Sinking slower, falling faster
The petals remind me of pain once after
My heart tells me I’m not the same
Lost dreams of the crashing rain
Remembering all the time well spent
Wondering if that’s the way it went
Staring at the floor, but I’m loosing space
Now my world becomes the best place
I walk around singing to be okay
The lamp is what keeps me awake
A fantasy portrayed as real
I seem so cold. Am I warm enough to feel?
Lay me to where I hear no screams
Life contains lonely, sentimental things
I can’t let go or hold on without the guilt
My own hurt and pain means so little
I speak to myself and look at everyone
Am I antisocial or choose to be alone?
Is a bad person to know just you?
It’s worth the pain to speak the truth
Every time I love it makes them cry
Would I make it better to quit life?
I want to be in the sky and look toward the ground
To have no worries and sing my own sound
The back-way isn’t missing, but hiding in my heart
I had to find myself before I fell apart
No one could save me, but me
As I walked away, I set us both free

Walking Away From Everything by vampire-zombie
Your words are raw and come straight from the heart, this is the essence of good poetry.
This is not the sign of someone cold, but the sign of someone that can make a difference.
Good stuff Lamberta.

Yeah… blunt and straight to the point is usually how I write most of my poetry. Glad to know you appreciate the raw quality to my work. I love using metaphors, even odd ones, to describe how I feel in all kinds of situations. Thank you for enjoying my poetry, even the past stuff. Much appreciated David. :D
“Lay me to where I hear no screams
Life contains lonely, sentimental things”

Your most welcome Red. :) So glad I could evoke emotion within you while reading my poetry.
“Life contains lonely, sentimental things”
You’re way to young to be so aware.
True, but I had to learn about hard things at a young age. & I was always told I was more mature for my age as well. Thanks for reading. :)

Your poetry is great. It will change the world one day. :)
You are right. Only you know and feel: feeling lonely, how to escape. We are more free, if separate of what was binding. Maybe we should make peace, Maybe we should make peace, we can not have total freedom. … I like your post, and just Following you.
Thank you for following & enjoying my poetry. Makes me feel glad when people can connect to my writing. :)
Good stuff, Lamberta! But it sounds like you have a broken heart. I hope it gets better soon. Take care, and write on…
Well this poetry is from the past, if it has a #___ at the end of the poem it’s old. if you click on the tag “old poetry” you’ll find all the older poems starting from #250 and working backwards. Not all my poetry is this sad.. I swear. :) Thanks for reading. :)
This is another beautiful poetry Lamberta! :) I feel with you ^^
