Seeing (Free verse) by Sirens_Voice
I've watched the pain
seen the hurt in their eyes.
Watched as their worlds
would crash to the ground.
Watched them cry at night
as I counted the tears that fell
and watched as their eyes became cold.
Love is what I've seen cause such pain
Seen it take a smile and make a frown.
Standing in the shadows
watching romances fade
thinking about how anyone would want to feel like such an empty grave.
Since I was five
I watched love kill souls
take them to the darkness that is unknown.
Seen others crumble as the truth came to dawn
that the ones they loved
didn't love them at all.
I'm still that little girl
who stood in the dark
watching with horror as love tore others apart.
I don't want to be like the others
don't want to go through that pain
don't want to sit in the dark
as my tears fill my grave.
I don't want any of it
but I know it will come
when love will kill me
and laugh at me as I fall.
