She has returned, once again
To plague me as I sleep
Invading my most private of places
Her image stabs so deep

Itâs something I canât escape
No matter where I turn
Haunting my desolate mind
My being is beginning to burn

I lay awake, afraid
Trying to create a prevention
From thinking of this ghost
Trying to avert my attention

But she has jumped from my dreams
From the night into day
She follows me wherever I wander
I wonder how long she will stay

I donât want this
I want to be cured
I wish that my memories
Would altogether, become blurred

Why can I still see her?
Why is she still here?
Does she want everything I possess?
Does she want every single tear?

I wish she would leave
Away from my mind
But to her eternal memory
I am unconditionally bind

I cannot escape
And in the end, I am consumed
The weight is too much
I have finally become entombed

I will always be in love
With nothing more than a memory
She will always be there
And tenderly,

Destroy me.

Snapsicle! Please ignore the little boxes! The lines that have them read "It's something I can't escape" and "I don't want this". Sorry! I'm not quite sure what caused that lol.

Bravo. This is really good.

BTw, where did the poem come from? did you have it in microsoft word, and just copy and paste it here? if so, next time you post something out of microsoft word, paste it into notepad, then copy it from notepad to here.


No one is really sure why Ag hates microsoft word, but It is the only way to avoid the boxes.

Wow actually, this isn't just pretty good, it's very good. Simple, yet inspiring. Got any more?

Oh, don't worry about the boxes, we can still read it.

Well here is another one! It's not as good, mind you, and it needs some work, but let me know how you feel about it lol Enjoy


Your lies have done me in
And I will never forgive this sin
Everything you said was fake
And believing you was such a mistake

How could I not see this?
But I suppose that ignorance is bliss
I was blinded by what I thought was concrete
But the monster you kept away, so discrete

You took advantage of my kindness
And your abuse was so timeless
Youâre lies kept me up in suspension
We were both, forever in a false dimension

Until that day I discovered
When your intentions weâre uncovered
That I was just a mere toy
One so vital to your ploy

I was warned of the signs
But I stepped directly on the mines
Consumed by all of the pain
My body was truly slain

But how could it end this way?
Everything was perfect, every day
It all seemed so right
But what was wrong, was not in my sight

You meant everything to me and more
And all that is left is this whole you tore
But alas! I can write no more
For my knees have hit the floor
Shattered with no hopes to restore
Broken to the very core
