Shannon Nicole Poems

You took my full innocence tonight,
I don't regret a thing.
I know sweet pain now,
But I also know worry and hurt.
...

They first walk into the basement,
Seated next to one another.
Her legs crossed as she's seated neatly,
He's grabbing the remote to switch the channel.
...

Isn't it funny when you could look around and think that you have it all,
But in reality,
You really have nothing at all.
Your friends aren't really your friends,
...

These tears are burning my throat,
But I dare not to let them fall.
I thought we were past this crying this,
It was just going to be a memory from then on.
...

There's a voice cooped up in the back of my head,
It's telling me to speak up,
Relax,
And Just be myself.
...

You said I looked like I wanted to say something,
But at the same time.. I was holding back.
I would bite my lip when you'd look at me,
Because there's something I didn't want to say.
...

How do you do it,
When you know you shouldn't.
How do you do it,
When it's not allowed.
...

A trunk covered in a massive amount of dust,
Victorian, gothic lining, a forest green.
A skeleton key like lock bolted to the trunk,
A faded silver shovel leaning in the corner across from it.
...

She could be anywhere in the world,
and she'd see his face.
A dark, cold breeze could rush passed,
and she'd somehow feel the warmth of his skin.
...

I've been told to go kill myself,
To go jump off a cliff,
To go die in a hole.
If only, if only is what I always said.
...
