Because of this our roads must part

Poem Artwork

 
Don't you know you're breaking my heart
the way you see everything in black 
it is slowly tearing me apart 

Our personalities can never meet 
no matter how much I try it's never enough 
I'm walking on egg shells hurting my feet 

We're on different planets you and I 
I'm a problem solver, you're a problem finder 
we live under a different moon, a different sky 

Where you see nothing but clouds and rain 
I see the sun and the stars ablaze in the sky 
where you shroud yourself in hurt and pain 
I can see the beauty far from the wails and the cry 

The world to me is an awesome place 
where I go I see wonders and magic
to you it's a thorncovered maze 
desolate and infinately tragic 

Because of this our roads must part 
allthough it will be breaking  both our hearts

I have traveled the road of your liking and always found it to be friendly and open. But I have found others who seem to travel the road of discontent and are never happy or adventurous. There seems to be no changing them in their unhappiness. They thrive on. While I find it dismal and down dragging
