Right Now

Right Now

A Poem by J.

Two hands
Within each, a decision
One who understands
The other like an incision
Something that never heals
At the brink of drowning
In my own fermenting tears
Held back over many devastating years

All the If Only's in the world could not replace
What actually is staring me in the face
So another shielded day my heart must rest
To preserve what energy of life is left

All I can do is hope for happiness
The long awaited death of sadness
I can no longer scream from within
So I lay in the shadows once again
Holding close the only thing I'll always have

Myself

Pretty powerful. Not bad. They rhyme isn't perfect, but it still has a nice sound to it.

This is also filled with emotion with a nice un-forced rhyme. Keep up the good work
