Poetry

Bowling Ball

Rolling down the alley I can feel the force you used
You pushed me away from where I wanted to be
The pain when I land is too much
I can feel the bruises being formed constantly

You don't know what it's like always getting hurt
Always getting pushed away and rejected for being you
Always being at the but of the jokes
Always being hurt

The strikes you give me hurt the most
They hurt me and other things
Why do you keep doing it?
Stop throwing and hitting me

The spare time I have hurts
I have time to think about what happens
I don't want time
Just use me to stop me from thinking

I don't think you understand who I really am
I have a purpose and you can't see it
I wish I could tell you but I can't
Just take time to get to know me

We'll have fun, and a lot of it
We'll get close, very close
You'll always want me, all of the time
You'll get addicted, and always come to me

Just let me be me and you can be you
You'll finally understand me and I'll understand you
Just don't push me away
Embrace me for who I truly am
