Bury My Soul

by She Is My Rain   Sep 9, 2009


In the darkness I can never see
what stares back at me,
and for that I am eternally grateful.
My anger and sorrow
are the only things there.
Their mocking eyes dig
deep within my mind.
They burn through my heart
and light up my sky.

And I had thought
I could get away from this.
Simple words spoken,
I thought could cure.
But unwilling ears to listen
made it all obscure.
I feel like I've let you down.
The life I see in front of me,
just doesn't seem real anymore.
And not knowing if I'd ever
see you again,
is the worse feeling I've felt.

I've been told that
you don't care.
I've been told that
you don't deserve me.
But I find myself
wishing you'd be there.

I loved you then and
I love you now, but
the scariest thought,
is that I'll love you forever.
Even though forever is gone.

So I'll turn on the light
and face my anger and sorrow.
I'll push them aside
and try to move by.
I'll wipe the tears
that drown my eyes
and create a new heart.
I'll get by, even if
I have to bury my soul.

    That was a really good poem. i absoloutly loved its naturall rythm and flow. i really love poems written in this style as i feel they tell a story more than any other. the emotions where raw but captivating especially
    "My anger and sorrow
    are the only things there.
    Their mocking eyes dig
    deep within my mind."
    really good. the only thing i would advise you is change the line "But unwilling ears to listen" to But ears unwilling to listen. it makes the flow better and also makes more sense.
    5/5
