epilogue



Friday, July 24, 2009

Take it all away,
bit by bit,
flake by flake.
Until there is nothing left,
but a raw and vulnerable you.
How long can you last?

My insecurities threaten to drown me,
and my mind seems to want to overthrow me.
It seems harder to function,
even the simple motion of walking seems odd,
unfamiliar and perhaps even difficult.
Do I look okay to you?
If I do, then give me an award,
because I must say I think I'm going to crack.

I can hear the constant murmuring in my mind,
those looks I see.
I can't help but wonder and wonder,
until there is nothing left to pick apart.

To lose a part of me once was bad enough,
now I'm losing a sweet memory.
One that can never be replaced.
I feel so apologetic, so sorry,
I hope they never see and find this side of me.
I want to keep these flaws hidden,
but they must know how weak I am.
After all, I could never be strong.

Maybe tomorrow when I wake up,
the world will be gone,
and all that is left will be me.
Alone.
It feels that way,
quite too often for my liking.

It feels I am worth little more than a penny.
For how long can I lie to myself?
I didn't mean to break your heart,
nor my own, why should I?
But I did it anyway.
Made you hurt,
made me hurt.
I'm a fool.

Nothing ever goes right,
even when it seems like it is going to.
Is a warm hug too much to ask for?
