It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, “Always do what you are afraid to do.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hello everyone. I’d like to share a poem that I recently wrote out of nowhere. I decided to put it up on my blog. It is very different from the other poetry that I have written.
Warning: It is a bit darker. It also has nothing to do with Tourette Syndrome. It is also about a subject that happens in real life. Reader’s discretion is advised. I’ve always wanted to say that!
“Lie To Me”
Go on, go on and lie to me
Let your words drip off of your lips like venom
Let your mouth say something while your mind says something else
Let your eyes stay on contact with mine, though they’re begging to fall
Go on, go on and hurt me
Say you love me when you’re also saying it to someone else
Say you are mine forever when forever won’t last that long
Say you won’t hurt me again when you’ll do it once more
Go on, go on and intimidate me
Show me your gentle touch, when you’ll hit me harder later on
Show me kindness now, when you’ll just insult me more tomorrow
Show me your light side, when it’s just covering the dark
Go on, go on and leave me
Leave me in the darkness that you left behind, though it will someday go away
Leave me with my spirit crushed, though it will one day be fully mended
Leave me to cry my heart out, when in fact I am relieved you are gone for good
Hope you all have a wonderful day! :)
