Abandoned--Part Two
You allowed her to abandon what has all become this shattered group
Nothing but a repeating, battered loop
Of anger and torment
And she still follows you and would to the end of the earth without thought of me or him
We are nothing in your twisted version of the world, everything you do based on a whim
Except when it comes to her, she is your everything
And you are her everything
And we, me and him, are the nothings
The nothings that inhabit the space and air around
Worthless, more so than the ground
That you stomp on; and hidden deep inside
Where all the monsters and demons reside,
And I DAMN you for dragging her down with you
To the depths of nothing, where you run and hide, because it’s all you ever do
And I DAMN you, because you take her from me
And it shows just home much, I really mean nothing…to you or to her…but I’ll never be free
I will never escape this bottomless hole of hopeless sorrow
I have placed myself in, because I will always want you and her, today, yesterday, and tomorrow
It will not matter
I will not, and he will not
We will never matter, we will only be forgot
She follows you, and I watch, my heart ripping from my chest
I cannot take anymore, this abandonment bringing me, to my final rest.
