“Im still here…”

I whisper

I’m slumped in the dirt

Listening to the world move around me

“I’m still here”

I whimper

I tilt my head up and look at the candle

It burns bright as if its never caused any harm

“I’m still here!”

I cry

The fire burns bright in my vision

His screams fill my ears, my head!

“IM STILL HERE”

I sob

I remember the night sky

Fire

It was everywhere

I couldn’t get out

I...

What if every moment mattered

What if you got through all the darkness in your life

What would be on the other side?

What if everything happened for a reason

What if those who lost hope ,

Had more of a chance of finding it again.

We might feel like we can’t go on

But if you pursue your dreams

If you clear the heavy fog of your shoulders

If you light up the darkness

Will you find your destiny?

...

Dawn still rises, slowly, stubbornly

As the day begins

And you know you have to get up

You know you have to work

Half the world wakes up

Half the world goes to bed

You work through the day

You push at their buttons

You pull at their heartstrings

You prod at their brains

And they do the same to you

And yet the world still spins around

For it doesn’t wait for those that stumble

Time still flies

...

I know you abandoned me at sea

You think you lost me

They think your the hero of this story

She thinks you found me

But

I will reveal you

You’ll lose the one dream you pursue

They’ll find out its not true

She will reach a break through

Cuz baby you’re playing with fire

Not my best poem but l really wanted to make a poem with some of these lines so yah…...

‘Tis easy to get lost in the underworld

To fall into a pit of despair

To lose all hope when you walk through the doors

To lie down and not want to get up ever again

But

‘Tis possible to get out of the maze

To love and hope and dream

To feel the cool breath of the wind on your skin

To watch the sunrise in the early morning

To hear the birds sing

To watch the stars sparkle

To want to just merely e...

You’re lost

Lost in the fog that’s blinding you

Stuck

Stuck in between the shouts

Stuck in between the fighting

Frozen

You can’t move

You’re in a game you don’t want to play

This game is not a fun game

Yet somehow you’ve ended up in all the chaos

And yet again

You can’t move

You’re a piece in their game

Being boxed in by the shouts

Somehow your either caught up in the middle of it

Or your talk...

Sometimes we wake up

And go through the motions of life

Smile when expected

The hapiness that held us up,

Becoming echos fading into the distance

I can’t move

I’m frozen

Time and space shrinking

Boxing me in

I need help

The paper and the pen

Sitting on the desk

That is my refuge

So i sit down

And write

Guys thanks so much for being an awesome community! I posted a piece of writing and within sec...

A knock

That was all it took

And yet somehow,

I had been so caught up

I had never noticed IT before

IT, being ME

Sitting in the mirror

Waiting for ME to look up

To realize that I was there

Telling me to stop running from the THINGS

The THINGS were the shadows

Chasing ME everywhere

Around every corner i turned

Trying to get ME to notice

I was running away from MYSELF

MYSELF was all the things I...

The gunshot rings out

I fall

Everything hurts

And I can’t do anything

I’m stuck

Frozen in this moment

Physical pain

The gunshot rings out

I fall before it even hits me

My mind is a bruised battlefield

Filled with guilt

Knowing that if i fall

There will be no one left

Mental pain

The gunshot rings out

I fall down

I was the last one

When i take my final breath

We will be extinct

I cry out

Pain

...

Walk along the ridges of the mountain

Never look down

Keep pace with the antelopes

And follow the curves of the valley

Dip your toes in the river

And catch a firefly

Tumble down the hill

And step through the garden

And finally,

The wishing tree

The firefly instantly calms down

Settling on your palm

And you make the wish

In front of the glistening willow

Firefly’s dance around it

A vision...
