I Open My Eyes

I close my eyes so weary.
Tired, down, upset.
Hating myself, hating the world
With for something really new
Wishing to let go
Letting go of everything
Everything but you
I'm sore, I'm sick,
Lost & let down
Yet here I am trying to sleep
But my mind will not calm.
Nothing, nothing, sleep, sleep, sleep .....
I open my eyes alive!
Thinking about all of you,
Wanting to see you, hug you,
Make you laugh like always! ;)
But you're thousands of years & miles away,
Or so it seems
So I'll let that all go.
I'll let him go, you go
But then I won't have to.
Even now I think of you & smile
Because that's what you do to me.
I see all I see
& wish you were here to see it too
but I'll click it & give it to you
Along with your presents for being my smile.
Some days are hard
But I will survive because even though it hurts.
I open my eyes
To a brand new day.

I can't remember why I wrote this poem. I know I was in middle school, but it could have been a poem to all my elementary school friends, or it could be during intersession when I wasn't at school ... either way, I still feel this entire poem. I can hear myself saying all these things while I wait for normal school to start back up.
