Poems from friends of thethirdchair

there is a girl...

there is a girl and my mind is racing
racing wih thoughts that are so pure
the purity of her thoughts is what scares her
for her thoughts have neve so gone before
there is a girl in a school with her eyes closed
she is trying to get peace and quiet
for in her life she has nothing but noise
she wants to get a little sleep
a little help would be nice as well
there is a girl and she wants to cry
there is a girl and she wants to scream
but the girl can't make a sound
she feels as if she is losing everyone and everything

The Girl...

the girl can't think straight
she can't go home to escape the drama
every morning she gets out of bed
one question runs through her head
is today the day I feat to come
is today the day life will change in my home
when she is at school her friends need her to be strong
at home, her mother needs her stronger
she has no down time just to cry
her father you see is dying of lung cancer
her friendships are suffering from lack of concentration
none of her teachers know about her home
she feels as though she losing people everyday
now the girl can't think straight......

My Heart

Crying, cursing, shouting…
At night in my bed.
These darkest of thoughts,
My legs feel like lead.

Was that minute wasted?
Future, Present, Past.
They all feel the same now,
When I’m stuck in dead last.

So there in the shadows,
To my own heart I speak.
My breath is so shaky,
And my voice, so… weak.

Stop crying I tell it,
Stop being this way.
Start over. START OVER!
Go back to the day…

Before the twisting
And wishing, and wailing.
Before I was deceived.
Before my hope was failing.

Its so sad now, you see,
In the saddest of sense.
For my heart is not well,
And I’m lost in the tense.

Across my nose and cheek
Fall those tears that flow sideways
As I share with my own heart
All things I have to say.
