Poems From the Underground Volume 2

by Robert C. Waggoner


  From all of your

  Sick and selfish games!

  You are pathetic

  But for me,

  It's a new beginning!

   

  Scorned and filled with hate,

  You attempt to break me,

  But it's all too late

  The wounds you've opened

  Will soon be mending

  You've buried me with weight

  With a simple twist of fate,

  I've now opened my eyes!

  You should quit

  I ain't quitting!

   

  But from now on,

  When you push,

  I'm gonna push back

  I'm so tired of giving

  I am no longer the man

  You thought

  That you could stand

  I'm changing

  I know I'm winning!

   

  I can't take no more!

  What do you

  Do this for?!

  You are to be

  My enemy!

  You are the undead

  Seeking to feed

  On my head

  You cannot destroy

  The will in me!

   

  You've sickened me!

  You will leave me be!

  If you don't go willingly,

  You'll have a fight

  You can't handle

  With all your might!

  You're killing me,

  But I can't die!

  I could turn it all around!

  I promise you will cry!

   

  But from now on,

  When you push,

  I'm gonna push back

  I'm so tired of giving

  I am no longer the man

  You thought

  That you could stand

  I'm changing

  I know I'm winning!

   

  Get outta my life!

  Before you see

  What I've really become!

  No Name

  I guess you must've

  Felt unloved

  I wasn't around,

  And when I was,

  It wasn't enough

  Maybe I was

  Trying to be

  Something impossible

  For me

  Now that my eyes

  Have learned to see

  You finally

  Stopped loving me

  I can't bare

  To see you go

  That I'll never

  See you again

  Is killin me to know

  I wish I could say

  I love you every day

  But the thorn in my side

  Is that you took

  That right away

  I can't ask you

  For your help

  Over time,

  We've both

  Become someone else

  We have been

  Ignorant of our ways

  Eventually, the mind

  Wanders, and your heart

  Doesn't stay

  Maybe even

  Forgiving each other

  Isn't a possibility

  You feel the need to go

  You're doing it willingly

  Maybe you don't really

  Have it all

  If all you have is love

  Then it fades,

  And push comes to shove

  You get scared

  When your happiness

  Turns to tears

  You're left empty inside,

  Realizing your fears

  Stronger Now

  Maybe when

  You get outta my house

  I'll be ok

  You said you're leavin

  And nothin

  Will change your mind

  There's always new hope

  Each new day

  I don't want you to go

  But if that's what it takes

  For you to find

  What you're lookin for

  Then you don't need me

  You only need

  To walk out that door!

   

  Emotion is such a pain

  It drains you dry

  You feel you can't

  Live past it all

  And you always wonder why

  But then you do

  And you carry through

  Tryin to figure out how

  Rememberin the one who

  Left you alone

  And made you stronger now

   

  The love I have for you

  Can never really die

  It will exist

  Inside of me

  And time to time

  Make me cry

  You can't fully see

  That you mean

  The world to me

  I think it shows

  In your eyes

  You said yourself

  I don't matter as much

  As your new friends

  If I'd done everything right

  You would still deny!

  And...

  I can't change your mind!

   

  Emotion is such a pain

  It drains you dry

  You feel you can't

  Live past it all

  And you always wonder why

  But then you do

  And you carry through

  Tryin to figure out how

  Rememberin the one who

  Left you alone

  And made you stronger now

   

  I won't ask you to stay

  You want to go

  So go as soon as you can

  I'm in your way

  But probably some day

  You'll wish you never ran!

   

  Emotion is such a pain

  It drains you dry

  You feel you can't

  Live past it all

  And you always wonder why

  But then you do

  And you carry through

  Tryin to figure out how

  Rememberin the one who

  Left you alone

  And made you stronger now

   

  I will get stronger

  I've begged you

  To be with me

  You gave me your answer

  You're not gone

  But you've already

  Left me!
