The AftermathA Poem by beccaBased on a true story B)I’m the hurt you think of when songs come on I’m the thought that makes you spark up Why is this okay? Maybe I’m the fool to settle for this To feel it strongest in my quietest hours And to see it hovering in my loudest Let me breathe Please The silence is deafening While the words are earth shattering Where do we stand? Amongst all the decrepit land, nothing is stable No solid footing is truly solid at all Stances made clear leave more questions Whilst bringing more silence Is it all really worth it? Nevertheless, push it down I cannot joust any decision among another in grief My other in grief Please stop hurting Stop letting the pain run throughout these caverns You wanted them dry, don’t let the blood run But don’t try to swallow your pride; you never will I hope it wasn’t pointless to you I let my washes run; flooding almost Not with control but rather the lack of I have become a being enveloped in akrasia yet again All the blame I can cast will do no good Your eyes haven’t seen all that is to offer What can I expect Not that you may see it the way that I do But that you’ll do as you see fit to see it your way Believe me; I am confused I feel lost Concreted itself on my bare skin Eroded deep into my veins Taken home in my heart and lungs Breathing in this pain amongst other substances It’s my agenda, pain Hell, it may as well be my best friend too At least it’s always been there Oh but my mind must stay pure To gain sympathy is a twisted technique One you think I abuse One you believe is part of me One you truly think is who I am I’d do it all different if I could If you’d let me But as time has no business in reminding me, your mind is made up While I wait for the wind the twist at my fingertips So I’ll let it But my heart will make me wait While my mind wants to drift down my own path
But my words are from the heart And I know yours are too. © 2020 beccaReviews
