Image for the poem force

force

stealing the breath from me I exhale my sadness
you left me breathless and empty inside my loneliness
my heart was breaking and you seem unfazed

hurting in the grief of the moment
it made no sense you felt nothing
a heart of stone showing no remorse for the words you were uttering

my mind didn't understand where you went
I mean this is a game people play
one I've never been good at
because the spectrum of feelings I have I can't hide
the others either feel nothing or they are cold

my anger rises when I'm slighted
and I get 5150 and people seem to love it
I don't think they get it the great amount of dark
I'm holding back
I keep it pent in
but now the dark has a new fascination

creatively thinking of the worst way to hurt you
it does not consult me
my way is to let it go
but the brutal spirits never let anything slide

it is their mission to put you in your place
so many times now I've heard of peoples fortune
I always feel guilty cos I know it happened on my behalf

stirring the emotions the spirits rise
and tell me I'm too soft they are equalizers
watching my back is their job

they take it seriously it's their honor on the line
they aren't impressed by money or prestige
in the netherworld baby don't think to fit you're from our world
