*What Went Wrong?*


It's hard to know.

It's difficult to guess.

But in my best opinion.

You want this to end.

Six years.

That's how long I've been gone.

Eight years.

That's how long I've known.

I knew how I felt about you.

From the very start.

I finally have you.

But I don't see you that much.

Lately everyone asks what's up with you.

I tell them I don't know.

But they should ask how I am.

They don't see my damage.

They see my "smile" and your frown.

I feel the pain sinking into my skin.

It's scary to think that the one thing I wanted,

Is the one thing that I'll lose.

I'm just here to, at the very least, be heard without having people around me giving me sympathy. Don't get to caught about what my poems mean. I don't rhyme. I don't stick to a theme. I write when I need to get something off of my chest and that's it. I don't take the time to use a type of poetry so just deal with it. These are my stories and my life.
