    Poem Commentary

    True story. :O And the title is because I wrote this December 31st.

    This New Year Isn't The Cause Of My Evolution

    The new year rolls itself in.
    My mind keeps itself busy.

    I don't really know what I feel,
    or why it even bothers me.

    Still, you carved out your own grave,
    right before my eyes.

    Should I have tried to help, or care?
    You just wanted me to say it.

    The one thing anybody in your place would want.
    It happened so fast I was out of my wits.

    Silence should've sufficed. I wish it did.
    But you forced your shovel further in the ground,

    separating earth to find those words
    between the lines. They weren't there.

    I just couldn't bear to give you them. Not after
    you threw them away before, without a care.

    Time heals all wounds, but you just kept
    picking the scab. Now I wear a scar.

    This is so sad. It is always hard when you love someone that doesnt't love you enough to love themself. I get a a very subtle sense of guilt overburdened by anger towards the person you are speaking about, which is a feeling I am very familiar with. Great job
