Sorry :
Night fell.
The darkness was thin,
like some sleazy dress
that’s been worn and worn.
My soul wears away
as if it were a piece of glass
lying on a sandy beach,
Just waiting to fade away,
As if my soul were an abandoned house,
Standing lonesome in the darkness,
Not paying any attention
To the people passing by,
The people With an apologetic look on their faces
as if to say I feel sorry for you¨
They say:
They say you are beautiful just the way you are,
They tell you to be yourself,
They tell you not to take it personally,
They tell you to be happy,
They tell you that you are strong and independent,
They tell you that you shouldn’t listen to them,
Then they say you are ugly
Then they try and change you
Then they make it personal
Then they make you miserable
Then they take you down
Then they make you listen
But you are beautiful
And you try your best to stay true to yourself
And you don’t take it personally
and you are happy
And strong
And independent
And you don’t listen to them
They try their hardest to make you feel ugly
They try their hardest to change you
They try their hardest to shatter you
They try their hardest to depress you
They try their hardest to destroy you
They try their hardest to make you listen
But they don’t get to you because you are a
Strong, independent, beautiful, funny, amazing,
Creative, joyful, kind, loving, adorable, brilliant,
Successful, fun, courageous, powerful, daring, wise,
Respectful, happy, special, delightful, playful, blessed,
exquisite, positive, optimistic, free, wild, confident, peaceful,
Imaginative, wonderful, person to be around and you don’t need them!
sunsets:
The sun sets gradually,
spreading its beautifully colored rays
spilling out onto the horizon
like pieces of shattered glass.
There is a tree
standing so deserted
in the gorgeously colored light.
All around i hear a song of the earth..
Its melody so perfect it seems fabricated.
As I explore I realize that I am also isolated,
yet I feel comforted by the solitude,
Sorrow:
He came home,
Said nothing,
Walked right past me,
stood there
With a look on his face.
I know that look.
Itś that look you give when
You feel empty,
When you feel like
nothing matters anymore
When you just don’t care anymore
but deep inside
You do.
you care too much.
You just break inside,
Into a million little pieces.
But in the end
it doesn’t really matter.
