The Letters Pt.1 Poem by Bella S

In the darkness I am everyone
In the darkness I am no one...

I can hear what you can’t see
When I’m confined in this space,
I live out my dreams

What truth do I seek?
What air do I breathe?
What thought will rest in my mind,
That will help me hold on to this belief?

Empty words for this empty soul
Moving in circles in a space that doesn’t get old

What goal are they trying to achieve?
And why does my exclusion keep them pleased?

My diminishing patience is what I’m trying to save
Waiting for that trust and faith they never gave

My heart is speaking the only way it knows how
But I must fall back into my corner
Because it’s up to him now...

I’ll save my strength for the journey up ahead
This fight is over what’s been said is said

My heart wants to live
Though my hope has died

But who knows how it will end
For this is only part one of the letters I inscribe....
