How Could You

by Jena   Jul 20, 2006


Everything has gone wrong,
this heart just can't stay strong.
Everyone important has faded away,
I'm so sad I don't want to see another day.
So many memories linger in my head,
every little thing that you've once said.
I feel lost and confused,
trusting you was a mistake I knew.
Now do you understand why
I always thought it was all a lie.
You proved me right, many times.
I'm trapped inside, as quiet as mimes.
You've drained the person out of me,
my eyes stay swollen as I hit my knees.
I sit there shaking with pain,
feeling like I'm locked up with chains.
I cry out as the tears flow,
but only when alone is when this all will show.
While I'm lost in my own thoughts,
what good is a rope covered with knots?
How to undo them no body knows,
as they try, the pain just grows.
I wonder if this will come to an end,
or is this some kind of new trend.
I try and tell myself it will be ok, that I wont cry anymore,
but I think I'll believe it the day my heart isn't sore.

    Wonderful poem and great use of comparisons (quiet as mimes, a rope covered with knots, etc.)
