PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Don’t leave me with my thoughts.

That’s when things get dark.

The silence is too fucking loud.

I can’t take it.

I hate being alone lonely

that’s when I feel the most inadequate.

I mean if I was enough

they wouldn’t leave me alone right?

They wouldn’t leave me like this

surrounded by my doubts

wondering if I’ll ever be what they need me to be.

My doubts will never leave me.

At least then I won’t be alone.

Sometimes it seemed like nothing could fill this void.

That I would always be tearing myself into pieces

to be the girl everyone wanted me to be.

And then she came along.

Suddenly I wasn’t afraid to be left with my thoughts

because they were no longer overflowing with doubt.

The chaos became less chaotic

And all I needed to be was me.

She thought that I was more than enough

but she knows I’m not perfect.

I can be completely me with her

without worrying if she will love me.

Being alone doesn’t seem so bad anymore

because even if I’m by myself I’m not lonely.

The silence isn’t too loud these days

because there’s always a whisper of her name.
