Silence

Nobody asked me, and I haven't told

The secrets that I keep locked in my soul

The pain, the fear, the hurt, the shame

All hidden behind a mask of fame

I've given up on ever being heard

My thoughts and feelings, like a prison, blurred

I wear this mask of strength and grace

But inside, I'm just a hopeless case

I've tried to reach out, but it's no use

My cries for help are just another excuse

I'm trapped in this cycle, day by day

Nobody cares, so why should I say?

I've lost all hope in myself and in others

I'm just a shell, like a withered flower

Nobody asked me, and I haven't told

But it doesn't matter.

 My story will never be told.

I'll just fade away in silence and despair

Nobody will know, nobody will care

But that's okay because it's just who I am

A lost soul in a world that doesn't give a damn

Farewell to Family

The last goodbye is said,

To parents and siblings dear,

As we hold on to the thread,

Of a love that's always near.

We say farewell to what was,

From the childhood that we knew,

But in our hearts, there's a buzz,

Of love, that will always be true.

We'll remember the laughter,

And the tears that we shared,

For in our hearts forever after,

You will always be there.

Though we may be apart,

Our bond will still remain,

For in our hearts, a part of you,

Will forever remain.

The last goodbye is said,

But it's not the end,

For in our hearts, you'll always be,

Our family, our closest friends.

We'll carry your love with us,

As we journey on ahead,

And in every step we take,

We'll know you're there, with us, in our hearts,

Until we see you again.

Anticipation's Embrace

In anticipation's grasp,

Grief takes hold so tightly,

As we wait for what must pass,

Our hearts feel heavy, rightly.

We know what's yet to come,

But cannot change fate,

So in our minds, we hum,

A mournful, endless wait.

We grieve for what will be,

And all that will be lost,

For memories yet to flee,

At any cost.

We fear the final goodbye,

The end of what we know,

But in this grief, we find,

A love that continues to grow.

We hold on to the past,

And all the moments shared,

For in anticipatory grief,

Love is always bared.

So let us embrace this pain,

And find comfort in the tears,

For in anticipation's embrace,

Our loved ones are always near

Breaking the Spiral: A Poem on Overcoming Negative Emotions

When the shadows start to creep,

And the darkness starts to seep,

Into my mind, my heart, my soul,

I feel a weight that makes me whole.

A spiral starts to take me down,

A spiral of emotions that I can't drown,

The negative thoughts that swirl around,

A never-ending cycle that can't be found.

A voice inside my head speaks,

Of all my fears, my doubts, my weaknesses,

It tells me I'm not good enough,

That I'll never rise above this stuff.

But I know that this is not true,

For in the darkness, light shines through,

A glimmer of hope that I must seek,

To break the chains of this negative peak.

So I'll take a deep breath and try again,

To push away the shadows and let the light in,

For I know that I am strong and brave,

And in the end, I'll rise above this wave.

One Sided Love

One-sided love, 

a lonely game,

A love that's not returned,

 with no one to claim.

A love that's hidden,

 A love that's true.

A love that's unrequited,

 A love that's blue.

It's a love that's whispered in

 silent prayers,

A love that's kept hidden, 

away from stares.

It's a love that's meant to be

 kept inside,

A love that's meant to be 

kept to reside.

It's a love that's built on 

a dream,

A love that's built on

 a silent scream.

It's a love that's meant to be

 unrequited,

A love that's meant to be

 denied.

But true love is a

 different thing,

A love that's pure, 

a love that's ring.

It's a love that's built on,

 trust and care,

A love that's built to,

 last and repair.

So let go of the one-sided love,

And find one that will,

 lift you above.

For true love is worth the wait,

And will make your heart

 truly great.
