Scarred

Yet another one that I wrote. This was written when I was feeling slightly depressed. Enjoy!


Renwen

She smiles for the pictures
Laughs at all the jokes
Hides the pain inside

The people then leave
One by one
Wishing her well

She sighs as she walks back in
She fondles the ribbons
Caresses the cards

Her hair is let down
The dress is hung up
The make-up washed off

She opens a drawer
Sits down on her bed
Looks down at her arm

Each year has been marked
Each year has been remembered

Holding the blade
She makes one more mark

The years go by
Each leaving a mark
In remembrance of her life

(tentatively) Hope Is Not Lost

This one is original. I wrote it a couple weeks ago in my prayer journal. The inspiration was my friend's mom going into the hospital.

Renwen



Pain is all you feel
Life seems out to get you

Did God abandon me?
Doesn't He understand my pain?

God knows your pain
He's holding out His arms

Open your mind
Open your soul

To despair is to lose all hope
Do not despair, dear one

Remember this
I will always be holding you

When life seems bleak
When love seems lost

My arms will encapture you
My Love will overwhelm you

Remember, dear one
Hope is never lost

I'm That Girl

OK, here's a poem that I did not write, but that I can relate to quite well.

Renwen

I'm that girl that everyone knows
That people hate
And people fear
I have friends
And then I have enemies
I'm that girl
Who tries so hard
To be everyone's friend
I'm that girl
Who never cheats
And always loves
I'm that girl
Who people pick at
Because it's easy to do
But I'm that girl
Who can surprise you
And amaze you
I got a big heart
But bigger grudges!
I'm that girl who sits back
And let's you yell
And hit and kick
I'm that girl
Who can lose her mind
And can accidentally do something
I'm that girl
Who can't escape
From her own doom
You'll all be sorry
For messing with me!
I'm not trying to ignore you
Just let me be
Because I'm now just plotting your doom
I'm that girl
Who's waiting for her turn
The time is here
You had your fun
Now it's my turn
I'm that girl
Who always gets the revenge
And the blood shed
She needs
I'm just that kind of girl

New poem

Finally, my poem that's been itching to come out has arrived!

Renwen


Up, down, in, out, breathe
Lifeblood ebbs into the earth
Up, down, in, out, breathe
