Used To Poem by Carrie Sprouse

the faces i used to see
have slowly faded away
the voices i used to hear
have silenced themselves completely

the anger i used to feel
i've released from time to time
the sadness i used to feel
i've tried to push away

the things i used to hold tight
have drifted from my grasp
the things i used to believe in
have dismembered my trust

the memories i once held onto
are slipping faster than air
the shadows i used to see
hide in the darkest corners

the fears i used to have
have faded day after day
the tears that used to fall
i try so hard to hold in

the loneliness that shadows me
has not yet runaway
the people i used to call mine
have left me in the dark

so quiet
so painful...
so cold
