And worst of all..
It was not these
empty screams
nor the shards of
broken lyrics I belted out...
It was the sole simple fact..
that I bled for you
I opened up to you
I believed you
And only you
inside and out...
I believed you...
when you whispered to me
Those sugar coated lies
Lying under the screaming stars
I believed you...
when you cuddled close to me
and told me it'd be alright
That I'll learn to love these scars.
And I believed you again and again
Over and over
Our story that never ends...
that I was not broken,
just simply bent
that I was not shattered,
just had a dent
that I was not pathetic,
just completely spent
that I was not crazy,
just...
well what does it matter now?
My tears inked this paper
but the thoughts of you
turned it into a long vent.
My intricately crafted emotions
now turned into a disaster
not worth a cent.
And no matter what I say
My future is already clear,
written in cement.
And I still love you..
I always will
Though I shouldn't
I relent...

(The poem sounds better if read aloud with emotion... its meant to be a rant)...
I actually wrote it for my friend who recently went through a breakup (Not that its an important detail), but if anyone knows me they know I'm better at expressing other's emotions better than I am at expressing my own... so this one's dedicated to anyone and everyone who can feel these empty lines of ranting poetry in their hearts.
