You turn a deeper shade of blue

each time I look at you.

You're a loser, a loner,

And I thought I had no place to go.

You don't have a home,

You lost that a long time ago.

I love you and you know it,

but you can't accept it it seems,

I promised to take good care of you,

You heard me say it,

but you ripped everyone away.


Where did you go?


Daddy's gone to work,

Mama's far away.

What you do now it up to you,

But you know I'm not always here for you.

I try to spend more time with you,

but in some way you'll push me away.

I'm already a wreck,

the last thing I need is an attached dog

tied to my ankle.


Where did you go?


Don't know what it is that's keeps me close to you,

we don't have much in common.

I suppose they do say opposites attract,

and I'll keep going.

Once you fall back in love with her,

will we even speak?

Or have I really done it?


Where did you go?


I apologized for my mistake,

I still do.

But I'm expecting one soon from you,

for acting the way you do.

I'm no Edgar Allen Poe,

but I know horror,

and I see it in your eyes.


Where did you go?


I'll set you aside for now,

You've become the ghost of this house.

You're body is there,

but you're long lost.

You're no longer a person,

but like you're under a spell,

you've become a shell.


Where did you go?


I could spend hours staring at your lifeless face,

you don't blink.

Can you even feel anymore?

I thought I had it bad,

but the way you walk and talk,

I'd rather be in a box that's locked.

I'd even swallow the key.


Where did you go?


I feel my heart shrinking,

but my mind keeps growing.

I can't feel that much but I know right from wrong,

I'll start a revolution and it won't bust.

One day you'll be gone and maybe I'll smile again,

but that's until then.

Awesome, thanks!

If you tried to submit to the folder before and it didn't work, I'm sorry, I forgot to change the permission settings; try it now, it should work.
