Goodbye

by brokengirl   Mar 20, 2010


I'm sitting alone in my room
looking in the mirror
& trying to think of who i really am
& once again thinking of my life
how it's just passing me by..
how can it be like this?
i see a lot of pain, a lot of tears
there are a lot of days that i can only cry
i just want to say goodbye to everything
with every breath i take
i think of how i want to take one less.
i'm so confused
i never know what anyone wants from me
my heart is forever bruised
i feel like i can never be free.
people tell me to laugh ; don't look so sad
& not to cry
but i don't know what it's like
to be happy
& they don't know what it's like
to be like me.
stop telling me its not so bad
stop telling me that it is how it is
stop being so optimistic
& open your eyes
life sucks
no matter how much we deny it, it's true.
so don`t try to convince me to see things your way.
for so long i've been hoping things would turn out okay
but now my hope is fading away
so all that's left to do is say goodbye.

    I had some things to say and dont take that offensively. its a really good poem and i know what you feel and what you go through. i go through it everyday in my life. my heart is agape and bleeding from inside and out. i just understand you so well. you remind me of myself. and im younger than you. i just think that your poems relate to me in a way i cant even explain.. keep this up... i like what im hearing.
