Spirits soar through the sky
Dreams passing Idly by
No one who passes seems to care
That I'm crying in despair
My heart shatters into small portions
My face all wet with distortions
My hair let down in the way
Hoping it will muffle what I say
Its not like I can love again
Though I did, I don’t remember when
It was in the past, sometime ago
Maybe one day my true smile will show
I don't know what it means to be happy
Every chance I might get just passes by me
So in my despair and pain I'm left alone
No more love or passion will I be shown
Distanced in mind from the crowd that gathers about
Not realizing that I began to scream and shout
Gazing upon my dampened face with worried eyes
Everyone thats circled I began to despise
Why would they gaze at my torment
Or wonder why my time was badly spent
Its not like they cared until long after
Because all I ever heard was mocking laughter
But why should they care now, after its all done
Its happened and where’s the sun
Its hidden behind the dark clouds in the sky
Through which, I once loved to fly
The stars that shimmer at night
Are no longer visible to my sight
The rain has put a damper on my day
Because its only in my way
Still gathered wondering why I cry
But disappointed when every possibility I deny
I wont tell anyone what it is that ails me
See, cause even if they knew they’d never really see
No more allowing anyone to get close to my heart
For I know all they would do is rip it apart
So I'm going to ignore everyone and more
Maybe then I can be happy just like before
Though I still have my doubt
I guess all I can do is wait to find out
Hopefully my theory is correct, and Im okay
Only then can I once again see the light of day
So on with my healing process
No more pain will I suppress
Its finally gone, This pain and agony
I'm finally free to show the real me.

This piece is about my ex and all the pain he put me through and how I hid that pain from the people around and even though they could tell there was something wrong they didnt dare to ask until they saw me alone amd crying...

Relationships can create large amounts of pain when they end. Its a good thing though that you are getting it out and on paper

Amazing
No words can explain how deeply this touched me. I have been hurt like this before and I know exactly how it feels to not allow anyone else close to you or your heart. This is a wonderful picture of such a painful situation. This absolutely brought tears to my eyes. Guard your heart but always remember that someday there will be that one person that will treat it right.
