Brave new world

With this being my first blog, i wanted to post something as soon as i created this.
So i chose to post a poem i had done for writers craft this year.

Hide

Hide from the world
The good and the bad

I used to hate my family
But loved them all the same
I laughed at all the problems
To hide the pain I felt inside
I couldn’t wake up from this nightmare
Had no escapes, no exits
I could only hide

Putting up walls, protecting myself
...god I know this trick to well

What I feel is real
I’m not asleep, my only way to tell

Hide
Hide yourself from the pain
From the hate
You were never strong enough for the both of us
No one else is home
Look at me
You’re the girl I used to be

Pouring your emotions into an empty diary
A true child
The paper trail leads to your hiding
One page left
Today’s date

You said you were sorry
But it wasn’t your fault
You were too young for this

You’ve made me stronger in many ways
I wish I could thank you
So I pray
I wish you well
‘til we meet again
I had been listening to a song while i was writing this. I had been going through a difficult time, and this really helped me get through it for some reason. Writing is one of my only outlets i have where i can completely let loose, and so i hope that this blog will help me with what i'm going through now.
