Poetry: Losing myself

by Danielle Somers

Created on: April 15, 2009

I woke up today and felt alone,

A boat with out a sail, a body without life.

I got up, but wanted to go back

Tired of looking around at all this strife.

Couldn't wait to hear your voice,

To feel your loving touch,

To look into your eyes,

Needing you with me so much.

Sometimes I ask what must I do?

There is so much lost pride

Sometimes I hate what is left of me

Always far away, trying to hide.

But in my dreams we are happy

In reality, I choose the illusion

That one day you would want me

To be part of my confusion.

So then I go to sleep

Because it's easier to lie

When the night is approaching,

It's harder not to cry.
