a poem of trying to understand |
Have you ever wondered, What it's like to drown, To stop the screaming, The pain and the dreams, That never leave you in the end, Have you ever wondered, What it's like to fly, To break the shackles, That hold you down, Making you sigh and frown, Have you ever wondered, If you will break free, Or will you be left behind, Like all the others, The people that were forgotten, Figments from the past, Just a distant memory, I have, I don't want to be a shadow, With unseen horrors and screams, I want people to hear me, To understand, That we are humans too, Even if they may belittle us, We still hurt and if we're left behind, Then i guess, there's no hope for them either, But I hope, My pain will help yours too, Because as much as you think it's too late, There's someone who loves you, Who would miss you so much if you left, If only you would open your eyes, Because in the end, If you left, You would be causing the pain, Making the ones you love, Feeling that heart breaking pain, Leaving people broken and never the same, It will make them wonder, Why they never saw it coming, Why they didnt see it sooner, To save you from this cage, They'll keep asking why, Over and over again, Do you want to be the one, Dragging them all down, To commit a selfish act, Even if to save your breaking heart, Do you want to die, Knowing your death, Will affect everyone you know, Even me, 'Cause it breaks my heart, To know a stranger, A friend without a name, Has left us all behind, But if you must, Goodbye my friend, I'll grieve for you, Even though I don't know you, I just want you to know, I care too, |
