Reason

Reason by outcast-angel

Why don't you see

that i'm not holding on for me

that you're my only reason, you're my sanity.

why can't you see

the pain that tortures

the pain that sears my mind

that breaks my heart

millions of pieces every day

but i lost them all to you

you're my only reason

you're my last anchor

you stop me from cutting too deep

from cutting too close

i'm torn and that's nothing new

but before i had you

now i'm hanging by a thread

shards of pain in my brain

like knife wounds in my gut

my cut's getting deeper

alone and cutting closer

my pulse getting weaker

louder till i can't hear you

eyes close till i can't see you

memory fades till i don't know you

why didn't anyone see

that i wasn't holding on for me

that when i lost my reason

i lost my sanity

hey, thanks laura! i'm glad you liked it.. i'll keep working on stuff so i can post more for you, and anyone else who likes it.. although, i'm not sure that it's all talent. probably at least 50% raw emotion. it's always easy to write about something if you feel keenly on the subject.

Raw emotion is what fuels as to be at our best. It takes our talents and jacks it up a notch. Outcast, you do have talent. Felt like the poem was describing my feelings. Definitely post more.
