Confused
Caitlin Nov 2014
I hate that I'm invisible.
How do I play such a big part in everyone's life..
Yet no one notices me??

Writing
Caitlin Sep 2015
I haven't written anything it seems in  years,
No thoughts or ideas have popped into my mind.
I have a blank slate of a brain....

Good Friday
Caitlin Apr 2015
What's so good about it?
More than two thousand years ago,
Today was the day that an innocent man was crucified.
Jesus Christ,
The Savior of the world.
He was crucified,
How was this "Good"?
He was perfect, The Son of God.
Prince of Peace, The right hand of God.
How can Jesus being crucified, be "Good"?
I'll tell you why,
He came to die for our sins, he was the purest sacrifice.
And without Him, we would never be able to pay for our sins; resulting with forever death.
Without Him, we would never reach God, for there would always be a gap between us- Sin.
That is why it is Good Friday,
Because Jesus knew the price he would have to pay, in order for the rest of us to live, He must die,
Happy Good Friday!

Pain
Caitlin Sep 2015
Is this truly what pain feels like?
I don't need a razor,
You are the blade against my skin.
I don't need a savior,
I'm too far in this hell hole that I created,
I don't need advice,
I know what I'm doing, most of the time.
I don't need this pain,
You're my pain.
I never asked for this.
Is this what true pain feels like?
An already broken heart,
Being shattered again?
And again?
A world that I've worked so hard to bulid around me?
Coming down in pieces?
My walls, in parts and torn,
Being crumbled to dust?
Is this what pain is??

Pain
Caitlin May 2016
I don't want to get hurt again.
I don't want to be hurt.
It's a feeling of emptiness.
It's a waiting game.
I hate it.
You started our conversations,
But now I seem to be more invested in them.
I'm the one catching feelings,
And what's even worse,
You don't even know.

Talking..
Caitlin Apr 2016
Everyday, for a long time.
Good mornings and goodnights.
Time zones and distance.
Terrible connection and difficult schedules.

Haven't talked in two days,
Feel like I lost a part of my soul.
Especially when I need you the most.
I need you...

Why does everything seem to happen right at the beginning of something?
Although I suppose that you cant have a beginning of a book, without something happening, or at the beginning of a new chapter.
I just wish sometimes things would slow down, or just stop all together.
Second semester hasn't really even started and I've already had my absolute worst day ever..
But things are semi looking up, I think.

Fall in Love
Caitlin May 2014
I want to fall I love
I want to love  someone's quirkiness
For someone to love mine
I want to be able to hug him all the time
Him to hug me- and never let go
I want to adore his smile
And him mine
To have him give me that look
that melts my insides
I want to melt his,with my gaze

I want a fairytale.
I long for a happy ending

*Can someone give that to me?

Grain of sand (JoeCole)
Caitlin Sep 2014
If I had a grain of sand
For every time I thought of you,
I'd fill up the beaches of Flordia.

If I had a grain of sand,
For every time I wanted to speak to you,
I'd have an entire continent.

If I had one for every time,
Something reminded me of you,
I have to find a new planet to keep sand on.

If I had a grain of sand....

Happy.......

I was happy,
Then it all came crumbling down around me...
Caitlin Jun 2014
I didn't hate you.
I didn't agree with you on everything, however.
I wish that I had spoken up.
I hope that you are living a good life.
I wish that we were closer friends instead of enemies.
I wish you gave me a second chance.
I wish that you encouraged me more.
I wish that you at least told me something more than the one worded answers to all of my questions.
I wish……

To Fall In Love With A Poet
Caitlin Jan 2015
It's actually not hard to do.
You grin at the way her hands are shaking to get tot a pen and paper.
You think is adorable how she only uses one certain type of pen, and only pen- no pencil for this writer.
You hate to see her at a loss for words because she always has words, even when everything else fails her.
You want to be the only one to leave her speechless
and the only one to make her write like mad.
You stick around long enough and you notice that she writes in the same pen that she uses to write poem, she uses to write on herself, different word and phrases she wants to remember.
You love the way her eyes light up when she comes up with the perfect ten words to describe something.
You think that she is the one who dreams and writes all that she remembers.

A warning for you, if you do fall in love wit a poet,
Remember that she is human, just like you.
Remember that she is writing for a reason.
Remember that if you break her heart,
You could, possibly break the very part of her that writes and it could Be days or weeks or months before she starts to write again.
And she will write only love and heartbreak poems,
Not the ones you remember about the trees or clouds or how your eyes get a gleam in them when you smile.

Just don't break her heart.

New year
Caitlin Jan 2016
As I enter into 2016, I find myself wondering.
Where will this year take me?
Where will I be lead to go?
For college? For life?
And as I'm wondering I can't help but smile,
Because the future is full of mysteries;
But I'm talking it one day at a time.

Singing
Caitlin Feb 2014
I love to sing
And that's not a bad thing because
I have my mothers voice
I live because of singing
I have had moments in my life
When all I  couldn't function
Without music ringing from my throat
Many people have told me that I sing well
And I take it to heart
I enjoy bring people pleasure
Though my music

The End
Caitlin Jan 2014
The end is always tougher than anyone thinks
It often takes longer than you think to get over

And the memories are always there
At night,  in those moments before sleep
In every rehearsal, when you can't look to your left and ask for help.
When you realize your on your own
When you feel yourself falling apart

That is the ending of one story
And the beginning of another
335 · Jun 2014
Words
Caitlin Jun 2014
There is so much to say
That I'll never be able to get past my lips

There is so much in my heart
That I wish you knew

There is so much
That I feel I will break if I don't let it out somehow.

333 · Jan 2019
I Lo....
Caitlin Jan 2019
There are words I want to say
But I don’t want to scare you away.
We’ve known each other forever
I don’t want to lose you, No never
Even though we are just friends
Three words can change us dramatically
It’s funny, because I use those word with my other friends, but with you it’s different.
Should I take a chance?
G-  it’s true, I do. Maybe you’ll see this soon. Maybe not. But I love you. 1/17/2019

So Today I Told You..

He didn't really react..

Because
Caitlin Jul 2014
Because I am lonely, it means hiding certain things

Because I am kind, it means putting my own problems away

Because I am caring, it means not letting go- no matter  what

Because sometimes I can be mad, it means having a laughter break

Because I can be sad, it means I search for a shoulder to cry on

Because of being in love, it may mean that that I focus on the good and not the bad

Because I may be crazy, it means having people love me for the way I am.

Because I am me

To: ... From:
Caitlin Dec 2014
There are many gifts wrapped
underneath my tree this year.
Many of them, are either for me,
Or from me.
But this Christmas, and every other Christmas,
Is more than just gifts and tress
Stockings and lights.
It's more than just Christmas lists
And Christmas dinner.

It's family and joy,
Hugs and kisses,
Love and kindness,
It's the birth of a savior,
The  light of the world.

Merry Christmas!!
I hope it's a good one!

You..
Caitlin Aug 2014
I see you in my dreams
You haunt me every waking moment

I imagine what you'd say if you were here
That we'd laugh about the same things

Make jokes like we used to
Get nothing accomplished like we used to

I imagine you walking in the door
And th  butterflies that erupt in my stomach

Every feeling that we ever encountered
Every advice you ever gave

Oh, how I wish you were here.

Set me free?
What if I long for freedom,
Yet and comfortable where I am?
In this prison of mine,
That I created?

Set me free?
I'm more dangerous out there than I am in here.
I'm dangerous to myself.
Can't you see?

You can't set me free.
My prison is myself.
I'm locked in with myself.
Set me free?

Do you know how to set me free?

Ask

Ask
If your were to ask me what I value most in life,
I'd tell you it's not the possessions or the clothes I have,
It's not the talent or passion for music,
It's not even my dearest friends that I value most.
It's me.
I value me.
I have a right to,
However I would take a bullet for you.
So I don't value me that much..

I never gave him enough credit.

Advance me, to help me

And what did I do?

I was stubborn

And now He's gone.

To hear is a great ability.
Some people can't.
Then there are people who can hear when you aren't talking.
Those are the people who care.
How I wish that person was here today.
I really needed you.
