Marcquiese Burrell Poems

dear Santa, will you look over my Christmas list carefully
there is just one thing i'm looking for
All I want for Christmas is someone to call my baby
...

How do you ever get over the pain?
bursting into tears suffering with shame
no longer wanting to live life or play this game
thinking life is meaningless placing the blame
...

I look in your eyes and I found a love inside
I think it's crazy how you touched my heart
for the very first time i would feel something
years would pass and nothing between us changed
...

Given you all I had
i tried the best i could
i tried very hard
there's no more fight left in me
...

Never intended for it to happen
I had an itch that needed to be scratched
Guess I liked the physical and mental aspect of it
and it required no commitment
...

When you've hurt me, I still cared
When you ignored me, I forced a smile upon my face
When you showed more affections for another, I've became happy for you
Still, after all this time, I wanted you
...

Wasn't apart of my plan
To have fallen in love with you
A thousand times I rehearsed my lines
Memerizing each word to tell you just how i feel
...

Things were going just fine until a sudden issue arised
A pattern I've noticed and couldn't describe
This tore away at my heart, i couldn't deny
Am I not worth it, why do I even try?
...

I'll keep my head up
No, life won't get me down
Yeah, the challenges can be tough
I'll never go under, i will not drown
...

Anger is the one emotion that discomforts my soul
Whenever I express such rage
I see nothing but red and I start to lose control
...
