I have tried for so long
Only to find out how I was wrong.
I am trying to belong
if only I knew now what they have known all along.
I can't dash along this lonely path.
This path I have been following
Leads to a hollow.
At the end of the path
This lonely faith fades away.
Now this darkness surrounds me.
As I realize I am no longer
Alone in the hollow.
I see a light, if only it was brighter.
This dim light illuminates barely
So I can see glimpses of her rarely.
The light will shine
So I can see who will make my fears fade away.
All this pain I have suffered through this lonely
Path leads to my salvation in the end.
Inside the Mind: Ahhh, definitely 17 year old me in my junior year. I wrote this poem and Filling Spaces relatively close together in English 11 first period. Not for a class assignment but because I wanted to. Had a lot of time before school started. I believe I wrote them waiting for school to start. I maybe spent a week or two on each poem. This one brings back my signature sad start and end with hope. Because why would I ever ditch my calling card completely. It's also misleading in the sense that if you read this it gives you the feeling that I've got my eyes on someone. Maybe already flirting but actually no I didn't. I had just gotten out of the relationship I mentioned that lasted for nearly two years. Maybe it was just me trying to give myself some good ol' hope.
