Iza Garcia Alonso Poet Free verse

A Year Has Past

Nothing beats the summer breeze 
The memories of the ones who leave 
Lotus flowers smile at me
Saying this will pass, you’ll come to see 
Walking in a forest with my shoes in my bag 
Wishing I were leaving the town that I have 
The year is almost over, and I’m still lying on the grass
The year is almost over, and I still step on broken glass 
Pop another Valium
To soothe the attacks 
My body’s stiff and stagnant 
But now it’s turning back 
I just want my mama 
She levels out the sad 
Wanna go back home 
I miss what I had
I miss what hurt me last
My bedroom feels so rotten 
As I lay on my stomach 
I pray, I pray 
For another 
Just another solemn day 
Oh, how I pray 
For the world to spare some change 
Please, lord bless my name 

Question my camaraderie
Yes, I’m still attached 
My mind is always cluttered 
Still thinking of the past 
I just want some stability 
It lets me stay intact 
Wanna go back home 
I miss what I had 
I often fantasize about the year
That left me cracked 
Left me bawling tears
Getting high every day 
Beach trips and smoking 
Some ty friends
Who urged me to stay that way
It was nice while it lasted 
Oh so fantastic 
I thought everything would be okay 
Everything will be okay 
That’s what I say 
That everything will be okay 
That’s what I say 
Now that I’m losing my faith
