Month: September 2018

Everybody
Wants to
Go there
Except me

So much time
Is spent here
Why wouldn’t
Someone try
To find happiness
In the same place as well?

You make me
Want to
Stand still
And wait
For you
To say
It’s okay
To move on

In the grand scheme
People are nothing
And it’s up to
Each person to
Tattoo themselves
With value

Did I get
To where
I was going?
Did I find
What was needed
Along the way?
Even if I did
Why did I ever
Feel that way?

Know not
What direction to go
But I have to
Decide soon
As long as I don’t stay though
My soul feels like a lead balloon

Why does one’s
Self-worth
Heavily depend
Upon the attention
Given by those
Cared about?

Don’t want to be
The shameless
Puppy chasing
After you

Will I be
Missed as
Much as you
Will be if I
Ever had to
Leave?

I can’t promise you
Forever
If you won’t share
Today
With me–
But maybe
That’s the whole point
