Your life on a sketching pad <br />Symbolism smudged into crooked lines <br />Your heart in a notebook <br />Words left to be defined <br />And in this time you send yourself <br />Its pages closed left to unfold <br />Into her hands; into her hands <br />You pray to god she understands <br /> <br />Well I guess that it’s typical <br />To cling to things that are just ephemeral <br />And it just doesn’t seem fair <br />And it doesn’t matter how hard you tried <br />That faith you had; those wounded eyes, <br />That battered mind that just understood that she doesn’t care <br />No she doesn’t care <br />You fooled yourself not to be scared<br /><br />Audrey Stephenson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-foolishness-in-bravery/
