Beyond Us Poem by Angelique Wright

Heartache boxed in fear
wrapped in anger
taped with tears
ribboned in composure,
Bitterly.

Lovestruck
Awestruck.
Now my heart's struck
Temporarily.

Speared
The pain I feared
threatening to never disappear
unneccessarily.

Smiling, laughing, lying, crying
This pillow- the only one who knows
I'm dying.
Going through the motions
of trying not to feel emotion
for you.

Cold-hearted
Thinking you outsmarted
Me
Think again

All those evil eyes you've been recieving
should tell you something
about this thing
this sting
you know nothing
About me!

Not listening
Can't hear you out
Won't hear you out
Just want you out
Of my life.

Lies, mistook for truth
going back to youth
this way of thinking
everyone is honest
this thing was way beyond us
Anyway.
