Weakness Leads to Pieces

by Stef   Aug 26, 2005


I gave you such a world that I thought could not be destroyed
Then slowly watched you pick it apart
Day after day.
My sanity faltering, I tried to collect the pieces
And glue them back together with our trust.
But alas…
Our trust was weak as was your honesty
And the pieces all fell back into your hands.
I watched you throw them away, and
Too weak to run after them
I too fell into oblivion.

It was a master plan, a well thought-out decision
That led to a mistake, which was clearly was unfixable.
In the midst of everything
I thought for a moment that you were going to care.
I was wrong once more, but then again
Who does that surprise?
And as I watched the sun rise over the mountains
I was sure that, like it
I would be able to rise once more.

The fall into the depression is a long one
The climb out…impossible.
When the realization finally hit me
That it was really you who threw me down here
I had already lost my grip on happiness.
Your cold heart would not allowed you to help me
Instead you laughed.
And as I slowly sank lower down into the darkness
I saw you walk away
A smile on your face.

The cold has turned to numb now
Reality has turned to fantasy
And I feel nothing but emptiness inside.
My world that I was sure could never be destroyed
Is lying somewhere, broken above me
The shards remaining in a life
Where I cannot return.
I once fought to climb this walls that rise into the sky
Where I can see the world waiting for me
But every time I fell.
I will not fight anymore, and I have accepted the fact
That although it is you who should be here
It will be me who stays.
