She Must be me

This is a poem about how i feel...corny sounding i know

 

She must be me

Tattered dreams

A broken soul

A shattered heart

A big black hole

 

A room filled with people

It seems so dead

There’s a man in the window

It’s all in her head

 

She does not admit it

But she is scared

Not many know

The pain she has bared

 

She smiles in the morning

She cries in the night

It never did matter

How much she could fight

 

She hates her past

But she would never erase it

Just sometimes she wishes

She didn’t have to face it

 

She tells herself

Take it day by day

And she hopes that she can

When she folds her hands to pray

 

She wears a mask

At school and at home

It once was like steel

But now it’s like foam

 

People are noticing

That something is wrong

They can hear a missing note

In her once glorious song

 

This girl’s poor heart

Can’t take the pain

She feels like she

Is going insane

 

She knows she can make

This she is sure

But after every brick wall

There’s another locked door

 

This girl is who

I didn’t think I could be

But if I’m writing about her

Then she must be me…

There are events in our lives that will haunt us till the day we die, not showing fear of them repeating is a very hard thing.
