Once AgainA Poem by The OutKastedI
face it every day. You’re the one that’s forgetting. How
can you stop thinking of someone when they were the only one there in your
craziest times? How
do you keep your heart from becoming Cold and Hard again? How do you deal with yourself for
Trusting some stranger? The whole time perceiving what
they were really there for, but not caring and bringing down almost every wall,
letting them into your deepest fears, your craziest ideas and your most
malevolent demons. Taking
off the mask that you wear with the world, only because at first, this person
seemed as unimportant.and as irrelevant as chipping paint off the wall of an abandoned warehouse. But what happens when you started
something that you swore wasn't going to
get anywhere but ends up pulling at the calloused, peeling pieces of your
heart? Its only when you open up to
someone do you really know how vulnerable you really are. How can your heart not become
calloused or hard again? Maybe it never got too dangerously soft to begin with? How do you stop it from becoming complete Stone? This is why I keep my guard up at
all times. I feel stupid to let Any one in. I’m such an idiot. Why don’t I ever listen when God
speaks? Or when anyone speaks? Now I’m stuck here, trying to ignore
in every possible way, the gaping, sore, inflamed, bleeding wound/hole inside
my chest where my heart is supposed to be, that has always seem to be there but now, it finally has gotten my
attention; I just don’t know what to do to take care of it. I don’t ever say anything to
anyone, except that one person. But it seems like it was the Worst Mistake I could’ve made. Falling, over and over, thinking
and hoping that it’ll bring us “together”, but I made myself blind to see that
I was just a failed target. Just another one that fell into his charm, just
another that fell into his trap … But just another that knew exactly what he
was doing, knew exactly what I fell into, but decided to look past all that,
into his heart, if there ever was one. © 2014 The OutKastedAuthor's Note
