PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

my  mind races and my heart beats fast

my thoughts stretch from east to west

the burning from the light i cant reach

my body aches from lack of rest

i feel the heat upon my skin

the flames scorch what once was me

although this pain is all in my head

i cant help but think its a reality

i cannot have that which i see

for its territory upon i cannot cross

i know the consequences of those steps i took

for the hurt i caused and the love i lost

and deep inside me, locked away so tight

are the things upon which i thought were true

but to my surprise i was taken aback

when all the lies come shining through

the empty promises reveal the truth

and now the illusion beings to fade

for what i thought was my happiness road

was nothing more than the shit you say

so goodbye to mistakes i made in the past

and hello to another glorious day

for now i know where i stand

for which is God that holds my hand
