Once there was a girl
I loved so much
I couldn't walk away

I lost myself and dreams
Inside her head
I was tossed and turned away

Feelings that I never
Thought would bend
Now lay broken on display

Since then I've lived on destroyed
My life is not the same
Can't talk with anyone
That knows my name
Maybe I'll confide in you
And even stay a while
But I'd be better off walking away

Reminders of the pain
Are never far
The past is everywhere

I wish I'd just gone
Some place else
And never had been there

I guess its what I
Make of it
Some happiness in despair

Well now I'm making my mind
To be happy and believe
This is all a chapter
of my story
I'm tired but I don't mind
And thankyou for your time
Now I'd best be walking
Away

Cool poem, but not NEARLY angsty/despairing/above-it-all enough to be a Vasquez WHB comic!

Enjoyed, though.
