Knowing my head’s telling me lies But my throat hurts as it swallows Thoughts buzzing ‘round like fireflies While underneath the willows
From the rising of the sun To the sunset during summer It’s hard to forget someone That gave you so much to remember
Cannot sleep in this empty bed Unsure if I’m gonna cope Many colorful shapes in my head Like an everlasting kaleidoscope
Again seeing you in my cavity When you wrote an address that night That wasn’t just a dream to me I’m gonna hyperventilate
Figuring out what happened to you Why our talks ended so sudden Still wanting to find the truth Two years with completely nothing
It’s easier to move on I know But you have to understand Everyone said to just let go I guess I was a one-man band
I remember when I saw her face When I heard her say my name She wasn’t just another grace I felt her make me sane
Delusion they call it, sensing their hate I know I saw you in every dream Hope doesn’t have an expiry date But silence is the loudest scream
This poem, Willows, was a rather emotional piece to come up with and took some time to construct because of the emotion and story behind it. The poem is about a person that came into my life back a few years ago, we became close but have since lost contact and the connection that was once so fluent, although she and her memory has stayed with me ever since. Does anyone else out there wish that sometimes they didn't have such a good memory? Because I most certainly do, but she's a memory I'd rather keep in mind. Anywho, so here it is... my latest poem, Willows. Enjoy!
