taylor rose

a poem about me this is what i need to say but havent had the chance

im white

i have blue eyes

i am a blonde

im tall

thats what i used to be

now im white

i have blue eyes

i have brown hair

im tall

i have many marks that tell a story

my name is taylor

im now 18

an adult

i should be happy

this is my story

i have no dad

i lost him years ago

to alcohol

none of my friends know

its something i have hide very well

im not ashamed of it

but i dont want them to make fun of me

they already do that about how i dress

if only i had the strength

to pull my self up everytime they hurt me

i need to just pause my life

take a breather

so i took out my watch

and stoped my time

i watched others move forward

as i watched myself slip

back into time

i took the pause as a time to figure me out

pause

pause

pause

but as i did that

i realized i became forgotten

i felt left out

i no longer have them as my friends

i lost everything

by taking a pause

that pause cost me everything

or did it?

i finally became free

free of them

i was now able to just be me

that pause saved me

it can save you to

Author's Note

i wrote this because i want people to believe that just cause you change something about yourself doesnt mean people will like you better. i think every person should take a pause and see that no matter what you do they wont be there for you they wasnt there now i hope everyone enjoys cause i did.

Omg, that was a really inspirational and moving poem!!! I have no suggestions its just so stunning. Changing yourself for others is just wrong, I agree. Unless you change for the better. You are an amazing person; I can tell just by reading through your poems. Keep writing!! You could be someone's light!!!
