Welcome .... Do Come In

By Bridget E. Hill

Have you ever felt sad, lonely, heartbroken, judged, completely fed up? I have for as long as I can remember. To be able to relieve some of the pain I started writing down my feelings.

Genuine everyday emotion feeds my thought process. From finding out I might never have kids or a friends death are some feelings that I had to put on paper. Having low self-esteem and trying to find yourself in a world where no matter what you do or say you will never be accepted. Finding the love of your life and not realizeing it until it's too late. Thse are a few experiences that you will read about.

There are no titles on any of these poems. Titiles aren't always inviting to the reader. In my opinion the mystery of the unknown is quite intriguing. In order to identify with one of these poems dive in head firest and dissect it. Analyze the symbolism to see if you can relate.

We have all needed to feel accepted but that one foot always gets stuck in the door. By reading this collection I hope that you will feel connectd to atleast one person.

Book preview

1.

What is it about her

that makes you constantly return

can I do anything

to turn your head

What is it about her

that makes you a slave

for a little bit of lovin’

time and time again

What is it about her

that’s what mystifies me

is it a look, a move

I am consumed with wonder

What is it about her

an overpowering strength

she must possess

to have such an impact on one little man

2.

Desperately wanting to hear

what your heart had to say

tears started to form

at the prospects of the spoken word

Feelings of happiness, joy and love

overwhelm my entire body

while I patiently wait for the day

your voice is allowed to speak

3.

I’m not sure if

this is what I want

will I ever know

should I leave or stay

I’m not sure if

I will ever have it all

should I try harder

or just give up

I’m not sure if

I will ever fall in love

does it really matter

maybe I will go away to never return

I’m not sure if

I should end it all

would you even care

or go on as normal

I’m not sure if

I was meant to be here

I need an answer to this question

which is worse – life or death

4.

I have seen myself sick

I have felt myself ache

I have seen myself cry

for the life that you did take

I have dealt with anger

for having not spoken

I have dealt with depression

in knowing that this is the end

I have never been able to express my feelings

for the one I love

I have never been able to forget my special angel

who is floating above

5.

How can you feel something

that isn’t real

How can you miss something

that was never there

How can you cry for something

that has no soul

6.

What I want is

to make love to you in the rain

using your body

as my blanket

What I feel is

a love so deep within

that I know it has always been

What I believe is

the day will come

when you will realize

nothing else matters

What I need is to take your name as mine

from this day

to the very last

7.

I blew a kiss into the wind

hoping that mother nature

would portray cupid

aiming my heartfelt breathe to you

As the air began to cool down

the wind grew stronger

sounding as if people were whispering

their messages of love

Through the mysteries of nature

we are able to communicate our emotions

nothing more

nothing less

8.

My voice gets sent to prison

I’m in total lock down

no means of communication

just my eyes to guide me

You paralyze my soul

I lose all sense

when I
