Sarah Cotnam Poems

the pain
took me a while:
a while to accept,
a while to submit to it.
...

the sun pours over like a wave
feeling as good as they say
they told me to nurse your broken heart
but you say:
...

if only i
could just be
honest still
then maybe
...

wisdom is decided
after the great ideas
after the life unfolds
like stranger's sheets
...

Welcome to my secrets.
The gallery of glory,
the gloom and I'm sorry,
but no photographs please.
...

And maybe I could be just a little bit stronger
And maybe I could just hide
But to not have you any longer
I know I said I wouldn't miss you
...

choking; i cant breathe today
left you in your hotel home
where you will stay
and i will pack up and leave this place
...

i used to have my darkest days
i used to never sing nor play
i used to cry when no one would see
and wait for someone impatiently
...

when you feel as if you've lost your way
and the rain clouds up your sunny day
just breathe and say
i'll be okay
...

Let me be your voice of reason
I can see you need some help
You can't control your seasons
between your heaven and your hell
...
