Torment

I feel worthless
When I make you helpless;
When you have to
Breathe for both me and you.
Sometimes there’re times
My heart breaks into cries…
Leaving you there
Not able to compare
Your thoughts with mine,
While you watch it un-wind.
I hate to see
You stuck on the outside,
Watching me here
Just breaking up with tears.
Tortured and bent
With all of this torment.
Can you hear me?
I can’t hear you.
Where am I now?
What should I do?
Can you hear me calling?
I cannot see your face.
Where am I heading to?
What should I replace?
You can’t hear me,
But I hear you.
I am here now.
Nothing to do.
You don’t hear my calling,
I can see your face.
Nowhere to turn to
There’s nothing to replace.
