So I wrote this actually I recollected the famous poets work and came up with this... Mine kind of was the best😎
Oh had o found relief
Spinning in a barrel down a slope
Thus mixing my madness
Thus provoking me to write this
Write this lie I promised everyone
But my barrel didn't lie to me
For my madness denied the truth
I don't know what I thought
But it wasn't this
It wasn't this dip dive
Nor this rollercoaster of emotions
You cast such a long shadow
Such a long shadow that even
Though you are a thousand miles away
People see it when they look in my eyes
I pull pain from my veins
And mould it into words
Forgeting and Forgeting
Our song keeps playing
Its haunted just like me
I don't want to hear it
But I press on the repeat
And play it again and again
People dance and laugh to it
Like they haven't been pierced
Aren't sinking, sinking and sinking
My hand brushes the button.
If I could push it off
I could.
The sun is setting and someone
Asks me why I miss you
Now is not the time
I want to say.
Not while the sun is bleeding
Pinks and reds and oranges
Not while my heart is in my eyes
There are knots
In my stomach again.
And I need you I've been spun in circles
But an only dizzy when I walk away from you
Somebody complimented the way I can touch
My toes and I did not tell that.
It was you who taught me how to reach
I was told if I like someone I tell them
If I miss someone I tell them
If I love someone I show it
Life is too short to keep your feelings inside
So I decided to take a shot
Do you see the way my world lights up for you?.
But nothing hurts me more than the things you never said.
At what cost I should have asked
But damn it I did!
Now am lost no one knows it
They don't know it is like this
Like a maze with no exist
Coz you put me at the center
And left me in utter darkness
Your rejection in my ears
They don't know its like this
Am deeply hurt by the fact that you would
Never ever consider being with me
That there was nothing I could have done
Nothing about me would have been enough
That's hurtful you know.
To be good enough to love
But
Not good enough to be with
When I met you it was a fairytale
The way my eyes would lit up when you call my name
When my heart would flip and my mind races when I see you
My breath would come in hitches whenever you smiled
I build my castles and towers in this
You get what you focus on
So focus on what you want
This I did; but now
These sparks
These flickers
You lit me, but forgot to put me out
You became the villain in my love story
I was never afraid to say what I feel
I didn't need approval of anyone not even you
I said I want only you, you said am crazy
I knew it wasn't mine but for a moment
Just a moment I wished it was
You know what's funny
In my dreams you actually love me back
Well that's the deal I know you love it
Vote my people. Nawapenda😍😍. Also I appreciate all the poets whom I used their work to create this amazing piece
