Letting Me Down


My Blog Can Beat Up Your Blog

this time i have fallen
to my knees, kneeling
before you, tossed my heart
at your feet, i can’t breathe
how could you walk away
without one reason why
tell me how to find closure
if there’s no goodbye

everything feels hollow, wrong
my drinks keep getting stronger
trying to drown out everyone
hear them talking, fake a smile
wondering how long i can pretend
i’m not broken now, unnerving 
feeling unraveled, so let down

once you said harsh words
can be less hurtful, forgave 
with enough love, i disagreed
i’d give anything to tell you
was right about everything
