I can't explain
Heather Ertelt Jun 2019
I can't explain this thing

That beats deep inside me.

I will never understand

This thing I cannot see you.

I can't explain these feelings

I have always tried to hide.

I don't understand this anger

I'm feeling deep inside.

I cannot explain why

My heart is truly crying.

I don't understand this pain

And yet I keep trying.

I can't explain

What I see in my dreams.

I never understood these fears

Or what it all means.

I can't explain these eyes

And the story they never told.

I don't understand why

My heart is so cold.

Broken
Heather Ertelt Oct 2018
When will it stop?
This pain i feel deep inside me.
My one any only
Turned out nothing like it should be.

I waited for him
And i gave him my heart.
I trusted him with my innocence
And he tore me apart.

Unanswered questions
The lies I won't forget.
Should I have forgiven him?
How long will i feel regret?

How can I have faith?
Will I ever trust again?
Why do I still feel plain
And he already had another woman.

My thoughts alway about him.
Can't get her off my mind.
How could she be so cruel
When I was so kind.

I made him my whole world
And now all I feel is alone.
Have I lost my chance at love?
Has my hurt turned to stone?

Crazy Dreams
Heather Ertelt Jun 2019
My life is full

Of these crazy dreams

Silence out of reach

Or at least it seems.

I often wonder

what makes me tick

as these crazy dreams

they are making me sick.

I live in darkness

Each day of the week

About these crazy dream

I shall never speak.

My heart darkens

Black as night

As these crazy dreams

I try to fight.

A hellish nightmare

I live each day

As these crazy dreams

Slowly take my life away.

— The End —
