Aimee Nell Poems

You fell so hard,
And lay there bleeding,
Refusing the hands reaching
To offer you the help you need.
...

So I stay
To listen to your words.
Speaking of nothing
Speaking of everything.
...

So do you want me to shed a tear for you?
I've saved you a thousand.
Do you want me to bleed for you?
I'll show you the scars.
...

You were the light,
That led me through the storm when I'd wander off the path.
You were the one,
That held my hand when I was frightened.
...

I lie awake at night,
The silence pressing down on me.
I feel the tears run down my face,
As I become lost,
...

Look!
Look,
And tell me what you see.
Just the green grass,
...

Falling
-
And I fall,
And I fall.
...

Promise
-
And as I rush down the river
The branch holds me up.
...

Because I'm not ashamed to say I need you.
You're my hope.
You're my light.
You're my soul.
...

So we stand side by side.
And we breathe in the ashes of all our past mistakes.
But we direct a smile at one another,
Because we know we still have each other.
...
