So I was over at my sister's house and we began chatting and she showed me a recent poem that she wrote from a phone call that she received. Her writing is amazing and so I thought I would share some of her poetry on here. (Yes I did get permission. :p)
This first two are about her mother in law. LOL. (If you knew her, you would understand)
BROKEN
By Vanessa Marrott
Why should I care
if noone cares about me?
Why should I speak out loud
if everyone talks behind me?
Why should I love
if everone gets mad?
Why should I try
if everyone avoids me?
Why should I be happy
when I feel so upset?
What should I be
if I can't be me?
Why should I play
if I'm broken?
Broken inside
how will you mend me?
When all my pieces
are shattered inside me?
I seem fine
but am I really?
I tell people I am good when they ask
but I wish they could just know.
I'M FALLING APART!
I need some serious mendind.
Just do me a favor
and stop talking about me.
OVER
By Vanessa Marrott
How can you forget the past
when it is staring you in the face?
How can you love
when you've only been taught to hate?
How can you win
when you always lose?
How can you be alone
when someone is bugging you?
I'm tired of trying to please everyone
I can't be two people, I can't please everyone!
Can you understand?
It's not fair that you
say I don't ry.
I can't do it anymore.
I just feel like screaming.
It's what you do that's right
and I do everything wrong.
Well guess what?
I'm done with you.
It's over.
I'm not going to mend this situation.
It's up to you
and when you are not so freaking moody.
Make up your mind once and for all!
This one is an apology to her hubby. It's quite long. And it made me cry.
Don't you wish you coud tell that one guy just how much he means to you?
Or how you feel safe when he holds you?
Or that your first thought when you say goodbye is
when you'll get to see him again?
Don't you wish he would tell you how much he loves you
in front of his friends?
Not caring about what they think
or how they would react?
Or that his smile brightens your entire day
and he knows just how to make you laugh
when you don't ever wanna smile?
Don't you wish you could know his first thought
when he sees you walk through the door?
Or his thoughts anytime?
All you really want is for him to know
is how you really feel.
Or that you love staying up
all the hours of the night
talking about everything and anything.
You just want to tell him you care for him
more than anyone else in the world.
She sits alone in the dead of night
looking up at the darkened sky.
Those shiny specks hold her attention...
distracting her from the empty feeling.
Deep in her eyes a single gleam shone out
showing some sign of hope
that it would all come to an end
and LOVE would conquer all.
It was the day should would always regret.
A time when she stood still and watched the world around her.
She held on to a love she knew she couldn't have for anyone else.
She longed to be in a different world
where nothing like pain, agony or sorrow existed.
She knew that place would never exist.
She thought it would be okay,
but wondered why?
She brought on more pain
as she saw his smile that wasn't directed at her.
She couldn't stand seeing him without her at his side.
Maybe this painful fate was meant to be.
But she would never know without trying.
She would never give up hope.
Never forgetting.
The rose he gave her has faded and wilted
but the love tucked deep inside
remainds deep in her heart forever.
Her heart beat faster,
the butterflies make her weak.
His arms around her.
Her head on his shoulder.
Time seemed to slow down and inched along its way.
She closed her eyes and slipped into another world,
her dreams and love in focus.
And true happiness under spotlight.
The moon held the beauty of the summer's eve
and the glory of absolute joy.
If I told you I loved you,
would you smile or laugh in my face?
If I gave you my heart,
will you care for it or toss it aside?
If I came to you crying
would you hold me or quickly run and hide?
If someone called me names
would you agree or beat the hell outta them?
If I sang to you off key
would you laugh or join in?
If I lay my head on your shoulder
would you push it away or play with my hair?
If I danced in the rain
would you join me or go inside?
If I made a complete fool of myself
would you proudly claim me as yours or tell people you didn't know me?
If I made a mistake
would you forgive me or hold a grudge?
If another guy tried to take me
would you put up a fight or step aside and let them?
If I looked or acted sad
would you ask what's wrong or go on with your day?
If I was in the hospital
would you be by my side or not even care?
If another girl gave her your attention
would you flirt and leave me or stay beside me forever?
If I was depressed
would you hold me throught the night saying it would be okay
or would you walk out the door and never look back?
Would be be my everything?
My life?
My love?
A soft simple whisper echoed in her heart.
The melody played as a grey clouded sky enclosed the warmth of her soul,
allowing his love to flow free.
His arms wrapped around her sending chills down her spine.
The crows flew in the air as the tune grew more light.
The drops of rain fell softly splattering the ground around them.
The smells filled her lungs,
helping her truly feel at ease.
Butterflies go to those who love with the heart
so I will send you a few to keep you company.
Just look to the shooting stars.
If I could say exactly what I wanted to your face I would say this.
I am in love with you.
You don't see my heart break
yet it still makes me love you with all the pieces of it.
You're the one I thoink of last at night
and the first in the morning.
You're my favorite hello
and my hardest goodbye.
I can't just leave behind what we have.
It's unfair to our hearts.
We both know it.
I want you to remember me
and let me be the only one.
Promise it wasn't or isn't a game
that all of your love is real.
I know you still want it
despite what your friends say about me.
I believe we are meant to be.
You're the one who took hold of my heart
and made me feel life and what it really is.
You made me who I am today.
I hope you remember me always
even if we end up going our seperate ways.
This is my proclamation to the world
that I love you.
I always have and always will.
You will always have a hold of my heart.
I hope you'll always love me if it all ends up destroyed.
Just know you'll always have mine.
