I Am... I Think [[I AM Challenge]]

by Bring Out Your Inner Emo Kid <3

I am watching life go on without me.
I wonder if time will be merciful and stop.
I hear the sounds of laughter,
I see the tears that fall from the sky,
I want to splash in the puddles.
I am a mystery to even my self.
~

I pretend that I know everything, but
I feel like I only know questions.
I touch broken hearts and try to mend them, but
I worry that I will crumple them even more.
I cry because I now know the answer.
I am not perfect, but nothing is.
~

I understand you when you say, “It’s over.”
I say, “Don’t walk away quite yet.”
I dream that love lasts forever, and that time will wait.
I try to prove that to the world, but people are impatient.
I hope that it really isn’t over, but
I am not sure if it truly is the end, because, like all other human beings, I don’t have all the answers.

Do you?

    I love the line about mending broken hearts, but worrying you’ll crumple them!
    This is so indecisive! Don’t you wish sometimes to have all the answers given to you? :)

    No, I don’t. I get that in the world you can’t have all the answers, and that is ok. If we knew everything the world my be utter chaos. We are supposed to have an unknown. It is nicley written.
