My cries floated with the wind
entertwining and breaking my own heart
I was reaching past the incadescent lies
toward a face I used to know
Visions full of laughter caught me off gaurd
and I choked on the words that used to come
so, so easily
I keep searching these hallowed halls
running into nothing more than
my hallowed self
"let thine eyes reach mine"
screamed something that sounded like you
but the tears in my eyes
and the lack of breath on my tounge
left me with no reply
My hands clicnch a frame
that some call me
Though all I feel is a dead dream
that forgot the color of daisies
the day you dissappeared
and I keep reaching
begging
running
pleading
For something more than just excuses
And as all these words pull apart at the
edges
of me
I think...
You.
You broke me
Author notes
I just feel lost
this isnt actually about another person
just another part of myself

Wow.
This is beautifully written, and something that is easy to identify with. Lovely Imagery.
"Though all I feel is a dead dream
That forgot the color of daisies
The day you dissappeared"
I love this -
