Twitchtip;; A free verse poem;;


You'll never see the beauty I know

These shifting colors will never be yours

And you used be until

There was nothing left for me to give

But you'll never know all

These things that I know

And you hate me for it

Don't you?

And I know I'm so much better off

Alone, without all of you

Screaming curses at me

So I've had enough

I don't need you anymore

None of you will ever see

Things the way I see them

I know all this so why do I crave

The sound of someone's voice?

The sight of caring eyes?

That familiar smell of a friend?

I'd rather die than go through

This again

All this senseless hate

I'm done, I'm tired of it all

So leave me be, stop screaming at me

In the darkest quietest part of the night

When no one is there

And I would give anything to be cursed at again

Just to hear something besides the shallow beat of my heart
