Day Dreams

All her life,

She had been day dreaming.

Day dreaming about who she wanted to be,

Who she should be,

Who she wished she was.

She was so focused on who she wanted to be,

That she forgot who she was.

Who she was meant to be.

She focused on the day dreams of her life,

Not her actual life.

She got so lost in a fake reality,

So lost in a day dream,

That she forgot her life.

She lived a fake life,

Not living,

Just dreaming about living.

Until one day,

She looked in the mirror,

And woke up.

She woke up from the day dreams,

And woke up to a beautiful world around her.

She saw the life that surrounded her.

The things,

The places,

The people.

The people that missed her.

The people who were always there,

Even though the day dreams were always in the way.

Writing, is my way of expressing my emotions and stories. Emotions and stories that other people refuse to hear.

The Worst Enemy

I am my own worst enemy. One, I can never seem to defeat.

Real or Fake?

What is friendship

When it suddenly seems so wrong

Yet you don’t know if it’s real or fake

Because it’s all you’ve known all along

You, Me, or I, Switch Them Around

Listen

Oh please

You really just want me to listen

So I can see you through different eyes

A different perspective

You want me to listen

Yet I don't

And I wonder why

You've become silent

All you've ever wanted

Is for me to listen

Yet it never happens

So I am sorry,

At least,

I hope you are.

Help

No

I'm just lost

Alone in my lonely boat

Walking a muddy path

Roots popping up all around

I trip

I fall

I stay for now

Until someone comes

And picks me up

Help

I need help

That is all I ask for

Yet I am still laying here

All this time later

I might as well sit by myself, in my lonely boat.

Just in my Head?

What is anger

When the person it is aimed at

Cannot see

Or maybe the blindfold

Is on you yourself

How can you stay

With this anger

If the person gives you kindness

Through the darkness

Yet it happens all again

And you don’t know 

If it’s just in your head

Understanding

They say they understand

They don’t

Hope is gone

Dismay engulfs you

Loneliness takes over

Then you find the person

The person who understands

The person who has experienced

The same as you

Perfect

I am Me,

You are you.

I know not much about you,

Yet I'm afraid you're gonna lose.

You seem so great,

So practical,

So unworthy of this disease.

You seem perfect in my eyes,

A role model.

Yet I'm afraid next time I go to see you,

It will be at your funeral,

And the cancer will have won.
