I once had a hope
Kendra Corner Mar 2017
I once had a hope

That would never become

A true wish of mine...



I once hoped

That I had the strength

To get back up

When I'm being pushed

when I am already down

On the ground

But I knew

That my hope

would never become

A true wish of mine



I once hoped

That I had the mental strength

For when I am sitting

On a peachy colored

Chair

I wouldn't break

The waterworks in my eyes

For people to label me

As weak

But I knew

That my hope

would never become

A true wish of mine



I once hoped

That my dear brother

Would come back

From that dark and

Wretched place

That humans call

Prison

So that the pang

In my chest

Would leave me

But I knew

That my hope

would never become

a true wish of mine

Do I send the letter
Kendra Corner Mar 2017
My hands shaking,

My breath heavy,

I seal the envelope shut.

My mind swimming with thoughts,

Sweat trickles down my neck.

My mind pondering,

"Do I send the letter?"

My heart beats like crazy,

Seeming like a million beats per second.

The main question of the day,

"Do I send the letter?"

Looking at the stark white envelope,

My mind explodes.

I'm anxious,

I can tell.

Fidgeting with my fingers,

I think of you and,

I now want to send it.

My mind clears,

The main question,

"Do I send the letter,"

Seems to be vanishing from my mind.

Cause all I can think is,

I want you to know that,

My life is horrible without you in it.

— The End —
