crystal ruth Poems

You said that I deserved better,
so you told me that it was over.
But I don't deserve better;
I deserve you and only you.
...

On a cold chilly night
I sat and watched
my one true love
slowly die.
...

As we continue to grow
we will learn many things
and one of them is that
every good thing
...

I've seen the way
they treated you.
I've heard all the mean things
that they've said to you.
...

Always sat alone.
Always thought to myself.
I'd never said a word.
I'd never been outspoken
...

For fourteen years
all that I was known
was that I had a mother
I didn't know of.
...

All I'll ever be is me.
I'll always be Crystal Ruth.
And I'll always be the girl
who they continuously pick on.
...

From time and time again
you proceed to state
how you expect more from me,
how you expect me to reach
...

As you continue to stare at me
you'll see that there is only one me,
but if you choose to,
to dig down deeper
...

The past is the past.
So, learn and build from it.

The present is here, right now.
