Old habits are hard to break
But your memory I just can't shake
And every word that leaves your lips
In my mind is twisted into a dark eclipse
But I can't fight though I know it's wrong
And in your dreams I don't belong
But you're cutting me with shards of glass
Glass which remains from broken hearts
I know I hurt you, and I wonder why
Every time I'm near you I'm bitter and shy
I know that it hurts you to listen to me
Recycled conversations absent of mystery
I'm just a reflection of who I was
Trying to please you whatever the cost
I'm sorry that I made a rhyme for you
But rhythm and rhyme is my pulse through and through
And if only you knew only pain can I rhyme
Not love, happiness, and magic sunshine
It's hard to imagine you can hurt me like this
Because all of my memories of you shine with happiness
just a poem

its incredible to see reactions when people learn of the fact that on the same token when there is one we love and are filled with love and joy, there is also another side that allows them to cut straight through us, where words are sharper than any blade could ever be..

i do enjoy your writing, you are very good at allowing a reader to visualize things, which is a talent in and of itsself! consider yourself watched =p
