I'm going to be doing this alone,
I have a feeling you're not strong enough.
The absence of your calls,
Lets me know you dont want me,
Tells me things with out words.
I guess I don't need you if you don't need me,
and if you don't want to carry this on your shoulders,
Let it slip off and walk away,
Because I can do this alone.
I'll be strong.
I wont call you,
When you dont call back.
I will move on,
and we will do this alone.
If you don't want a part,
In a life you helped create,
Then we don't need you.
Just dissapear from our lifes,
and we will go on alone.
The longer you pull this out,
Dragging my emotions along the ground.
The more it will hurt when you say,
You are alone.
So just say it now,
Vomit it aloud
Scream it to the world.
That way I won't be left wondering but,
I'll know for a fact that I am alone.

This a very good write. I don't even know whatto say about it but I really liked it. Thanks for entering!
-
Good poem but I hated the last stanza it's just out of tone or sync with the rest.
I think I would go back to the beginning and write a final stanza that rhymes with speaking. "I thought immediately we hope you find what you are seeking" I don't know why. -
