I hate Trying (Get over You)

I hate Trying (Get over You)

A Poem by David-Tyler

I hate trying to get over you
You were never supposed to get so far with me
I could never leave like I always do
So now you've packed up, and you're walking free

Please just run before I fall again
I don't want to crawl on my knees begging 
There's no way I could win
So now I'm picking up the pieces, starting with bedding

My soul cries out as I stand paralyzed 
I tried talking, but you're head's harder than concrete
So I know your decision's finalized 
But I can't get kissing you out of my head, you taste so sweet

I want to cry, I want to scream
I don't ever want to dream at night again if it's always you
Because I miss you something so extreme
And the memories leave me painted purple and blue 

Up is down, heaven is hell 
Without you everything is wrong, and I'm giving up
I give up trying to feel well
Sitting in a bathroom stall, watching my life blow up

I hate trying to get over you
You were never supposed to get so far with me
I could never leave like I always do
So now you've packed up, and you're walking free

It's terrible how heartbreak can bring out such vulnerability.
"I give up trying to feel well"
Such desperation and hurt. I feel for you.
When you mention
"You were never supposed to get so far with me I could never leave like I always do"
It sounds like this love came out of nowhere. Intentions at the beginning changed so quickly. I feel like that hurts even more. I feel like my best writing comes from moments of pain. Not sure if that's the same for you, but for me, it's almost like I have to be in a state of sadness to write something eloquently. I appreciate you being vulnerable. I hope writing helps to mend your heart.

Thank you so much! I'm the same way. I said it before, and it's awful of me to paraphrase my own quo.. read more
There's a song by a group called Marillion. It's called "Hooks in you." I think the lyrics should suffice.
