What Was Lost
I thought that I had it all.
In the end I couldn't stand tall.
I felt the warm rays.
As normal as the passing days.
Acting like I don't care.
About my hurt and despair.
Time's hand takes life away.
I feel it all begin to decay.
It crumbles and disintegrates.
There are no debates.
I can't even try to flee.
From the poison inside of me.
It leeches at my soul.
It's taking it's toll.
I feel so much pain.
All over again.
I've paid a high cost.
Unable recover what was lost.
In the end I couldn't stand tall.
I felt the warm rays.
As normal as the passing days.
Acting like I don't care.
About my hurt and despair.
Time's hand takes life away.
I feel it all begin to decay.
It crumbles and disintegrates.
There are no debates.
I can't even try to flee.
From the poison inside of me.
It leeches at my soul.
It's taking it's toll.
I feel so much pain.
All over again.
I've paid a high cost.
Unable recover what was lost.

Author's Note
This poem is a bit vague so, I feel like this can be taken in multiple ways. I put a lot of extra effort into this to make the feelings stand out. I hope it worked.

You are a strong person. You aren't alone remember that. Everyone is confused more now after what happened. Keep on writing.

That's true, even though it's difficult to admit sometimes.
