I would liken you
To a night without stars
Were it not for your eyes.
I would liken you
To a sleep without dreams
Were it not for your songs.
Time counting down,
The ticking obnoxious.
The way it used to be,
weighing down on me so.

Unfortunately,
it's all i have left.
Time;
the memories.

Please don't forget,
those days long ago.
You're still here with me,
wherever you go.

I've been battered;
rejected,
hurt, and
abused;
but you?

You ruined.
You broke.
You bruised.

I want to move forward,
I want to renew,
be free, be in love,
But with you.

The clock ticks,
now it tocks,
what a waste,
just my loss.

Look back,
I see you,
my feelings,
abused.

If's are stupid,
wants are over-used,
I could have fixed it,
It could have been true.

Useless,
I'm worthless,
much too caring,
and kind.

And as this time clicks,
I'll die curled up in my mind.
