Rachel BaByBeAr Anderson Poems

I sit here waiting for someone to speak
hours later it seems
no-one is interested in me
'cause without a partner you're not worth talking to
...

The nib sprints across the smooth white surface
Aching limbs strain to keep a pace
Eyes strain againgst the headache
Ticking reviberates off the walls whistling me to hurry
...

Times like these make me think
life truely is a stitch
waiting to be unraveled
waiting to be tangled
...

When alone i watch the sky
and try to picture you at my side
see the white clouds pass by
trying hard not to cry
...

Im moving across this board
No-one to defend me
I am always the first to go
...

Im fed up with looking
and not seeing
Im fed up with listening
and not hearing
...

Have you ever lived in a world so blind
it couldnt see itself ripping out its own mind
I've seen many days and countless nights
watching endless brawls and fights
...

Im glad to have some real friends
those who would listen to my troubles
instead of merely speaking theirs
...

Why is it so hard, to find someone who cares?
Someone who's willing to catch these tears?
It's always hard to find someone who'll be there
To catch you when you fall
...

Fallen from the skies
Held here too long
Rippled with pain
Lost so much
...
