The Cracked Foundation

This is a feeling that has been haunting me for a while now.

I look up at the midnight sky

And I see no stars above

Cold from the rain shower

And no light left to comfort

Is this the fate I face

With my feelings ignored and beaten

Down into a shallow grave

Do I not deserve love

For we spend our life just searching

For the person we love the most

Why can't my heart find another

One that is warm with comfort

I understand you original feelings towards me

But now I stand here lost

Was I just a temptation you pushed away

Am I like an addictive drug

I'm more like a guy you call

When everyone else ignores you

When you feel shut out in the world

Am I you last resort

I yell here from this roof up high

For I am tired of the suffering

I want my soul to come to me

But it's been slowly shattered

This old run down house

It has been struck by lightning before

Yet it somehow is still standing

After all of the hail damage

I don't need you

I just need somebody

Someone who will accept me!

For who I truly am

I cannot win in these conditions

For you never truly gave me a chance

A story that was deceiving by the cover

Is now the only book I can read

I can't cry anymore rainstorms

It is too much for me

The lightning struck the house one last time

The house fell

it sucks to be a consolation prize, but you shouldn't take it either because you deserve more than that. if you haven't already said something to the person then you should...it's good to get these feelings out. it makes things a little better, doesn't it. because then you can see your situation in perspective.

This is one of the few that I can truly see your feelings. I can feel your vulnerability. I can taste the steel taste of your pain and how much it hurts. I can feel the confusion, it's powerful.
i love it.
