Trust?

You wonder why I question everything you do.

It’s how we were raised, taught in school: Make a hypothesis, question the theories.

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise unless you can see the cold, hard facts.

You’ve worked so hard Now it’s the end But what comes next No one can pretend Luck is not on your side just hide

Growing Up

You’re young but old at the same time. You’re told you need to go towards a path that can sustain yourself, but you can’t find that path. No one told you it would be easy. No one told you it would be this hard either.

Nothing has prepared you for this.

Identity

“Run!” she said. So I ran past the trees and the birds I once loved. I skipped over the river my mother would bathe me in as a child. It only took a day to enter the city - the city of dreams.

I fell into the rhythm of the “real world” and looked towards the goals of those who were successful and ahead. They said I’d be happy here, but I had already forgotten what happy meant. My dreams were no longer my dreams; they were the dreams of my friends, teachers and acquaintances. Every moment had a deadline attached to monetary value. I was always reaching for something out of reach.

This is not how I imagined it would be when I listened to Her. Now I am lost.

I’ve lost my Identity.

When you’re gone for so long you forget what it’s like to be you. I used to write, but I don’t write anymore.

Hopeless

They all tell us to go straight They tell us our lives depend on it But we follow a crooked path To a distorted future

A Promise

You promised me "I'll catch you when you fall" I've fallen once, twice... Too many times to count.

You lied to me Left me on the ground I pick myself up Everytime

#promise #lies

have fun in the bitter sun I hope the light blinds you

Conversation

You only write about Sad, What about Happy?

Emotions asked.

Can't you see? There is no Happy.

Life replied.

Sadness hits Like a thunderstorm

There is no warning Only stormy tears

Drowning

You can go I will just pretend my insecurities do not exisit tonight and drown in these tears

Iniquities

You list I listen With every hello, there is a stronger goodbye Where did all the innocence go

We kiss Fall into bed Do the unspeakable, then walk away Where did all the innocence go

No longer fun Almost a chore At first a complaint and now a fight Where did all the innocence go

I watch You fall Pushed into the abyss of the roaring sea Where did all the innocence go

I whisper A tear Only this time, there are no apologies Where did all the innocence go

#iniquities #innocence #poetry

You lost me at the way you said hello.

#hello #lost

No, You Did Not Fall In Love.

Reminisce

They say the past will never be forgotten. It is suspended in a time capsule, a picture, a memory. There is a story in every still moment. There is a moment in every minute. Time keeps our secrets safe.

Do you remember when nothing mattered? We didn't have a care in the world. Do you remember when friends were people you met up with everyday and not another face on Facebook. Remember the time we used to talk on the phone every night? The hardest question of all: Do you remember what happened?

They say a picture holds 1000 words. The candle light is slowly burning out. I sit here to reminisce.

#Reminisce #these pictures I see make me sad #thoughts #likealiar

Spare Me

I'm tired of hearing you tell me You know me It's a story I've heard too many times before

You hide from me Your lies Nothing will hurt me anymore

I want to believe I am strong But there is so much more to learn

#Spare Me #poem #lies #deciet #strength #likealiar
