Rachel Brewer Poems

I bet this wasn’t what you expected,
When you came out with me that night.
I’m sorry I dragged you into it,
When they came at us to fight.
...

Darkness spreads throughout the trees,
And the moon begins to glow.
Crackling of the fallen leaves,
Makes my breathing slow.
...

Let me sleep.
I just want to be numb,
And feel nothing.
So please let me sleep.
...

You were the boy who lived round the corner,
You were the one I was with all the time,
You were the one I went to the park with,
You were the one who kissed me for the first time.
...

When you finally realise who you are,
Hold on.
Don’t let people change you.
You don’t know the strength you have inside.
...

I was such a fool when it came to love,
I didn’t know what to do.
I would try to be myself, but nothing seemed to work,
I could never really impress you.
...

Do you think you can defeat me?
With only that weapon in your hand?
Do you really think you can defeat me?
All by yourself?
...

I want to look into your eyes,
Really look.
I want to see you.
...

When will you realise?
That your meant to be with me.
I’ve been in love with you for a while now,
And I think you like me back?
...

I’m writing this at your funeral.
As I watch all the people in tears.
I wish I could join them,
But I know I have to be strong.
...
