The Hole In My Chest

Hello, we meet again

In the dark defending silence of my room

With no more distractions 

I face the hole in my chest


All day and all night it's there 

It’s become apart of me now

But They can’t know

My mom would worry more

She might try for therapy 

My friends will treat me different 

It’ll never be the same


If feels like the hole has taken away 

All the colors of the world

The sky drained of its happiness 

The trees blow in the wind 

like sad broken dancers


Pretending it's not there

And going about the day

Is becoming harder 

But I have to keep going

Keep moving forward 

Even if it’s with 

A hole in my chest

This is one of my last poems from my creative writing 1 class. It is a little dark but I like it.
