I Don't Need You

Contributed by The_Unknown on Sunday, 5th July 2009 @ 10:44:54 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Hush now
Don't you dare say a word
I don't want to hear what you have to say
I don't want to listen
I don't care
I am trying not to care
My reason is simple

The effortless silence that you give
Likes to place it's cold hand across my heart
So let me build you an ice cold wall
I want you to know how this feels
A silence so raw it tears at your seams

These ideas may confuse you
They might appear radical or childish
But I don't care about that
I want to not care so much about you
Because there is so much pain
That comes with how much I want you

Be quiet
Don't talk
I want to shut you out

Perhaps I am causing my own wreck here
Though I think this is what I need
Let me crash and burn without your hand
Reaching to catch me
Allow me to jump from the cliffs of my sanity
Let my bones break on impact
Don't call an ambulance
I don't need no hospital
And I don't need you

I want to convince myself
That I don't need you
That I don't want you so bad
I am trying to not need you so much
But this is chillingly hard

The longer that we're apart
And the longer we don't talk
The more I miss you
The more I want you
The more I can't stand it

I love this poem! It is so emotionally powerful. It reminds me of the saying, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder". I will have to check out more of your writing.
