Things I'll Never Say
Poems
Jun 2019
Everything I couldn't say
I can't tell you how many nights I wished my world would end.
I can't count how many times I thought about taking my own life with not even a letter to send.
I can't tell you that there's still a vacancy in my heart and an emptiness in my soul, where they took pieces of me I couldn't replace.
I can't tell you life was easy and the world is kind, because people can be cruel and it's not always such a great place.
I can't tell you that there were many years that I lost myself.
I can't tell you that when things got bad, I never asked for help.
I can't tell you even today, that I am fully healed.
I can't tell you that I'm not okay, my lips are sealed.
I can tell you that no matter how much I wished, my wishes never came true.
I can tell you that each time I tried to take my life, my body always fought through.
I can tell you that the vacancy is filled sometimes, and the empitness lingers in the quiet of my soul on the good days.
I can tell you that when people are kind, I always hope they'll stay.
I can tell you that after losing my mind, I somehow found my back.
I can tell you that although I'm not fully healed, I've made it through with just a few cracks.
I can tell you that I fake it as best I can without ever letting go.
I can tell you I am holding on, but it's getting harder and I know it shows.
