Someday looks so far away

by Girl of Conviction   Apr 7, 2012


"Someday things will
get better you'll see"
yeah, try being me for a day
& after tell me what you believe.
Being told im not good enough,
day after day,
hearing all those hurtful words,
trying to wish them away.
Someday things will get better,
sounds like a lie covering up the truth,
you think your helping me feel better,
but im wise beyond my youth.
I've heard promises that were never kept,
pain & disappointment, something i had to accept.
Why say something hurtful to only take it back?
The damage is already done, in my heart lies a crack.
If you dont know what im going through,
dont try and act like you do, because everything you'll say will be so far from true.
The truth is you'll never understand what its like to be me,
to be in my shoes, to see what i see.
What does it matter? You cant undo my pain,
you cant stop me from crying
in the pouring rain.
Lets face reality someday may never come,
but as for now ill see where this road takes me,
ill see what i become...

Someday looks so far away :/

    No matter how bleak things look there's always a hope that young people fail to see, no matter what we go through as humans we are dealt enough trouble what we can handle on a personal level. Words can only bring us down so much before enough becomes enough, that's if you let other opinions dictate your life.

    "but im wise beyond my youth."

    Try not to be so quick growing up, we all reach the inevitability sooner or later, enjoy what you have while you have it.

    Overall it's a heartfelt piece about pain on a personal level, well written.

    (do any of my latest in return, I don't mind which, thanks)

    This is a really sad poem. Its really bad what you have to go through in life, never being appreciated and always bein put down. Time heals everything, rest assured that things will get better for you eventually, just believe and have the faith.

    The use of quotation mark in the beginning was awesome. Maybe those lines were spoken to you by someone..

    "you cant stop me from crying
    in the pouring rain.
    Lets face reality someday may never come,
    but as for now ill see where this road takes me,
    ill see what i become...

    "Someday looks so far away :/"

    I love the ending the most. Really powerful and sad.

    Great write 5/5 :)

    Somedays are bad and sometimes better then others that's true.
    Love how you said try being in my shoes and tell me what it feels.
    Your really expressing yourself in this stanza really wanting him to see what your going through.

    Being told im not good enough,
    day after day,
    hearing all those hurtful words,
    trying to wish them away.

    It's hard to hear hurtful words knowing your not good enough and you just wishing it will all just stop and go away. This stanza showed how bad it hurts to hear words like that. Loved how you express that

    Someday things will get better,
    sounds like a lie covering up the truth,
    you think your helping me feel better,
    but im wise beyond my youth.

    Fav stanza
    How every line rhymed to the next line. Beautiful. Knowing that things getter better in time

    I've heard promises that were never kept,
    pain & disappointment, something i had to accept.
    Why say something hurtful to only take it back?
    The damage is already done, in my heart lies a crack.

    This stanza showed a lot of emotions. Promises been broken and the pain you've learned to accept. I loved how in this stanza you put a question in it..and then ended it by saying the damage is done and your heart had been broken

    This poem is great
    How your letting everything out
    Just expressing your emotions

    It's great write love
    Flowed beautiful

    5/5
