haunted

All my hiding places are no longer secret
the further I run, the closer I get

I run from the pain, I try to conceal
I put on a face that hides what I feel

I can lie to everyone but not to myself
my love for her cant be put on a shelf

Not an hour goes by without her in my thoughts
and while my heart still beats, the rest of me rots

I cant think of her without thinking of whats gone
no matter how many claim that I can move on

it's been a long time since I felt I wanted to live
since someone returned the love I could give

3 years of happiness, 3 years of crying
a mask of denial, dying and lying

I'm broken and all thats left is to die
everyone says "hang in there" but I don't see why

why should I go on when I feel this way
let me let go, let me fade away

let me say goodbye let me end this hurt
you don't have to remember me when I'm in the dirt

I had my taste of love
my temporary happiness

I envy the dead
because they don't have to feel this

Awesome poem. I love it. I can totally not relate, but still can in a sense.
