What do you do?

What do you do?

A Poem by Amy Whetzell
"

just questions from my head & heart

"

What do you do when all you want to do is sleep?

What do you do when the only thing you feel like doing is crying?

Where do you go when no light guides your way, when you feel so helpless and alone and scared?

What happens to the free spirit when the heart is broken?

 

I thought learning about my past would be a good thing, but now I'm not so sure. I thought I needed to know, now I wish I didn't. Perhaps this was a bad idea, maybe it should all end here. With just one memory, and God I hope its the worst, with just one memory, I'm a scared little girl again. I want to know why this happened to me, why did I think I was being punished, why didn't I tell someone????

What do you do when this strong sturdy rock you lean on crumbles away?

How do you go back and pretend it didn't happen?

How do you move forward when everything pulls you back?

Where do you go when you have no one to turn to?

How can I get passed the woman in me and her mistrust?

How can I move forward from the little girl's broken heart?
