sample of my poetry

Slapped by Reality

I plow on the run from idiocy and silly memories
My heartbeat thunders through my traveling mind
Trying to forget everything I might leave behind
Warm water beads slowly down my face
I highly doubt I will ever win this race

You enter my head, and then my thoughts turn black
At least one part of me knows I’ll never get you back
I come to stop in place and let depression sink in
Who knew moving forward was such a deadly sin?

I grab my wrist and rip my fragile skin deep
Then I awake to realize I’m sobbing in my sleep
Sitting up straight and then walking to shut the door
I notice something I wouldn’t think of before

Hopeless tears should not be shed by misconceptions
Though I stop to wonder about my past frustrations
I put aside the urge to hold you close to me
Still contemplating on ways to set myself free



The question asked was as simple as can be
Did you ever really care about me?
I shudder before I knew the answer coming
Maybe I should just stick to pointless running

Of course that’s not the problem at all
Thinking of just walking around to stall
I hate the way I effortlessly care about you
Did you ever feel the same way I do?

No you didn’t, I knew you never would all along
There is still one more thing I just can’t place on my tongue
Am I just not the one, or am I on the waiting list?
I should probably stop now before I get really pissed

Even so, I’ve become a bit happier now
I can wait for that special someone to drop into town
Call me inpatient, but that’s how I have always had my mind
So until then, I’ll just stay here, making up rhymes


[[i am aware that the last two stanzas arnt the greatest]]
