my first attempt at prose! its raw and its real and its my favorite |
listen to the trains sail by as if their tracks were the streets outside Im overtaken with exhaustion as I lay here I know that the sun will peek through in the morning sending me another day, another chance I am too sad to smile anymore or hope to make this right So I allow the possibilities to overcome my mind, I need to sleep, to close my eyes and not be afraid But this house is strange when you’re not here, no sound, no smell, Just emptiness almost as I imagine hell Just yesterday, you wrestled him on the floor And tomorrow I will see you, and my heart will leap with joy My eyes are so heavy now and still I want to write Get the feelings and emotions out Then maybe I can sleep, maybe I can dream of what life should hold Instead of what it will never be, a dream so bold My feet are warm, my fingers fast and the clock is ticking by I think the dog and cat that live here keep me up at night Perhaps that’s my excuse when the truth is so much larger I cant sleep, I never have since that day you left never to return Why do you love them and not me? Why must I fight so much harder than the rest? I know the disgust you hold for me, you know not the depth of this Can you see your sadness when you look into My eyes? No you cant, you see sadness because he wont love me back The truth is that you wont love me back Im alone, I have been for so long, and Im afraid of the dark and of heights and Im afraid that one day you will realize im litter on the sidewalk. I hope like sleep tonight, that day will never come, but I have to drive a long way tomorrow so this day is done. |
