Sometime...

It was such a gorgeous night out yesterday, so I decided to go out and do some writing. It had been a while since I had the energy or the focus to do so. Here is a poem I came up with. I hope you all enjoy it.

Sometimes I forget

Though I mustn't be reminded

That this thing we call love

Can leave me hopeless and blinded

That my heart is misleading 

And my mind is misguided

Sometimes I forget

And I don't want to be reminded. 

Sometimes I forget

Not only I experience pain

That even when my sky is sunny

There is someone that sees rain

When I don't get out of it what I want

There is someone with no gain

Sometimes I forget

We all experience pain. 

Sometimes I forget

I shouldn't try to be perfect

Even with a thousand eyes watching me

It just doesn't seem worth it

And when everyone sees a failure

My reflection doesn't always object

Sometimes I forget

That nobody is perfect. 

Sometimes I forget

It's okay to cry

Keeping it bottled up

Leaves me hurting inside

Hiding the way I truly feel

And no one knows why

Sometimes I forget

I shouldn't be afraid to cry

Sometimes I forget

And I don't want to be reminded

That it's okay to forget

And occasionally be blinded

It's okay to feel pain

And okay to have a cry

It's okay not to be perfect

And not to know why. 

Sometimes I forget

But it's okay to do

I'm sure somewhere, 

you forget too. 

You forget too.
