You can't hurt me physically I'll slam your carcass to the ground You think you can out smart and confuse me I'm too out there to touch If you're not careful you'll be like me crazy Here you come at me again If you think changing will work well you're wrong You couldn't harm my mind or body, I'm afraid of no man So you come to me not with curses, punches, riddles or rhetoric tricks You hold me close and you say you love me You whisper in my ear, telling of all the pains you can fix You touched my heart and brought me back to reality Then you left me behind like a forgotten dream Only after you had left I realized my mortality You had mended my broken heart and filled in the holes Without a thought you broke it over your knee and walked away The insanity that drives me after tears up my soul Now I sit in my world of mental alienation and bliss I see you coming back to me and I smile, not in love but hate My rebellious heart can't wait for your voice, your touch, your kiss I stand to greet you with open arms You smile and melt my heart and tears stream down my face As we hold another I don't care that I'm caught in a charm You stab me as we embrace each other I stare with agony at the insidious look upon you beaming face My mortality apparent and no place for cover As I cradled my shattered heart, my sanity long since fled You change to something else, a hated figure, my brother My heart in splinters, my mind cracked, I can't hold both my heart and my head I glance up to find you have left once more But your smirk of victory and the laugh at my defeat remian I ceased to exist save for a shell of a man, a husk without a core You came to me in many forms like pictures on a wall You hurt me in the worst way and I loved you for it still I can't do anything without you, but I realize you are my great downfall [comments] => 1 [counter] => 151 [topic] => 39 [informant] => TundraHydra [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )
