because everything i touch turns to dust
in the firm grip of my hand
i hold you tightly and then
look away as you fall to pieces

because everything i see is black
i look at you and no light
reveals itself to me
through the shadows of my doubt

because everything i do is imperfection
i miss the point of our conversation
losing hope that tomorrow
might be better than today has been

because everything i do affects others
i hide within myself waiting
for you to turn and walk away
somewhere there is safety from my curse

Share the hugs, not the hate.
Love the art and artists, before yourself

I wonder whats in store.
Are we lovers living in the moment...
Or in love forever more." - Zachary Kramer, my bf

This is a superb poem. The repetition of the stanza format is just great.

And you're wrong.

Tomorrow will be better.

I love you.

I like it,but...it seems like it should continue. like it was just cut off in the middle. I don;t know if that's what you wanted it to do, but yeah.
