Poems from Wonder_Land
“I’m alone and I don’t even care anymore.”
Is what I have convinced myself.
When can I stop pretending?
My world is crumbling around me...
“They lied to me!”
She screams to herself.
They promised!
That they would be there for her.
THAT THEY WOULDN’T HURT HER!
How could...
“Don’t talk to me in that tone!”
Yes, mother, I apologize for my insolent self.
“Why can’t you be more like your brother? He’s younger...
You left me so quickly.
Am I useless? Do you not need me?
The hole in my heart is growing,
I'm turning hollow.
Come back! I need you!...
A mask is what we wear.
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes.
On the mask is a smile.
Forced. Real. Unsure. Scared. Alone. Broken....
