Looking Through You

It's not a lie when

I say I don't love you

but it can't be the truth

'Cause looking straight through you

has gotten so old by now

somehow

somehow

All the reasons that I left

don't make sense

wandering here just leads me back

to you

It's not hard to be alone

'cause that

is all I've ever known

Don't try to lure me back in

I still regret that first touch

So don't try to tell us 

that we're still in love

'cause we aren't

you are so cruel

It's not hard to be alone

'cause that 

is all I'll ever know

Tear me up

if you want

I'm in your hands; break me if you can

I won't be afraid

you won't hurt me

but this was all a lie

It's not hard to be alone

'cause that

is all I've ever known

NO THE PAIN THE PAIN GO AWAY IT KILLS ME AHH NO *is shot*

This is pretty and it saddens me and now my stomach hurts. xD

WHY IN ALL THE F***S OF F***S DO YOUR POEMS ALWAYS F*****G REMIND ME OF OPAQUE. I MEAN F*****G SERIOUSLY. 'Cause this one reminds me of her and Hurricane, too. o.o LOLWTFISWRONGWITHME.

But, anyfuckingwho, this is a beautiful poem, all the pain and such, and I just dgfkjhgkhgghkgfdhgdkfhgdkfg *dies* so yeah.

I love these lines right here:
"Don't try to lure me back in
I still regret that first touch
So don't try to tell us
that we're still in love"
for some f*****g reason.
and the repeating line:
"It's not hard to be alone
'cause that
is all I've ever known"
because it's painful and pretty.

so yeah.

xD

"don't try to tell us that we're still in love."
Wonderful. I love this poem. It speaks from the heart. Good job!

Sometimes we do things that don't make sense, but in time, you'll begin to see the part of yourself that made you do that.
"it's not hard to be alone
'cause that
is all I've ever known" - I can relate to this. I once wrote that I'm a great friend because that's all I ever am.
Over all I liked this poem. the only issue I had with it is this line "but this was all a lie" because it's extremely vague. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to reference the subject of the poem, or the lines that came before it. Either way, I felt that it weakens that verse, which is powerful enough without it.

Brilliant poem! *Envious*

Love this repeated line... good stuff. Really.
