Homeless

March 15th, 2019

11:11 and under bridge wishing
Ever since I was young I’ve been wanting the same thing
As scenery changes a life I’ve once known
I’ve been longing for a place that felt like home
But home is not a place you can touch
It is not a building filled with stuff
It is an emotion that you can feel
It is the only place that you can be real
They say home is something you know in your heart
But a house was the place that tore me apart
People say that ignorance is bliss
But I’d rather find home than feel like this

Distance

They say to leave the past
at that

What once was a moment
that didn’t last

They say to move forward
and start a new chapter

But why does this fill me
with anxiety after

They say to run
that you must first crawl

But what if the wrong step
leads to my downfall

They say that this
will lead me astray

But how far can one get
when they run away

Plagued

The memories replay
I wish I could forget
Taking the wrong path
Is something I’ll always regret
You were only a ghost
That left me haunted
With dreams of things
That I never wanted
I still have flashbacks
Like PTSD
I wish I could forget
These memories
Though time goes on
The wounds don’t heal
If it was that easy to disappear
How do I know that you were real
