POEMS
*Lights*
Turn off all the lights
In my house
Darkness and pain
Are my friends
I feed them
And give them shelter
In love
With the enemy
At the wrong time
Turn the lights back on
Shoe away my enemy
Still in love
But I know better
The lights
The lights
All in my moods
Turn on the lights
*Lessons*
I’ve learned
Learned a lot
Love is loss
Life is pain
Friendship is relief
Home is torture
And people hate
I’ve learned
From you
Teacher
Hater
Lover
Player
You gave me
Loss
Pain
And you hated me
But I learned the others
First
I thank you
Teacher
Friend
My relief
The source
And end of my
Distress
It’s so confusing
To love
It hurts eventually
But I like it while its there
Ill love again
Never like
I loved you
My teacher
Never again
Me teacher
*Rehab*
Withdrawals
Caused by loneliness
Caused by people
Caused by drugs
Rehab
Withdrawals
Caused by me
Caused by you
Caused by us
Rehab
Leaving the past
First time living
The now
Looking for future
Looking for someone
No more rehab
No more withdrawals
No causes
No effects
Just me
All you get
Is me
*Tears*
You make me cry
As you have seen
You make me love
As you have felt
You make me speak
As you have heard
These tears, all these tears
Are for you
You make me happy
When you’re in my arms
You make me sad
When you’re away
You make me think
About what to say
These tears, all these tears
Are for you
All my promises
Are for you
All my wishes
Are for you
All my love
Is for you
And every single last tear,
Last sob in my bones
Is for you
