What Does One Say?


What does one say that hasn't already been said,

When you sit down and cry at the end of your bed?

Your heart is heavy, wrenched, and torn.

Your face streaked with tears,

    eyes forlorn.

Forgetting seems best but remembrance comes first.

The emotions are filling,

    ready to burst

The memories flood, and you smile through tears

You're inspired by life and fight through your fears

It hurts.

I know.

But remember them true  

Have faith and take heart,
   You will come through.

I'm a passionate musician. I also enjoy running and working out (just as much as I enjoy food). I'm easy to make friends with and I try to be as honest and upfront as possible. Poetry is just another one of my muses so, I hope you enjoy it!
