Jessica Gabanyic Poems

You'll never know,
You'll never know a person,
Never know their story
Unless they have told you,
...

Laying in your bed,
I watched the sun come up,
And listened to you breath,
Your arm crossed over your face,
...

Look past my brown eyes,
Look past the walls that I have built,
Look just beyond the pain and confusion
And there you will see the fear and loneliness,
...

He stands in front of me,
Holy and perfect,
Sinless and fearless,
He stands,
...

With a broken heart,
I vowed to never trust again,
Then I was forgotten,
Misplaced and forever lost,
...

I have doubted my reality,
Where real and right were one,
I have doubted myself,
Causing my own mistrust,
...

Nobody understands,
Just how hard living can be,
We walk alone,
Eat alone,
...

If I ever have a baby girl,
I'd tell her to be cautious,
And when she would ask,
I'll tell her exactly why,
...

America used to be,
Courageous,
People who would fight for us,
Rather than against us,
...

If you see this,
You're more special then you think,
Your world may be crumbling,
And you feel there isn't anything left,
...
