Every Tear

A poem about love falling apart because of a traumatic history

The future slightly scares me
My past is coming back
Things are trying to get to me
That knocked me once off track
Feelings I'm remembering
The hurt and pain they brought
The loves and friends i quickly lost
Whom for many years I fought
But you are not quite like them
I want you to always be here
And though there were some good times
I want my past to disappear
I only want to keep you
Throw away my doubts and fears
Forget the people that screwed me over
That I've not known for years
Forget the words and bruises
And remember you'll keep them away
Or just get rid of the feeling
How I'm wanting to run away
Every footstep that I hear I think
Is one of yours out of my heart
Every tear I start to cry is one
Tear closer to my falling apart
