You can't even imagine
Right now what I'm going through
You can't even see
Half the things
I'm hiding from you
I force myself to smile
I tell myself I'm fine
I force myself to say
"Hello. I'm great. How are you dear, how is life?"
I can see through your eyes your having a rough time
I push my own feelings aside
And encourage you to spill yours out.
I can feel your heartache
I can help you to heal
I love doing that
Hey. :)
But that's because I know what's it like not having anyone
Who could understand
Or would even want to try
I force myself to smile
I tell myself I'm fine
Better days are coming
Why not help this hurting heart first, see the light
So I sit there, hurting along with you
Understanding everything you say
And wondering there should be something I could do
For you,
For you.
Not realizing that I have done enough,
Just sit'en here hurting with you
Listening to what you got to say
Meant the world to you.
Now you feel better
The clouds have gone
You see the light.
And some how, a little, I, do, too.
I force myself to smile
I tell myself I'm fine
Better days are coming.
I know I'll be alright.
Why not help this hurting heart see the light.
"Hello. I'm great. How are you dear, how is life?"

Keep in mind. You are not alone. You're not the only one hurting.
Be kind you never know what one is going through. Maybe that person who seems angry all the time was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer and has maybe six months to live, maybe that person who isn't talking lost his parents, wife or child and is trying to keep himself from losing it and falling apart, maybe that 14 year old girl who is pregnant got *****, maybe that overweigh boy has health issues.. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. People everywhere are fighting battles no one knows about. So be kind smile at a stranger, say hi to some one you haven't talked to in a while. Forgive who hurt you. Life is to short to be upset and feel alone.

There is a shadow,
there is a whisper
there is the hint
of something else.

the nighttime screams
in my eardrums
repeating songs
where I came undone.

and who I used to be
just isn't me
and everything is changing,
and maybe that's good.

I am glad to be
part of you
I am glad to be
yours

but I live in the space between
meant to be
and reality
so find me
buried in old songs
and the broken spine
of your favorite book.

I am the sweetest, warmest sip
of your tea,
and I am the the best bite
of your favorite food.

I am simple human pleasures
like the smell of the rain,
or vague, stretching pain.

I am looking deep within your eyes
and finding golden ore
among churning blue skies.

you are the lightning that fills my veins
and I am the light
growing at the end of your tunnel.
Cravings are the worst. i just want pizza pr a turkey sandwich. what's wrong with me?!
This isn't poetry,
Only words you've said to me,
This isn't poetry,
But things that hurt me,
This isn't poetry,
But pain that rhymes to my piece,
This isn't poetry,
Only your sweet goodbye kiss...
#Goodbye
As I lay beside
You I pray
Beside you
Holding you tight
Whispering
For my heart
To keep
Your truly one
In a million
I truly love you
Can I truly keep you
She smiled kissed
Me and whispered
Yes you can I love you two.

You say you miss me
And I smile
But somehow
It's like you telling me
It's a beautiful sunny day
And me opening the window
To find only rain.
