PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I've thought about how to write this

I've thought of what to say

I've thought a billion thoughts

that just won't go away



I've decided to make a stand,

a decision to decide,

and what I'm going to write

is the only solution I'll abide.



I've tried to smile and to laugh,

to shed only the happy tears,

but no matter what I try

I only have my fears



I'm as human as you are,

on the basest of levels, dears.

I want to love and be loved,

but I'm feeling so alone these past few years.



I'm sorry for worrying you,

for tainting & taking up your time,

But all I want to say

is to write today's last rhyme.



I'd like to apologize for

bringing you all down.

For making you unhappy,

or causing you to frown.



But I just cant take this

much longer, you can see,

so let me thank you all

for sticking by me.



I'm sorry for broken promises,

but I just can't seem to stop,

the things I'm trying to

avoid have finally caught up.



The thoughts in my skull

are going round and round-

and if you've a worried look, don't-

I'm not self-commiting to the ground.



I'ts just that I can't take this

much longer, my head is killing me

with all its ceaseless banter,

I'm unsure of a path I can't see.



I've fallen once too many,

make that twice or thrice

and my heart can't seem

to heal and let me be of ice.



I miss being loved, or at least

under the illusion that I was,

I miss being kissed, hugged and held,

and so here's the buzz:



I'm going and I've gone away,

for how long I don't know.

Whether I come back soon,

the scrying mirror doesn't show.



I'm making no more promises,

I'll be telling no more lies,

I'll do what I will to myself

I'll think and I'll devise



I want to be a princess again,

but I believe I lost that too

And don't take this to heart,

but I'm fed up with all of you.



I love you all, each so much

in every little way,

from friends

to aquaintances for a day.



Please don't take this badly,

It isn't you, you see,

But I wish with all my heart

that someone'd turn me off & fix me.



My head is hurting now,

so I'm guessing this is goodbye

Please keep your chin up darlings,

and don't you dare cry.



I'm not doing myself in,

I'm just taking a bit of a break

so my heart can try to heal,

I've had all that I can take.



You know I'll be back.
