Rachel Brewer Poems

I came home one day to find,
All my mirrors broken, and I know why.
It was you, my ghost, who lurks through the house.
You smashed them so you wouldn’t have to see.
...

If you want something, you have to fight for it.
I mean really fight,
To keep whatever that may be in your life forever.
Fight for love,
...

Why did you have to go and leave me that day?
The memory of you still floods my mind.
Every minute of every hour,
Every day of every year.
...

I felt the gun behind me,
You pushed it against my back.
I knew you would pull the trigger.
You were insane.
...

Don’t give up on your dreams.
If you don’t dream, what have you got to look forward to?
Dreams are what keep us going,
They look to the future,
...

You have to be strong.
If you aren’t strong, life will swallow you, eat you alive.
You have to fight for what you believe in.
You have to fight for what you want.
...

What happens to people in their last moments is what really matters.
Make sure they remember the good in their life.
Tell them that they mean the world to you.
And that you will never forget them.
...

Don’t let me stop you, if you want to leave.
I don’t want you to pretend you love me.
My heart has been broken before.
So you can go,
...

What do you think is magic?
A first kiss?
Your first child?
Or the unbelievable.
...

Don’t get me wrong,
Yesterday was a bad day for me.
But today.
Today is even worse.
...
