Hey guys,
So this poem is dedicated to Tina,
because she's always there for me and supports me no matter what.
She understands me through and through
and knows how to make me smile, and cry, and scream
(lol thats what she said.... WATERBEEEEEDDDD).
I loves mys Tinas so muchs <3 :3
Enjoy
Lately
Lately,
When I open my window,
And look outside,
The birds aren't singing anymore.
Lately,
I try to smile,
My cheeks don't hurt,
Like they always used to.
Lately,
When I stare at the stars,
And realise I'm in Africa,
I don't know who I am anymore.
Lately,
Just as everyone,
Starts to tell me I ooze with confidence,
I have lost myself and don't know where to look.
Lately,
When I walk into a room,
I forget why I'm there and even,
Why I'm alive, and leave.
Lately,
Everytime I see your face,
I want the words to steam,
from my mouth, but I'm scared they will hear.
Lately,
When the sky is cloudy,
I sit in the bathtub and listen,
Listen to the silence that it brings to the earth.
Lately,
When I've started listening,
To the birds and the sky and the trees,
I need more noise, too keep me from...
Lately,
I wish for more noise in this world,
Africa may sound loud from over there,
But I don't want to listen to myself.
Lately,
When my thoughts,
Aren't helping me in anyway,
then reveal my deepest cuts and scars.
Lately,
When I wish to touch,
your face, and look you in the eyes,
I can't find the memories to replace the pain.
Lately,
I feel I'm not worthy,
Of all your love and comfort,
To keep me from the tears and pain.
Lately,
I wonder if I'll feel like this the rest of my life.
Lately,
I miss you.
Lately,
I miss me too.
