Why

by paul alexander   Jul 1, 2007


You have me in a circle of depression
you have me under submission
the emptiness grows inside me
it grows with every second
i scream to the world
to let me have my girl

why cant i get past it?
why do i keep it in my mind?
why don't you hurt like i do?
why cant i shake you lose?

i try so hard to move on
but every time i i try
i cry into a sad sleep
my eyes are so heavy
heavy with depression

why cant i just move on?
why cant i get you out of my head?
why must i feel this loss?
why must i live instead?

you have my heart still
i must move to some other place
to see some other face
its to late to save me
I'm already dead to you

    Your poems is almost flawless. I mean Its very beautiful but still there is room for improvement. I loved your word choice and liked the flow. The word "you" in the last stanzas might be a mistake or else you might have deliberately written it for emphasis. Then its ok. U need to vote, to get a vote. :)
