The Weight of the World

I'm meant to be alone,

I'm only good when needed,

I'm meant to be miserable,

Even though I pleaded,

Please don't leave me here,

Waiting to watch you fall for me,

When I know the day will never come,

Left with no one to love and nowhere to be,

I've opened my heart to you,

I've waited for it to come true,

But that's an empty dream,

And like all dreams,

They become dissolved and fade away,

In the gray matter of our minds,

And we can't seem to find,

Them anymore

So go on and look past me,

To another person you see,

That'll eventually break your heart,

But not me,

I'm here brokenhearted already,

The weight of the world is getting heavy,

Until I crack from the pressure,

And it was all over you...

Why do men who are not suppose to feel love or express it hurt the most when it is lost for them? Most of time they blame themselves for lost love here think ya moving toward seeing where the blame is... yet some self blame is here......

Awesome! I loved it. I feel exactly the same way (probbly for different reasons). Really, really good.

Poetry is what is lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
