Where Is The Joy? Poem by Autumn VanBrown

The things that taint your mind.
Horrible memories you may find.

Though you should not care.
For the enemy is always there.

So leave me to my broken heart.
My mind splits far apart.

I do not wish to see your pain.
Leave me to my feelings I may tame.

Go somewhere let me go.
For in the end you are nothing but a show.

I use to love the things of you.
Now you are someone I once knew.

Let my heart grow out of touch.
For my life is long and you are far too much.

Leave me to my destiny.
That does not involve money or a pretty penny.

Let that crushed little girl cry.
For her feelings are closed and are far from a pry.

Let the rain kiss my skin.
Let my light and soul search begin.

You have let me down many times before.
GET OUT OF MY MIND AND SHOW YOUR FACE NO MORE.

Free me from your heart's beat.
Now you are nothing but an empty seat.

My life a carnival, you the ticket holder.
*laughs* Who would have thought your heart could be colder.

So Now I leave you with this little note.
You are dead to me and that is all she wrote.
