Skin, Bone, Flesh & Blood
I realize now,
that I have achieved nothing that I set out to do.
A part of you dies when you realize that love is no longer true.
For I have felt love,
Even though it only lasted a while,
Its just such a loss,
when memories of us are the only moment I can smile.
Back then I never knew it,
But I was so contented,
Every barrier I had you went right through it,
And every good trait of me,
did not wait for me, to represent it.
Now I feel lonely within this cage of bone and skin,
I have tried every lie, every sin.
You have moved on I have not,
I still remember you,
But you have forgot.
I am skin, bone flesh and blood.
With empty spaces within, all alone,
skin, bone, flesh and blood,
will sin the stones that were left for our good.
I still grieve over you, and will to the end,
For our love was true, but broken hearts do not mend.
I became skin, bone, flesh and blood for loving you.

Thats what I meant.
see, i thought that was what you meant, but i could have thought anything. i wanted more clues.
also, this line is confusing to me:
And every good trait of me,
did not wait for me, to represent it.
a lot.
_forcing lines that are not correct grammar just to get the rhyme is not useful: as in "you have forgot"-"will sin the stone". Hope this is useful.
