Cold to the touch
You need gloves
If you want this
Type of sad love
I’m contaminated
Darkened by what
I have created
A painted cast
Upon fragments
Of chipped skin
Hoping this sin
Will disappear
With the wind
It always blows
Far away from
Who I used to be
These feelings
Don’t mean
Anything to me
I should feel
Something real
But I don’t know
How that’s possible
In this cast
It’s hard to move
But I’ll be able to
Once this month
Has passed, it
Won’t last me
More than the
Evening breeze
Here one instant
Gone the next
The breeze west
Will take away
Every single
Ounce of pain
This day will pass
These feelings
They won’t last
I’ll be okay
Tomorrow is
A brand new day
I’ll be alright
The next night
Won’t be made
Of fear and fright
I’ll be fine
Don’t worry
The light shines
I’m not in a hurry
The sun will rise
And the moon
Will set
I’ll be okay
The breeze
Will take
Me away
Beautiful
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteI really love this, Gabby. This is amazing, and I love how you arranged the lines--really sets the mood of the poem, in my opinion, along with the pace, which seems fast. This was beautiful. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lucy! That means a lot, I'm glad you felt the faster pace (which was how I wrote it.) Thank you again! :)
DeleteAwww, this is so pretty, Gabby. ( I hope you're okay. If anything, I'm here. :) )
ReplyDeleteThank you Shalymar, I'm okay, don't worry! <3 I really appreciate that, thank you again, you're the best :)
DeleteI LOVE this! So much meaning, and I really like how it shows even the shadows can bring light! Especially in dark times! Remind's me of that one CWC meeting, where you didn't come, but after 35 minutes and 34 seconds of waiting, you showed up just at the end! That made my day! So I can easily relate to this poem!
ReplyDeleteNote that the time above I did not count. (That would be weird)
Nice poem!
Haha! Thank you soooo much! Lol that's funny, at first I was like wait you really counted the minutes? XD Anyways thank you so much! I'm glad you could relate. :)
