Black And White Poem by Brett Roberts

In black and white, my heart falls across the page.
Jumping upon the stage for everyone to see.
I walk with a confidence in my step, making sure I will not fall behind.
Combined head and heart, they battle each other relentlessly.

Fists crashing right through my heart.
Everything I once believed, seems as far as the stars.
Tonight I will not settle with par.
Pick apart, and rebuild my broken heart.

When the sun shines, I make myself smile.
Tricking my mind into thinking this is right,
Even through everything has be so beguile.
I will dream of you tonight, even through it isn’t right.

In black and white, my heart falls across the page.
Jumping upon the stage for everyone to see.
I walk with a confidence in my step, making sure I will not fall behind.
Combined head and heart, they battle each other relentlessly.

Thoughts running through my head.
We were dancing upon a thread.
All the poems, I meant everything I said.
Thinking about it every time I go to bed.

She walks away, without a doubt in her mind.
I walk towards the place where I will find myself.
Devout wishes for my success in what I pressed on to do.
Left out in the cold, I have found something to live for. (myself)

In black and white, my heart falls across the page.
Jumping upon the stage for everyone to see.
I walk with a confidence in my step, making sure I will not fall behind.
Combined head and heart, they battle each other relentlessly.
