Shadow BlanketA Poem by TattianaDon't judge people because of their mental illnesses. It's stupid.
The blame is put on you
The fault is put on me They will never understand us They see what they want to see We apologize more than we should We have cried way more than we thought we would Hide ourselves beneath a shadow For it's where we've always stood A shadow blanket is a thing That's hard to do without Much like a toxic relationship You make up and then you shout We want that physicality A bond that we so lack Exhausted by the blanket That we keep upon our back People everywhere don't get The loneliness in our eyes But even in a crowded room They are devils in disguise Sometimes we want to hurt ourselves To forget the pain inside We know it's wrong but yet feels right It's quite the bumpy ride We want to part with our demons But it's rather hard to do When you don't get what you so deserve It feels like all you have is you Someday the cycle will come to an end But until then we have to fight The shadow blanket on our backs Till it's out of mind and out of sight © 2020 Tattiana |
