Here is the first poem I have written this year. A few more to come soon! :)
ROLLER COASTER RIDE
Emotions
running with highs and lows…
Twists
and turns and decisions to make…
Stomach-churning
butterfly kicks…
Headache-inducing
stressful situations…
Heart-pumping
conversations…
Can’t
you see this is hurting her?
Just
look, her heart is breaking.
Can’t
you see she needs your support?
Just
look, this rejection is killing her.
She
is strong & can handle anything,
But
this is almost too much to bear.
There
is so much she can’t say to you.
There
is so much she can’t share.
There
are so many hints that have been dropped.
And
so many hints you failed to pick up.
She
tries so hard to be perfect.
She
tries so hard to impress.
She
couldn’t handle to let you down.
She
couldn’t cope to disappoint.
She
wants to make you proud.
She
wants you to prove she isn’t replaceable.
She
worries you don’t see her hard work.
She
worries you don’t care.
She
is afraid to fall.
She
is afraid to fail.
She
wants to trust your words.
She
wants you to trust her as well.
Drowning
in her own insecurities.
She
needs help to save her from herself.
She
is working even harder now.
To
prove you made the right choice.
Her
passion is stronger than her fear.
Her
journey is just beginning.
She
is where she is meant to be.
She
wants you to believe in her.
She
wants to know how you truly feel.
She
wants to tell you all her fears.
Emotions
running with highs and lows…
Twists
and turns of enthusiastic fate…
Stomach-churning
butterfly flutters…
Headache-inducing
nerves of excitement…
Heart-pumping
passion…
