Fade Away
I said that I would never cry
I guess I told myself another lie
Now tears fall that I cant take back
Faith in myself I seem to lack
I try to be cool and fit in with everyone
Try not to worry try to have fun
But its not as easy as you may think
The peace of mind I fought so hard for
Seems not to be here anymore
I thought the pain would go away
I thought that things would be okay
I try so hard but my efforts dont seem to pay off
Out of all these people why must I be the one who is so soft
No one seems to want to hear what I have to say
It seems my words just fade way
Rather painful to read, UniqueOne. The emotion comes through loud and clear. Well done.
UniqueOne, welcome to a2k.
Your poem is full of humanity, with the kind of worry we all experience and the fear that we might be the only one who isn't coping very well.
You've captured one of the characteristics that makes us all human.
