"No Longer"
2-25-03
I'm so sick of your munipulations
Too tired and fatigued to take this anymore
My life's turned black enough now
Added aggresion only leads to more pain
You say I'm hurting you and being selfish
That I no longer care of my actions
You may not know me that well then
You'd rather end this as a war
Cannot take this pain anymore
Stealing the energy I store
Want to give up and plunge deep
And take my final sleep
You've hurt me more than known
I choose to hide the pain I've not shown
Mistaken self esteem for selfishness
I've given up on everything now
Because if you want to ruin it
I no longer have te strength to match
I close my eyes in surrender
Knowing full well of what I may endure
My hear sinks and weeps
I still cannot make myself cry
I've been so strong for so long
This break from trying may kill me
I can no longer fight my life
Failure and misery are inevitable
I've never been as pure as now
I'll take whatever pain I can allow
See my eyes have closed
Too tired to lift anymore
Can't believe I've become weak
But all have their limit
I'll never regret a single moment
I'll never feel shame for what I've said
Fate has it's way of telling one
Have ignored it for far too long
Hopelessly lying on the floor as I write this
No longer hiding, but no longer trying
I'll take what is coming to me
I can only strongly say "never again"
