The poem is blank because my heart is empty...
Joe Spicher Jan 2015
I miss you.
I know you aren't gonna ever love me.
I know things will never be the same between us.
I know your life is happier now than when I was part of it.
But you said I was your best friend.
And best friends don't just up and leave,
Never to return.
I miss my best friend.
I want her back.
Not as a girlfriend, although that would be nice,
But I just want my only true friend back.
Someone I can talk to and be me with.
Someone who knows my flaws and still accepts me.
I miss you.
Please come back into my life.

I see so much pain.
So much hurt and depression.
Talk of suicide and self injury.
I know nothing that anyone says will help the hurt.
So I encourage everyone who knows someone like this,
To just listen.
Don't try giving advice,
It doesn't help.
Don't tell us stories of yourself in a similar situation,
We are different.
We just want someone to listen to us and be there for us.

And for everyone who feels worthless and ready to die,
Hang in there.
You are loved.
More people than you could imagine care about you.
I know it won't be easy at all,
But try.
Even if you only find one reason to live and a million to die,
Fight for that one reason.

Every night when I go to bed,
I pray to God that he would make me dead.
I hate my life more everyday,
Because you keep moving farther away.
You took my love and broke my heart.
That's when these feelings happened to start.
I'm too much a coward to do it myself.
That's why I pray to God to destroy my health.
God, please take me home tonight.
For I wish to finally give up the fight.

You tell people that I'm emotionally unstable.
What do you expect?
I gave you everything I had, all of me.
And you broke my heart and left me for dead.
Am I expected to be able to just pick myself up and move on?
How could I when I'm nothing without you.
Of course I'm emotionally unstable.
Wouldn't you be if someone ripped out your heart and shattered it?
