Floodgates

Floodgates

A Poem by Simone
"

Waymaker. Promise keeper. Light in the darkness.

"
I'm sitting here frightened and alone 
with no one to call my own
I often look out onto the stars' 
and wonder why God's brought me this far
When I look into the mirror 
I try and see how the world views me 
Feelings of worry and anxiety fill my head 
I'm scared 
No one sees the real me 
No one sees how hard I try to succeed 
No one sees me working to become the best I can be 
I'm scared
My past comes back to haunt me 
Why did I do it ? 
What was I thinking?
Did I not care?
PAUSE 
I'm used to locking my feelings in the basement 
unable to be heard or seen 
But like a hurricane the doors flew open
