The past year of my life has been very trivial...I was in a relationship with a guy who struggled with many substance abuse problems...I know this poem is fairly structureless,but I haven't written in ages and this one just poured out of me.....


Dark eyes,
white powder.
Lost love
wilted flower.
Damaged soul
whimpers in the night
Lost in chaos,
no end in sight.

Addictions fed,
breaking hearts.
Ever after,
never starts.
Lost hope,
shattered dreams.
Clouded memories,
silenced screams.

Beautiful confusion,
could never let go.
Inner conflict,
too hard to hold
Burning desire,
empty mind.
Southern soul mate
left behind.

Influential struggle,
lost fight.
Naive lovers,
powerless tonight.
Colourful illusions,
ultimate sin.
Strike three,
dark side wins.

Attempt escape,
quiet cries.
Unconscious battle,
hands are tied.
Blackened hearts,
empty void.
Disrupted perfection,
lives destroyed

*for someone who's used to heartache,losing it all was just a matter of time*
Be kind,for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle

Dido, i could totally feel the emotion in this. The rhyming didnt sound forced, which is amazing in a write like this. I dont think i could ever write something like this. You are very talented.\

I want a relationship i can finally sink my teeth into.~ Alexander Sterling
