My poems

I'll Try

Time heals all wounds, or so they say
But that doesn't mean there aren't scars on display;
And a single glance at them can bring it all back
Reminding you of the pain, again you're off track:

Trying to regain your composure and sanity
But it's tougher than you think, please don't be mad at me;
I hate who I am and who I've been
And at times I mourn the old me, the one with the sideways grin:

Now don't get me wrong, I still have that smile
But it's usually forced and fake, it hasn't been real in a while;
And I'm chipping away at my self imposed cell
Cause I  know going through life without love is my own private hell:

And you found the old me, like a child lost in a store
Saying you'll heal my heart, if he doesn't want it anymore;
I wipe the tears from my eyes and I sigh
And ask are you sure? I'm broken, damaged, and far from perfect.  And quickly add but for you I'll try
