A battle within yourself

Maybe it was me who pushed you away,
And maybe it was me who went insane
But I promise I'm done with the games
I'm done with bull, that's all I can say
You can take me up on that
You put it on my grave
engrave every word that I say
I miss you more and more every day
Its like a part of me passed away
I miss the funny you, with the smiles, the one never blue
I loved the way you would laugh
You know the real you
With every word you always gave some sas
Sometimes sharp, but never too much wrath
Your problems were never too much, slowly it started adding it up
It's like you majored in College math
But you needed to grow, 
And you took it out
On those who didn't know
The ones that had no clue
What you were going through
A battle within yourself
A fight with just you
Tug a war became a game played by just us two
Between each team it was hard to choose
No matter the choice I would always lose
You became the electric while I became the chair
It's like I took a life right out of thin air
You said you'd always be there
You said you'd stay,
 the pain was something you could bare
But I'm left alone, it's not fair
I never intended for you to go away. 
In my heart you will always remain, 
But in my head is where I wish you would have stayed 
I miss the old me, 
Without you my heart is cold and grey
Everyone can see it, even nay
They see the fake laughs, 
They see the tears fall inside like rain
They see the look in my eyes of the pain 
I miss the old you, 
I'm not liking the brand knew
It's like I'm walking this road, but in someone else's shoes
This isn't what I am used to
Now I'm not anything 
I imagined being everything
This isnt how I imagined it would be
I just miss the old me

It's a poem about just my growth as a person, the different changes and phases u went through that felt like I was losing myself

[Geoff Hubbard]

very strong ending. i like how you related that it was not only him that you missed, it is also you and the way you were when you were with him. very relatable. i enjoyed it
