I can't stand a word you say
I have to fight this feeling
Every single day.
I'm locked away inside of a cell
Not of secrets or lies
But emotions.
I'm murdered with these feelings
I'm driving myself insane,
Whose to blame?
No one except myself.
I dream about what will happen next.
Good or evil?
Black or white?
Will I die?
Or will I stay alive?
These questions are buried in
The back of my mind.
I have to deal with hurt and pain.
All because of one mistake.
I have to deal with lust and love
Everyday.
Tears run down my face
At a slow and steady pace.
Whimpering.
Everyday.
My life has gone to waste
I am lost in a place
In space
No escape
That i must face
Everyday.

I made a mistake and now it haunts me everyday. Just take it one day at a time. It will get better in due time, I promise.

Amazing work you have a gift. The emotion though raw is not overwhelming like in some poems. Keep up the good work.

Dang, incredibly intense and powerful. I can definitely relate... been forced to grow up really fast because of some things in my life so I can totally relate to a lot of things, especially like this. Keep it up.
