Ellie_C - Hello Poetry

How will I know When I'm free to go If I'm always thinking so Self belief Always low I can't seem to find a flow Oh no I can't begin to grow Was it the accident All those years ago? The dripping of melted snow Blood, blood, blood A doe The overflow The fear rushed through me A foe Family put in escrow A tear drop falls Whoa whoa whoa The life I must forgo An inch of life I bestow To the people that I owe Who's eyes glitter and glow Without saying a simple hello I knew that I'd plateau A love I'd never leave Although I'll always stay Like they said The loyalty of crow

Loyalty of Crow

How will I know When I'm free to go If I'm always thinking so Self belief Always low I can't seem to find a flow Oh no I can't begin to grow Was it the accident All those years ago? The dripping of melted snow Blood, blood, blood A doe The overflow The fear rushed through me A foe Family put in escrow A tear drop falls Whoa whoa whoa The life I must forgo An inch of life I bestow To the people that I owe Who's eyes glitter and glow Without saying a simple hello I knew that I'd plateau A love I'd never leave Although I'll always stay Like they said The loyalty of crow

Last night I saw a ghost It was raining The streets lit up I saw this ghost It stood right in front of me We exchanged meaningless glances I saw in it my own reflection Staring back at me A ghost of myself from before It haunts me Wherever I go Whoever I see It follows

Ghost

Last night I saw a ghost It was raining The streets lit up I saw this ghost It stood right in front of me We exchanged meaningless glances I saw in it my own reflection Staring back at me A ghost of myself from before It haunts me Wherever I go Whoever I see It follows

Heart breaks, stomach aches Throwing stones, breaking bones Living life, free of strife Moment makers, deal breakers Starving lately, give it to me straightly Life uprooted, final resort executed No one around, no more frowns Happy world, softly curled The end of being, the start of meaning

The End

Heart breaks, stomach aches Throwing stones, breaking bones Living life, free of strife Moment makers, deal breakers Starving lately, give it to me straightly Life uprooted, final resort executed No one around, no more frowns Happy world, softly curled The end of being, the start of meaning

Pitter Patter, Pitter Patter Man’s cries, children's laughter Leaving home, an infinite daughter Maybe if I cared more, loved harder If they didn't leave me, my mind altered Then I wouldn't be here, a complete disaster Crumbling like weak plaster I am here after all Waiting for that morning call Worrying about a forever fall Did I even have the gall? To throw that curve-ball? I’d never felt so small Though I won't let it be my downfall I'll come back again like rainfall I am not who I was I applied the gauze Even though I was the cause I never broke our laws They sank into my, their razor-sharp claws Straight to the bone, they gnawed Then, suddenly, they paused Started with their slow applause A joke of the court, I was So I told them no They packed in their big show Set off with precious cargo All they were was fake snow.
