PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

so prone to fall apart,

collapsing underneath all that ever was

what i always wanted to be there,

always failed to appear



it just isn’t mean to be,

i need what i can never ever have

i’m there, but to you, i’ve already left this place,

and left it all behind



i’m collapsing,

the more you turn away, the more i disappear

the more i want this, the more i can’t have it

i can see you, but you won’t ever see me

now i know it just wasn’t meant to be



a rose can’t fall for such a filthy machine

there’s nobody here who can bring me out of this

for all that could have been, and all that never was

i’ve left you all behind, and drifted off to sea



because i’ve always been behind,

and held so far below it

i was never up there with all of you,

so far below the ground



(it’s come to this) because of what you’ve made me,

this life was sure to break me,

now i leave you all so far behind,

like you’ve all left me



it’s too late to turn this back,

too late to make it right

too late to open my eyes,

i’ve already lost my sight

so alone, isolated,

and withdrawn from everything

i can’t make it the way things should have been



there’s no turning back, no repair

all these regrets, and all this empty air

it’s taken me so long, i’m still far below it

i fall apart, and crumble underneath the pressure
