Why do I feel like death is the only one listening The reaper understands why I feel so different Locked in my mind, these thoughts are my prison Isolation, dark places, is what I’ve been living in I’ve survived by outrunning these pesky demons My soul is worn, dragging and barely fitting I’m trying to put one foot in front of the other But these demons catching up are only getting heavier Carry on, watch me go, it’s easier to watch then to help those that suffer alone My whole life I’ve envisioned being someone new Finding love, finding home, intimacy and comfort Seeing who I was and never feeling bothered Take a look inside and tell me what you see A broken woman or someone asking to be freed I’m trying to find myself out in the world I’ve discovered people here aren’t what they seem. It’s not what can I do, it’s what can you do for me. Carry on, watch me go, it’s easier to watch then to help those that suffer alone Day after day, I am finding it harder to believe In happiness, love and finding that inner peace What a joke to think any of that was written for me I’m just a numbered statistic made in a machine I should known, watching my family history What a life it is, that I was always meant to lead Cursed at birth, see my momma always said Women like us never find those happy endings No peace for us to rest our heads Carry on, watch me go, it’s easier to watch then to help those that suffer alone.

poet crush (poem)
Tell me. Speak it in your sliding brick nuance. I am needy in needing the swatch fan of textures. Tell me and I will offer my whole self in turn. I will give you poetry that knocks three times when it wants you. I will explore all the ways that a word can be sprawled, give you things that will hum... read more
