Matt Young Poems

1.

Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Is my life everything you thought it would turn out to be
Am I on the straight and narrow
Or do I stray like a broken arrow
...

Harsh words & violent blows
Hidden secrets nobody knows
Eyes are open, hands are fisted
Deep inside I'm warped & twisted
...

3.

Simple words come from complex feeling
Underneath this shell the truth reveling
How I feel you may never know
The truth is I don’t know how to let you go
...

I sit here quietly listening to a song
And I can hear you humming along
So much time has passed since we last met
I fear you may soon forget
...

5.

As I lay here in the dark
I wait to feel your spark
My body’s lifeless on the floor
Waiting for you to come through that door
...

Lately it’s been hard to write
I think it’s because you’re out of sight
I’ve finally lost you, this time for good
So many things still left to say, I just wish I could
...

Something has gotten you down
From miles away I can see you frown
The world you live in is so unfair
And I know you feel like no one cares
...

Lately I've been drinking like there's a message in a bottle.
I can't help that it makes this life easier to swallow.
Imma take off in this like, no path left to follow.
If you ain't here for me your just as hollow.
...

Matt Young Biography

my name is Matt. as you will notice most of my poems are about a girl i lost a long time agon. to tell you the truth i never really had her. i grew up in a small town with a single mother and a father who never came around. the one man i looked up to died when i was 5, but he passed on to me a love for sports and while he was abusive, he also taught me how women should be treated. for some reason with me he was completely different than he was with my grandmother. my mom said he worshiped the ground i walked on. while this doesnt make him a good person the lessons i learned from him i carry with me to this day.)

The Best Poem Of Matt Young

M1

Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Is my life everything you thought it would turn out to be
Am I on the straight and narrow
Or do I stray like a broken arrow
Does my heart beat with foolish pride
Or does my blood boil like the crimson tide
I know my choices aren’t always clear
But eventually you have to learn to live with this fear
Something swells inside my soul
As you stand on the outside begging me not to let go
You’re not responsible yet you’re the one to blame
Tell me dear are to sick of this game
Stop being afraid and tell someone how you feel
Maybe then this life will start to be real
So many choices still yet to be made
And still you tell me you’re just too afraid
So maybe you’re not perfect, but who the hell is
Please open up your heart, don’t close this lid
This is me speaking I’m inside your mind
I’m the one that you tried to leave behind
The time has come to open up your self
Don’t leave everything to know hanging on the shelf
Only you can turn your life around
And see the person waiting to be found
