Lyssa's Poem Book

Virtual Misery

You keep saying you'll never leave me but you do it over and over

I'm scared you'll go forever as time passes and we get older

I can't think of a moment when I longed to be without you

You may not accept that I love you but after all it remains true

Please don't make me worry like this

Whenever you're gone I hope you're in bliss

But that's so unrealistic

And it's hard to be optimistic

Because I know your life is dangerous

And I wish it wouldn't stay like this

You tell me you'll be okay but you never really mean it

So I obsessively pray

Until I can no longer feel shit

I'm trying not to cry

But it's simply no surprise

I know you told a lie

But I won't ever cut the ties
