Taking Over Poem by Kayla Jacobs

Taking Over



why won't these feelings leave me be
they are fighting inside of me
telling me it's okay to feel the way i feel
i put my hopes up way too high
only to watch as them fall down from the sky
picking myself up over silly feelings
of love i once knew
he promised never to leave me
said he’d catch me when i'm bleeding
pain scratching up my arms
as hurt slices open my heart
heart-broken but still in love
waking up to another sun
another day of living without him
there isn't enough pain to tell him how i feel
tell him how i'm sorry
and how i worry
how i'm scared he has found another
how i'm sick and tired of hurting
i tried explaining how i feel
only to get them pushed down
like they don't matter
these bottled feelings are taking over
i don't want to disappear
only to realize how lost i am in the world beyond here
