This Too Shall Pass by Abigail Moran

 

 As summer must come

After the heavy winter snow

This too shall pass

And this too will go

 

After every rain cloud

Comes a beautiful rainbow

This too shall pass

And this too will go

 

After the speed bump

Is a clear road 

This too shall pass

And this too will go

An Unwatered Rose by Abigail Moran

 

Pretty rose 

Delicate rose
Why have you wilted?
In that ghastly pose?

 

Pretty rose
Tender rose
When does rain come?
Surely someone knows

 

Pretty flower
Sweet, lovely flower
Please let someone help
Try not to wilt this hour

 

Pretty flower
Little, dear flower
Please don't wilt away today
Use all your strength and power

 

Because I love you

I Miss You by Abigail Moran

 

Oh how I long for your embrace

the steel trap of your fingertips

the endearing, sweet sensation

of my forehead on your lips

 

Oh how I long for your love

just platonic, simple, kind

As a warm blanket to cover me

and erase the fears of my mind

 

Please take me in your arms

And squeeze oh so gently tight

And try not to be discouraged

As I cry with all my might

Hello Me by Abigail Moran

 

 Hello me 

I know your name

But I don't know who you are

 

How are you?

Because my answer

Would be guesswork by far

 

Hello me

I know your name

But really not much more

 

I don't know what

You want out of life

Only the groceries you buy at the store

 

Hello me

Why are we like this?

Sometimes I just don't know

 

It seems you're hiding from me

All these details

And putting on a show

I'm Sorry by Abigail Moran

 

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
That's all I ever hear
But what have you done to prove
all these words you say, my dear?

 

You say it won't happen again
but then it always does
I ask why you should get forgiveness
and you're answer is just “because”

 

Well I have some news for you
And this you'll want to hear
Sorry doesn't always cut it
Or fix your damage, my dear.

 

Prove that you are sorry
That it won't happen another time
Prove that I can trust you
And you're forgiven for your crime

You're Fine by Abigail Moran

 

 "You're fine

I mean I see nothing wrong

Stop Overreacting 

And just keep moving along"

 

"Just stop being sad

It's not the end of the world

You're being stupid

Just give it a whirl!"

 

Do you think I want to be sad?

Or that I can switch it off?

When someone has a cold

We don't expect them to stop the cough!

 

So kindly try to understand

Or just simply back away

You have no idea about these demons

That I deal with everyday

I Wish I May by Abigail Moran

 

 I wish I may

And I wish I might

Grab all those I love

And hold them all tight

 

One day I will not be here

Or they will leave before

And the grief will last awhile

Always and forevermore

 

I cannot graph the time that is left

Only cherish what is here

Be with the loved ones I have

And always have them near

 

So I wish I may

And I wish that I might

Grab all those I love

and sleep through the night

Since When by Abigail Moran

 

When did we stop caring about others?

When did we cross the line?

When did we start being selfish?

Drink our brethren blood instead of Jesus wine?

 

When did we become animals?

Ripping flesh from it's bone?

When did we become monsters?

Inhumanity is all we've shown 

 

We try to say we're better

and yet sometimes are worse 

Can't accept other human beings

Instead we isolate, attack, and curse

 

When did we stop caring about others?

Or rather, when can we start?

Because we've never actually cared

Our Jesus wine is tart

Bareskin Beauty by Abigail Moran

 

Bareskin beauty of twenty four

Ashamed of herself forever more

Because others have their comments

To make her heart feel sore

 

Bareskin beauty of twenty four

Ashamed of herself forever more

Because others have their comments

And are rude at the core

 

Bareskin beauty now twenty eight

Shamed forever more for her weight

She found someone who loves her now

And love is all it takes

 

 

 

 

 

 

Behind Closed Doors by Abigail Moran

 

Behind closed doors

Curtains shut tight

I lock myself up

Cower from light

 

Behind closed doors 

You can't see

Curtains shut tight

Just to shield me

 

Behind closed doors

Emptying a tissue box

I lock myself up

Hide my shame in hair locks

 

Thats behind the curtain

Thats behind a closed door

But in the light is different

From the fallen tears before

 

I
