between space and time

I worked hard to gain your trust   just to be rejected,
Frequently ignoring me   what skill you have perfected.
I sit sometimes and wonder   why you do the things you do,
Can’t you see the pain in me   I feel lonely too.
Weekend after weekend alone in my own life,
Awakened by my screaming as you stabbed me with the knife.
Our paths were crossed at one time  I’m glad you were my friend,
But now I feel that our forked paths   will bring that to an end.
Once more I find an empty path   with naught but my blue pen,
And I stay tall though I fall   and hope our paths do cross again.

" How can i feel if i can't breathe...?"

Very strong words here. Well done on the poem Kaos, I'm looking forward to more.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
