Tear my heart out, rip apart my soul.
                                                                   That's what I've done to myself.

Break me to pieces because I'm so weak.
                                                                   That's what I am: Weak.

Let someone love me, build a world around them.
                                                                   That's what I always do.

Cry my eyes out for a love gone awry.
                                                                   That's my every night.

Engulfed by nightmares in waking and in dreams.
                                                                   That's what life has become for me.

Wish for a better tomorrow, but never do shit.
                                                                   That's what I've done: given up.

Pray for death but never do the deed.
                                                                   That's what I've come to.

Long for days that were good, and are now gone.
                                                                   That's what I spend my days doing.

Alone and bleeding inside and out,
Because I can't learn the lessons of a broken heart
No matter how many times I break.

                                                                   That's what I am.
                                                                   That's what is left of me.
just trying to explain how i feel in a way that others can connect. I hate how these feelings can be so universal, but that's one thing I cannot change.

poet/author/mentor J T Stewart shared, "Writing is easy: star with a blank page . . . and open a vein. never fear to bare your soul."
