Interstellar Glass

Some depressing s**t.

Your presence is poison,
Your meltdown, inevitable
Your ego, to make sure
Of your souls' much missed potential
You talk about pressure
Pain you cause me, misdemeanor
Think of only yourself
The center of the universe
And what am I to you,
But a little f*****g comet?

Nothing I do will ever be okay enough
Nothing I say will you ever appreciate
Only asking of a little approval
Throw your words at me, but actions show it all
I have asked you every day for a sign
I guess I only hope that's what I'll find
Scream at me all that you want and more
Call me an a*****e, annoying, w***e...
Tomorrow, this never happened
No memory for you to mend
Tell yourself it's all my fault
Lock your fears within your vault
I wish that you could feel
The tears, the scars, the fear
Instead, I will go
I'll punch walls and stone
And don't you doubt
Your own resound
I won't run
I am done
Freedom
Not free
Break
Me

This may be two years late, but I found this and would like to say wow. This is very powerful and sad. Personally, I can relate to this and that is what makes me like this poem so much. I don't know if you wrote this from experience or not, but either way, I feel a lot of emotion from it. Poetry normally isn't my thing, but this is stunning. It is very well written and the words and techniques you use can really draw a reader in.
