Just like I knew it would.
Thank you Gravity, for never failing to bring me down.

Rest in Paradise
Cara Marshall May 2014
God blessed the soul that gave me the courage
To write what I feel
To feel
God blessed the soul that paved a way
For people like me
For the woman who taught
That there is no one like me
God blessed the soul that opened the minds
Of more than can count
The soul that opened the eyes
Of the blind who felt
But could not see the way
To this world
This world of emotion
passion
feel
God blessed the soul that paved the way
God named her Maya Angelou
And she paved the way
Rest in paradise, Ms. Maya Angelou. You gave hope with your words, and I can only try to do the same as well as you one day.

You said you'd come back, but
where are you now?
I can't help, but wait...

Why wait? (10w)
Cara Marshall May 2014
You say you want happiness.
What are you waiting for?
A question I find myself asking a lot.

Relief
Cara Marshall May 2014
It bugs me that the way things play out in my head are never how they go in reality. I guess that's just the reality of life. Things may not go according to plan, or anyway close. So, why do I keep planning? Why do I keep expecting? I guess that's just a habit that needs breaking. What's worse, constantly biting your nails or constantly biting  onto the hopes of a lost dream being found and coming true? They never do...for me at least. But I'll keep this brief. I just needed some..relief...
Things never go they way I plan or even hope they will, but I guess after bein hurt so many times it'll all make more sense.

Just Wondering
Cara Marshall Apr 2014
What am I doing?
What are you doing?
What are we doing?

If you don't plan on answering
Then promise me

I won't get hurt in the end
A lot on my mind, hopefully this will open things up

In the Rain (10w)
Cara Marshall Apr 2014
I'd stand in the rain
with no umbrella
for you.
All of this rain just makes me think about what I'd do to brighten your day.

Here
Cara Marshall Apr 2014
Wish that you were here
Or I were there
I just wish we were together
Anywhere
Feeling better knowing that patience is key.

I Miss You
Cara Marshall Apr 2014
I miss you
God, how I miss you
I've never missed anyone the way that
I miss you
Right now
Why can't you be here?
And I don't want to miss you
I know
There's no hope in yesterday
But only in tomorrow
Hope that you'll return
How naive of me to think you'll return
I know
It's just
I miss you
Its hard
Being without you, living without you
Anything without you
Is pain
Because part of me knows
You don't miss me
You're not writing poems describing just how bad
You miss me
But yet I still can't stop
Missing you
I guess after all that we've been through
I'm allowed to miss you
Sorry to be a bother
I just
Miss you
Dedicated to the one I miss- sorry for falling so hard...

— The End —
