Why I? & Behind Closed Doors-Guest Poet-Tanaesha

Good Morning All!  TGIF!!!!!  These are the poems that my daughter wrote that I promised yesterday(FYI she will only be 17 June 29th, so this is words from a young heart).  She told me not to post Behind Closed Doors because its really personal to her, but I didnt listen...That poem speaks to me as I am sure speaks to everyone else as well.  We have ALL been there...And can relate...

Why I

Solid calls
Days gone
Months passed
Wondering why
Hearts break
People cry
People lie
People cheat
But why do
People love
People care
Or some people dont even dare
No solid calls
Days gone
Months passed
And I still wonder
Why I


Behind Closed Doors

In public
I show no signs of sadness
With my friends I am the happiest
I'm silly and goofy
I stand tall and brave
As if I am over you
Yes, it has been months

But behind closed doors
I still cry
Not even shy
To show the emotions inside
That I dare not hide

Behind closed doors
I do still miss you
Thinking of you constantly
Every thought of you driving me crazy
Cant push away this feeling of loneliness

Behind closed doors
I listen to songs that make me cry
Torturing myself with every word
I think I just need to move on
People telling me that your probaly
Not even thinking about me anymore

But behind closed doors
I just wanna know why
Why do I still think of you
Why is it do hard
For me to let you go
Why do I still cry
Why do I
Still love you
Behind closed doors
