How do I know
the pill won’t seem
bitter to your tongue
through your teeth?
How do I wear
a once white coat
stained with tears
of memories?
How do I compel
my pen to write
scripts to fight
a dimming light?
How do I know
which waters will flow
to unearth the strength
within me?
How do I persuade
a heart to let go
when it’s my hand
that sets you free?
How do I ensure
my smile won’t be
one of the last
that you’ll see?
How do I force
my ears to hear
a song I fear
of dusk so near?
How do I know
which waters will come
to enshroud the doubts
within me?

I had no idea you had this category where you read your own poetry! This is fantastic because I can hear it from your own voice <3
Aww you are kind, thank you. 🙂
How do you know,
You have it all
Your hearts your safe
It is only you who holds the key
It could be your salvation
Its only you who knows
When to unlock it
When to reveal
Your open heart
To let him know
You know too
Then you have to lock it
to be countinued
