Shelby Renee Poems

I know you need to go
This I won't deny
And I refuse to slow you down
So my concerns and thoughts I will hide
...

Have you ever felt the way I felt?
To feel like there's nothing that you can do to matter
To feel like you're the shadows of the day
To feel like every bit of happiness you get at least once has shattered
...

All I want is to be able to truly call you mine
I want for you to go to college, and be true
I want you to come back no matter how long the time
And to come back and then take me with you
...

If only they knew how they truly make me feel
They don't know what they've done to me inside
It's not like they would listen to me right now,
So my feelings and unpleasant thoughts for now I have to hide
...

If I could be anywhere I wanted at any time I choose
I would be in a few places at once

I'd start out in your heart. The heart that loves me with a love so real
...

I'm scared...im not gonna lie
I'm afraid of losing you...I want you to stay by my side
You say that we'll be together
And I believe you
...

*Do you believe me when I say that I love you? Because I do...with everything that I have
*When I told you that I'll wait for you? Because I'll wait however long I have to, as long as you wait for me
*When I tell you that I want to see you? I would spend every moment with you if I could
*When I told you there's no one else but you? You are the only person in this world that my heart belongs to
...

*My past is not the least bit pleasant or not even close to what you would call good
I've ran from people out of fear for my own actions...from not wanting to except the consequences...not fessing up like I should
*I've done so many things..things I'm not proud of...things that if could, I would take back
I've got nothing but a bunch of memories that I wish I could forget...but they still lurk in my head...things that make me not want to look back
...

Never say you're always gonna be there for someone
If all you're going to do is abandon them and leave them behind
Never say you'll always remember them
If you're gonna forget them and leave their memory behind
...

'I love' the way you hold me when you hold me ever so tightly
'I hear' every word you say, even if said slightly
'I see' the purity of you in your blues eyes, those eyes that I love so much
'I feel' the shock, the jitters, the safety, and the peace with every touch
...
