Lost in a deep serenity,
Debris of a broken heart,
Loving so much what you know is gone,
Serenity soon becomes haunting.

Watching it slip through your fingers,
You can’t catch the falling pieces.
Watching love leave, helpless, hopeless,
And to be forgotten in the memory of that whom you love…

It’s worse than death.

Incandescent joy,
Buried so deep,
Behind the faces of all the pain,
Somewhere it can hide.

Biting back your tears,
Chewing your tongue to cut off words,
Otherwise so easily spoken.
Somewhere within you they’ll hide.

Watching your wanting walking away,
Watching your spirit fall behind,
Watching your feelings being tormented by the wind
Of time that’ll never slow down.

Wait for me, please.

God I'm feeling like shit latley lol. That's the best thing about poetry--you can vent very cryptically. People will read the poem and like it without you having to explain where it came from. Good stuff.

Is it that I want to live, or that i'm afraid to die? Is it that i'm dead inside, or afraid to try? Am I worth the space... am i worth your time?

That was great. Loved it. And you said that I can write? You lie! You have so much more talent than I do... It was great... Saddening considering my circumstances but I think it summed up alot of what I'm currently feeling in a way that I could never get out in my poems.
