Trust me that I'll know
You come so far down here
Just to let me know

I descend into nothing
And you take away everything

My life is in pieces
Please come pick them up
Don't be afraid to speak to me
Go ahead and wake me up

Never really believed
No one really held my fate
Stricken from my mind again
How could you want to relate?

Run away from my tomorrow
And I'll find out who I am
I swear I want to face the truth
But I don't think I can

It's alright for you to hate me
And to shatter the thoughts I love to hold
It's okay for you to spite me with someone else
And it's fine to leave me cold

I'll be here in a year or so
Eternity loses it's speed
Confirming hidden ideas
And finding everything I'll ever need

You left me on this journey
No supplies to keep me strong
You quit on me so quickly
And this road ahead is so long

Give the proof for something
Broken bottles at my feet
Lost my sense of direction
Wandering the street

Capture these memories
I'll throw them in a net
But for you to slip from my fingers
And this is the best I'll ever get

Remember who you were back then
Take away the pain
Get out of my life forever
Don't come back again

I don't want to see you
And I won't read your mail
Burn my unsent letters
I'll hammer in the nail

The nail that was a splinter
That carved paths in my brain
I never want to see you from now
And I never want to remember this pain

I was liking this. I want to know though and have to ask if there was a sudden turn in emotion....

Yes, actually there was a turn in emotion. The beginning of the poem is despaired yet still holds an element of hope in the words. As it reached the bottom it took a turn to a more angry tone that doesn't care if there is hope left or not.

Ok just wanted to clarify. Well then I loved it. I know that feeling.
