Feelings of a teenA Poem by MusicLoverThis is a collection of poetryIn the Shadows In the shadows, our safe location Away from our fears and our desires The bad overcomes the good We forget who we are and become animals In the shadows We dwell in the shadows Our own family, a place where we are welcomed The coming of age, we are helped On our own struggle, being a teen In the shadows We lurk, trying to find answers Peers, sports, school just life Piling on us, trying not to crack Breaking is a sign of weakness We cannot be weak In the shadows We are safe Where are you? I am all alone in the halls Looking through the sea of faces Seeing couples kiss The passion can be seen By that one touch You left me For her My best friend You promised me you would always be here, but Where Are You? You left me here cold and Alone Bottom of the backpack, forgotten and lost. I am the math homework Under the binder You probably forgot about me That’s ok Everyone else has to Forget me. I am the lab book in your locker You never use it You forgot about me I'm used to being left out I am used to being forgotten. I am the English paper Blown in the breeze You lost me. That’s ok. I'm away and I'm free I am lost and alone But in your arms I feel warmth I feed on your kindness I need you You are like my superman You understand me I want you To be without me because Without you I am alone We all have some sort of protection Mine was the dark veil Framing my high pale cheekbones I allow no one in When you came I allowed you in Your cold hand on my face was my protection Then you left You left me unprotected I desire for the cold hand I am vulnerable now And you were my all My protection. On the corner, waiting I am here On the corner Waiting Waiting for you The street corner In the rain I glance at my watch 5:45 You left me chilled to the bone I run for my house Leaving behind a single red rose On the corner in the rain The passion of a writer Writing is peaceful It helps me It is comfort Writing is like a chocolate Precious and delicious Writing is the candy for the soul Writing helps me cope It is my life Writing is peaceful It is an exercise Get better and be better Writing is a true passion and not to take lightly © 2012 MusicLoverReviews
