For A Better Future Poem by Jessica Vera

As time gets closer for me to leave

I have slowly opened my eyes to see

That true friends may not exist

And love will forever be extinct.



As time gets closer for me to leave

I have noticed that I am free

But in another world I'm tied to grief

And can't find a way to leave this misery



The broken pieces of my heart

Vanished in this night so dark

Now all I seek is to escape

And never come back to this place.



Hoping for a better future when I come back.

A future with happiness, no more sad.

No more fake smiles or holding my tears.

Maybe my grief will disappear.



I shall be strong and not hold back.

I shall move on and not come back

To this depressing world that holds me down.

I shall be strong and not fall down.



This is for me and no one else.

I have to push and push myself

Cause if I don't neither will no one else

So this is for me and no one else! ! !
