Kelsey Martinson Poems

My hero's aren't in comics
My hero's don't wear capes
My hero's don't battle mythical
Monsters
...

I was scared
To call mine
For fear of
Attention
...

We are scared
Of the unknown
Of the things
We can't change
...

Lie
Tell me everything's okay
Lie and say
That this hurt I feel
...

I want to be remembered
Not for the things I tossed
Not for the friends I lost
Not for the love I didn't
...

Life comes
Then it goes
Not picking favorites
But simply taking
...

Memories are a distant dream
Memories created from you and me
Memories of you and I
Memories left there to die
...

'I didn't know'
Is what she says
'I'm so sorry'
I can't stand
...

They told me to fight
But they didn't say
How
They told me to grow up
...

I hate goodbyes
How they have the power
To bring tears to my eyes
How the simple word
...
