Chelsea Klotz Poem
This is the second Father's Day
Without my rock, my superman
The one man in this world who was
Supposed to be
Guaranteed not to hurt me
Guess what:
That's a lie
It hurt like hell when my parents fought
It hurt like hell when he got sick
It hurt like hell when he died
Now, it doesn't hurt
But that doesn't mean I'm OK
Just that, that part of me has gone numb
They say time heals all wounds
But I think they're wrong
Because, losing someone you thought
Was immortal
Hurts almost more than I can bear
But, I have to bear it
My mom is too caught up
With her new boyfriend
My boyfriend is too caught up
With his family
My best friend is out of town
And she wouldn't understand anyway
So, here I am, alone,
Trying to bear
The feeling of
Pain, hot, fiery, numbing pain
Seeping in through the giant
Crack
In my armor
And filling
The gigantic hole in my heart
Where my dad used to be

Chelsea Klotz Poem
My best friend
That is what
I call him
Within in his
Earshot
Privately,
I call him
Something
Much more
Intimate:
My Love
Constantly
Admiring
but always
From afar
Always dreaming,
Ever hoping
That one day
He would
Return my
Feelings.
But 'tis
A dream and nothing more

Chelsea Klotz Poem
Following me around
Always
Never harming me directly
Only through the ones I love
He has taken my Superman and my rock,
My happiness and my strength
My tears and my joy
Left as empty as a shell
As lifeless as a husk
Soul sucking
Strength draining
Spirit crushing
Last name Reaper,
First name Grim
He is always there,
Waiting to claim me as well

Chelsea Klotz Poem
I'm thinking of someone
Can you guess who?
I know you know
He makes me so happy
Makes me sappy
Makes my knees knock
My heart pound
And my stomach do flips
The world could be falling
Down around my ears
And as long as I can be
Safe in his arms
I'll go with a smile on my face
It boggles my mind
How your average
Boy next door
Could break down walls
That held strong for five years
In one hour
Do you understand it?
Cause God knows I don't
You know the most amazing thing?
He doesn't even have to try

Chelsea Klotz Poem
They say courage
Is doing something
Even though you're
Scared.
I say it's going on
Even when you
Know you can't
It's wearing red
When everyone
Else is wearing
Black.
Courage is also
The inner strength
To hold your head
Up high
When others try
To knock it down
But, above all, it's
Having the inner
Core of steel that
Allows you to
Continue on even
When others
Tell you that
You can't.
