Limits Need to be Contained

Limits Need to be Contained

A Poem by Gina

When I lay my head and look up at the stars

I try to find a purpose with it all

I forget about every time I complain about the scars

Made my mind play games like basketball

The only thing I tell myself is that after these years,

These pointless tears

Are not what they appear

You help me and I stop running

You told me I was worth something

When I told myself I was nothing

I just need to stop bluffing and bugging

What’s wrong is hella right

Alright, I know it’s crazy despite

All the midnight texts, and the stuff we write.

I’m losing myself

The stuff I’ve picked up, fell off the shelf

I rebelled now look, I’m overwhelmed

My perfect future tense doesn’t apply to common sense

I’m dancing… spinning, spinning, getting dizzy

Will you catch me before I fall?

Something so hard becomes so easy

It flows and melts like a waterfall…

Stay one more minute

I haven’t reached my limit and

I need to finish what I may have started

Listen, I might be timid but I’m here for you

I need you, I’m the one you can turn to, when you need to

I see your hair, your eyes and your skin

But I see beyond that. I see the real you

Deep within, I know I win when I see your grin

There isn’t more to say.

My reminiscing needs to be contained.

By the way, some day

We’ll pay the standard cost of living.
