I know you care
But I'm standing alone
With you by my side
Fighting a losing battle
A battle I thought I won
These feelings never fade
I'm empty and useless
You should turn and leave
I'll never be what you need
Never be enough
I've fallen
Plunged so far
Better if I just go
Don't want to be alone
But I've had enough time
To practice
I think I know how
No heaven will come
Or saviour to take my hand
I've spent so many nights
Screaming silently in the dark
Spent so many tears
On reasons I can't understand
I've fallen
Lay broken on the ground
There is no way left
To be redeemed
Screaming for answers
For questions not understood
This isn't right
This isn't the way
It should be different
It's better if I just go
I don't belong
Maybe we'll meet again
On the other side of that veil

This is a great piece of writing, very emotive and something I can relate to very closely. Tinged with sadness and regret.
' Don't want to be alone
But I've had enough time
To practice '
Those lines spoke volumes to me, for I know all too well how that feels..
Well done on a beautiful poem
