Each time I think the thoughts I have
In retrospect things werent that bad
Hold it tight as if life would slip
Once its gone I hope it's not for good
I wanna be a circle never ending
Like it should, the way it's meant to be
I can't escape my mind, it hasn't set me free
All the memories that have to come inside
All the happiness, I felt so dam alive!
I hope it never changes, at least the way it was
I know that if it stayed that way
Life would just be fucked
But still I stay in prison rotting without a key
At least I had it once
But it was taken away from me
I don't know what it was that I did wrong
All I know is I made the mistake
By not trying to hold on
I once had a fairy tale embedded in my head
And now for good it left me
With just pain and hurt instead
It's bearable, but I would rather it be true
That from the very start
I was never meant for you
You let me through and let me fall
I spiraled down without a stall
And picked me up for that I love you
Keep me close forget the wrong moves
What was the past cannot be changed
If it could I would have played the game
The one without an object, just affection to be won
And once again i've reached the conclusion
I should have just held on
And now I know where once was hate is envy
My soul would float if only my body would let me
Never to return I let you go
When you should have never been set free
And now I sit to write a poem
When each second my chest collapses
And I know you've been the cause
But once you were the answer seeking my applause
I loved you more or so I thought it seemed
But turmoil blistered bursting us at the seems
Honesty is important, but coming clean is better
I would have listened, if you would just be heard
It's my fault just as well for not speaking my own words
But being young is torture and so is getting old
Don't let somebody tell you different or else you've just been sold

This is unreal
It left me awestruck
I can feel the passion and the hurt and also the sympathy throbbing in every word

"I should have just held on" -- climactically -- knocked me down the hardest
 
a great piece this one.. shows real talent.. self reflections good or bad are sometimes hard to put to words but you did well!
