All I'm Asking For

All I'm Asking For

A Poem by Vanessa
"

What's going on in my life at the moment D:

"

So im standing here staring in the mirror
And it couldn't be any clearer
That I am not the same person I was before
I am not going to deny it anymore.
My life was happy, now im doing pretty crappy.
I used to walk out the door with a smile,
But that expression's been gone for awhile.
I feel like im underwater, like im not even breathing.
It's all just a nightmare I refuse to awaken from isn't it?
Please tell me that that's what this all is.
Because I just can't bear to accept that this is real.
That I don't have you anymore.
And that's all that im sorry for.
That person with my name that only lives now in my memories,
Is who I wish I still was.
I wish I could smile, and mean it.
I wish I could laugh, and do it easily.
I wish I could look forward to something.
The only thing that gives me peace of mind,
Is knowing that when you return to me,
That other me will no longer be confined.
I'm sorry I get mad, I'm sorry I cry at night.
It's just that I can't take it anymore.
The things you say, sometimes just ruin my day.
They send my mind astray,
And make me wish my mind could be sent on a vacation.
Maybe that would take away the frustration,
And clear the desperation.
Maybe that would take away the depression,
And answer my one simple question...
Will I ever see you again?
I deserve one day of happiness,
Don't you think?
Could I please have just one minute of it?
Because that's all im asking for.

Awesome poem, i could totally relate too
its so hard when your trying to understand someone,
when you also want them to try and understand you.
Don't worry though in time things will get better.
Thanks for sharing and keep on writing.

Best wishes

Vanessa you're so good. :D
Maybe you should change 'clearer' to 'more clear' though. Lol? :D Cause that would rhyme with mirror better and also I think that saying clearer slightly resembles saying something like betterer. LOL. XD That's pretty much all. =)
