leave me behind

By prettyhatemachine

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

why do you look then turn away? i'm left to drown in this hole forsaken in your smile i feel the need to hide i said i will not give in and not conform but i can change for you how do you and i still move when time stops and everybody freezes? and then later it was just a dream i see now but i'm afraid to live it slowly i fall apart how can i let it happen when my guard is up? i begin to drift away from you and i disappear further away from you my heart travels downward on a teari'm not too sure why i wrote this... i guess if you have the feeling you want to love someone you tell them to leave you behind because you dont think you would do any good for them but you would burden them. once again, i dont know why i wrote this cause i have no one and i never had anyone. i wonder if they sell happiness in a box??? oh they dont?! well unlucky me Written December 26th, 2001 © on Dec 25 2001 04:18 PM PST   18 • 0 • 10
