonna meet a friend who is quite as true

i am gonna miss you daily 

don’t think this pain will ever go away

but it will all be ok 

cause i don’t mind thinking of you

and so ill wait for the day

when this thing can finally be through

3rd Poetry post ~New Day~

"New Day"

(By Cameron Watkins)

Things are bad life seems rough

but I gotta try to stay looking tough

cause I know things are about to change

We’ve all done things we may regret

but please try not to worry or fret

the darkness may sleep in your soul

but now its time to take control 

You can’t let people keep you down

when you fall and hit the ground

it may seem nearly impossible

but you gotta always keep standing proud

You don’t have to face it on your own

because your never truly alone

open your heart and you will see

you will always have exactly what you need

The chains their gone, gone for good

the light floods in and brings its warmth

promise me none of this is gonna fade away

its finally time for a brand new day

A brand new day full of friends and warmth

keep them close and you will always feel this way

yes its finally time for a brand new day

Second Poetry Post ~One Day~

-One Day-

one day maybe i will be able to take off this mask

one day maybe i will be able to forget the past

i feel like i’m going nowhere

while everyone seems to be going somewhere

why can i not get over you

no matter how hard i try

i just cant seem to break through

why do i have to feel this way

why can i not forget that day

the day you made me run away

how did i let this start to control me

when will i finally be set free

my life has slowly slipped away from me

now i am a face that no one sees

missing you terribly everyday

and late at night i wonder just exactly what do i miss

i know you play a role in all of this

but could there be something more

something that might give me bliss

come on now you cant deny it

all of this from your eyes was such a riot

First poetry post! ~All I~

All I
You can bruise me you can use me

But I promise you, I will never turn away

I believe that somewhere deep inside of you

Sleeps the friend that I know will always come through 

So here I'll wait only just a call away

And if you should ever need me 

I'll come running anytime night or day

And maybe you will finally see

That all I want

Is for you to be in my life

That all I need

Is just to know that you  care for me

Do you see me standing here trying to reach out

Do you hear me straining not to shout

Please don't disappear and leave me full of doubt  

The reason that I'm voicing my fears

Are due to wounds from previous years

I was shattered in darkness

Being chocked with fear

Truly felt that no one was near

No one saw my shining tears

I was bruised and I was broken

I was used and I was choking

Didn't think I'd ever trust again 

I am holding on with all my might

putting all my trust into this not wanting to lose this fight

I am ready for this friendship to take flight
