Lyfe After Me

Lyfe After Me

A Poem by Reeses
"

This is to show the feelings I have kept bottled in. In reality, there is no one standing with me through lyfe but God. Friends are not always able to be there. Sometimes I'm not either so this is what Lyfe is after me. . .

"

 

I’ve found it hard2stay cool.

I love u so much I hate u.

i was hurt by u so long that I’ve even tried2erase u.

I almost yelled2daheavens that the world owed me an apology.

But in reality mankind drives u into a box of reverse psychology.

Couldn’t walk a stark but I climbed a deadly hill.

I became so fed up w/lies that I lost sight of what was real.

There aren’t many candles since the creation of light fixtures.

I became so focused on the audience that I ignored the big picture.

I lifted mental trees and swam waterless seas of green.

At the end of my journey, nothing was serene.

All bottled up believing in this Utopian way of living.

I broke down and in my mind God stopped 4giving.

Then sinners stopped sinning and flowers froze 4rm bending.

I decided2leave w/out an ending and paint a new beginning.

It hurts knowing that all I have is God and myself.

No call, email, or text could pull in any1 else.

I floated ova plaques of health.

I cried my last tears & played the hand I was dealt.

As I grow freely fall.

Sitting still & standing tall.
