I'm Stuck
i'm stuck inside a hole i cannot climb out of
 for i will never be her and she will never be i
 and since forgetting you is a horribly depressing option
 i sit in my hole and think, and think, and think.
 free me from my thoughts, i wish you could
 you've placed them in my mind, you know
 left nowhere else to go but infinate circles
 in my mind in this hole of which i'm trapped
 
 the bottom is slipping, i've haven't got anywhere to go but down
 further into my despised yet familiar hole
 making the slight hope of escaping diminish even more quickly.
 my thoughts travel downward as i fall
 crashing onto my restless head
 sleep doesn't come for minutes upon hours
 but i mind not because my dreams are just as solemn as being awake
 
 the image of you fills my every thought, idea, dream
 your voice continuously reiterating in all three
 as if you yourself were a scratched CD
 and i have no toothpaste to wash my mind clean of the scratch.
 and in my horrible sweet thoughts of you
 i sometimes gain a smile or laugh
 for you are beautiful, even in my mind in this hole
 and your image brightens the darkness consuming me
 
 the hole is growing longer and slightly more tight
 i can no longer move around on my own free will
 but the closeness of the walls is like the closeness of your love
 and its comforting in its ironic and unlikely way.
 i embrace that walls as if they were you
 although you're everywhere here but nowhere to be found
 inside this hole of which my mind and self is trapped
 
 i think i've finally reached the bottom of my hole and i look up to see
 that at the very distant top you look down upon me
 and i find amusement in how confused you must be by my hole
 and how impossibly stuck i am in it,
 for you could reach down and touch me yet touching you i can't.
 i'll sit and watch you in my hole, confused in a blind glorious love
 and pray for you to come in and join me,
 or at least stay and wander up above
