I knew you were listening
Whenever I talked to you
You could see behind the smile
A friend like you was true
...
Is it funny to think
This world we live in
Could hold all your darkest fears?
...
I'm cold and alone
I feel so unhappy
Where are are the people
I've heard are called family
...
I'm all dressed up
I'm sitting here waiting
But what am I waiting for
No one is coming
...
Have you had your parents let you down?
Broken promises
Not been there for you
Not supported you whole-heartedly
...
The silence is so suffocating
Your anger speaks so softly
Like a little voice inside my head
I know this wont end soon
...
Just another voice in my head
Just another day in my bed
Hiding from the world it seems
I wonder what this all means
...
Why do I feel as if I'm standing on the edge
of a cliff,
Waiting for someone to push me into the cold
river below.
...
I cry myself to sleep
Like, very single night
I feel as if I'm broken
I can't do anything right
...
I just can't deal with it
My life is just a blur
It's like someone grabbed a spoon
Put my life in a bowl, and stirred
...
No trust in this house
Lies all around
Skeletons in the closet
Secrets burried underground
...
It took only a quick hello,
And a few spoken words.
She was swept off her feet,
He felt they shared the same world.
...
I know what it's like
To be really stressed
All alone and sad
Down and deeply depressed
...
Leprechauns and fairies
Play by the brooke
If you are quiet
You may have a look
...
I'm torn to shreds
My heart is in shatters
Somebody broke it
But like it matters
...
There were two people
From worlds so different
But when they came together
Everything was perfect
...
A pink and red sunset,
White and yellow flowers.
In this little medow,
Sit the two lovers.
...
The blade is blunt
My wrists are red
I'm crying so much
All the time I've spent
...
This story is for the children whose stories have never been told,
The ones that keep it to themselves until they are old.
Prologue:
...
People who see their fathers,
Like practically everyday,
Should love them like there's no tomorrow,
Even if you think he may never go away.
...
My name is Sharna, I am 17. I have been writing since I was very young but only started to care at the age of 13. I love hearing what people have to say about my poems and I can take criticism easy, as long as you're not being nasty.)
Goodbye, My Friend
I knew you were listening
Whenever I talked to you
You could see behind the smile
A friend like you was true
I felt lucky to know you
You were always there
It made me smile to know
That at least you cared
I thought you'd stick with me
Until the very end
It's all the things we'd been through
And all the time we'd spent
You were my twin
Like sisters for life
You coudn't seperate us
Not even with a knife
But now times past
You've left me now
Now you're so distant
Like a pen pal
I'll say my goodbye now
And save the pain later
Goodbye my old friend
You were like my sister
