Writing a Letter Poetry Scholarship

You, 

Its in the silence when everything's the loudest 
When i can finally hear you pleading for me not to leave 
Asking for a promise that with you is where ill be 
And when im alone i'll truley be alone 
Not who knows where doing who knows what 
With whoever 
Anyone but you 

Although you loved me the strongest 
You tore me pieces 
You knew me the best 
But still couldnt save me 
In fact you made everything worse 

You pulled my already sinking self even further below the surface 
Your life jacket was nothing but a harness 
Restaining me 
Framing me 
Retaining me 
From who i wanted to be 
Because with you i wasnt me 

But yet i still hear your voice at night 
See your smile when i close my eyes 
Feel your touch and its just not right
But ill be alright 
Right? 

Me
