You were born to push me around
Shouldn’t I just stay down
I tried to hide within myself, yet you always found me
My eyes ‘n’ soul are now clear, but why can’t you let it be
I tried so hard to become the one you wanted me to,
but I failed
Why can’t you leave it, or leave me alone,
‘t is already too much I’ve inhaled
Too much I cannot carry around no more
‘T’s too much to ask
My spirit doesn’t want anything, anymore, it’s been kept in the dark,
held prisoner in the past
Why can’t I break free from this madness, a world driving me insane?
Why can’t I just go, just walk away?
Somewhere none knows my name
Why is it, that you killed me a long time ago,
but never did I get answer for
Why did you do it? Why not let me be now,
Next I'll be knockin' down your mental door

I really think this is your best poem so far, I really like it.. Sad, beautiful... it's just wonderful. But I really look forward to reading some new-written poems, when you get some inspiration :)
