Untitled Poem

Notes: I just wrote this today since I feel depressed about certain things that are happening. Hope you enjoy the poem.


A season to forgive
But at what cost
So many words, you promise
How can I believe them
When so many times they were false
And left me broken
Too much runs through me
But I still can't turn away
No matter how much I try
You are always on my mind
In my heart,
I hold you dear
Never able to push you away
So, I cry and pray
For a day you will see how much you hurt me
Can I once again let you in
Already knowing the outcome that is in-store
Always more sorrow
But unable to let go
Why do you do this
Am I not important to your eyes
Am I a person who shouldn't be
So many mistakes
Never an answer
Another promise to broken
And again I shed my tears
Heart shattering
While I try to pick up the pieces
How can you say one thing to me but say another thing to others
Tell me
Instead of hiding like a coward
I'm still here
Silently waiting for peace of mind
Always lingering in my thoughts
Will you call
Will you finally see me
Once again, I give in
For only to suffer more
Forgive but never forget
A phrase I keep to the word
Cause I can never forget
Since it is still happening
As you turn
I cry inside
My tears are un-shown
My voice screams out to be listen
Still I try
And can't figure out why
Maybe because I want my father
A man
Who always gave me pain
By leaving me to wonder
