The darkness of the pit <br />is swallowing you in. <br />I see you looking at me <br />with that evil, twisted grin. <br /> <br />You know just what you're doing. <br />You've done it all before. <br />It kills me when you look at me <br />while bleeding on the floor. <br /> <br />I've offered you my hand <br />time and time again. <br />I've tried to help you change your life. <br />I've tried to be your friend. <br /> <br />I'll watch you from a distance <br />but I'll never get too near. <br />You'd love to take me with you <br />but my strength you've learned to fear. <br /> <br />If I could help you truly <br />just to see what you could be. <br />I'd try ten thousand times again <br />but I won't risk losing me.<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/losing-me/
