PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I feel that part of me still running

Like a child from the demons beneath a bed

I only wish you had said

Don't worry, nothing can get to you

Without going through me



Lately, I've been thinking about then

The way you comforted the weakness in me

And all so unselfishly

Like I was the reason you were

The way you are



Now, reason seems to be failing me more and more

I can see it sailing in the distance from this sandy shore

My only prayer is that you're on it

And safe from the approaching storm



I feel it slowly becoming a part of me

This brokeness is braking before my eyes

The consequence of the lies

That I told myself on every occasion

I realized you were gone



Lately, I've begun looking inside

Through the rubble that kept me content

But it was selfish

Thinking it was completely you

Who brought me where I am



Oh, God, forgive me

This time I need forgiveness

I'm finished with sympathy



Now, reason seems to be failing me more and more

I can see it sailing in the distance from this sandy shore

My only prayer is that you're on it

And safe from the approaching storm
