Beautifully Broken

Here's a short poem that I wrote while I was in the hospital....




The rain stops and the snow begins to fall,
I look through the window and suddenly I see it all.
Do I continue to look down and frown at the ground?
It's as if I forgot how to stand tall.

I remember who I was before but it's as if no one else can see.
Everyone else has forgotten but all I want to be is me.
I try to stay strong but the memories never leave,
What a tangled web we weave that first time we deceive.
I have to stay strong and be myself no matter what...
and I'm sorry but if you're tryna hate I just don't give a fuck.

Trust is essential but I don't see it anymore.
It's time I closed my eyes and opened up that door.
I have to forget the hateful words around me and follow my heart.
'Cause when you're caught up in others problems sometimes your heart gets torn apart.




Real Talk!
