It's at the end of the day
When you've spent hours
Telling people you're fine
That you have a plan
That's when the music ends
And the car starts
And you let go
And the sobs come out
And the cold wind
Whips the colder tears against your face
Like a never ending wave
And your heart beats faster
And you remember
That no one knows
They don't know
How broken you really are

Sometimes I feel
Like I don't
Belong here
Like
I left something behind
And I'm lost without it

I've got nothing left but crying
Been feeling like I'm dying
My eyes no longer drying
So I'll continue lying

So I hide behind my smile
And bode silent for awhile
And hope desperately this trial
Will pass versatile

Overhead as I hide
Crucified-Cast aside
Mystified and terrified
Of loneliness ahead

I was here
I've been there
Now I don't
Fit anywhere
Parts of me
Are left behind
Bits of me
I cannot find
Did I think
They would stay
And not move on
When I'm away
I'm stuck between
Two different lives
And now again
I can't decide
I've been in once place for 2 years and now moved back to my home town. Everyone here has moved on from having me in their lives, and I can't help thinking about how soon the people I left behind will do the same. I'm stuck between two lives. I just feel like I don't belong anywhere anymore.

Often times
Parts of us
Need to be snipped off
Discarded
So that we can grow
And bloom
More
With each withered leaf
Each yellow branch
Each broken extension
Gives another place
Reserved for growth
You will learn
And evolve
And reach
To bigger things
All you have to do
Is trim away

Hello
   "Sorry, I've been busy"
I know
   You've got no time for me
And oh
   How your absence hurts me
"Okay"
   "It's fine! Don't even worry!"

You break
   My heart when you don't text me
I know
   If I don't, you'll forget me
I see
   That you don't really love me
But god
   How you have destroyed me
Marisa Lu Makil Jul 2020
This is a time
Of much uncertainty
But we can look back
On
The
Goodness of the Lord and wonder
Why did
We ever doubt?
