What do you do?A Poem by Darian B.The poem speaks for itself
What do you do
when the first time you break down your walls And let someone in, You get shot at the scene? --When you want so much more for something But you know you can never have it? Or when your heart dies inside But you have to put a band-aid on To hide the pain from her? Now you know how I feel --And the pain feels so real I know my mask is starting to peel But I chose this life, I made this deal What do you do When you can't stop thinking about her? And what do you do When she is the only one --Who has ever made you feel ok? When she is the only one --Who has ever understood you? How do you deal with the pain Of knowing you can't have her? Now you start to understand Why I need to hold her hand This wasn't at all what I had planned I thought for now I had love banned But what do you do and how do you live When you want to protect the unprotectable And save what can't be saved? When you try so hard to recover What never started to begin with? When you put your heart and soul out Only to watch it be torn apart? Is there any point in fighting? Should you give up, go home Or just try to be a good friend? I threw my heart out on the line And by no fault of hers, and not truly mine I was denied the chance to feel fine But I patiently wait for a nonexistent sign. So what do you do When irony chooses to strike And the days that hurt you the most Are the days that didn't hurt at all? When you don't want to forget So you don't, But you know that you should? When you accept your fate When you seem to be ok, But you know that you are not... What do you do? © 2016 Darian B.Author's Note
