Just let it go
When after doing your best nothing comes up,
Let it flow
When after telling yourself it's okay
But still you feel bitter deep inside.

Call it a day and surrender,
Tomorrow's another sunrise
Maybe you'll do better;
Everyone has a time to call their own,
Surely yours is about to come;

Just have a vigilant, hardworking heart
And then you'll find find it in no time.
first poem i posted publicly :)
Your mind, a stubborn child
Thoughts kept single file
So you force a trial size smile
To erase regrets that go on for miles
A struggle to regain power
Your heart, a delicate flower
Beats silent with repose
A passionate rose
Draped in thorn
Truth, naked, as the day you were born
A late bloomer at best
Thick skin
A bullet proof vest
Your words, carefully crafted
A tongue like a clever assassin
Sarcastic responses
A witty subconscious
Day dreaming of white picket
When your in between thoughts on the fence
I’ve put the ball in your court
But *the only game your playing is defense
She’s got too many issues
Can’t find the time
To subscribe to mine
Guilty of a crime
They call “loyalty”
But I’ve done far worse
Like take responsibility
And show you my integrity
I suppose that means
The bitter things in life are free
In the time it takes to blink
We bottle up memories
Just to pour them down the sink
No time for cheers
When your
Wise beyond years
Knowing the difference between
Conquering fears
And lending open ears
You were afraid
I was sincere
She said “We’re movin’ too fast”
I said “I’ll throw it in low gear”
But you wanted us in park
Only time to see me after dark
Stuck between chapters with no bookmark
She keeps our worlds apart
A beauty mark
Scars my heart  
You left no answers
Just question marks
