Ships are but boards, sailors but men.


I wish I could jump out of my head, I wish my head could jump off of my shoulders and start walking towards my fears and start dancing, dancing more than I could ever dance, dancing and shaking, shaking off all those terrors that haunt me, they haunt me because I let them in,

 

I let them in so I wouldn't be alone, I was alone do to my lack of caring, and my lack of caring was because I didn't want to get hurt, I never wanted to get hurt, I'd already been betrayed, I was betrayed because I never looked both ways, I didn't look both ways cause I thought someone had my back, but their face disappeared into their own selfishness and lack of campassion, and that's how I began to let in my biggest fears,

 

I see my story as an irreversible one, I see my failures as glue, glue that sticks to me with no mercy, I see my heart as something crushed, to the point that I created a new one, one with no depth, it's so shallow, and so I begin to let my  fakeness seep in, I see my mind, but only for a split second before it begins to drift away, I now see nothing, I became so blind that I cry out, hoping someone will come, but they won't, I'm all alone now, because I let my fears in.

This poem was inspired by my lonliness, and the many causes behind it. I hope somone can learn from it and relate to it.
