Sitting in this room
Overcome with gloom
Out of every corner
The darkness will loom.
...
Since you left every day is hard.
Holiday's aren't for celebrating
They are for faking smiles and laughter
While praying to survive.
...
I don't know why you did this, why did you treat me this way? Was it all just a game you like to play?
Did y'all sit around together and make up new lies and new alibis? Did you enjoy the tears you made me cry?
...
When I said you broke me
You misunderstood
I know that was your intention
But you aren't that good.
...
As I lay here praying for sleep, Thoughts flood my mind, And I begin to weep.
As Realizations come to light Why couldn't I see what was in plain sight?
...
I am 58 years young. I used to write poetry all the time when I was young and life was easy. When life became busy I didn't have the time to write. Then in 2017 I lost my son and my world shattered and everything stopped. I recently started writing again and instantly remembered how therapeutic it is to write my feelings and emotions and memories in the form of poetry. I just came across this app and I'm going to start sharing some of my writings and see how it goes.)
Dear Lord
As I cry myself to sleep
I ask the lord for comfort
and peace.
What have I done
In this life to bring
Me such grief and
Strife.
Every night as I weep
I pray he'll show me
While I sleep
I hope one day I'll
Understand
Why my life
didn't Go as planned on
I've lived and learned
I've loved and I've lost
But noone knows at
Just what cost.
So as I cry myself
To sleep, please
Dear Lord
Grant me peace.
