wrap me up in your silver words,
and suspend me in the air.
tell me the tales in vivid detail,
every single worry, whim, or care.

then strangle the truth out of a vicoious lie,
im still struggling to see through this light.
at least i can say that i gave it my all,
im sinking and sinking...im ready to fall.

and i can tell in your broken words,
that you wish it didnt end this way.
that you never would have messed this up,
and everything was still okay.

so dont tell me you dont have any regrets,
as you stand in sorrow before me.
your masquerade of unruly lies has broken my pride,
and your lies have taught me nothing.

so ill just say goodbye to you,
and turn around and walk away.
because you dont know that i am right.
but you really will someday.

im done with living in this perfect storm,
made from all of your half-hearted lies.
im through with being timid,
i think its time for you to cry.

guys, i loved all of the names..but after adding this onto it, i thought of running thin. because thats what this poem is about. its about just growing plain sick of that one person thats always on your mind....you just feel like your running thin......

Excellent poem, as always, and good job choosing a title.  

I've stopped fighting my inner demons... we're on the same side now.

-Reddetta (felt like adding the "detta" kinda cool i think i like it, lol. i usually go by red, lol)

I stuck my bare hand into your rip cage and fished around until I found your heart ripped it out tore it apart while saying You dont need this anymore
