Ill try not to cry

Im swollen,
I cant breath,
nor can I live on.

Im taken back to a
place where my
comprehension on life
is deluded by deception
and mistrust.

Im fooled with the lies
and assumptions brought
forth to me.

Im mistreated by the
ungrateful, selfish people
who cant begin to
understand how another
person can possibly feel.

Im emotionally thrashed
by the claws of greed.
Heart broken and shattered like a
unique vase that can never
be replaced.

Although I chose this path.
I do not know what to regret.

Should I regret letting you go?
Or should I regret ever letting
my feelings grow for you
to begin with?

Either way my life was doomed to despair and sorrow.
Its just something I was
obviously born to experience.

The next time I wake up,
Ill try not to cry.
