I’m awake, I woke to this Been thinking ‘bout conversations I miss Gone like the people I had ‘em with Guess having people in life was a myth
I’m now losing sleep But I don’t want to weep Though how can I go to bed With all this ******* inside my head?
I wish I could go back to when The time happiness could’ve been If only back then I had not rejected The only woman I should’ve accepted
Can’t stop thinking for even a second How they vanish like they never happened My brain wants to stop, thoughts keep coming Bending my mind like crafting origami
I want to have those moments back Moments that I wish repeated It’s like I blinked and my world went black And everything became depleted
Now I’m back to waiting Got me working on my patience Something I’ll admit is irritating Only to become another acquaintance
I miss them all, all the folk That either lost contact or ran free Every ignition that went up in smoke I suppose there’s more fish in the sea
Oh gosh I’m reminiscing **** I should be dismissing The repetition that’s overflown I guess I’m back on my own
Introducing… Origami! ---- Thought upon over the last few weeks and entirely constructed overnight, Origami came to mind after pondering and remembering life while growing up some 10-15 years ago. The poem itself is about myself and the inability I seem to have to keep people with whom I develop bonds with and also wanting to return back to good moments in my life where I felt like the world wasn't such a tight fit like it seems to feel like currently. It's funny that I find it difficult to describe the message behind the poem in words now, yet the words in the poem itself seemed to flow without too much thought at all. Through my teen years and throughout my adulthood so far, I've noticed that people come into my life and disperse as if I'm only dreaming the life I'm living, so that's most definitely present within the poem. I chose the word Origami to be the poem's title because my life is very much like the art form with so many sharp turns and corners to deal with in such a short timeframe. I believe that the wordings within the poem will be relatable to a lot people read and understand the messages behind them. ---- Thank you for taking the time to read this poem of mine, I really hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
