Unconscious Venting

Unconscious Venting

A Poem by Erica Ross

You give me all of your love
I give you all of my time
You give me all of your body
Cause I give you the rush of your life

And I know I haven't been perfect
And you're even further from the fact
There's some things I might've said
That I should probably take back

And I can't control the past
So I'll leave it where it's at
And I don't know what the future holds
So I'm forced to worry about now

And I don't know about you
But I been worried 'bout me
Cause life ain't getting easier
I have more responsibilities

And people don't really care as much
Unless you're fulfilling their needs
And I've just been trying to be the one that everyone comes to see
Lately I've been thinking about what life has planned for me
But I ain't really complaining, no, I'm quite blessed for 18

My mind is full of doubt sometimes
I barely trust myself
But myself is all I have, right down to my death

And I know that I seem happy a lot
That's probably because I am
But when I have my bad days
I feel smaller than what I am

No one understands me, no, even when they say they do
Cause you can't be me, no, and I can't be you
I wrote this here on a spur ya know
Didn't even know this is how I really felt
But this is my life ya know
I'm just dealing the cards I've been dealt.
