Maura Hunt Poems

He destroyed your confidence, girl,
He’s the cause of your pain, girl
You got to be stronger than that, girl
Innocent girl you once were.
...

Don't touch that peice of glass,
you know it has sharp edges.
You know that it will cut you,
But you continue to pick it up.
...

You try to make the world feel sorry for you.
By complaining about yourself everytime you speak to it.
You have no critical problems
so look at the world around you suffering.
...

Listen,
the dead are calling you to join them.
They speak such wise words to convince you.
Allow them to over-power you.
...

Don't let the darkness consume you.
You're much stronger than that.
You're more a fighter than a peasant.
You're more the sun than the moon
...

You're one step closer to the edge.
One breath closer to the end,
You're walking towards a flower on the ground,
The chains around your ankles keep you bound.
...

My heart lies in peices on the floor
But it doesn't really matter anymore.
Nothing I said was ever good enough
And the edges of my heart are jaged and rough
...

I find it so easy to look into your eyes.
I feel drawn to you whenever you're in my presence.

You stare at me with empty eyes.
The butterflies eat at my stomach.
...

I reach out to hold onto the little bit that's left of us
but the farther i reach,
the farther it slips away.
And the farther it slpis away,
...
