a poem about struggles in love |
TEARS OF TRIUMPH The corners of my mind Search for answers I can't find Are they hidden somewhere deep Within the conscious thoughts of sleep So much hardship gathered there It's a pain that I can't bare Still it keeps on winding back Back to the hours of despair Sometimes it only takes a word, A slip of someone else's tongue To push me over the edge To where my tortured life begun. Never part of a circle,any club, any crowd I was clinging to the hope Someone would see me, pull me out, Take my hand, raise me up from the pit I fell into That I was not a foreign thing, Or someone invisible- But they saw my soul; Fragile and weak They tore it in two before I had the chance to speak. Years go on and the days pass by Still the haunting comes back Just to see if I still cry Just to see if part of me won't let the hatred go The bitterness caused by those that claim they weren't to know Because its just too easy to deny, After days and months and years gone by. But I'm not the girl I was before She's gone, she's dead, Goodbye! You broke me then but I'm whole again And you will never see me cry. |
