It's Almost Done Poem by Michael Farquer

I feel a change coming
Not one that im wanting
But one that just has to happen
Im tired of being
Left out of the light
In the dark all the time
Left to wonder
While your doing your thing
If you cared you would talk to me
For more than 3 minutes at a time
Im stuck here
In this place
And you had a lot to do with that exile
At least you could
Reach out once in a while
Im haunted here
Im tired of this isolation
Were going nowhere
And you don’t seem to notice
Or maybe you just don’t care
You don’t even notice
That im sinking
From myself and from us
You wont let me touch you
And you wont let me go
I don’t know what to do
And this is driving me crazy
I live in constant pain
And emotional torment
This you should at least understand
But if its not you its not relevant
And that is the biggest
Slap in the face of all
So the planets
Are going their way
This one goes west
Yours wobbles aimlessly
Alone and getting nowhere
It breaks my heart
Because I love you so much
And I feel like
All this has been for nothing
All the things lost and all the people gone
When all I ever wanted
Was just to love you
And to be loved back.

You will never rule another
Like I let you rule me
When I take my leave of you
You will feel the cold wind…
And the emptiness.
