Untitled

By ComeLittleLeaves

Reflecting on what could have been
I now must see the truth inside
Mistakes were made and then forgot
We were tested but never tried.

This light my path shall never cross
My eyes I close so not to see
The world is spinning pressing down
The darkness sets in upon me.

The sun, it shines above and bright
But in darkened room forever
I find myself in solitude
Waiting for the chance to sever.

The ties that bind are close at hand
These lies are never-ending
I hope that you will understand
I have to stop pretending.

What can I do, what can be done
This is tearing me up in two
I tried to be your everything
But to me you couldn't be true.

The time has come to face the truth
This dread I fear has not faded
The pain lessens but never leaves
I'm feeling nothing but jaded.

What comes next is always certain
Everything all at one collides
It seems there's nothing else to say
All that's left are final goodbyes.

My journey is almost over
Take from me my soul's disgrace
Let the darkness fall around me
And rob me of love's embrace.

    I love the ending. "And rob me of love's embrace", nicely worde. The emotion and feeling in this is amazing. I love the image it paints in your mind as you read. Made me read it from the begining. Keep it up and welcome to DP;)
