I don’t want to have to try
When I’m around you
Love is about being yourself
And I’m not myself around you
I have to watch what I say
And make sure I don’t show my true feelings
Because really I’m trapped inside
And I can’t breathe.
Before you left
It was the hardest time in my life
I would cry myself to sleep at night
Through the endless months of strife
Now that you are gone
I can finally be done
With all the fake feelings and lies
I can breathe and my soul can fly
I can’t forget
The times I truly loved you
And a part of me loves you now
But there is more than just love inside
I hate you in so many ways
I love you on certain days
I’m happy without you
I free to be myself and live my life
This poem is about my parents' divorce. It pretty much is about how when my parents were together it was worse than when my dad moved out. I don't speak to him now because of what happened and he has joint custody for my younger sister so I still have to see him and I think about him so enjoy.
