Grinding Gears

I am alone
Ever so alone inside these corridors
They whisper words through empty halls
About things that make my skin crawl

They tell me things
About how you've gone away from me
Left me here, holding here
Nothing left but hiding, Dear

Playing off of my new found fears
Calling out to the shadows, unclear
Struggling here, dying here
I am nothing but lies, Dear

Hollow words from your false sincere
Please just go from me, disappear
Distance is ever so queer
And They tell me all as it appears

My made up life is smeared
While They peer down upon me
They know your near
They shall end you with a sneer

You have left me here, haunted & feared
Hanging me, killing me, letting me disappear
Darling I don't need you near
Everything is ever so clear...

Author notes

He who can save me is they who are killing me.

Well....suppose you can give me something to work with?

    "hollow words from your false sincere"
    you should give yourself a little pat on the back at comming up with that awsome play on words. Good job at sustaining that rhyme throghout the poem too. I've always found lyric verse easier in a way because you only have a limited word bank to choose from. I usually can't keep it up for any length of time though before I start blasting off into outer space.
