Poem Title:
Poem
Its been a while since I saw you Like a dead, broken flower by my doorway Of all the times I had seen you I couldn’t recall you looking as miserable as you did that day Saying you lost everything you held dear The memory still haunts you You travelled across worlds and worlds just to be here Only to find nobody who wants you The one you loved left you for somebody else Pain never felt so agonising, it made your heart ache While you were too young to know what love was And too immature to endure heartbreak But ponder, my dear, about all the lessons they had taught The ecstasy they gave you; before they were gone It feels so much better to say thanks and let go Than to curse and hold on I wont cease the tears, I’d let them leak These tears will calm your soul, they’d leave you strong People cry, not because they’re weak but because they’ve been strong for too long But do get up and fight, not people, however, Its the weak who resort to violence Your greatest foe is your fear Your fear and your silence So speak even if your voice shakes Beginnings are always messy and it may take a while Even if they left, there’s always something to be thankful for Don’t just go, you too are somebody’s reason to smile If the oceans can calm themselves, so can you Everybody has a reason to be alive, and you do too Me? I’d continue to write what you feel but are unable to say Listen to my words, but do not look for me, look for you...
