Another Way Down

Another Way Down

A Poem by Exit Only
"

Stupid teenager feelings

"

I've had the future planned out since the first time you asked

I couldn't bring myself to tell you

Because I knew you would try to stop me

And I can't handle that

It'd be best for the both of us


I want to dissipate in the sun

I want to disappear in the night

I want everyone who has ever held their breath for me

to let it go


I swear I try to be happy

but these long days still get to me

And I'm scared what you'd do

if you knew what I do, to get through them

And maybe

you'd see the sorrow

if you opened your god damn window

and maybe

you'd shed a tear

if you took a step out of the god damn door


I want to dissipate in the sun

I want to disappear in the night

I want to burn up in the summer

I want to freeze over with the winter

And I want everyone who has held their breath for me

to let it go

I'm sick of dragging you down to the ground

That was a powerful read. The repetition of "I want to dissipate in the sun
I want to disappear in the night" gives way to how strongly you feel about those words. I love your imagery and metaphors, it makes the piece feel more real. I love your writing :) PLEASE KEEP POSTING MORE!!
