i peel the thin layers of love from my heart to survive this life its only a start as i slowly become numb i start to change i feel in ignorance happiness is sustained i ignore the memories and her cries for attention i sit all alone in my minds detention and think of my failures to keep her alive as the memories return i start to die i pretend to be someone im not for her the pitifull charade will fool her for sure but she sees my pain and runs to help as i embrace her i hate myself she deserves the world and everything in it and if i could i would give it to her in a minute but my greed and my love drown her in sorrow iv failed today and will again tomarrow i want her to know i love her so much i crave a kiss or a meaningfull touch ill give her my heart my soul and my body because cupids lethal arrow of love has shot me Today one of my friends is going through what i went through and that is what inspired this poem to all those out there lacking strength remember that it is easier to forget the person that keeping them alive in your heart....and if your hurt enough do what i do and date their sister
