I wish I knewA Poem by Billie Atterberryanother old poem from the pastAlone in my head, with no way out To many thoughts, to many doubts I use to run when it felt this way Now it's like I'm dying to stay Push and pull with every word And sometimes they can burn It’s not like a cut to watch you bleed It’s more like something is controlling me I want to scream I want to cry But for some reason I just sit by
I smile this smile to cover the pain And act like everything is ok When really it feels like there's a flood in my soul Filled with constant fear of letting go Even though I know letting go would be right Walking away to save my mind Instead I hold on to a dream that is UN real As sorrow in my heart continues to fill
I need you hear I need you gone Something inside of me is seriously wrong I want to leave so I pull away But then I can't so I choose to stay It’s like I can’t make up my mind So I keep it to myself all the time I don't know what the hell is wrong with me It’s like something has control and there’s no answers to be
seen
It’s like my mind is constantly confused And my heart is torn in two I just wish I could figure out what’s wrong I wish someone could tell me what’s going on...... © 2013 Billie Atterberry |
