Giving it all away ( all the time)

I'm
giving pain away
I'm
sending you messages that beg you to stay
and still I watch you walk away
still I go home alone again today
And you're in my mind
When I reach the door
You're in my mind when I hit the floor
You're in my mind when I can't take it anymore
You're in my mind
And you're here all the time

You promised everything you said was true
every " forever" and every " I love you"
You just keep saying things
that you cannot do
You complicated
everything I knew
You infiltrated
Maticulated
Annihilated
and dare concentrated
on what I was feeling
when I crashed from the ceiling
you didn't care, no you never do

And you're in my mind
when I'm spinning 'round
And you're in my mind when I start hearing sounds
And you're in my mind as I fall to the ground
Feeling more lost than I've ever been found
And you're in my mind when I feel this kind of down
and your the last thing in my mind as I sink and I drown
You're even here in my mind when I'm headed hell bound
You're in my mind
You're in my mind
And you're always here
all the time

    I really like the intensity, insistence and relentlessness of this. Something like awaterfall of words splashing with pain over everything in sight.

    Couple of words Im looking askance at, not sure - is "infertrated" supposed to be 'infiltrated'? "maticulated" - 'matriculated'?
    and maybe 'dared to concentrate' instead of "dare concentrated"

    Minor points, just cosmetioc issues, you have a strong poem here. Cheers, MJ

    I hear a song coming on!

    These would make great lyrics, I think. I absolutely loved how, in the second verse, you had those short lines with stabbing words. It really added to the tone. I also noticed how you seperated "I'm" from the rest of the line in at the start. At first I was thinkin' it was a typo, but if not...it actually works. It sticks out, but in a good way. Like there is some hope despite the fact that your relationship is through. (or maybe I'm WAY overthinking it...I tend to do that)

    teehee, I like math, kinda. But boring classes make the best time for writing!

    Good job,
    Ashley
