I close my eyes and I smile. As the rain falls I breathe. It's over. It's over. I fought so long, So hard, to get here. The pain is gone. Still I need to be alone. I feel overcrowded. I need to be alone. Later I will begin again. I am not yet done with life. But I have my memories for the moment. My fight seemed unending. I had to fight to breathe. I won in the end. But just for now, Until I have settled I need to be myself. When you feel like I do, Alone is the only way Before I begin again. (dedicated to the guy that helped me)
Reason for writing:
After finally getting over a heartbreak I decided that I wanted to get away from people for a bit. This poem was the outcome of many evenings hidden away in my bedroom!
