Try do to my part to keep this section alive...

This is something I wrote a while ago with the intention to be song lyrics. I dunno if it works or not.

Dust
I've fallen to the ground
And I can't pick myself up
Not this time.

Leave me to breathe in
The dust of my defeat
I don't want help.

I've lost the strength
No will to go on
Your lack of words
Have done more
Than actions could ever do.

Leave me to become dust.

I thought I was strong
I thought I could persevere
But I was so wrong.

I thought I could deal
With not knowing
But I failed myself.

I've lost the hope
That carried me for so long
Your actions
Have done more to kill hope
And they buried me

Leave me to become dust.

I've been crushed, bruised, broken
But not quite like this
My strength has been sucked out of me
And I fall
And I won't get up.

Not this time.

Leave me to become dust.

Wrote this last night.

I want to be the one with her right now
Holding her close as she sobs on my shoulder
I want to be the one kissing her forehead
And telling her everything will be OK
I want to be the one that takes her to Chicago Creek
And helps her hand bury her Lost Beloved
In the little pine box she made
And place it in the ground, my hands over hers
As Blackrock 2000 plays in the background.

I want to be the one who takes her to Glenwood
And honeymoon suite to help melt all her worries away
I want to be the one that crawls in bed with her
And whispers an "I love you" before a tender kiss
I want to be the one to make her laugh
Whose arm she smacks when I say something dumb
Who she bites, shoves, harangues, yet loves
And I want to love her back
I just want her.

Ya know, english is one of the languages that are hardest to make poems at? Pretty good poems you made, you really succeded at transferring your feelings to the reader.
