A dark poem about wanting the chance to forgive someone from my past that has changed. |
-Somebody I Don’t Know- by Keaton Foster Somebody I don’t Know Where did you go Will you ever come back Will you ever find a way To return from your grave Facing me just to say I love you child of life Both yours and mine Will you further add The appropriate apologies Ones that are So desperately required Or like before Like forever more Will you turn and walk away Never again looking upon All that you’ve left behind Stranger imprisoned in time Me, very much alive You, as dead as death defines How can this be Why is it that you seem So distant across every scream And every desperate plea Somebody I don’t know It never had to be like this There was always a better way A chance at normalcy In our world of abundant chaos I believed in you for a time Born of such gullibility I would have done anything Why didn’t you do the same Why do you continue not to Just face me once again That is all that I’ll ever need Forgiveness will be decreed An infinite amount of hope I will certainly bleed Easily such forgiveness Will be yours to take All of this will be true All of this will be for you Of course As long as such an impossible Condition can somehow be met Somebody that I don’t know Where did you go Will you ever return Will you ever find a way Back to all that was betrayed… Somebody I Don’t Know Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2013 |
