The Only

Due to the lack of recent poetry papers, I have decided to write a few poems myself!

Embrace the air
As you sink to the ground
You speak your untold stories
To the silence that surrounds
You dance around the issue
Picturing a crowd
Filled with the one person
Unable to cheer aloud
Maybe..

Maybe you'll hear the truth
The truth of a lie left on repeat
Repeated with every discussion,
Every time your eyes meet
Maybe..

Maybe you'll finally walk
Endure on an odyssey far away
Close your eyes, breathe
Let you feeling go astray
Maybe..

Maybe you'll learn
You'll look over your past
You'll grow from mistakes
And try to move on and fast

Or just maybe..

It'll all come back.
Everything you walked away from,
The unexpected sitting at your door
The confusion you thought you left behind,
Reeling you in, when you thought you couldn't take it anymore.
Maybe..

As always
All the what ifs, surround
They grab you by the throat
As you sink lower into the ground

The audience watches
But fails to applaud you
He leaves his seat
And you've lost his view

Playing with your maybes'
And always wins

The curtain opens, the lights fill the stage
You look up and the game begins.
