Abandoned : Inspirational Poetry

Abandoned

 

Why did you go and not say goodbye

I lay there in your bed

All I could do was cry, why!?

It was night,

You were no where in sight.

I stared at the items you left behind

I touched them and smelt them

And made them mine

I cried for the times I had spent with you

I cried because I felt alone

I cried, because you were just not coming home

 

One day I grew up in a hurry

Too many people to look after in your place

He blamed me instead because I had your face

Head bowed I walked home approaching our street

The yellow and white kitchen floor

The angry fist marks left in the door

“You see child, your brain is out of sorts”

“The chemical messengers are misfiring and making you weak”

Take these blue pills, pink pills and then we will speak

It’s not your fault, this I have seen

You suffer from depression and you’re only fifteen

 

Thirty now, I sit alone in my bed

It was my choice you see

I want to cry

Here are my reasons why..

I hurt you because I myself was broken

It never made sense to me until I heard it spoken

If you left, I’d now understand

That my wildest dream had come true

That my largest fear was not of you

But of loosing without choosing to

 

I lived in the sad room for so long

I stayed in that room until I heard your song

I tried to come out, what beautiful days!

I wanted to feel normal in so many ways..

He said..

“In this time I’ve loved you and I have never left you”

“Why did you believe that I would, when I did all that I could”

Shamefully my errors were placed before me

A slave to me was all I could conceive

“Dear God, forgive me and let it be what it must”!

“I never wanted to do that – I have lost his trust”

 

Time to sit back and to grow

Time to change, to cry happy tears

Time to sit on top of all of these fears.
