Derrick Andrews Poems

Fleeing from my feelings, desperately trying to hide,

I can't help but feel like I'm empty inside,
...

Neutrality and indifference, two things stuck inside my brain,

All of a sudden the extraordinary, seems so mundane,
...

My selfish, blind ignorance, may cost me the best,

Such a long journey, such a strenuous quest,
...

Contemplating on all of the things that I feel,

I've slowly started to wonder, is this love real?
...

As life goes on I can do nothing but shout,

from the pain and the torture, my anguish rings out,
...

My eyelids grow heavy, my body has taken all it can endure,

im miserable in the daytime, and sleep is my only cure,
...

Staring at my mirror, displeased and distraught,

reminiscing upon all the battles ive fought,
...

Life's trials and tribulations have all but worn me down,

my hopes an inhibitions lay in waste upon the ground,
...

Is he happy or not.. he cant even tell,

Everyday he goes through sum new kind of hell,
...

Everyday of my life, grows exceedingly harder,

My legs have grown weak, I can't go any farther,
...
