Watching as
You pack your things
Telephone
That never rings
A silence falls
Crawling underneath my skin
Sticks and stones
And shadows fly
Slam the door
Don't say goodbye
A lonliness that lives within

Now I find I'm
Standing still
My hands untied
My world unreal
And I with nothing
More to feel
Would say to you

Humanize me
Realize me
Don't look away
Patronize me
Hypnotize me
Follow me as I run crying
Farther and farther away

From this empty room
Where I once loved you
Held your gaze
Became part of you
I'll be back someday

Angry words
I hear you say
Long ago
But still they lay
Upon my heart
As lethal as you spoke them
Tender lies
Oh so well said
Memories
Float through my head
All broken now
And no one to provoke them

Now I find
I'm letting go
A stronger me
You'd never know
And you with nothing
More to throw
Would find a way

Humanize me
Realize me
Don't walk away
Patronize me
Hypnotize me
Follow me as I run screaming
Farther and farther away

From this empty room
Where I once loved you
Kissed your tears
Now rise above you
I'll be back someday
I already know you can't fade




I'll just keep on laughing,
Hiding the tears in my eyes...

I thought the poems format and style was realy really good. The poem in general was kick ass. I just thought it was an all around poem. Not too many of those here. Good job!
