Poem Title:
Poem
Old friends remind me of my old lifes Different times in the years past With different stories and different laughs But with each chapter I leave them fighting in the past Thinking moving on is leaving everything behind Realizing I can't bring them all with me So I bring none of them Reliving old dreams when our paths cross And wondering why I don't know you anymore You pretend like we are the same But I can't contact to a life I swore to never live again And I'm not the same person that held you when you cried I'm not the girl that left you behind I've changed to many times to count And one day you will know you can't count on me So I come to the place that holds most of my lives Walking around surrounded by ghost in this desolate town I smile and wave to my past and pretend I remember it But this isn't going to work This isn't what the world taught me So I run away Haunted by memories and broken dreams Friendships come and go. One thing stays the same Me running from the comfort of the past Yelling I can't live like this Six months is my limit Six months to pretend to be fixed But in the end it's me running away with a suit case For everything I wanted in those months was ruined so I start new Instead of trying to fix a broken heart with industrial super glue I start over with something new The only problem is the scares are still there The brakes haven’t heeled And because I have never learned the right lesson from my past I'm forced to relive it Until I find the answer I always am searching for Or it destroys me like countless times before
