Here are some poems I want to share with everyone :) Hope you like them! And yes, these poems are by me!

Thank you
Thank you for always standing next to me,
A friend you’ll always be
When I wanted to give up,
You told me to keep my head up
Thank you for stopping me from falling,
When I was on my knees crawling.
Thank you for making me realize,
That I have to stop dreaming,
To open up my eyes and see that it’s right in front of me.
Thank you for making me forget what other people thought of me,
I don’t care what they say anymore.
I look up to you
See how much more you had to go through,
And still stay so strong.
Thank you for still accepting me since I’ve changed,
But I want you to know that I am only changing for the better.
I am sorry I had never really said thank you
But deep inside, I know that it is true
Thank you,
For everything.

Let it go
All this time
I’ve been holding it so tightly,
I won’t let it slip.
My heart tells me to move on,
But I can’t.

Hearing piercing noises,
I put my hands against my ears
And my eyes squeezed tight.
I listen to no one else, just me.

Screaming at the top of my lungs,
Yet I still don’t know what I want.
I gasp for air, as if I were suffocating.

Everything is so quiet,
There is no riot.
I slowly open my eyes
And let out a joyful cry.
I gradually,
Step by step,
Let it go.

I chose
Here’s what you should know,
I started out as a child,
Had no idea where I was;
I was naïve.
The pain kept following me
And I wanted to give up.
Had no strength to fight back
Or stand up for what I believed in.
No one could’ve helped me
How can they understand me?
When I didn’t understand myself.
What should I do? Where should I go?
I questioned myself.
What did I want? What is my goal?
I had no goal.
There was nothing for me to do
But to wish the pain away.
I faced the crossroad,
Had to make a choice.

I chose to wake up from this nightmare
I chose to not regret anything
I chose to walk through the storm
I chose to grow up
I chose to live the moment
I chose to be free
