Seeing the Light
I've given, and you've taken.
I've lost, and you've gained.
I cry, and you laugh.
Why do you do this to me?
Torcher me with this pain?
I can see it in your eyes,
There's no remorse.....no guilt.
But why should I be the one to suffer?
Take all the blame and hatred.
You always put me down,
So deep that I can't climb out.
I'm surrounded by darkness,
No light is shed for me.
Just a cold abyss.
I'm cold and numb.
No longer feeling,
Only thinking of what we have become.
I feel as if I can't go on,
But I know I have to.
From that first spark of hatred,
you ruined me.....and us.
Why do you have to be this way?
I thought you were perfect,
My one and only.
But you shred those hopes,
and they blew away with the wind.
Now I wonder if we will ever be.
I know we won't, but still I hold on.
I hold on with a tight grip,
Hoping not to fall back into that forsaken abyss,
But in the end you let go.
Cursing me into a lifeless shell,
A world without colors or meaning.
The horror and fear is always in my eyes,
You just never see it.
It has been so long since i have felt,
Since the last time I shed a tear for you.
I am cold, worn, and tired,
And still you pick at my sanity.
My mind is a mess because of you.
Thanks to this darkness that I thought was eternal,
I finally see the light.
At the top of this gaping hole i call my mind.
A bright world of feeling and color,
No longer held prisoner by fear.
I take that first step into the future,
And you try to hold me back,
Just like you always do.
But this time I won't give in.
To that unquenched thirst that I have for you.
I'm full of you lies and just want to move on.
I have made my choice now,
You made yours a while ago.
I should have said no when you asked to be my friend.
I should have said no when you asked to be more than that.
Now I look back on those mistakes,
And see them as an open door.
The light is now brighter than ever as i step over that threshold,
Leaving you behind.
I won't look back.
Won't show any remorse or guilt,
Just as I have learned from you.
With that last thought you fade away,
Into a distant past.
As I follow MY OWN two feet,
Into the unexpected future.
I've lost, and you've gained.
I cry, and you laugh.
Why do you do this to me?
Torcher me with this pain?
