Jessica Cummings Poems

He sighed into to the the night 'I'm lonely'
He cried himself into sleep
I whispered from the shadows 'I'm here for you'
But alas, he could not hear me
...

I hate how I love you
more than I should
when you're gone
Why didn't I love you
...

Trapped
mundane
dark
low
...

Once upon a time I dreamed of you
Just like the other times I always do
But this time you spared me my voice
And said everything I'd wanted to say
...

I almost bought a guitar today
I almost got a tattoo
I almost finally figured out
How to tell you I love you
...

I thought I was done
I thought you were gone
and all that was left was vestige
but here I go again
...

Crippling thoughts

They run through my head
From almost my time of waking
...

Too many questions
Not enough answers
Hey little Head
Meet Mr. Wall
...

I was filled with sad
-ness yet tears won't slide. Outside
the rain does for me.
...

Too bad that its over
When it had hardly just begun
I wasn't head over heels for you
True
...
