And Yet More Meaningless Rambling

And Yet More Meaningless Rambling

A Poem by Teddybearlee
"

It's 4 am, just trying to vent I guess, same old s**t I always say.

"
I never want to love again
The pain too permanent
A grand canyon carved forever
In a heart that feels too much

With this ring I pledged my death
A warrant signed with soul
This feels like a pact with the devil
Now I am tortured for eternity

I gave all and withheld nothing
And fight every day as you swore you would
Now I'm as entangled as ever
Who's mind am I trying to save, mine or yours?

After years I allowed the comfort of forever
To kill all the demons haunting me
Not realizing yours were still hidden
In the corners where you denied hearing voices

I chose to believe you instead of doubt
"I love you and only you forever"
As you look in to my eyes so sincere
Every day, our ritual with a kiss

Gone you are as if you were a myth
Yet pictures and letters proof you existed
As the angel I exclaimed to others I knew
But no one understands the part of me you keep

I can relate to en extent. Had a girlfriend and a kid together. Split up. Was hard to understand anything. Had so many questions. Hard to pick up the pieces again. "After years I allowed the comfort of forever To kill all the demons haunting me" Such a powerful statement. Thanks for sharing this!
