Change

Another poem from when I was 16. Change scared me back then. It still does, but not as much. But enjoy. 


Change

Empty smiles

Hollow laughs

A fake attempt

At happiness.

When I’m alone

Hopelessness ensues

And I'm always crying

Not because I miss you

Not because I'm alone

Because every smile

You turn my way

Makes me feel alone.

You pretend you are okay

You pretend nothings wrong

But every time I talk to you

I only wish

Things could go back

To how they were before.

When we would walk hand and hand.

And when you smiled

Everything seemed alright

But now

I can feel it.

Something feels wrong

And there's nothing I can do.

Can You Hear Me Out There?

I wrote this at 16 after the summer I had lost all of my close friends and I felt very alone. As you can tell I enjoy depressing poetry. 


Can You Hear Me Out There? 

I gaze through the clouds
Unable to see
I am broken and befreft
Don't you feel
That I yearn for something I'll never have?
Don't you see
That I do not try.
My life is a series of walls
And I am trapped between.
It is a vicious cycle of pain
And there is nothing more.
Breath life into me again
Make it all go away
Will I be myself again?

Certainty

Hey. I wrote this last night :D So here is something new for all of you. I really want to know what you all think because this is the first free form poem I have written in a while. 


Enjoy 


Certainty

A world touched by no one

A place unknown

Even to those who think they do.

A blank canvas

Waiting for the paint.

A blank page

Waiting for the words.

Possibilities are endless

And yet…

Fear hold you back

Struggling to explain why

That first step is the hardest one.

That leap of faith

Which few will ever make

Is scarier than the certainty

Of a timeless demise.
