Best Damages Poems

Back and Forth
Back and Forth
My cruel mind goes
Like the deadly pendulum
It swings some more
Entrapping those that come around
Back and Forth
Back and Forth
Like the tides of the frozen ocean
Anger
Love
Sadness
Hatred
Back and Forth
Back and Forth
Unable to stop
Continually altering my thoughts
Causing me to cause problems
When there should be none
When...

I’m so afraid of myself
Afraid of the anger that burns my soul
A vicious poison
Consuming what should be my soul
Corrupting the very breadth of life in me
A false sense of control was all I ever had
But yet…with you

Everything is clearer
You are my savior
My savior

The pendulum starts gaining speed again
I can’t sleep
I feel so guilty keeping you around
I shouldn’t
I should not do this to you
If I were truly your friend

woosh, woosh
The pendulum speeds
And speeds

There was no love between you
And I knew it all along

Promises were never kept,
Just a tool in...

Let you be
I don’t want to hurt you
I don’t want to

I don’t
I’m so sorry
I’m so scared
I’m scarred
I’m scared
I’m sorry
You’re always so great to me
Always
Always
I’m nothing but trouble to you
Nothing but impending pain and torture
Grief and Sorrow
Nothing good
Nothing good
I am so very sorry
I’m sorry that...

I drag it all out into the light.
Opening old wounds.
Trying to make sense of it all.
Trying to cope.

Leaving it burried.

You tell me to forget it,
As if you know how I feel.
You still refuse to see the...

Face to face
Mirrors cracking between the irony 
As the glasses fall
And my breath is lost
My eyes turn red 
And my feet 
can not seem to find the ground 
My hands fighting to hold on
My body has given up
But my soul remains intact 
I just don't...
