Too weepy to sleep,
yet too tired to keep
going.

I'm alive on the outside,
but on the inside I have died
from this pain that keeps
growing.

Too uninspired to write,
yet too passionate to give up...

This pen and paper I write on
is all that I have left,
for the words that I have kept
in my heart
will never be ripped apart.

The author's comments:
When I was in this relationship, I was never happy, sure it started out great, but eventually a certain hate started to grow because he took a lot from me. After three months, I was a mess, a wreck, and in distress for any sign of happiness. When I started to write this poem, I found that even if I have lost so much in that relationship, I never lost the words in my heart, and that's something that can never be taken away from a writer. Never.
