-Today I walked into our building...
-I saw you... and you...
-And the same boy,
-Talking to the walls that he called friends.
-I looked into your eyes,
-And your eyes...
-And your soul...
-I didn't feel you burn my brain...
-But I bet you felt me...
-Today I realized that there is hope in this world...
-Not you... you... or you.
-I only see a sane reflection,
-And your not standing by me.
-I've learned to ignore you,
-Because you bore me --- into a category...
-One that I find pathetic...
-Just like you?
-Today was just like every other day...
-Except today was one day closer...
-To the day that I never have to see you again.

I screwed up on the poem though... the phrase "You bore me into a category" does not make enough sense... for my standards.
