I Have... Poem by Katrina Olson

I have skeletons under my bed
I have secrets inside my head
I have stories that make me mad
I have memories that make me sad
I have a heart that can barely keep a beat
I am standing on my own two feet
I have the ability to cry
I have the want to try
I don't have happiness inside me
That's why I continue to die slowly
Day by day I survive
Night by night I strive
My skeletons under my bed
Keep the secrets inside my head
The memories and stories that make me feel alive
Are the ones that make the darkens thrive
No longer standing on my feet
My heart can finally keep a beat
Slowly dying day by day
No one ever hearing the words that I say
Only know dreams of where I die
Head full of memories making me cry
The end for me is here
Hearing my skeletons whispering in my ear
No more secrets in my head
When I dream of my body lying dead.
