Popcorn Poetry: Renee's Poem







Although Popcorn Poetry began with poems written exclusively at work, I've decided to expand them to include a wide variety of poems or short stories written by myself, my friends or my family.  My sister Renee posted a beautifully sad poem on her blog the other day that I just needed to share.  It is so good!

Untitled by Renee Garcia 

There comes a time
when all the things you pushed aside
come back and affect you

there comes a time
when all the things you tried to hide
come out and swallow you

there comes a time
when the joys you brought to light
turn around and deceive you

there comes a time
when all the things you did right
get lost behind you

there comes a time
when the tears in your eyes
dry up just to mock you

there comes a time
when even the sky
loses its beauty above you

there comes a time
when your love inside
overwhelms everything in you

but there comes a time
when you just say goodbye
to the darkness that surrounds you
