I need you,
But you don't see me,
I bleed for you,
But you don't care if I succeed,
How do you sleep at night?
Life is devoid of color now,
It all left with you,
And now I can't see,
How to find my way back home,
Do you really not hear me?
Sleepless, thoughtless, tormented nights,
And monsters in my dreams,
Slowly I'm able to crawl to the surface,
Only for you to stomp on me?,
Is it really so hard to see?
I'm here if you'd open your eyes,
Instead of constantly looking,
Up at the empty sky,
Like some snob off the road,
Has your heart really gotten so slow?
Now I'm here and the tears are gone,
Dried up with all the memories,
Good times picked up and left,
Though of course I'm still here,
I begin to wonder, can you feel?
Angry all of the time,
Slowly there's no way out,
Consumed by all the hate and fear,
You caused all these years,
I see the monster inside you is happy.
Surely I must be dying,
Life can't be this cruel,
Disrupted by one person alone,
Anguish is the only emotion,
Will you please let me wake up?
Please tell me what you think

Good
A lot of deep soul searching going on here. You have a gift with words that is simple yet so powerful. Your emotions and pain wrap themselves around your words and we are left in awe. The descriptive wording and the great imagery bring this piece to life.
