She Left Me

The lights are on but no body’s home

My heart has gone now I’m all alone



She left me hangin on every word

She left me sittin on top of the world

And now I’m fallin



I can’t even sleep at night

Her darkness overpowers my light

I fall to the floor and cry

But every tear that drops from my eye

Is a memory of me and her

Having fun and hanging out

The shadow of my face on the wall

Echoes the pain of that day down the hall

My friends can’t even take it away



She left me hear on the edge of the world

She left me with no one to stop the gun

No one but me



Now I’m fallin so I might as well jump

The desk is only six feet away

My peace is in the drawer

The one thing that could take it all away

My face on the floor, the blood, the goar

I walk but she stops me, so I guess I’ll stay

It’s not my time to go

But she’s gone away



She left me hangin on every word



She said I need space to try something new

She said there’s nothing wrong with you

She said don’t worry I’m not gone

I’m just not coming home.

Then she left me hear and now I’m all alone

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This was written as more of a song than a poem.  I like to make them all different, to try and hide my style, so that no one will know that I wrote it just by looking at it.  I don't think it works.

I think this is beautiful. You did very well, and it does work. Ya, when I was reading this I was thinking that it was meant to be more of a song. I love it!
