My Birthday �" Poem

For that one special day it seemed I was loved and really wanted.

Although from not telling anyone I felt more than exhausted.

Wanting someone to know, I wanted to show what I’ve bottled,

Speaking about me was the hardest thing I’ve battled.

Every day was daze, daze, daze,

With such very little praise.

My walls were up,

And my doors were locked shut.

Believe me I’ve suffered through these wars,

I’ve had these locked doors.

My waterfall of tears would come at night,

My birthday was the time that felt most right.

I did not want to suffer more from crying,

I did not want to get caught up and feel like I was dying.

This thing I call my cloud is a grizzly bear,

Which in a matter of fact, no one is ever aware.

People did not realise as to who they were looking at,

I felt more and more like I was becoming a bit of a doormat.

These same people would get used to looking at the same face,

It became the face I couldn’t embrace.

Speaking up was a tough thing to do,

Amazed was the reaction of quite a few.

I can say it’s the best move I’ve taken,

I did not want to be mistaken.

This is my story, I share,

I know it may not be the greatest as I've recently found poetry and writing is a great escape for me to let my emotions out.

Poetry is a beautiful way to show what we real feel deep inside us where can go back in time see if we feel the same way or not. Life will be as good to you as you want it to be if someone dose not like who we are they are the loser for it not us. :) Larry
