Taylor.

Taylor.

A Poem by Chloe Madison Taylor.

It's still hard to imagine the sun rising in the morning,

when theres more funerals than there are birthdays.

love doesnt come easy these days, and neither do we.

But noone promised living would be easy,

and noone swore the sun would keep shining.

Never lower your standards for someone,

or play by anyone elses rules but your own.

It's hard to find words to say

when your choking on your pride

It's hard to bend over backwards for someone,

when you have no idea which way is up

It's hard to make it down the right path

when theres nothing lighting the way

It's hard to walk out into daylight

when the sun comes out to scorch our skin

And It's hard to put down the pills

when there have been rumors of a genie in a bottle

and you're wishing for a deep sleep.

but don't say your goodbyes just yet, Taylor

The moon seems to be packing up and moving out

maybe the sun will come back and light your path

back home, back to me, back to Jake

It's still hard to imagine the sun rising in the morning,

when theres more funerals than there are birthdays.

But you've got a sunrise to watch

close your eyes for noone.

Taylor is my best friend since fifth grade who made a bad decision. She's in a mental hospital for a couple weeks.
This could be alot deeper, alot more meaningful
but it is what it is.
