The Price Poem by Alejandro Velez

And my heart grows cold
my mind becomes unstable
the truth learns to fall
the lie masters the flight
your thoughts match mine
your heart meets mine
your eyes catch mine
still you from me hide.
All my regrets carve my soul
they dig out my skull
make me shake on this dying bed
make me want to be more
more to you than to me
not to die but to live.

And im blank
and im doubting me
im feeling lost
and all that at what cost?
and i dont find interest where i found joy
i dont seem to find myself
but i seem to be troubled by me and only me.
Why cant you let me be?
Why cant you see?
That this is the price to take for you!
That this is the price i took for you...
