WorldA Poem by Megan E Twenter
I was so confused
Tossed away into the dark Wandering all alone Forgot I had a heart When I was sitting quiet in the blackest of my room In the quietest of sounds my head held the loudest boom when i would wake up crying from the fears that haunt my dreams of always being lonely lost my broken heart's seam when i would wake up shaking from the cold that stole my bones I would start into the darkness of a place that I called home One day I woke up laughing for the humor i found within feeling sorry for myself in a game i could still win I was thinking f**k it when you came across my path on a cold october evening while with a friend i shared a laugh I remember smiling when I first saw your face I thought, hey I know this one Yanno, today might be okay It was later I heard you laughing At something that I said and I thought Id like to hear that Laugh always in my head So I went out and got it And now that laughter's mine those eyes, that simple kiss I wish my lips could mime Every time I hugged you it was "I'll see you again" But goddamn, I never imagined That you would become my bestfriend For every word I tell you every smile that I share are honest and yours to keep for your laughter? I think thats fair The moment I first touched you My fingertips went numb my body went into overload Blind, deaf, and dumb Ive been paralyzed for weeks When you're lying next to me at 4 AM, inside your bed I dont dare to sleep There are times I dont believe it when you miss me like the rain In the middle of a drought like a car to a train I will follow you forever same direction, the same track when you pull the break lever ill just push it back Youre everything I wanted Youre everything I need These days I dont feel haunted by those lost and lonely dreams The sky is looking brighter steady ground beneath my feet youve always been the rock to the flint that brings the heat
