I know it is there
Sleeping, i was unaware
slowly it fills me
never shall i be free
again, i can see the black,
i know for sure it is back
i will soon go numb
nothing i can do, but wait and twidle my thumb
never should i have allowed myself to hope
why bother? there is no reason to cope
i can feel my heart crying
crying, but knowing the tears will never come
again the cutting has started
again the poetry has begun
i feel no fear for the unknown
my heart sinks lower, i know what is to come
there is only one reason i would hold on
but it is not worth it, i fear it too will be gone
i know my time will soon come
too late, already, i have started to go numb
ans so i look at you and say
i'm sorry, i can no longer stay
already i am dieing
for you, my heart will always be crying
if ever you need me
in your mind, you can see me
and in your heart, you can feel me
i ask only this
remember my smile
remember my laughter
remember my caring touch
but please, i beg of you this
do not remember me, of that there is nothing to miss

thanks, feels weird to write poetry again after such a long time, but also feels good, always seems to be a good outlet
