She got up as the world did too
Filling her mind with her own scenarios
As being as delusional as she could
As she saw the world from another point of view.
She made a whole different world for herself
Sketching the life she never had
Relating herself to the song “Matilda”
Letting everything pass on by.
She didn't care much about
Not having friends
She had poem to accomplish her
Which was far than enough for her.
As selfish as she was for the world
She never cared less about it
Waking up with hope in her eyes
Tears flowing down her cheeks.
She sketched the life she knew she never had
But soon is going to
Poetry was a therapy for her
While she was losing herself.
With her tired heart
She still tried to love
Loving poetry was the best thing
She ever claimed to do.
Those diamond tears
sparkling brighter than the stars could
Keeping up with her strong mindset
Shes expressing herself through poems.
Poetry was a comfort zone for her
A home she always thought was lost
A quiet place, a notebook and a pencil
Was all that she needed to feel loved.
Home is not a place but a zone
So was poetry for her
Poetry saved her during the lowest
Giving her higher hopes and a bright future.
She closes her notebook with the last line
Creating a hopeful future for herself
Keeping all up to herself
She writes about the life she cannot live.
