Sometimes, you need a little break
from the world.

Sometimes, you need to give up on something
to get something new.

Sometimes, something hurts you so bad
you need to run away from it.

Sometimes, you feel something so strong,
so deep,
that you never want to let it go.

Sometimes, it’s a person,
who cuts you so deep
with their shallow words.

Sometimes, it’s a thing.
And some things aren’t meant to be,
but they happen anyway.

If you think that maybe,
just maybe,
one day this might happen to you…

Run and never look back.

It’s the worst feeling ever,
when that someone or something
leaves your life.

Sometimes, a feeling of depth is kind of like hoarding,
you can’t get rid of it.

Sometimes, you fall for your best friend,
but he’s already in love with someone else.

And when you try to break them up,
it only makes it worse.

For once in your life,
wouldn’t you like to feel loved?

Because it’s a feeling of depth,
one you can’t get out of

No matter how hard you try
You will never win.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

I have "fallen" for my best friend. I don't know what will happen, but everything will be alright in the end. All in all, your poem is amazing, very true, and just full of you and your emotions. Though I can't say that I have had this happen, my best friend in love with someone else, I know that might happen. But I can I connect to having "fallen" for your best friend. Thank you for sharing this!

I enjoyed how you started off refering to everything as 'something' instead of flat out telling the readers. My favorite part was the very first stanza because it reminds me of one reason of why I read so much. Need to write more poetry Mikky_Ekko13! Keep writing!

This was very true. I liked the harsh reality you put into this. Nice.
