my Collarbone hurts from where
you threw you cup of hot words at me.
the pieces shattered Off my body
For i couldn't tell you what you wanted to hear.
in Fear that you would leave me.
you mean Everything to me
and i cannot let you leave.
Every second without you leaves me damaged.
Starting over can't help
The past already happened
i Aim so many of my attacks at you.
I can't help but not to.
Needing you is what I'm left with every day
and this Sacrifice is killing me slowly.
The reflection in my mirror isn't me.
you Have changed me so much.
Acrylic paintings surround me and
They all look like you...
The coffee bean colors swirl and
not Even angels look this beautiful.
Lying beneath you made me whole
Lying apart from you rips me to shreds.
Sitting here alone makes me think to much.
Trying to forget won't help either.
On and off this feeling is overwhelming.
Reaching for you seems pointless.
i Idolize you and it all seems worth it
until those angel Eyes and Scarlet cheeks
turn away and
walk
out
of
my
life.

and I love how you spelled out that phrase. I did'nt notice when I read it, but it really tied in the title and closed the poem nicely.
Really well written
