» Poem: break
break

It's been a year since I was here
yet time's not dried a single tear

I've come a long way since then
all the way back to where I started
and now I cry again
lost and broken-hearted

It wasn't meant to be, I see that now
but I'd give anything if it could be different, somehow.

I don't know who I am now
don't know who I will be
don't know quite how
she fell in love with me

the only thing I can say I've learned
through this eternity of hurt

is that the isolation, the bridges burned
have left me with less than dirt

I don't know where to go from here
don't know how to carry on
when swimming in this pain and fear
the love, the joy, the reason is gone.

So here I stand, or rather, kneel
here I sit and cry
drowning in that which I feel
and I can't even ask why.

I would give anything just to feel
the love I felt before
if I had anything to give, I'd trade it
to not feel this anymore

so now I look around myself
the terrain is unfamiliar
I see it in my memories
along with images of her

All I have left are dreams and tears
and the fullfillment of my greatest fears
the loss of all that I held dear
and now I'm the only one here

except I don't know where here is
I don't know where I've been
after I've played all my cards
what do I do then?
