And it's become too much for me
To the point where I can't even breathe

I wish I'd never known,
Never felt...
Never dreamt...

Mistake after mistake
Like little needles
Prick into my skin
And cause the little punctures to bleed

a pain that begins to feel just like home
&&I should have never existed.

...and now I'm
                       fading,
                                    
                                   fading,
                                                 
                                                fading

Like the raggedness of old pen on old paper
Like a distant memory of a lover whose name you can't remember
And you don't care to

I wish you wouldn't (remember me)

I'm a shadow
(a whisper)

....and I'm
                 fading,

                                    fading,
                                                   
                                                      fading
Until nothing's left of me
And no one will even wonder
What's become of me
[I'll d  i  s  a  p   p  e  a  r.]
And no one would dream to miss me.
I promised I would leave
And break no one's heart

I love poetry where the words themselves paint the picture. :aww:
