Lost

Just an empty shell now
Is this how you feel all the time?
All those feelings that used to make me up
They went away and I can't think straight
The tears are blurring everything
Your cruel words just bounce around
They make no sense to me, in my head
These mood swings of yours, I don't get it
You can't always blame me for what you've done
My only true friend, just a shade
But you did reveal my only true friend in this
All my love, you took and never gave
I was thinking I actually fell for you
What's left in me? What's left for me?
Just a shell, no happiness, no hell
My true friend, the only one helping
Me, trying to find my way
Savior complex, please don't let it be, don't try
Let's hang out when I've found my...
Insides? Feelings? World?
Must this be grief? The grief of a loss still alive?
Too confused to continue now
My new friend, I'm so grateful
Advice is my best friend these days

I thank you dearly. It really means the world to me when somebody likes something I wrote. I appreciate you taking the time to come read my work. I can't tell you how much it means to me
