In my soul
you are engraved
In a while
I fight my cage
on the wall
and on my skin
I feel fire
so deep within
with this sorrow
I start to cry
I've lost all
I made you die
forget me not
didn't you say?
it sounded easy
in a strange way
forgetting
is what I crave
denying
that I'm your slave
a heart beats
and it withers
a heart bleeds
oh, disaster
in the end
I need you still
and in time
I hope you will
forget me not
in a second
'cause on you
I must depend
even if
you've gone away
I am here
left astray.

The short lines make it seem choppy, but in a unique way that's not hard to read. Your unintentional rhyme scheme is very affective as well
