Not Who I Want To Be

Folder: 
2009 Poems

I had befriended you,

In my time of despair,

When I needed comfort

You were there, no questions,

and better yet no answers

But now you will not leave

and I can’t let you go

You took all of me that used to believe

and now I’m all alone

I never would have taken that walk with you,

If I would have known that you’d leave me empty

I feel nothing inside

I’d give anything to feel normal again

That would make me feel happy,

To wake up and not long to sleep hours on end

I wish that one day I could feel like, “me”

I want to be free from you,

Free from you at last

I know what they say,

The past is the past,

Live in the moment now,

It is all that is left

but I am still not free

I still am not who I want to be
