Alone and it's my faultA Poem by Casey Wakeford
The creaky wooden fence is swinging with the wind,
It sounds like the clock is ticking But the clock is actually dead It's simply just the branches scraping, against the window pane instead Tonight, I sit here and think About all the nights I sat here to think it's been too many of them I can't get them back I can't have them back Wet eyes and quiet sobbing how many times did I try to solve this problem? What can I do, what have I done? So many nights, and the solutions are still none. can't be loud enough for my mother to hear, but be loud enough to rid myself of this fear that I am alone, That I will always be alone No matter what, Alone Mom never hugs me, Dad's never home. Who's here to tell me they love me, When they won't even pick up the phone? Boy 1 gave a good run, And left me there to cry. Boy 2 picked my heart up, Then left it there to die. Healed as I may be in those respects, You don't always get those feelings out of your chest The ones that creep up when you don't see a call, or a text, or a sign, or anything at all Your friend sees a planned movie without you and your boyfriend maybe calls, maybe a little late Maybe I'm just a little too f*****g anxious to be a good date I love with my whole heart, But people have shown me otherwise, That their hearts are fickle And their love is a lie Please, if you know me, remind me why chose me To be a figure in your life Maybe I'm too boring Maybe I worry too much Maybe I cry at stupid things Maybe I expect too much But I'll say one thing that I know, that is for certain, there is not one person I gave any less of my love too, nobody I was less than determined To show that I was there © 2014 Casey Wakeford |
