The Journey (Poem)


Confusion fills the air

Around my buzzing mind

I, no doubt, love him

Yet I loved another

I fell harder for the one I'm with

But thoughts of the other linger

He said he'd always love me

I weeped at his declaration

I could not forgive the sorrow

He put my dear heart, so near, through

Leaving, not his choice, wasn't tragic

It was the way I was ignored

A piece of dust upon the windowsill

Of his lighthearted little life

He changed my way of living

As I had changed his own

He taught my heart to feel

Unlike it ever had before

Then, unknown to him, he crushed,

Destroyed, and shattered

What was left

Of what once beat for nothing

I regained the pieces

Now they lie within another

Uncertain of their fate

He could be their savior

Or their great demise

But he is unaware

Of this invisible burden

Placed upon his shoulders
