It's Easier Said Than Done
I watch graceful cries
They burn my tongue
They burn my lips
They burn my eyes
It’s easier said than done.
I’m numb.
I think I think I think
My head is pounding
My ear drums retire.
It’s easier said than done.
I smile because it’s easier than words.
To tell them all the truth.
To tell them how I actually feel.
It’s easier said than done.
I thought poems were supposed to rhyme?
But that was before I saw that life doesn’t make sense.
Watch me overcome.
Watch me grow to the person you didn’t expect.
Watch my eyes heal
Watch my heart mend.
Watch my soul grow wings and fly.
Even if it can’t see where it’s going.
It’s easier said than done?
Watch me.
