The Mind

I was going through something hard. But.....A certain friend helped me through it.

At this point in life....whenever I feel anything
I go into my head
A barren wasteland
I'm alone
Nobody is around
Or so I thought
Until I saw her
She walked toward me and helped me
She helped me out of the wasteland
To a beautiful place
I never thought that there was a place where someone like me could see
I thought I would die alone with nobody even noticing
It makes me feel like
I have a reason to live.

Hi Brennon. I love your poem! I love how the symbolism is kept to a minimum so I (the reader) could understand it better. Plus this girl must be special hahaha! Anyway I hope that you and everyone reading your amazing poems checks out mine! I can't wait to see more of your poems. If they're anything like this one they must be very special!

I think it's nice. I had just found my reason to live again, but now it's gone. Again. I don't think she's coming back this time. :/ Love your poem, keep up the good work.

[Brennon]

Hey, don't give up! Fight for her! Don't get suicidal on me!

[Andrew M Parker]

I've fought and fought and fought and.. well you could guess what I'd say next. I think this is the end for me. I'll be around for a little while longer. Don't worry.

[Brennon]

No. Not the end. Not even close. How old are you?

[Andrew M Parker]

16, I know. Young, but I think I'm good with the whole life thing.

[Brennon]

I'm actually sixteen too. Dude, you got your whole life ahead of you. I literally just chased my friend down five freaking times to keep him from killing a kid and getting jailtime. Don't let one little setback make you think it's over.

[Andrew M Parker]

This little setback is one of very very many. If I stay, it probably won't be the last. We die anyways, right?

[Brennon]

You were born for a reason. Not to throw it away. Life is full of setbacks. But kicks lifes a*s man. Dont let it consume you.

[Andrew M Parker]

Thanks dude. Sorry for fighting against you trying to help.

[Brennon]
