I see horrible brokenness on here...
I cry for you beautiful people.
Written 20 January 2016... see it on here as well as poetfreak

It's your loss, now. I gave you four whole years.
It's my loss too, but I've already paid my dues.
The best? Yes. Not the happiest, but certainly the best.
The best for us both, for sure.

You will always hold a place in my heart and I love you no less, but I love you in a different manner, now.
You're precious to me, more than family indeed; I'm moving on.
I'll be there for you no matter what and I'll never leave you.
You're friendship to me is more priceless than priceless, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
I love you, and this love is saying goodbye.
Written 19 January 2016... tragic how I never did get around to stop loving her... ****

I'm not a poet; only a poetfreak.
I know I won't be put in books
Or go down as a great like Poe.

But I don't care, because I don't need to impress
I only care about making an impact to you.
Yes, you! The one reading what I type.
You're all that matters to me when I write.
I don't refine my poems, I leave them raw
Which means I'm not great at all
Unless you like sushi or steak tartar

In the deepest, most ****** up pit you could ever be in, God Himself comes and holds your heart in the brokenness of it all.
Written 18 January 2016. Yes, I cussed in a praise, but if you knew the context of my life at the time, you'd understand why.

An expressionless despair
Pure agony without care
Wanting to break free
Of this wretched nightmare

Finding out I'm losing heart
All from playing the part
I've lost my head start
And I'm all out of restarts

Dueling this darkness within
A war rages under my skin
Under the dominance of my sin
This road I take will finally end.

I've made my peace, it's time to go
No time left to say hello.
I'll miss you for sure, though
We have played one helluva show.

I know you don't believe me
But you are beautiful

I really don't understand love
I just know I love you.
So let's love, m'kay?

The place I hold in my heart for you
Is chillingly, hauntingly, painfully empty.
I kept it for you, only for you
No other woman would do.
It's weathered a lot of storms
But I never let it deform.
And I waited, keeping everything fixed
You never came, our love is unmixed.
Now I'm here, alone in this house I built
For you, and only for you
No other woman will do.
I'm tired of waiting, now debating
To turn off the no vacancies sign
And let someone else in.
I guess my love for you is a limited time offer, now.

Beat me up and break my skin
But I will not give in.

Tear my flesh and break my teeth
But I'm not going beneath.

Slash my heart and pierce my soul
But I won't go in that hole.

Put me in a casket and bury me
It won't make a difference, I refuse to flee.

I won't back down ever.

I see you, your life, your love, your pain...
I swear I'm looking in a mirror.
Because you and I are so alike
I think if we switched lives we would still be the same.
I'm yin and you're yang even though I'm yang and you're yin.
If you and I were mirrors, we would create infinity in our reflections.
