All I Have Given

All I Have Given

Grains of sand that fall,
Creating a mound within the glass,
Golden yellow, growing from a stream from above;
The stream stops, and then my world is turned upside down,
It begins once more.

Blue within me, red out of me,
Flowing through tunnels red and blue,
They stretch for miles and can circle the globe;
Yet I am only metres tall,
Filled with the crimson essence of life.

Salty and flowing out of me,
From globes that allow me to see you,
The essence of sadness;
The symbol of my misery and solitude,
It is always dripping down my face when I think of you.

Words from my mind,
I tell you how I feel in different ways,
Love, hate, affectionate, irate;
And the many other words that spring to mind when I think of you,
My mind, my creativity.

All my dreams and who I am,
The moments I spend thinking about you,
My very heart and soul;
And all that is within it,
Is just another item on the list of what's yours.

All of this is yours,
Yet you just throw it away,
You don't care for me anymore,
Not when you have your arms wrapped around her,
This is all I have given;
Though I'm sure I have given more,
To the one who would rather just disregard it like some unidentifiable thing,
Left to rot in a corner of a dark room.
