Collapsable Terms

Folder: 
ALEX

You've given in

To the ever-rising pressure

Crumbled beneath the blade

Becoming hollow and empty

Numb to everyone but her



I never knew we were on

Collapsable terms

That both of us

Would think to break that promise

The one chain to the past



Our past

Our dreams

Shattered as easily as glass

Our tears were meaningless

The obstacles were too much



Our struggle to stay together..was in vain

Nothing meant a single thing

You don't remember our memories



The laughter

The dreams

The loving touches

Our daughter Alexis

The unborn child

The long summer conversations..



They all haunt me

While you sit with her

Making new memories

As your old ones fade slowly

I'm glad your happy...but



Don't erase the memory of me

Who I am and

Who I was to you..

That's all I ask.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I cut myself for the first time since last year. 28 times in all; 15 times on the top of my left arm, 7 on my left wrist, and 6 on the top of my right arm.
