Shouldn't Be

Contributed by MoonlitAngel on Thursday, 20th May 2004 @ 10:19:11 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Why do you say those words that kill me?
You know what you're doing and you keep on doing it
Why are you so bent on breaking me?
You just stand there watching as I cry, with vacant eyes
Why have you torn me apart all these times?
Why must you always do this to me?

You're supposed to be the one that makes me happy
It shouldn't be this way at all
You're not supposed to give me more reasons to cry
I shouldn't feel this way, but I do

How come you're so blind to what you've done?
You don't look inside, you just turn away and leave me
How come you'd rather slam the door shut
Than take a moment to act like you care about me?
Why am I still here in all these pieces?
Why do I let you take the best of me?

You're supposed to be the one I wanna be with
It shouldn't be this way at all
You're not supposed to make me run away from you
I shouldn't feel this way, but I do

You should stop
You should think
Don't expect me to
Believe that you love me
You should wait
You should listen
Pay some attention
What do I have to do?

I need you, I can't leave you, but I hate you now
Why are things this way?
I love you, I can't forget all the things you've said
And everything you've done

I lay here bent and broken and you've gone away
Why are you this way?
You've made me who I am but you hate my darkness
And you don't accept me

You're supposed to be the one that lifts me up
It's not supposed to feel this way
You're not supposed to be the one that makes me fall
It's not supposed to hurt this way

Why do you do this to me?
Over and over again
Why do you hurt me this way?
I can't take feeling this way
For one more day
I've gone away

Nothing is as it "should" be...it simply is as it is. Took me 40 years to learn that. I hope it doesn't take you that long.

Amazing and powerful and heartwrenchingly painful and I had a lump in my throat from the first line in. Perfect . . . and I hope someday, maybe, scars heal and breaks mend and smiles return. Will be thinking of you.

I figured I'd write you this way since I liked this series. Maybe do one off of the 'Letting Go' cd?
:)
I understand what you said Dee. I'm sorry. May peace come to all of us someday... hopefully outside of death.

I've sadly learned that what's "supposed to be" is often a figment. How hard it is to communicate with someone you love when a wall has grown between you. We each have our fortresses. What we want most is for someone to break ours down...what we fear most is that someone will break ours down.
I have been there. You've expressed your frustration well.

Ya know. Everytime i read, i wonder now if they are about me anymore or someone else. You seem to write things about fights or words said when there has been none between us....Hmmmm
