I dont like what i find

by SimIsSeiko   Jul 25, 2013


The world took my smile away.
A long time ago, it was beautiful,
With wonder in all that I saw.
But then they said go face reality,
And I hated what I found

It was blood it was war,
It was abuse, by others and by you
It was anger and terrorism
Bombs that are blown
Just to be cruel
And abandonment,
By me and by you.

It was forgetfulness,
That can cost a life
Forbidden love
Or self sacrifice
It was suicide notes,
And last good byes
They told me to face reality,
But I don't like what I find

    I love how you stated about the child like wonder here. The world took your smile away. I love that statement too. as the world can be a very cruel place. Even in a home you live in can be broken. I know this feeling well. I love the element if hope here and then the sadness starts here. Reality is a very harsh place that can consume you quickly. Depression is very horrible too. It makes you not yourself as it grows worse with time.

    I love how in the second stanza you stated all the reasons why these things happen to you. That is a lot and its hard to live with all the memories that haunt you. I love how when you take about abuse you are talking about a certain person or 'you'. It leaves the reader wondering who it is. I love lived with abuse a lot of my life so I know how that truly feels.

    I like the way you ended this too. You didn't like what you found and all these reasons can scar anyone. Just remember though if you truly went through this all you are stronger than you know of want to know hun. I do love the message this says though and you are very brave to share this. 5/5
