The Truth Poem by Diego Adrian Manriquez

I think we would have been better off as friends,
Instead of me always looking for and end,
That doesn’t burn, bleed, or turn one of my dreams,
Into a nightmare where all I do is scream,
I feel that we should’ve worked it out,
But now its easy to tell me now,
I feel so weak,
I fell for you on my knees,
I cry for a second chance,
If this was the ending I wish I’d know in advance,
Its not so easy to look you in the eyes,
When I used to see the sunrise,
Now I see black,
All I can do is hide and try not to move,
Move through this,
I try to forget,
Even though everything I do,
I constantly I’m thinking of you,
Help me forget,
I wish I could tell myself you’re nothing,
But you’re my everything,
You are the reason I breathe,
The reason I try to make something out of myself,
You’re the reason why I write,
You were the reason that would brighten my day,
With a flash of your smile,
And a look in your eyes,
I would feel as if I was sky high,
But I’m drowning,
On the words I never said to you,
I screaming at myself to see what was true,
You look at me now and say “he is nothing without me”,
I am the reason why he belives that one day everything will be okay,
I make him think he revovles around me,
I lead him to his death,
You see what you’ve done driven a man to do,
All he left behind was a pen and some paper,
And its for her to write.
