I stole your smile.
It used to sit right between your lips, remember?

It tasted like home.
It used to fill my dark mornings, remember?

It looked like love.

It used to tell me why it loved me.
It used to crack your face in two.
It used to show up when I did.
But nowadays, I only ever see it go.

Of all the crimes that I've committed,
there is one I detest the most.
Because where once it sparked a fire
within me, now it's just another ghost.
The day after I told you.
Give me your hands dear
and ill show you a new world
a world of color
there is too much sadness in this place
so wipe the shame off your face
read a book, sing a song
you won't feel bad for very long
sadness is common happiness is rare
so be a gem shining fair
help turn coal into diamonds
because in time your wounds will mend
don't pity yourself
be content with yourself
Strengthen yourself!
you're the only one who can
I'm going through the trending poems and they're all about loss of love, heart break, and depression. let's turn that around. more positive poems result to more positive minds!
Do you know the worst feeling?
The one that you get when you're alone
You feel like a shell
Where hatred has grown

People don't seem to notice
How embarrassed you feel
But they do this on purpose
So they don't have to invite you in  

No song, book, or movie can describe
A true outsider
Because in the end they all have friends
In real life you're just a loner
Cutting below the hands

Why do you treat me as a second choice?
Is that all I am to you!?
Don't I have a voice?
Well, I'm done pretending that it's ok
Since you make me feel dark as night
When it is day
So I'm leaving you all
Without delay
So maybe, just once
I wont be afraid
Because the people worth chasing
Don't run away
rediscovering some old thing I wrote.
