These are both intended for the same person, both of which they probably wont see. But it isn't anyone on livejournal or myspace. so chances are it isn't about you.
(poem 1)
Gut wrenching
Heart pounding
Mind racing a mile a minute
So confused by the mess you created
Can't figure it out
Don't understand anymore
Wish I could see inside
The mind that is so lost...so scared
I'm here to help
Not to intrude
But the harder I try
The farther I'm pushed away
It fucks me up
Not really sure why
Uncertain of how to act
These eggshells cut deeper
Wish things were back to normal
Only, I dont remember what normal was
My cheeks hurt from faking
The smile that is slowly fading away
Can't feel anymore
The care; the compassion
It's one sided
So why do you keep turning the knife?
Sorry if youre hurting
I can only try so hard
But stop making me feel bad
All I have been is there for you
Never asked for much
But there is only so much I can give
My heart is weakening
It can only be let down so many times
Is there something I missed?
Overlook any clues?
If not, than what?
What is it you want me to figure out?
Time slowly slips away
But you keep running faster
So hard to keep up
And Im falling behind
Walls to high to climb alone
Yet still left with a rope too short
Sooner or later
These tears are going to wash me away
And you'll never really know
How much I was willing to give
I don't ask for much
Just honesty.
(poem 2)
I held out my hand
And you pushed it away
I showed compassion
And you ran from it
I leave you alone
And you find me
Again
And again
I think, Its different this time.
And you prove me wrong
I asked how to help
And you showed me the door
I pushed on the bricks
And you built the wall higher
So high
You blocked out the sun
I tried to understand
And yet you shortened the rope
I tried holding on
And you made me feel guilty
I know that you are guarded
And rightfully so
But there is no excuse
For treating someone like this
I am done with the mind games
And I hope you realize
I can only withstand so much pain
Before I just walk away.
