Poems
Jan 2015
She Is Trying
"I'm fine" she tells you,
Tears rolling down her face.
Inside her heart is breaking.
Weeping on the inside,
Hiding the waterfall inside.
Pulling down her sleeves,
Wrapping her arms around her body,
Wishing for someone.
She calls back,
She's trying,
But doesn't know how much longer she can last.
Voicemail speaks,
Like a whisper of death.
She swallows it,
Accepting another restless night,
Crying herself into a sleep without peace,
Yet again...
