Poems

Mountains

You make scream

Like a banshee wails for the dead

It's almost comical the way I feel for you

You hate me so, but that makes me love you more

The shame I feel is intense

Almost like getting struck by lightning

I know it's wrong I know it'll kill me, but

I can't help but pursue you

You make me feel empty almost dead

Someone help me

Tell me why I love him so?

Help me understand why the love I feel is so strong

He'll never love me back, but I can't stop

I stand atop this mountain

I am clothed in truth, bathed in forgiveness

So tell me why I want to jump down

Let things go and never look back

Let this pain escape me

I want to escape into another world

Another place,

But alas I can not

For I love him too much to just stop

So I have spoke my tale to be told as bedtime stories to your young

Hopefully you will never forget the anguish I felt

Until we meet again

I stop only to say goodnight....
