Escaping LoveA Poem by Raven DodsonJust my thoughts kinda like slam poetryLiving day to day Slowly burning into decay It is coming up to the month of may No matter what I do love escapes my hand washed up at bay Even the closest friendships turn to dust and never stay It may seem to be o.k. but sooner or later it is not enough anyway Love always turns to being hurt like a vanishing rey What is there to it? Fragile and broken But yet strong and put together Can this come to be That there is a plan in my life maybe Why so young but yet so old? Do you agree? No matter what I do My nearest and dearest always fall through the cracks Turning their backs to me Your just another nobody It is when I show my natural self when I get hurt the worst I am tired of showing myself to others Putting the mask on but tired of it It comes back and haunts you Your own words are used against you No one likes you Why do I ever believe I will get the happiness I want I feel like I have just stepped on a thousands tacks Is there a key to opening this door so I do not have to hide anymore Leaving is the only thing on my mind But yet I know that it is a not a rational decision Keep smiling, being a robot, and acting like everything is o.k. Putting on that mask because everything will then be perfect It is not as easy as A,B,C but is may seem that way
