raquel stevenson Poems

You tried to break me, tear me down.
Distruction is all you know.
And yet,
You couldn't destroy the unexpected beauty that is me.
...

I awoke this morning and felt a hole.
The familiar hole I have felt for years,
Decades.
Everytime I have to let you go away,
...

When finding yourself,
Don't forget those that loved you
Even though you were lost.
...

Its embarrassing to be that person.
To love someone that doesn't feel the same.
The saddness, patheticness.
The weakness.
...

Reality is love has been lost,
But friendship has been gained.
Reality is I am sad,
But will laugh again.
...

I touched you
I felt
I've loved you ever since.
Not together
...

When you lay on your back...crying
Tears drip in your ears.
Sucks.
...

I said, 'No one else sees me.'
You said, 'Let them.'
I let them.
I want to hide again.
...

I ache broken tears,
Bleed regret.
I can sense the moist,
See the red.
...

It had to be you?
Why?
You're the only one who could have.
