Merissa

\"Everything\" Poem

 

Time has flown by

I push out a sigh

Look at the sky

Might even cry

 

Grow up and be

That which is me

Ready to see

Taking a knee

 

Done what was best

They gave me a test

Hurting my chest

Leaving the nest

 

I am who I am

Seen as a lamb

Was stuck in a jamb

Loving my fam.

 

I\'m sorry I left

Never been deft

Feels like a theft

Containing bereft

 

I\'m tired of sores

Seeping from pores

Too many lores

Want to be yours

 

Don\'t leave me alone

Hate I was shown

Already flown

To the unknown

 

I\'m lost in my heart

Please never part

Thought I was smart

Back at the start

 

I\'m sorry I\'m not

That which you fought

Need to be caught

From pain that is wrought

 

I\'m not very strong

You made me feel wrong

They\'re taking to long

Don\'t silent my song

 

You left me broken

But I have spoken

Gave me a token

And now I\'m awoken

 

I wish I was better

For the unwritten letter

Held in a fetter

Needing a petter

 

This is the end

I came to depend

Don\'t have a friend

I never blend

 

You know that it\'s true

Nothing is new

Following through

Photo askew

 

What is this pain

Pretending is vain

Feels like a drain

Kept in a chain

 

Know what I lost

I paid the cost

You I have crossed

All has been tossed

 

Why is what\'s real

Making me kneal

I don\'t want to feel

Slowly I peel

 

Maybe that\'s life

Always some strife

Hurts like a knife

And they are rife

 

What do you think

Make a small clink

Right at the brink

Ready to shrink

 

No one\'s at fault

Shut in a vault

Others exalt

I chose to halt

 

Maybe it\'s me

Not the right key

Deep as a sea

Let out a plea

 

Now seventeen

What does that mean

It\'s the same scene

Just bigger screen

 

Repressing what hurts

Gave you alerts

Comes out in spurts

Goes back and inverts

 

Coming undone

Sight there is none

This isn\'t fun

I want to run

 

Need to find out

That which I shout

Filled with such doubt

Darkness has sprout

 

All will fall apart

Breaking my heart

Fills up a chart

And where do I start
