leanna markgraf Poems

Life hands you obstacles
that put you out of place.
Do not run and hide
life is something you need to face.
...

It was a dark and stormy night
the kind I like the best.
Worst kind of outcome
putting my pain to rest.
...

Somewhere over the rainbow
a perfect fantasy.
Is there such a place
where we can all be free?
...

You will never know what will happen
if you are too afraid to try.
Love makes you face your biggest fears
even if it is goodbye.
...

I need to tell you
before I let you go.
I have some secrets,
that I think you should know.
...

Close my eyes
and see a better place.
Instead of disappointment
spread across your face.
...

I stare in the mirror
and hate what I see.
A complete disaster
and that is all I will ever be.
...

The past I can only dwell on
I will never be the same.
No more smiles, just tears
you are the only one to blame.
...

I was scared to close my eyes
to greet what awaited me.
The memories I dreaded
about how dreams used to be.
...

Nights like these
my heart always shatters
I close my eyes
to see if it matters.
