'I Am. abandoned' poems

Do you ever have such an impeding thought -and it's generally when you're really sad or passionate about something- that you can't describe. Sometimes you're not even able to form words in your own head to describe a situation.

Have you ever heard the phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words"? As a teen I wrote poems that expressed my angst in ways I couldn't speak. These are some of them.

Crushed

​

The sound was like thunder,                           

The crumbling of your heart.

I’m all to blame.

I’ve never hurt anyone’s soul

Until        now.

 

The feelings hurts

More than you can imagine.

I hold out my hand again

But my fingers go limp

Against my side.

 

You don’t know you have

a good thing until it’s gone.

I broke your heart

But you took mine with you      too.

I am crushed.

 

The sun hurts my eyes

Because brightness is so unlike

My   soul.

I only know foolishness

And loss.

 

If I wouldn’t have acted

On my notions

I would smile at

The sun.       and at you.

Raging Skies

If my tears were galaxies

The stars would shine brilliantly.

All of my scared thoughts and fears

Would be rainbows

Illuminating by thoughts.

I would sing but not for joy

For the weight of the tears

On my mind

Are too heavy for me to handle.

If the rainbows shone

It would show all of you

The scared me that

You don’t see

Galaxies would collide with

Rainbows

And all beauty

Would be

Gone
