Fragile Falling

old poems

My mind knows it's wrong, my heart feels it's right
And it's my heart, so far, that is winning this fight
Every moment of every day is spent in your eyes
To tear away may mean looking to true lies
My heart nor my mind believe I'm ready to face
What may be, so my mind will slowly erase
Everything that comes to be or already is
And so my fate of now lies truly in his

In three short months my entire life
Stopped and spun on the point of a knife
Now everything's crazy and nothing makes sense
So undoubtedly this makes many things tense
My friends are angrily turning to go
With good reason, deep down I know
I don't want them to walk away
But "I can't go" is all I can say

No one understand what is on my mind
Not friends, Josh, or any other kind
Only me, if even, so I stand alone
Drifting away...On my own
I can't stop the flow it's caught my drift
As the sands of time continue to sift

Chaos is unleashed and I'm running free
I need a place to stand, but not where to be
I want nothing, everything, and all in-between
A love and a life, a shoulder for friends to lean
But I know I can't have it all
What do I choose, where do I fall?
I'm lost in this mess, give me time to heal
Courage to change, strength to deal

So many choices, so little knowledge to hold
I close my eyes and feel my heart growing cold
I know I'm letting too much slip away
But there's too much here to make me stay
What will happen in time will be revealed
And until then, my lips shall be sealed

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My boyfriend was completely taking over my life, and I didn't really mind, but I was losing my friends. So this came. (**Note** Never, EVER let a boyfriend/girlfriend come between true friends. EVER.)
