Exposed;;

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.
