Array ( [sid] => 59554 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Heartbroken [time] => 2004-08-10 00:07:25 [hometext] => I don't really like the term [bodytext] => It's burning,
bringing tears to my eyes;
I can't believe I fell for it,
believed all your lies.
With your arms around me I felt whole,
now I'm just a shell.
Now the pain is filling the vaccuum,
can you tell?

I believed, I believed,
but it's empty now, we're empty now.

And I say to myself,
forget it all, it doesn't matter anymore.
It's getting too tough to carry on,
I can't see the shore.
And I'm swimming, treading,
looking frantically for land.
But all I see is the empty sea,
this isn't what I had planned.

I believed, I believed,
but it's empty now, we're empty now.

Broken trust, broken heart,
I'll build the wall again to protect myself from this.
Would have been better to have never felt,
than to have ended here with a broken wrist.
Please walk away and leave me here.
Please throw everything away.
It's already hurt too much,
now there's nothing left to say.

I believed, I believed,
but it's empty now, we're empty now.

Say goodbye to this emitter of pain,
just forget all that will never be.
Say goodbye to this, I'll never feel again,
just close your eyes and don't see.
Broken here, left alone,
build this wall to hold against the flood.
It's breaking now, so alone,
this wall can't contain the blood.

I believed, I believed,
but it's empty now, I'm empty now.

Say goodbye, say goodbye,
it's not your concern now, say goodbye. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 148 [topic] => 22 [informant] => waos [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

I can't believe this had zero comments its a
tragedy indeed. I liked the repetition of the "I
believed" stanza I thought that was well done.
I liked the sense of terror in the 2nd stanza
and how that was traded for a sort of sad
complacency throughout the rest of the
poem. A wonderful poem indeed, very
enjoyable as always.
