And She is My Shadow

Open, broken, empty... what?
She's there again.
Follow me.
I go again.
No.
Homely, lonely, angry... why?
She smiles.
I stare.
She's taking me there.
Bringing me... where?
There.
Her empty kingdom of... what?
I can't.
What is this?
Am i dead?
She shakes her head.
Smile.
It's all okay now.
How?
Just rest.
You did your best.
Leave the rest,
To me.

Author notes

This poem is about Carrie. I can't tell you who she is exactly because she isn't. That's just it. She was though. I hate her and love her at the same time, but she's not really here though and she never was. She hurt me. She made me hurt. She can't hurt me anymore, but she was once the other me inside me. She is noone though and noone knows her except me even though some people do know about her. I can't tell you who she is, simply because she isn't.

    you lost me again kid, come on and make it something, your poem shouldn't have to be explained for it to make sence... that space is more for what you were feeling at the time or what caused you to write it
