Drowing In Sorrow

You look my way,
But you do not see,
The pain and torment,
You bring to me.

I scream my sorrow,
To a stone deaf ear,
For my words are those,
Which you refuse to hear.

I could drown in the tears,
That stream down my face,
I am no longer myself,
I have fallen from grace.

Once I was strong,
But now I am weak,
Once I was prideful,
Now I am shameful and meek.

You did this to me,
You are the devil for sure,
You have tarnished a love,
That was forever and pure.

I fucking hate this poem,
So mushy and sad,
This is not who I am,
So now I am mad.

I like tale about dragons,
This bullshit is not me,
This is the very last love poem,
That my friends at Neo will see.

So goodbye to the sadness,
I have stories to tell,
Yes I still love you,
But go straight to hell!

Kudos! A true poet. What you have said is only for poem's sake, I think. Continue with this simple style of writing. Don't be depressed in real life. I praise your talent as a poet.
