Thumping
Thump Thump Thump
The sound grows and grows
Thump Thump Thump
Away my heart goes
My head spins while my heart beats away
The stress and the fear are here to stay
They mix together in perfect form
And bring endless pain of fire and thorn.
I feel my life falling apart
Reality comes with each thump of my heart
A life that was one full of friendship and fun
Gets stripped away until all hope is gone.
I'm trapped in the dark looking for light
I need to escape and survive the night
That's when I saw that freedom is you
You have the key to help me get through
You gave me your hand and I held on tight
You pulled me out and into the light.
I saw your face and got lost in you eyes
Now life seems worth the pain and the lies
With you there is hope and I have a future
There is not problem you cannot suture.
Thump Thump Thump
My heart beats for you
Thump Thump Thump

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
