Description
I carved a story in a placeIt gave a voice, but no face
The tale grim, it broke a soul
It spoke of loss, of no control
It spoke of time, mentioned loss
It spoke of gains, and the cost
I would know, it’s about me
And everything that couldn’t be
The way the world turned away
How the sun would fade at day
The night that seemed that much longer
Only made me that much stronger
The splinter that sat in my heart
A wound, alive, at the start
The loneliness that latched inside
The pain I chose to never hide
I put my heart out on my sleeve
To watch the world make it seize
That taste, that need, for something more
And the will to lose belief
As steps are taken forward
The past pulls me to a place
A room of harsh reminder
The things I hate to face
The things that make me, me
Feel the pulse inside my chest
The fight to cherish what is left
I can’t lose much more
I’m all that’s left inside

This particular poem was written a while back
Sometimes in my writing I like to intentional create points that make the reader stumble. Sometimes I will use a statement that I want to stand out and be strong and set a certain thought or tone.
I don't really follow poetic "rules". I use the forms here and there, the rhyme schemes, but often times I mix things and create my own little versions.
Thank you for taking the time to check it out
