‘Trust me’

You said

‘Help me’

You cried

I trusted you

Frankly, I was dumb

I helped you

Shattered trust is the sum

You didn’t trust me

I was in pain

You didn’t help me

You were covered in vain

So take me already

To the sky above

So I don’t have to see your face

I thought what we had was love

Stupid

So young

I didn’t what love was

And I couldnt have fun

Alone, I was

All stuck in myself

Or in my...

The one I had always looked up too.

She held my hand,

Yet always guided me in the wrong direction.

She made me attack the one

Who now I stand strongly beside.

Twisting my perception lie by lie,

She slowly became a carcass.

A reflection of what she had become.

“An attention seeking whore,”

Is what I would say

Yet, despite my sorrow and rage boiling in me

It seems nearly impossible to cuss her out...

I can’t trust myself to talk anymore

People don’t like words

No matter the mouth

From which they spout

I don’t mind not talking

Overthinking is something else

But not talking should be ok

I can keep to myself

I overshare

Way too often

Or try to stand my ground

I have learned not to share

With certain people in my life

It never ends well

But i force myself to bare

Not talking should be eas...

I still recall

Your joyous laugh

The way I looked so shocked

As you saved me from my past

The smoke began to fade

As I took your hand

How could we have known

The tale of how it would end?

You showed me your home

I couldn’t imagine going back

And yet, betrayal runs deep

And my heart starts to crack

Your yells and your screams

Blaming me for not my deed

As she flees in the green

Star clenched in h...

Ever since I can remember,

I’ve been alone, just a dying ember,

Born into a family I wasn’t supposed to be,

I had a father who took his anger out on me,

With fists of fury I was always beaten full of worry,

As they’d rain down on me like a verse unrehearsed,

In the deafening silence my cries l remained unheard,

My siblings that filled me with hate,

Confused my heart filling my life with rage,

At s...

Every day, every night

I sit alone, no one in sight

Lights on, darkness gives me a fright

That's why I left you, to bathe in the light

My window, now shattered glass

You hit it with a tennis ball, heavy mass

Now on the grass

My window is broken from your hard pass

You broke my window

Shattered, I won't forgive though

Trudging through seven feet of snow

Dodging the insults you throw

My trust, yo...

I held my boy

My sweet baby brother

I had to promise him

That his Bea would not go

And I would not be stolen

It hurts

Because the one who stole me

Was myself

Every single time...

I was walking down the aisle

With a bouquet of yellow roses

When they started to wilt

The closer we got to the altar—

My feet started to tremble

And my knees wobbled.

I was sixteen again

And my insides were made of jelly.

The boy with the broken spirit

Begs me to love him.

And, foolishly, I’ve been an overwatered garden

And love flourishes in the deepest hollows of my being.

I poured him a tall...

shattered trust

broken heart

hurtful past

dreading doom

tired eyes

crying out

endless nights

painful rues...

I can’t believe it, how could she?

Bruises, cuts, all over me.

No apology, no sorry.

I try to forget, really try.

I try hard not to, but I cry.

I try to make my words flow now,

But my poetry is dead, left me.

I wept for my words, not my hurt,

I used to write my problems down,

Flowing, syllables, symmetry, simple,

Now my words are stuck, gone, missing.

I write things down, they rhyme for sure,

N...
