Unseen Message

Poem By Skye Morris from Central VPA

Feels like the world is closing in 

Don’t know who to call a friend or foe 

Feels like a scream is tearing through 

But that wouldn’t matter to you (no) 

 

Trudging through these halls 

Wanna meld into the walls 

Can’t even properly think 

Cuz all my thoughts lead me back to you 

 

Visions blurred 

And words are slurred 

Trying to break this curse  

But I can’t  

 

I don’t have the power to manipulate 

I don’t have the power to appropriate  

I just have the power to accommodate without you 

 

If I had the power to bring you here 

I’d tell you things you may not want to hear 

My heart is crying out  

Can you save me from this hell? 

 

I know I put myself here  

But please I beg 

My heart is crying out  

Can you save me from this hell? 

 

Let me out  

Then we can part ways 

I can’t stand looking at you 

Seeing your face 

Brings back the haunting memories 

I want to replace 

 

I don’t have the power to erase 

Mistakes of the past; without a trace 

I just have the power to accommodate without you
