It seems like this wall between us,
will never break apart.
I'll forever be missing you,
and you'll forever break my heart.
How is it possible to love someone,
so much that it hurts to breath?
That it almost creates an anxiety
for the fear that they could leave.
All the nights I waited up for you
and then cried when you didn't come home.
Then the anxiety would set in by morning,
when I'd wake up on my own.
And the times I'd cry in the shower
just so you wouldn't hear.
The pain crippled my heart inside
my body was held by fear.
I can feel you disappearing
and theres not a thing that I can do.
And im begging for you to stay with me,
"Because I'm still in love with you."
My pleas are falling upon deaf ears
as you set foot outside my door.
"This isn't working out." You said,
"I don't love you anymore."

that is the worst thing anyone can hear... i dont love you anymore. its painful and heart wretching, and im sorry of you had to go through that. that is definetly the worst way to lose someone who is leaving you. you captured your pain in here really well... especially the crying in the shower so he could hear, part. i loved how you ended it. very good job!

Truly a sad situation. I could really feel your emotion, and I think that went a long way into giving the poem it's rythm.
