Left For Dead

by Travis   Aug 29, 2008


Take me away from this place
I don't belong here
It's so hard to keep a straight face
I'm stuck in first gear.

My pain is controlling every aspect of my life
Death is just one cut away
I don't know what to do, I'm clutching onto this pocket knife.
I don't think I'm going to be okay.

My love is up in the air
But it's too hard to breathe
I don't know if I should care
I'm in seethe

Troubled times have gone too far
Let it all fade out
I'm left with this scar
It's making me thrash, without a doubt

It's like you left me for dead
I don't know what to say anymore
I never understood what you said
I just wish everything would be like before

I hope you respond to me email
Don't take the easy way out, don't take the side door
I know we can make it, we can make this love sail
You can trust me, just take my hand once more.

    I reread this....

    It kills me that this was written by you.
    Tough times, no doubt.

    You kept this very real. Very heart breaking.
    Great depths written here Trav.

    If I could vote again, I'd give it 5/5. 1/5 because it's so sad but 5/5 because I know you well.

    Very well put. I write with a similar rhyming patern. Much emotion was shown through out the peice, and your message was sent out to the reader clearly. Great job, 5/5.
