Who is worth saving?A Poem by Darian B.I just need to put my pain somewhere and this is only place I really haveI once said in a poem that everything could be saved as long as it was worth saving...
So why is my heart still broken? Am I to learn that I can never be saved? --That I am not worth saving? So who is? What determines the value of a human heart? Is it by the people the person has helped? Or by the people who have helped the person? Who here is worth saving? I like to think I have value -In fact Im sure I do... But where are those that value me? Why is it that everywhere I turn I find dead ends? And everywhere I run collapses around me. I needed time away from my world so that it could heal But Im back and all I find are bandages --Used to mask the bleeding I tell everyone around me that Im doing well. They dont really care, They asked a generic question and I gave a generic answer. They walk away happy and move on I walk away torn and lying face first in the dirt Wondering if I am even worth saving Pain is such a relative term. When I had my wisdom teeth pulled my face was gaunt with pain... --Yet my soul felt nothing. It was like my body was telling me it hurts but my heart said no This is nothing, I feel worse pain on a daily basis The pain wasn't worth saving When do I get to feel okay again? When do I get to move on? Am I worth saving? I keep starting to write my pain into words And everytime I leave the poem without saving it... Somehow I finished this sorry excuse for one. Maybe it isnt worth saving, --Maybe I should have trashed this one too But this is how I feel, this is who I am Perhaps Im not worth saving either. © 2017 Darian B.Author's Note
