Dear Friend,

I need to tell you something,
I dont know what to say.
You see,
I've slowly been fading away,
By each passing day.
Everything about life is killing me,
One by one,
Hitting me with a silent blow.
I guess what i'm trying to say is,
That i really want to go.
I never wanted to leave you,
Your the best thing in the world.
But nothing lasts forever,
I learned that as a little girl.
I want to believe that i can be happy,
But i doubt i ever will.
Life is so bland and dark,
Its lost all of its thrill.
I've tried to make you understand,
Throughout this hard long road.
But i guess i couldnt express to you enough,
That these just arent words told.
Dont tell me to push it away,
If i could then i'd be happy today.
It's ruined my life,
I can no longer fight back.
I'm sorry,
I just cant last.
I'm weak,
And my strength has faded away.
I get overwhelmed,
With the thoughts of the coming day.
So you see my friend,
Life's not all it seems.
Not for me atleast,
We can no longer fight this as a team.
I'm going solo,
And solo i must depart.
But for you i leave,
My dedicated heart.
Your the most important thing to me,
Know even when and if i leave,
We could never be apart.

Love,
Michele

I guess I feel kind of sad after reading this.  That's just what the poem did for me.  Is this relly how you feel?  It's a very well written poem.

Nice writing... kinda sad, but sometimes that's life, ehh? I hope this isn't true to life, but if it is good luck fixing it all. Kudos!

I know exactly how you feel girl, life isn't that easy and well when we don't want to deal with it we just don't want to deal with it. My situation is a little different from yours, my so-called best friend is ditching me, so in a way we kinda have something in common here. But try to stay strong and hold your head up high, and don't let the man get you down.   smiles ¤poe¤

Life isn't about holding grudges or starting fights life is meant to be enjoyed
