Unknown Rosa Poems

"Are you okay? " He asked.
That question,
The question I've been waiting my whole life for.
And when the words release into the air,
...

I hate you with every bone in my body
Every ounce of blood that flows from my scars
Every vein that twists and turns
Every tear that rolls down my face
...

I laughed so they said: "Aren't you embarassed? "
I cried so they said: "Why don't you smile? "
I smiled so they said: "She is showing off."
I frowned so they said: "Her real personality has become apparent."
...

Do you think the coast is clear?
No one to see, no one to hear
Me sing out my song?
I think we're all alone
...

A pit of grief.
A thunderstorm of fury.
A waterfall of pain.
An emptiness inside.
...

(IN PROGRESS / INCOMPLETE)
It came too close to home to finish. It feels incomplete - there's so much more to be written - but I don't know if I'll ever get back to it.

...

So many conflicted feelings
I do not know what to do
I am trapped in a void of my own self-doubts
I am trapped in this relationship
...

People believe I am okay.
People believe I will be okay.
But I am not
I cannot keep this up much longer
...

The gnarled roots of my past
Have left me in quiet despair
I know not what I seek
Only what I am here to share
...

There's a place to know, a place to see
Light is shining, all around me
There's a place that I go, people I meet
My heart shatters in two, but not from the heat
