Torn Apart

What happened what went wrong?
I wish it could be like it says in that song. 
But this is life and it is real,
This is true heartache that I have began to feel. 
Why can't I open my eyes and finally see, 
That my life problems lie within me?
I am hopeless and in feel despair, 
Because nothing in life is ever fair. 
I have failed in everything I do,
And without exception I failed when it came to you.
I'll never be anything and never get it right,
Darkness is what calls me, it is not the light.
Don't worry cause I'm not afraid to go,
Whatever happens I just need you to know.
I will forever love you with all my heart, 
And I'm sorry Rebecca that I tore us and any future apart.

Darkness is great and all, but you'll need a flashlight to navigate through the shadowed plains of cynicism. Potent writing and style though, Kevin. Hopefully this isn't your present reality ^^
