Never You

Do you want to stumble through a heaven we don't believe in

I'd like a break from all the days spent in hell

Maybe it'll help heal the cracks in my shell

Some days I think only salt water can slip between the cracks

Like it's waving through my thoughts

I know my soul can be bought for only those salt water tears

But I think you'd understand 

After I've spent so many years in dry dirt and moist mud

And after trees and cactus splinters carved intricate cuts on my skin

After so many nights spent in the cold horrors of my mind

You'd understand why I hate humankind

But not you

Never you

Raw pain is felt. In the words of this poem. I love the vulnerability expressed. True emotion is spelled out. In every sentence and its description. I thoroughly enjoyed this read. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful, and heart breaking simultaneously

Painful, your words arouse sympathy and attention towards your thoughts. You have expressed your emotions really well.
