kat-mathews - Hello Poetry

Today I learned the truth The truth you always told me I was blinded by my feelings Putting you up on a pedestal I allowed myself to wallow in pity But I never realized I was the one at fault See I put myself here I chose this path The problems and mistakes will always make their appearances But I pray I can overcome For while the truth is necessary It’s just one step of the process And while I’ve already accepted I still must overcome This journey will be a long one And I pray I last But I’m not worried Because I’ve never let myself down like this And I won’t do it again

The holes gotten deeper And I’ve dug harder And you’ve watched me You’ve watched me get swallowed up. My breaths gotten ragged And I’m still digging And you’re still watching. It’s like a race Except it ends in one of us stopping. Will my breath stop? Or will you stop me?

Dirt

The holes gotten deeper And I’ve dug harder And you’ve watched me You’ve watched me get swallowed up. My breaths gotten ragged And I’m still digging And you’re still watching. It’s like a race Except it ends in one of us stopping. Will my breath stop? Or will you stop me?

My heads cloudy, My thoughts up in the atmosphere. I can’t think clearly, I can barely breathe. My body is slowly shutting down, I can feel it in my bones. I take a step and my bones begin to creak. My body is an old home, Torn down for the new. My thoughts, the ceiling above my head, Crashes to the ground. With it, all that is left of me. I am my own home and now my home is gone. “I” am gone.

Gone

My heads cloudy, My thoughts up in the atmosphere. I can’t think clearly, I can barely breathe. My body is slowly shutting down, I can feel it in my bones. I take a step and my bones begin to creak. My body is an old home, Torn down for the new. My thoughts, the ceiling above my head, Crashes to the ground. With it, all that is left of me. I am my own home and now my home is gone. “I” am gone.

One year from now I'll be receiving my future One year from now I'll leave whatever I once knew for the great unknown One year from now I'll be screaming for joy or crying in anguish One year from now only one word, "congratulations", will matter to me One year from now I'll be packing up my life One year from now I'll be moving out One year from now my future will be decided

One year from now I'll be receiving my future One year from now I'll leave whatever I once knew for the great unknown One year from now I'll be screaming for joy or crying in anguish One year from now only one word, "congratulations", will matter to me One year from now I'll be packing up my life One year from now I'll be moving out One year from now my future will be decided

Every night I lay awake with my thoughts Everything racing through my mind There's no end in sight I'm a prisoner of my own brain The never ending twists and turns keeping me in its cage I can't escape myself And there's no one else to blame but me

Prisoner

I've let my walls down Only to have it resurrected because of you I came here in hopes of a brighter future Only to find so much darkness I told you truths no one believed thinking you'd understand and accept Rather than deny and pretend it was fake I took your betrayal and hoped you would come to see the truth But you stayed in denial, forcing me to join you along the way I let you through my walls Hoping you'd help me rebuild my surrendered soul but you left me even more broken I can only rebuild my walls Because I alone may never be able to fix what's inside these walls

I'm awake, Thoughts of you Running through my mind. You're like a dancer Pirouetting and twirling Gracefully destroying my heart Your gaze Penetrating my being A laser cutting through my soul I don't know how to deal with you anymore There's no escaping you You're everywhere My thoughts are scrambled With your face popping up in between math equations I can't sleep Wondering if you're awake feeling the same way I do But I know That you're gone now And there's no getting you back So I must move on And wish you happiness from afar

Move on

Hard as nails Soft as a teddy bear Two sides that two different people see I'm hard and mean to everyone Rough rude and rigid Never a sweet word uttered But if you know me Then you'll know that it's just my exterior I rust like any other nail Melt me with words and I'll pool at your feet Soft and gooey I'm gone in a whirl of liquid emotion I'm not truly rough and rigid I'm not stiff and severe I'm a sarcastic pool of mush that can't figure out her feelings You'd know that if you truly knew me But who actually does?
