As surely as a raindrop will fall
On a stormy day
My words will fail me
Once again

Her eyes told a story
That you failed to read
So infatuated
With ******* her body
You forgot
To uncover her mind

Oh blissful slumber
Please whisk me away
Take me to a place
With cotton candy clouds
So I can finally be freed
From this uneasiness
Keeping me awake

She needed someone to love her
When she couldn’t love herself
Someone to hold her
When she couldn’t hold on any longer
Someone to make her laugh
When she couldn’t bear to smile
Someone to be a positive light
In her twisted dark thoughts

I am always going to disappoint someone
But from now on it won’t be me

She didn’t want to be saved
She wanted to feel safe
While she saved herself

She wasn’t waiting
for a knight in shining armor
She fought her own demons

She didn’t expect to be treated
Like a princess
She wanted to be respected like a queen

Her happiness and sadness
Were altogether fleeting
She found solace in writing

One whom is sad
Cannot write about happiness
One whom is happy
Cannot write about sadness

Wandering somewhere
in the moments between
She wrote her best poems
