Everything that I wanted to stay the same
Has changed.

The negativity that I used to need
To live now drowns me.
I'm suffocated by what will never be,
Because I can't reach my dreams.

You were everything that I ever wanted,
And all you did was leave me discarded.

I still stare in the mirror wondering
Why am I still living?
I never had a reason to
Until I fell in love with you.
Yet, everything was a lie
Leaving with a pointless life.

The blood doesn't relieve my pain.
The sorrows start to replace
Every want I had for happiness
With the hollowness of emptiness.
I can only feel the tears that stream,
Because I realized that dreams
Will never come true;
I will never have you.

Everything that I wanted to stay the same
Has changed,
And I can no longer live with this pain. [comments] => 8 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 48 [informant] => essentially9 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

My Tears Are For You

Everything that I wanted to stay the same
Has changed.

The negativity that I used to need
To live now drowns me.
I'm suffocated by what will never be,
Because I can't reach my dreams.

You were everything that I ever wanted,
And all you did was leave me discarded.

I still stare in the mirror wondering
Why am I still living?
I never had a reason to
Until I fell in love with you.
Yet, everything was a lie
Leaving with a pointless life.

The blood doesn't relieve my pain.
The sorrows start to replace
Every want I had for happiness
With the hollowness of emptiness.
I can only feel the tears that stream,
Because I realized that dreams
Will never come true;
I will never have you.

Everything that I wanted to stay the same
Has changed,
And I can no longer live with this pain.

ok, ill try to say new things about this poem, simply because i seem to always state the obvious--the conclusion blew me away, strong emotions, etc. The thing that i think got to me the most about this poem, was that i could easily put myself into your shoes. This sounds like a part of my recent life, it's just something that calls out to me so beautifully in its simplicity. When a certain part of reality sinks in that you thought you once needed, once understood, suddenly takes on a different, sort of grotesque meaning. I'm a bit long winded here, so i'll just say i really loved this poem, probably my new favorite by you.
