Come With One
Suffering, guilt, pain and shame
Suffer the loss and suffer some more
Come with one who’s felt the pain
And one who’s seen this all before
Misery sorrow pain and loss
Now I know how to shift the blame
Watch me sink beneath it all
And pretend I never even came
Love honor pleasure and truth
Will always speak but not to you
So harness all you’ve been put through
And do to others as was done to you
Dreams pleasure and paradise
Will lie before your very face
In these hopes do not confide
With all of these things do away
Vindictive hateful bitter and cold
Bare these traits with no regrets
Be eaten up and chewed into holes
And reside in the tunnels of my chest.

I really like this poem! It's a poem that sounds good to read when you are very sad, to find something that relates.
It's written very well, reminds me of poem masters. :)
Reminds me(because of the relationship and cynical part) Casablanca,because the guy can never have the girl that he loves, due to circumstances that I reveal will kill the story. Plus, the guy is super-cynical. It's a fabulous movie. It's actually one of my faves. Very old, from the 1950's. I think you might like it. :)
I relate because I've done it. I'm who doesn't just want to be a St. Jimmy and give the world the finger every now and then?
