» Poem: I used to...
I used to...
written by boom_boom13

I used to be rocked gently to sleep,
I used to be hugged when I weeped.
I used to laugh when I cried,
I used to win when I tried.
But now those memories are gone... erased.
And it feels like I'm running out of space.
When will it be over?
Only time can tell
Whenever my weakness
Will get well.
And no one sees what I need now,
But I don't even know how
I would answer if they asked,
Because all they see right now is a mask.
And it isn't going to feel right if they knew
That all this time they didn't have a clue
That now I cry when I'm sad,
And I push myself away when I'm glad.
And that I'm killing myself inside,
From the many tears that I've cried.
