The fuse ran out and the bomb blew,
And another dark storm appeared, another challenge for me to go through.

It's like an old broken record stuck on repeat,
In my bare feet I must travel down this dark, glass covered street.

When the clouds get too thick, when my mind goes bleak,
I'd look up and feel soft rain drip onto my cheek.

Darkness would always be there, it wouldn't miss a beat,
I'll get through this long dark broken street.

I guess I expected too much, to be saved by a light,
It's just too much, I've given up the fight.

There's nothing you can do when all the lights go out,
No one can hear my desperate shouts.

I will walk this long road, I will make my last stand,
Life doesn't always go as planned.

Don't pity me, just leave me to my shame,
I've waited for a light that never came.

It seems so strange how love can still exist in this messed up world,
And how memories can still live on.. Even after our roads devised.

We bumped into each other in the hall one day. As I blushed and apologized you smiled and told me I was classy.

Under the sweet smells of popcorn and that warm summer air.. We shared our first kiss.. And we held hands from there on in.
We would run around the streets and laugh like lunatics..

Everything would be so great, the town thought we were mad.
We took our walks on the beach, and danced under the moonlight sky, with the candles glowing below.

We would jump in the leaves and twirl with them dancing around us We called it dancing with the leaves.

We made pillow forts and had our Nerf wars on the cold winter days, to end it all off with a hot coffee as the suns rays dipped under the horizon.

We would pretend we were birds and fly with the wind atop of large hills, then run down them as if they were a large valleys.

We had our days, we both shed tears, and we both messed up. But we would always end it with a " I need you" letter.

We wrote in a bottle: "we will always be." .. And then threw it into the river. It all changed soon after I got that text..

You moved away. That day.. I fell to pieces..
It was like time itself had stopped and I couldn't breath.
I had been stabbed with bits of glass, I couldn't help but scream..

I haven't quite been the same, I've turned into a emotional wrack.
Trying to fill a void that's been empty for so long..
If you saw me now.. You'd be disappointed.. I'm not the same guy you fell in love with..

My hair isn't combed and doesn't have that brown shine, my eyes glow black and my skins gone sour, I've become more hunched, and I always have a cloud over my head.
No one seems to care,
So with this pain I must bare.

I never stopped caring, now I'm dealing with the weight of the world.
People say that there is someone out there for me. To stop dwelling on the past and move onto the here and now. There was someone out there but now she's gone.
I cry every night and then think of you, and that's when I realize,

I'm lost without you.

There always seems to be someone better,
One who seems.. Perfect.

He will always be better, and more cunning then you,
He just seems to slice you up and then force you to say what is true.

That he is better then you,
That he won her heart, and you got kicked with a shoe.

He.. Was Link,
Destined for far more greater things then just writing with ink.

He was my brother.. And I am his other half,
Ive turned to a shadow now.. I don't even utter the softest laugh.

I've turned to hatred and have given the cold shoulder,
And I don't even look older.

Zelda and Link,
They were together as soon as I blinked.

They fight together now,
I've been replaced this is something I won't allow.

I am Links shadow,
And I've been damaged by too many arrows.

You were the girl in the photograph,
As beautiful as the words written by the holograph.

I remember us smiling and laughing
together,
But now it seems we are on opposite ends of the tether.

We're really just strangers, now only figments in each others heads,
We both agreed that we needed to cut all the mental threads.

We shared a lot of moments which where happy and sad,
I'll even be staying behind, while you walk up the steps at grad.

I'm glad you and him are still together,
And I guess it's best for us to remain at opposite ends of the tether.

Even though we don't talk, I still care,
I told you I would be there with you, But now I shall be in the shadows, you probably won't even stop and give me the stare.

I know you will go far with what ever you do,
And now you can finally see that I am not feeling so blue.

I've recovered, just like you had said,
My wounds will no longer bleed the colour red.

But this is all fine, it was the choice we both chose,
And I guess it was just another chapter of love, grief, and agony finally coming to a close.

They all seem to lie,
Using the sweet, "harmless" type of lie, but I never would have suspected you.

You don't realize the damage you've done,
Your little lie isn't a little "harmless" pun.

Well I can see through your lie, your sweet little lie,
You do not know what my eye can see.

I don't need Links "Eye of Truth" To see what you have become,
I was fed to many of your sweet little lies.

Really, stop with the disguise,
It doesn't fool me anymore.

I'm sick of your sweet little lies,
So I guess this is our "sweet little" goodbye.

Maybe ill tell "the other guy" about your little lies too,
So that he won't become too broken when he realizes how undecided you are.

There is a black bottomless pit,
It consumes you when your weak, and breaks down your wits.

Life seems so pointless when you've reached your wits end,
Where words stick to your head, and your mind begins to bend.

You don't want to get up and see the world anew,
Your mind confines you, the voices then agree too, they hate you.

You try so hard to find an exit in this barren black pit,
But every time you try to get out you get hit.

People have pushed me to the point on where I can't trust them anymore,
They just walk all over you, they scrape there feet on the floor.

No one really gives a ****,
They just tell you to scram.

When you are getting ready to skip town,
Don't look at there false frowns.

They will yell "Don't leave! We need you!"
Don't listen to them, it isn't true.

They tell you what you wish to hear,
It's never really true.

My conclusion is simple: love only a few
Trust no one. They only make you cry blue.

Then you feel as though you are dead,
But then you realize, it's all in your head.

I know so many people, who love the same ***,
And hec I've been asked out by one over text.

I don't like the same ***, but I support them,
Every one should be able to love, and put on a wedding gem.

They are the people who make our world different, in the best way it can possibly be,
I hate the world being normal, maybe now the people will see.

That loving the same ***, is just as normal as loving opposite,
Now, maybe this poem will make you more confident.

If your gay and reading this, I want to just say,
I'm proud of you, you are still a person just like the rest of us, may your sky never be grey.

We are all the same, we have fingers, hands, brains, muscles and skin,
So then loving the same *** shouldent be a sin.

Love, and be yourself,
Your not a "***** object" that belongs on a self.

Your a human being like the rest of us,
You have the right to love and express.

Always remember,
Hold this when you start back in September.

Your loved, your human,
There may not have been an Adam and Steve, but your loved, if love is locked up its inhuman.

Now go out, and find your love,
Go now, be free like a dove.

It's should automatically be a right,
See? He supports it.

"I might not be the same, but that's not important
No freedom till we're equal, **** right I support it"
