Poetry

by: stephanie

This is a time in my life when everything should be going right
But instead I feel like it's all crashing down
Like there's a dark cloud looming overhead
Trapped inside, I can't find my way out of the darkness
Where will I find my light?
You say it's all ok
Like you think everything's going to work out fine between us
But we both know that isn't so
I'm hiding in shadows
And pushing along
All you do is drag my heart down scattering the pieces all around
One stupid mistake
Then you took everything away
You never gave me a choice
You ripped out my voice
Stole the one thing that I cherished most
At night you haunt my dreams
Bringing back dreaded memories of that night
Slowly I'm collecting all the pieces
Mending my heart
But in your pocket still you keep
One stolen piece
That I'll never get back...
