Troubling With Love Poem by Melissa Stevens

Troubling With Love

Rating: 3.5


I wondering what across that bridge, a chilly shivers up to my skinny spine
The sky is cloudy and foggy, where I am going
Am I lost, I haven't seen any cars passed by here
I'm starting to question about that, the trees look they are dying
I don't know what the street is, signs are hard to tell
Just like the times in day without a clock
I haven't see anyone, since I left town, haven't heard any calls from anyone especially my step father
Who always abusing me, my mother was never at home
What's going on here, oh running out of gas is like running out of options

You don't know where you are going or facing
Something is telling me that I shouldn't walk to that mysterious bridge where all darkness hid at
Should I turn back where I came from

There's only one road that leads to the outside of town, this is it
Clock is ticking fast, I got to do something quick
Should I jump off this bridge?
Where the water feels so cold that I might get sick or drown in this lake of my problems
This didn't plan as I expected to be
Or maybe I could end it right now

Finally a car coming, it's so black and shiny
But I couldn't see the person inside, is this person going to kidnap because when you live in this town
Everyone suffered a lot here, getting rape by their bad boyfriends or getting abusing by people

He step out of his car, looking at me those darkest brown eyes, his eyes tell you that he the most wanted
For all wrongdoings he have done
The eyes are the soul, when you look at them
You either see something you don't want to see, unable to sleep at night
Always dreaming about him and on that bridge haunted you
Scarring you for life, unable to forget the past
I should run very fast, I can feel deep down into my soul
His laugh creeps me out but feels like a soothing as a ocean
You can't run away from me, I'm your worst nightmare and you're my property
He grabs me by arm and put me close, there's no escaping
No harder how I try to get away from him, he's stronger than me
Oh this is the end, he owns me

Remembering flashbacks about my past, he had the biggest crush on me
But I didn't like him at all, pushing him away
He turned evil, killing everyone who got in his way
My old school is much smaller now, their souls are full with fear

Somehow I'm younger and still on that bridge
I can see high school students messing around each other
This good looking guy grabs my arm gently and puts me close towards him
Would you go out with me?

Oh what should I say, there's no options but to say yes
This whole time thinking while I'm looking at those beautiful brown eyes
Without a doubt, I say yes
And now here I am standing close to him but there's no one around
I'm older now but not that older
Looking around the bridge again
I see many roads that leads to somewhere else
But didn't see my car, just his
As he opened the door
I don't know where I'm going but I know I'm outside of town
