The Clock Swallows Me

by Vanessa   Nov 5, 2008


I have no more time...
No. No, I have all the time in the world
And nothing to do,
But to watch the world pass me by,
watch people walk effortlessly,
when I can't even breathe.
Envy has wrapped itself around me
And isn't letting go.

I am missing the person I use to be,
and who we used to be.
Back when we were happy.
When it was easy to smile,
but now it hurts like hell.

    Reminds me of yesterday. I went through my poems and read them all, and realized that some were written for different ones. And one was written for the girl I thought was the one. well, we broke up a year later, and damn, that sucked. It put this kind of darkness in me for her, even though we broke up as friends.
    Well, this poem was a 5/5 poem.

    'Envy has wrapped itself around me
    And isn't letting go.' That is some awesome writing there and my favorite part of the poem.
