Elle - Hello Poetry

A happy ever after
she always thought she’d find

A little girl with hopes and dreams
the perfect prince in mind

There were no if’s or maybe’s
It would happen she was sure

When you’re eight you’re full of hope
she’d find that love so pure

The girl has gone a woman stands
with scars upon her heart

Those dreams are disappearing
the seams have ripped apart

Love finds love around her
How could it be so bold

Loneliness embraces her
It’s arms are hard and cold

She waits and waits with patience
Will she always be alone?

All she’s ever wanted
Was a love to call her own

Calling my name

Not asleep nor awake ‘twas that place in between
When I heard you calling my name
Were you here? were you there? in that place in between
When I heard you calling my name

I could say it’s a dream, a beautiful dream
When I heard you calling my name
But I think you came back just to say hello
When I heard you calling my name

My dear wonderful Grandad had passed away and one night I heard him call my name so clearly.

Little one

I love you even though I never held you
I ache for you who had no name
I miss you even though I never met you
My life will never be the same

Dancing in the rain

The shadows creep beside me, I pretend that I don’t care
They tap me on my shoulder, they whisper are you there?
At times I can ignore them, but they are always near
Who would want their gift when their gift just brings me fear

Doubt and can’t won’t leave me
Worry sticks by my side
Panic will not go away
The pain I must abide

When darkness falls they strike with flair
To sleep I say goodbye
They own my mind I belong to them
There is no where to hide

On and on each day I try
And i will never give in
One day will be my day, one day I will win

I'll just keep on fighting
Until you stop calling my name

Until that day arrives
I’ll just keep dancing in the rain

Depression, anxiety, stress is a battle for a lot of people and I have my share. Each day is a new day to beat it and each day I try

Time to be

No time to sit and ponder why
No time to to watch the world go by
No time to breath and just be me
No time to be a little free

No time to listen to the trees
Dancing in the summer breeze
No time to stop and watch and see
the beauty that’s surrounding me

No time to wait and wonder why
No time to watch the clouds float by
No time no time no time for me
No time to breath and just to be

Miss you

I miss the way I loved you
With every breath I loved you

I miss the silly girl in me
Who though we would love eternally

A song, a place I’m right back there
Young, naive without a care

Before I really grew into me
There was always us, you and me

Good times planted in my mind
Bad boxed up somewhere behind

Now I’m older now I see
You were never good for me

I had bad days, tears and sad days
Not knowing what I had done days

Try harder tomorrow days
Fail again and again days

I miss the person you could sometimes be
When you were not hurting me

So do I miss you, don’t you see
I miss the person I though you could be

I miss the way I loved you
With every breath I loved you

— The End —
