Poems from The Darcy Perspective
No one said that you are going to go through life unscathed. You will be hurt. You are going to hate people and people are going to hate you. You will even hate yourself. But those are not good enough reasons to give up. Someone out there loves you and cares about you and it will never be enough for you to love them back. You can’t just be done because your expectations weren’t met. You don’t deserve what you have, and until you understand that, you will never be happy with what you get.
You dress up in plastic and kerosene
And tell yourself a couple diamonds will fix that bump
But now your man is saying you’re too skinny
Oh...
I stole a piece of the sun’s heart
And kept her rays for you
I called them my Sunshine
My always greatest treasure
But even treasures...
Once I wished upon a star
Because a girl I knew wanted a car
But her mother was pregnant
And her father was just a fragment
Of shrapnel...
These troubled souls torment me
They scream against injustice
But they don’t know how to see
And I don’t know how to leave
It destroys me...
I'm lost in all our sweet sorrow
You're so afraid that we'll end to be nothing
But darling everything we have we borrow
And your fear is...
