Black Hole Poem by Patrick Shields

I haven't felt this way in a long time
Not for two years
And things are far from fine
I'd hoped these feelings had dissapeared

When you first left me
It blackened my sole
Destroyed the insides of my body
And created this black hole

It never really healed
Still letting more demons get in
I no longer have my shield
And I never will again

Stories the same as before
You say I've changed to much
But I don't even know you anymore
The last thing I want to feel is your touch

Now I'm a shadow of my former self
Thanks to your careless actions
All I wanted was your love and help
I'm an emotionally disturbed man

I don't sleep anymore cause the dreams
Dreams of all the good times and dates
You'll probobly be the death of me
But all that I have in my heart for you is contempt and hate
