Disappointed Eyes


Could you look me in the eyes? My mistake is easy to repair! Don't treat me so coldly, do not despise Simply because the crack was large. I have made bigger holes in life, Fixing the damage is hard enough. Please understand my strife As I try to regain your trust. This blunder is not my first or last. I cannot contain my fear any longer. Admitting I need your help so fast Is unfair, but I have no choice left. Know the pain I feel at each turn When you snap, and your freezing eyes burn. I know you love me no matter what But it is difficult to remember when your heart is shut.

I don't write poems according to conventions, rules, or structures. I use the word vomit in my brain and put it on paper. I like to think of myself as a Wallflower with an overflow of excitement and nerves. I don't feel fear easily, but when I do, it means something.
