poems ~ some days

Some days I wear
my heart on my sleeve, 
And I find that my feelings
are my biggest needs.

Some days my heart
feels all broken inside,
As I navigate the places
the hurting resides.

Some days I wonder
if I’ll ever adapt,
To the torture of love
to bridge all the gaps.

Some days I focus
on what I can do,
Other days I can’t deal with
the nightmare that’s come true.

Some days I want
to runaway and hide,
To bury all the frustration
from living life alive.

Some days I believe
it’s all worth the pain,
For connection is important 
even when it drives you insane.

Some days I regret
the way that I feel, 
And just wanna quit
like really for reals.

Some days I long
to not feel as I do,
But I know that real love
doesn’t work like that boo.

Some days I have answers 
even in all the pain,
And other times the questions 
are all that remain.
