About the Poem
This is a poem that I wrote on a night a long time ago when nothing was right with my life. I figured if I could give up the memory of him and me than I would be at peace.
Easier said then done.
Your Undertow |
| by Brandi Schneider |
| I am not saying that I have all the answers And I am not going to pretend too. I just want to be able to pick up all of the broken pieces to my life. I want to put them in order again I have been in your blood far too long- I want to feel what it is like to be alive again And I no longer want to feel your undertow. We have wasted so much time together And suddenly my life feels like a river It is taking me places I don't want to go And I am seeing things I never wanted to see I don't even recognize people I care for anymore And there is this liar in my head And it is telling me that I am going down with you. I know I have to get back on my feet Now. Without you taking away any more of my life. |
