Soul of Grime

July 25, 2022

Wish I hadn’t said goodbye
the sadness envelops me
I keep asking myself “Why?”
Why not put me out to sea

You were a wonderful friend
Can’t believe this is the end
You were there around the bend
Truly a friend to the end.

But in the end, they all leave
that’s the way it’s gonna be
I’m just too screwed up to love
please just put me out to sea.

My emotions are intense
I live on the Borderline
my emotions are suspense
My mind is simply fried

I wish I could turn back time
This message will have to do
because I don’t have a dime
and I have so much to lose.

You told me you’d be a friend
as long as you could be one
now it has come to an end
All in all and one and done.

I wouldn’t give up those times
they were the best in my life
although my soul is filled with grime
I will always fight for life.

Hello, my name is Anne-Marie. Welcome to my profile. I like to think of myself as a writer and advocate for mental health and invisible illnesses. Part of me struggles with my faith on a daily basis because of my sexual orientation. So a lot of my poetry is about coping with that and my health on a day-to-day basis. I don't define myself with my sexual orientation or my health struggles but they are a part of me; there's no denying that. I love to write dark science fiction about dystopic futuristic landscapes. I like to write strong female leads with a lot of emotion and feeling to them. I truly live, breathe, and enjoy writing. Thank you for reading this
