Poems

More or Less

This poem is for my book Another Point of View Chapter 46

____________________________________________________________

People tell me everything because I am trusted

So I know everyone’s secrets

But it isn’t the fact that I can’t tell anyone them

It’s the fact that I have to carry the burden of everyone’s secrets

I’ve been through everything so I know what to do in each situation

I learn things the hard way unfortunately

But I learn well

It scars me for the rest of my life

Memories that will hold me forever

I teach others from it

But your secrets have killed me

Because the secrets you told me kill yourself

And I have learned things about you that others have said to me

It’s no mystery

I feel like I am killing you by talking

And you are going thru hard enough times

I feel like your life is crumbling like a leaf

Before your eyes

 And u r trying to catch it but you’re afraid

because it’s so fragile and u think it’ll break even more if you try to touch it

I don’t want to add to it

But I know leaving you will hurt your heart even more

I am making your life worse

You are already unlucky and have a bad enough life

And I can’t help but think I am adding to it

And every time I talk it is making it worse for you

Because you don’t know this but I know your secret

I guess we are only hurting each other

But if it’s a good kind of hurt I will accept it

I’ve messed up before for you

and I am so afraid that I will hurt others

i need you to start trying again it will make you feel so much better

when you smile its one of the most prettiest things

it’s also the best look for you

maybe if you smiled people would smile back at you and see the

real you that has been hiding all this time

I have been hiding like you

But I have learned that that makes things so much worse

I want you to come out of your shell and show the world who you are

I know you are going through tough times and but I have learned so much

From you but it hurts me soo much to see you like this                    

I have cryed for you to tell you the truth

And I didn’t want you to know because I knew it would hurt you as well

But if you want to share the pain It will make us both feel better
