Jessica Gabanyic Poems

You'll never know,
You'll never know a person,
Never know their story
Unless they have told you,
...

Laying in your bed,
I watched the sun come up,
And listened to you breath,
Your arm crossed over your face,
...

Look past my brown eyes,
Look past the walls that I have built,
Look just beyond the pain and confusion
And there you will see the fear and loneliness,
...

4.

He stands in front of me,
Holy and perfect,
Sinless and fearless,
He stands,
...

With a broken heart,
I vowed to never trust again,
Then I was forgotten,
Misplaced and forever lost,
...

I have doubted my reality,
Where real and right were one,
I have doubted myself,
Causing my own mistrust,
...

Nobody understands,
Just how hard living can be,
We walk alone,
Eat alone,
...

If I ever have a baby girl,
I'd tell her to be cautious,
And when she would ask,
I'll tell her exactly why,
...

America used to be,
Courageous,
People who would fight for us,
Rather than against us,
...

If you see this,
You're more special then you think,
Your world may be crumbling,
And you feel there isn't anything left,
...

The moon shines brightly
Shining over the river,
Fireflies twinkling like little Christmas trees,
A bridge stands over the river
...

We are broken pieces of ourselves,
Constantly trying to hide what is broken,
The façade we put up,
Only hides what we wish people won't see,
...

Tears stain her face,
As she looks to the sky,
Her heart shattered
On the ground,
...

You stole my heart from day one,
Made me believe that you wouldn't leave,
And when things seemed to fall into place,
You left without a trace,
...

Shut off,
Locked inside,
Doors blocked,
Windows covered,
...

Her scars show her experience,
Physically she's stable,
Emotionally Numb,
Never trusting anyone,
...

17.

People ask me,
What do you want to be?
I guess telling them,
What I truly want to be
...

People find you inferior,
They laugh and call you names,
They find you weak
When you cry,
...

Behind the willow Tree,
there lies a girl who's heart was shattered,
where tears were once shed and wiped away,
and where love was once proclaimed,
...

Jessica Gabanyic Biography

Hey My Name is Jessica, I am a mother to a beautiful little girl. I started writing when I was 15 years old, at first it was a way for me to express my anger. Lately my poetry has been written either by inspiration or has been written to express a feeling. I one day want to write poetry, and utilize my photography and apply my poems to my pictures.

The Best Poem Of Jessica Gabanyic

The Living Mirror

You'll never know,
You'll never know a person,
Never know their story
Unless they have told you,
You can't possibly feel,

You'll never feel the anguish,
Until you've seen one fall to its wrath,
The pain that puts them down no matter what,
The hurt of knowing you are never wanted,
You can't possibly see,


You can't see,
That the tears they try so hard to hide
Fall anyways,
How every step is like drowning in loneliness,
Followed by unforgiving guilt,
How even when they smile,
They feel nothing but emptiness,
You can't hear,

When you can't stand to hear,
A person's plea for relief,
To hear the broken sobs that rack a person's body,
Stiffening their posture to something you don't recognize,
Remember,


How when someone dedicated a second for you,
How they watched you fall
And not get back up,
How every time they kept asking,
Was I right?
Replaying every situation that had happened,
Wondering what they did wrong,
Praying that one day you'll forgive them,
Hoping that when they die you'll not become them,
Wishing that every day you would cherish it until you take your last breath,
By then all the wishing, hoping, praying, and wondering will be a distant memory,
That even then they will return to earth just as they had become human,
That even when they had wished, hoped, prayed, and wondered they will never truly understand,

They will never truly understand,
Why you chose to run away when you could of walked,
How even then you would succumb to the painful sorrow
And stay there,
How when you fell
You'd never get back up,
Regardless of their effort to help you up,
How learning to fall was like laying in your death bed,
Useless, painful, hard, and undeniably their story on repeat,
Because even when they tried to understand the reality hit them harder,
Harder than the blind-fold they put over their eyes,
Just so they didn't have to see the anguish and loneliness that they created in you.
