Mental Pendulum

Move along,
Come back to me,
You're in every song,
I have to leave you be.
Back and forth I go,
Leave me alone,
How I love you so,
I miss your moan.
Stay the hell away,
I need to feel peace,
Without you I'm grey,
Come back please.
Driving myself crazy,
This pendulum,
Everything is hazy,
Everything is numb.
I give, I gave,
You took, you take,
I love, I crave,
You leave, I quake.
Life goes on,
I feel stuck,
Now "we" are gone,
I'm in the muck. 
F***.

Well done! The swinging pendulum felt in its back and forth contrasting emotions, then the feeling as if time as finally stopped with one final curse.
