This is really going to sound familiar since I made up a poet that consists of many quotes from some Evanescence songs all together. I hope you like it.

You Wash It All Away

I tried to kill the pain but only brought more.
More suffering, more misery, and now I pray for it to be gone.
My God, return to me salvation.
Don’t turn my soul to damnation.
My wounds cry for the grave.
My soul cries for deliverance.
Don’t deny me Christ.
Don’t kill me on this my attempted suicide.

I’ll believe all your lies, just pretend you love me.
From there I’d find reasons for truth and give anything for you.

Walking away to see the pain you put me through.
I see through you.
You make me broken and defeated.

Come and live with me between a field of paper flowers and the imaginary church with fallen angels at our feet.
Let’s watch candy clouds of lullaby in a sweet purple sky.

But don’t make me pretend that I don’t see what you hide so carelessly.
These things that are only in my mind.
They are not real life.
It’s not what it seems.
Not what you think.
I am only dreaming.
Dreaming that we all live and we all die.

I don’t want to say goodbye and see fear inside your eyes.
I dream of you when I close my eyes.
I dream you live deep inside, within my soul.

I lead you down into my core where I’ll become numb.
Call my name and save me from the dark.
Save me from the nothing I’ve become.
Breathe into me and make me real.
Wake me up inside.
Bring me to life.
Only you are the life among the dead.

I sold my soul just to hide the lies.
I run to you, calling your name.
I see you there, farther away.
I reach but I feel only air and night.
Don’t leave me here by myself.
I can’t breathe.

I still can’t find what keeps me here.
All this time I’ve been so hallow inside.
Though I know you’re still there.
Your heart is pounding in my head.

I want you to know I love the way you laugh.
I still have your photograph.
I know it serves me well.
The worse is over now and we can breathe again.
There’s so much left to learn and no one left to fight.
I don’t feel right when you are gone away.

Restless, I’ve been looking in the mirror for so long.
All the little pieces falling shatter.
To small to matter, but big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.
Lie to me convince, me that I’ve been sick forever.
And all of this will make sense when I get better.

If you had to leave, I wish that you would just leave.
Your presence still lingers here and it won’t leave me alone.
I know, you still have all of me.
I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone.
But though you’re still with me, I’ve been alone all along.
I’ve held your hand through all of these years.

You’ll never be strong enough.
You’ll never be good enough.
You never conceived in love.
You’ll never rise above.
Someone tell me what made me believe in you.
I knew all along it was all a lie.

But yet, I will stay forever here with you.
The softly spoken words you gave, even in death our love goes on.
And I can’t love you anymore than I do.

Take my hand, and we’ll leave tonight.
By the morning light we’ll be anywhere, where love is more than just your name.
I’ve dreamt so much, I cannot dream anymore.

I want to heal you.
I want to save you from the dark.
Give unto me your burden.
I’ll drink your deadly poison.
Some how it matters more to me to save you than if I was hurting myself.
Give unto me your trouble, I’ll end up all your suffering.

Oh God, I feel I’ve been lied to.
I walk to find myself in the shadows of all I’ve created.
I look into myself, but my own heart has been changed.
I’m longing to be lost in you.
Take me away from me.
Lost in a dying world I long for something more.
I’m lost in the in the shadows of my own.

But I can’t run anymore.
I give myself to you.
I fall before you.
I try to forget you are all that I am, take me home.
Without you I can’t go on.
Anymore, ever again.
In all my bitterness, I ignored what’s real and pure.
All I need is you.
I can’t lie anymore.
I fall down before you.
I’m sorry.
Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me.
But I know better you are what’s best for me.
