Another random poem
Unreachable
You scared people away with your thorns
Your hands are cold, no, they are freezing like ice, your heart like stone
You don’t let them get inside
You don’t let them find out
Who you really are.
You stand right there but still so far
You smile and laugh, you are trying so hard
You are covered
You are hidden
You feel like a loser, a black sheep in your family
But why?
You are a cactus
Filled up with tears deep down
You show your strength
I feel your fright, your fight with yourself, with everyone else
You don’t want help from anyone
Right, you don’t need pity
It’s not your fault
You have a heart
Why can’t you love?
What’s wrong with that?
People wonder what is in your brain
They stare, they whisper, they think you are insane
It doesn’t have to be that way
You have the rights to say, to pray, to get out of your shell
Let me reach you. Let me listen. Let me be your friend
To you, friends are sand.
From them, you grow.
