Sit With You
So often I feel so tired the whole world comes crumbling down around me,
so many times the ones I need to stay get up and leave when I need them to stay,
so much for feeling like I have any worth left when I’m too worn to live with myself.
Every day I’m made to watch my burdens grow larger by the person,
every moment my breath tells me of the air I rob from the people around,
every second I believe I will never be more than the stain I painted myself to be.
To all the torture that plays its part in my day to day I plead,
to all the relived scenarios I cannot erase that repeat without an end,
to every single second that feels like an eternity inside this broken brain.
Am I ever going to heal from the pain I was born to endure?
Am I ever to move on from the worthlessness that’s so pure?
Am I ever to see more than the trauma that’s there to ever insure?
-
I know you feel useless,
I know you think your worthless,
I know it hurts when you’ve had to watch the ones you thought who cared

She told him that she loved him by PiezometricPoetry, literature

She told him that she loved him
She told him that she loved him
Only she told him that she loved him.
As no one else gave it a try.
She only told him that she loved him.
Nothing more did she say or imply.
She told only him that she loved him.
No one else received those words from her.
She told him only that she loved him.
Shared nothing more, she spoke no further.
She told him that only she loved him.
As she wanted him to know, no one else did.
She told him that she only loved him.
Nothing else had happened, that’s all, that’s it.
She told him that she loved only him.
Her love directed at one person solely.
She told him that she loved him only.
No need to worry, it’s only love, wholly.
