Katie Anon Poems

I think of you with a heavy heart
Confused why it has ended like this
Why it has so torn me apart
To destroy someone without a second thought
...

When I say I'm OK when my heart disagrees
Each time my smile hides the hurt
Or when my wants I do not assert
...

I know why caged birds still sing
Even without the feel of the wind
Trapped within a home of solid bars
Without view of sky, sun or stars
...

Sun setting in the sky
Is the day's way of saying goodbye
As the moon grows bright
It is welcoming in the night
...

Your story is your own to write
Each moment adding to the plot
You can control your character
But so many other things you can not
...

You say to just let down the walls around

They are what keep you trapped in the dark
...

You are the source of much conflict and fear

The voice that whispers in my ear
...

What is it that makes me want to avoid this world?
Escape into a world of nothingness
Or to hurt myself so much for just a moment of pleasure
Why are these thing I seem to treasure?
...

I write to you diamonds in the sky

For they say you will grant each a wish
...

I built a fort around me, walls to keep me safe

I kept my heart and feelings behind it
...
