Surprise!

Every time I see the name I cry
I struggle to think of it without a sigh
I've worked hard to put it out of my mind
And yet it creeps up and takes me by surprise.

Night

I want to cry
I want to die
I want to sleep
This night away.

The scariest thing of all.

Do you know what it's like
to be scared?
Every day to wonder.

Betrayed

How can someone
Just decide
They no longer
Want to know you?

Despair

These feelings that fill me
They aren't so good
These feelings that threaten to overtake me
They absorb everything else

Desolate

It's devastating
When a person you love
Shuts you out.

Insomnia

It's 2 am,
The clock is ticking
And yet
Here I lie wide awake

Walk away

The revelation is sudden
It comes as news
I am not the problem
The issue to solve?

Conflicting emotions

I know I've done the right thing by me
So why does it feel so bad?
I know that for my peace of mind
And to keep my sanity strong
I must do what I have done.

Broken

I feel despair cascading through me
Like waves rolling onto the beach
Slow and steady yet ever increasing
Taking over the sandy shore
