Walking down the lonely street Remembering my broken dreams Step by step, I pace on home Again I am leaving alone Never forgetting all my crushed hopes Even I don’t know how I really cope Beginning to sprint as Tears threaten to fall I contort my hips to avoid hitting the wall Unable to contain My emotions all this pain My run becomes a contest against myself How much more do I have to do this till I am well? only way to stop my heart from crying out keep my head from pounding, eliminates any self doubt words run in lines all through out my mind “Gotta keep going, gotta keep tryin” voices of the ones I love, speak to my innermost core as the wind’s whispering song plays, I can forget before my feet step down in time to beating of my pulsing veins all my sorrow flies away on the breeze, there goes that pain just flickers of the memories of hurt are all that remain my eyes no longer glittering wet just as it starts to rain cascading drops of water as they splatter, speak "gotta keep going, gotta keep trying, don’t be weak" out of breath got to stop, coming back all my unease Maybe its time to finish it, just admit to my defeat reaching into my pocket, pulling out a silver tipped blade trying to convince me, that memories of me will fade and disappear of the face of the earth, BS voices in my soul sounding loud, a caress to my confused and ripped heart, I hear disgust and scorn in the voices, of my disbelief, that I am that forlorn I know I never could, complete that thought or stare My fingers open, the knife falls, people would care I stand up tall for the first time in awhile Found innocent in a drawn out trial I begin to race, down the street Relighting extinguished dreams Voices will whisper in my ear not again, no more Instead I hear the song of the ones I love in through my very core I walk up distantly familiar steps Confidence of a girl possessed by who was her all along Just needed help to be strong. |

Yet another amazing poem by you. I really liked it. Fantastic job. Enchor!! I really liked the stanza: "I know I never could, complete that thought or stare My fingers open, the knife falls, people would care I stand up tall for the first time in awhile Found innocent in a drawn out trial" For some reason that really draws me into the emotions running through the poem. Good work, hope to see lots more soon! |

"I know I never could, complete that thought or stare My fingers open, the knife falls, people would care I stand up tall for the first time in awhile Found innocent in a drawn out trial" This stanza of the poem drew me in. It relates so much to my own life. I was struck by it. Great job! |
