LeaJPoems - Hello Poetry

I always assumed I wasn't capable to love Not romantically anyway Not one lover managed to stay Love seemed a film element I could only dream off So I faked my feelings for them all Silently building my defence wall Waiting for a brave knight to come along Who would finally be able to prove me wrong One day that knight actually appeared And helped me realise that loving someone isn't as scary as I feared Maybe that is because he wasn't a knight But a prisoner reaching for the light Yet in the end I wasn't his light, he was mine As it was I who sat in the dark thinking all was fine But searching for love in the dark is quite hard When you never open up your heart Thanks to him I've finally figured that out And I'm not afraid to say out loud That I am indescribably, madly in love with you And I'm convinced that you do too

My love story

I always assumed I wasn't capable to love Not romantically anyway Not one lover managed to stay Love seemed a film element I could only dream off So I faked my feelings for them all Silently building my defence wall Waiting for a brave knight to come along Who would finally be able to prove me wrong One day that knight actually appeared And helped me realise that loving someone isn't as scary as I feared Maybe that is because he wasn't a knight But a prisoner reaching for the light Yet in the end I wasn't his light, he was mine As it was I who sat in the dark thinking all was fine But searching for love in the dark is quite hard When you never open up your heart Thanks to him I've finally figured that out And I'm not afraid to say out loud That I am indescribably, madly in love with you And I'm convinced that you do too

Every time these four walls seem to be closing in You swing through them to give me oxygen Every time these four walls seem to be crashing in You hold them up to give me oxygen Every time these thoughts get darker You light a candle Every time these thoughts get harder You help me handle Every time I need you You are there for me Every time I call for you You come to hold me So this is my ‘thank you’ For everything you do Even when I am taking it to far You are always there to stitch my scar.

My 'thank you'

Every time these four walls seem to be closing in You swing through them to give me oxygen Every time these four walls seem to be crashing in You hold them up to give me oxygen Every time these thoughts get darker You light a candle Every time these thoughts get harder You help me handle Every time I need you You are there for me Every time I call for you You come to hold me So this is my ‘thank you’ For everything you do Even when I am taking it to far You are always there to stitch my scar.

When I cried You held me tight When I screamed You told me it would be alright When I cut You stitched my arm When I took You switched the pills so I wouldn’t do harm When I punched You held my hand When I kept silent You smiled because you’d understand.

Always

When I cried You held me tight When I screamed You told me it would be alright When I cut You stitched my arm When I took You switched the pills so I wouldn’t do harm When I punched You held my hand When I kept silent You smiled because you’d understand.

I am drowning in fear I am below the surface where no one can hear Everyone is up there While I’m down here No one seems to have a minute to spare To help me from drowning in fear I was drowning in fear Trying to hold my breath and keeping my mouth But no one saw me trying to keep the water out And no one saw that I drowned in fear.

Drowning

I am drowning in fear I am below the surface where no one can hear Everyone is up there While I’m down here No one seems to have a minute to spare To help me from drowning in fear I was drowning in fear Trying to hold my breath and keeping my mouth But no one saw me trying to keep the water out And no one saw that I drowned in fear.
