Melanie C. Campos ~ MahTame

NOBODY OR SOMEBODY

Don’t need nobody
my mind keeps saying;
they’ve all died or gone
why bother to keep on loving?

Shredded heart filled
to the brim of shattered
emotions like tiny shards
as delicate glass particles fled

Quench the burning agony
my soul ripples throughout me
calm the sobbing tides clashing
back and forth like a sad symphony

Helpless is thy strength
sitting by and wonder the ifs
and the should haves constantly
bombarding the lonely and the waifs

Really need a somebody
my heart keeps telling it so
overriding the pitted darkness
from succumbing a precious calypso
