LETTER HIDDEN AWAY

Ink in pen I begin the flood

My hand writes the words I need to say

Every detail now laid bare

So you know how you left me in despair

I explain why I'm hiding away

Why I no longer want your embrace

Then Slowly I fold the letter and tuck it away

Too afraid to share

Grey Sun

The sun shining bright smiles upon smiles embracing it

Slowly, so slowly a crack forming on the surface

The light escaping, wary eyes watching

As the sun becomes dull

Earth fading into darkness

The sun no longer bright

The orange that once was our hope

Now grey and casting its doom

Brightness no longer existing

We only share the darkness

The sun never shines again

Broken from those who turned it grey

Words Fail Me

All these words fail me

Each one should set me free

Painted poetry on my walls

A reminder of the wars

No pain can cover the words I have written

My hands Tookeep painting poetry on top of them

Hoping one day the walls will be clear

And my poetry will be the reason

Seeing Clear

Some day

The sun will rise

My eyes will finally see clear

The entangled branches

Will break away from my soul

The thorns within my heart

Will fall on the floor

I will realise the truth

And run with broken legs

Far away from you.

You break me down

You break me down

With words of frown

Words of hurt

Hatred and repulse

Sickening nausea

Building within me

Tears threatening to fall

Sobs building

I tried but I failed

You make it known

I'm like your mother

More than your lover

Your disgust in my failings

As the meal isn't to your flavour

My best never good enough

You crave my flaws

So your words can drag me

To the floor.
