Stop Chasing

Stop Chasing

A Poem by QuietPoet

Stop Chasing

I realized today

As the wind blew in my face

With my hair in my eyes

Sitting next to you

Listening to the words coming out

I’m a sad person

Just explaining everything

Talking about how personal my life is

And how much it affects me

Made me see and feel sad

I don’t know why,

Because I knew everything I was saying

I guess just hearing it out loud

Made it feel different

Why? Don’t ask me

My heart sits in the middle

While everyone stands around it

Their all looking at it

With this desire to have look

But what their not seeing is

How broken it is

How dead it is, laying there

Little does any of them know

Its going to run, run far away

From the middle and hide

Hide away where it can’t be found

It’s the person that will come

And dig it out, show me light

Have the guts to heal me

That will be the person

Who will win my heart over

We’ll figure the rest out later

But now, its running

None of you will catch

So stop chasing

Give yourself a rest

And try again in time

Kylie, this is heartbreaking. It is interesting how different our feelings seem when we hear ourselves explain them to someone else, or, write them down, like you just did. I feel like this almost everyday, stop chasing, don't bother, but for different reasons. Sometimes one just gets tired of letting others down.

Loved your poem. Hope your heart stops running soon and turns around. You might be surprised what you see.
