Damian Leonard Poems

Everyone has their edge of a cliff.
You kissed someone you're ashamed of,
You cheated on a test,
You're bullied all the time,
...

Light in the darkness scares me.
I have to feel,
I need to feel, to feel real.
But then you left.
...

The stars shone down on the road you had taken,
They followed you on your path and thought, 'him.'
They smiled at your cheek,
They laughed at your wit,
...

Autumn leaves still fall
Trees remain tall

Mountains still stand
...

It's not so much a closet as it is a prison
A cell where your mind takes over
It tells you you're wrong
That no one will like you
...
