Poetry

writing words that the heart utters The thoughts the minds ponders The verses the mouth is too ashamed to mutter

EMPTY

I carry this thing in my heart

This empty thing that seems to hurt

I feel like am tied to something

Something that is holding me back

I feel the tears forming in the corner of my eyes

My hands going up to my cheeks

Wanting to rub the tears off but its doesn't stop

So I burry my head in my pillow

The salty ocean in my eyes drenching the pillowcase

I feel tired and lifeless.

I want to run in the middle of the night

Chasing nothing but my shadow

I want to run to the top of the mountains

Shout out everything to no one

I want the birds to hear me out

I want them to hover above me in the sky

Singing down to me in a way of comfort

I want to jump off the mountains and land in a place

A place where I can no longer feel empty

Putting my poetry out so that one day I can look back to it and see where I moved from.
