Jessica Gabanyic Poems

The moon shines brightly
Shining over the river,
Fireflies twinkling like little Christmas trees,
A bridge stands over the river
...

We are broken pieces of ourselves,
Constantly trying to hide what is broken,
The façade we put up,
Only hides what we wish people won't see,
...

Tears stain her face,
As she looks to the sky,
Her heart shattered
On the ground,
...

You stole my heart from day one,
Made me believe that you wouldn't leave,
And when things seemed to fall into place,
You left without a trace,
...

Shut off,
Locked inside,
Doors blocked,
Windows covered,
...

Her scars show her experience,
Physically she's stable,
Emotionally Numb,
Never trusting anyone,
...

People ask me,
What do you want to be?
I guess telling them,
What I truly want to be
...

People find you inferior,
They laugh and call you names,
They find you weak
When you cry,
...

Behind the willow Tree,
there lies a girl who's heart was shattered,
where tears were once shed and wiped away,
and where love was once proclaimed,
...
