Matthew Forshay Poem
The day seems so long
When night falls you are all alone
You have had enough
Remember this is life so hang on
You must never let yourself go
You may act so meek
People from the past do not recognize you
You cannot be weak
Because all people hurt
You must be strong
And carry on in this life
Everybody feels pain sometimes
It feels like everything seems to go wrong
You must build the strength to move along
When your day is filled with depression
A feeling you never thought was possible
Alone you stare at your reflection
Sometimes feeling like letting go
It seems like it would be so much easier
You've had so much of this life
Stay strong
You must hold on
Remember that everyone feels strife
With no comfort in your friends
None of them remain
It hurts and there is no one left to talk to
Just remember that everything ends
Don't let your life go
It might hurt your mind
Thinking about what is and what was
Never waste your time contemplating
How it should be
Live life how it turned out
No one thought you could make it this far
You made them all see
Turning out to be a shining star
Don’t be afraid to shout
If you are on your own
It seems like you are alone
Remember what you could find
The days are very long
The nights are never kind
When you think you've had too much
Of this life to hang on
You must be strong
Stay sane and never lose touch
Through these days
Even if you may be wrong
It is hard to look at yourself at night
But you can never give up this fight

Matthew Forshay Poem
I woke in the middle of the night
Remembering so long ago
A man who I could not fight
All because he knew I was right
I’ve known him my whole life
I know the laws they hold us by
I held back back all my strife
Paralyzed by light that is in my mind
Try to speak reason
But his intellect I cannot find
Running at me in a show his treason
I just cannot see
Why is this man is doing this to me
Seeing in my eyes all the past pain
Thinking I had let these memories drain
Victimized why can’t you see
I’ve endured your deathless torture
Never showing any mercy
Never expecting this to be your future
Unarmed
Naked before me you stand
Shown to be wrong
Leaving only flesh and bone
Your eyes still piercing my soul
Reality feels as if being hit by a stone
Early segments of my life
Painful pieces of reality
Living with your twisted personality
You have shown many faces
Yet your soul remains faceless
Familiar things give way to strange
No mercy no reason just pain
Fatal
Sub-conscious control
Threshhold of pain unfolds
Yet
Who am I to judge thy grace
Awaken
See what has seen
This past is my reality and I am shaken
Blind my eyes, I cannot see
What has been done to me
In my mind is only pain
Remembering the memories that I drained

Matthew Forshay Poem
Mom staying with me during my darkest hour.
Earthly angel and mother you were.
Memories that I have of you will never leave me.
Other mothers would have given up but you always remained.
Rebellious son I was but you never gave up on me.
You were always there for and with me.

Matthew Forshay Poem
Look to this current day
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is but a vision
But the today well lived will make
yesterday a dream of happiness
And tomorrow a vision of hope
