Poem
So sweetly apathetic You lie asleep While I'm still crying in the next room You haven't seen me in days But I'm still here I'll never leave, love You wake so suddenly It touches you again The cold where I used to be Someplace deep inside A place we used to call home But we burned it down And it's out of our hands, love Bitter words and angry hands Crushes the hearts still gasping for love But you still haven't seen me Weeks now, it's been I'd give anything to take it away I'm so sorry, love All I am, all I used to be It can be yours If you'd just let me die for you I'm aching, you're my only purpose My last proposal, my final sacrifice Please, forgive me, love I've been gone for so long While you were only in the next room But here I am, now, my precious All that I am, all I'll ever be Is yours Just say I'm the one The last you'll need, you'll want The final chapter, the last step Please, just tell me how much you love me I'd fall to my knees and beg you to take me If I thought you'd see me I'd give anything and take everything I'm your martyr, love Give myself to the fire If I thought it'd keep you warm Please, see me Please, discover I'm the only one A desperate nothing without you An empty shell without my heart And it still hangs around your neck, my love Apathetic empathy So bitter-sweet to my ears To hear you say you love me No louder than an inaudible whisper My screaming falls out into limbo Wear the ring, take my soul It's all to make you smile Your happiness would be too much to ask I'd settle for a glance Just a notion, my one I'm growing weak, I'm burning slowly A million miles away, still you bring me closer to yesterday I adore you I haunt you I'm the breath on your neck As you try to fall asleep You're my obsession My only passion My heaven and perdition Oh, my love If you could only see If you would only hear How I long for you to love me If I had only known If I could have only seen My God! If only I could take it back I wouldn't be here Existing merely as the ghost of your memories Trapped in pages Never to reach the climax Hear the end, find the revelation You're my purgatory I'd sell my soul If I could only get it back from you Just say yes Say I'm real Just turn a little more Please, see me Please, see me!
