Sharing a few poems with you that I wrote about my past. So much has changed since then, that I often feel like it was another life. Truth that there is light beyond the darkness.
I Can’t Speak
My throat is tight.
It feels like like it is closing.
The pain is unbearable.
I try to speak,
but but nothing comes.
I feel helpless.
I feel like it’s my fault.
Eventually I Leave
I finally get the nerve to tell you,
and you criticize me.
I want to be honest with you,
but for some reason,
you won’t accept all of me.
We fight.
You fall silent for days.
When I try to leave, you love me again.
I’m so confused.
Will this cycle ever end?
Do I stay or go?
Will I ever find someone else?
Will someone ever love me?
Eventually I leave.
That’s How it Goes Sometimes
We were in love.
You were young,
but I was younger.
We thought it was the right thing to do.
But we were fooling ourselves.
I wish I had learned more from our time together.
Instead history repeated.
But that’s how it goes sometimes.
