Katyjohnson - Hello Poetry

I should have said something but instead I smiled I smiled why did I smile “we’re done” you said I wanted to scream — my throat closed “What??” So I just watched as you walked away The silence filled the air — I just stood there The silence echoed — it’s all I could hear If I could go back, I wouldn’t

The things I almost said

I should have said something but instead I smiled I smiled why did I smile “we’re done” you said I wanted to scream — my throat closed “What??” So I just watched as you walked away The silence filled the air — I just stood there The silence echoed — it’s all I could hear If I could go back, I wouldn’t

I show up- But it never feels like I arrived I try so hard but it doesn’t seem like I can survive I feel so deprived You say I lied- I just denied You tried to hide- I’ve already eyed You say you don’t care Isn’t that implied We’re in the same room But you act unapplied I just comply

Would anyone notice? The space I take up — would that space be filled? Would anyone care? The emptiness I feel is as deep as a mile-deep hole. Would anyone notice the space where I would rot in my bed? Where everyone thought I was the “happy, funny friend”? Would anyone feel guilt? They should.

If I Disappear

Would anyone notice? The space I take up — would that space be filled? Would anyone care? The emptiness I feel is as deep as a mile-deep hole. Would anyone notice the space where I would rot in my bed? Where everyone thought I was the “happy, funny friend”? Would anyone feel guilt? They should.
