When you walked out on me today
You took away my hope and my heart
Left me with nothing but empty memories
I promised you my every tomorrow
You turned everything I said into dust
Poisoned words lying in shallow graves
Merely faithless letters of forgotten dreams
I can no longer see my own reflection
I'd built it out of every day I'd spent with you
Now it has all but burned away
By the boiling tears that scar my sight
Frightened and anxious moments
The scavengers of who I was
Every day after today has no more meaning
I will always be defined by yesterday with you.

"By the boiling tears that scar my sight" That was intense and since my name is scarsfade i totally relate to it. This was a truely sad but honest poem and i feel it very close to me when i read it, this was a great expression of how you feel and it was well writen, much <3...scars.
