I Finally Realize
I realize why I am so angry here
I realize why I hurt every time he speaks
I realize why things will never change
I finally realize why I feel weak
He’s a mess that will never get cleaned
A loud noise that will never be quiet
And an empty room that will always echo in my head
His words are sharp knives cutting in deep
Wrapped in a shell, he’s faint-hearted
He was made small minded
It’s sad I can’t say I know him in ways that are good
But I can say that its good I know the bad
I know the hurt
I know the disappointment
I know the hatred
And I know he will never breathe with a gentle heart
But that’s just my life;
A mess with him in it
I won’t ever love this mess I live in
But I love the feeling of trying to clean it all up
No matter the tears
No matter the cruel words
No matter the bitterness
And no matter the ache in my chest
Finally, I have realized
With my faith and my loving heart,
I will always live in forgiveness

Sometimes I struggle living in the environment I was put in, but living with my heart first and writing how I feel, makes the world seem like a safer place.
