2004-11-07 22:18:10 ET Okay... so again... I'm here to post a poem. I've been writing alot and when I write a lot that means that I am finding that I cannot express my feelings any other way. Some people love to write... they write of beautiful moments in life... of falling in love... but when I write it's because I have come across an emotion or a feeling that I can't understand so I have to "see" it physically in order to deal with it in a healthy manner. Hahaha... and so yeah... this is a stressful time for me... enjoy... The Day After Tomorrow I took notice of the times I left you jaded and alone… under this façade of self-righteous behavior I knew the truth all along… the blame all my own… nothing can picture the regret better than the tears collecting in your eyes… the quivering of your skin… remembering the lipstick in the corners of your mouth like the lies in mine… the crease between my lips where they marched a thousand times… how long before I forgive myself… how long before this pained nostalgia will die… another minute lost baited by glory with nothing left to give to the flame… driven and ridden to the end… IN SEARCH OF A NAME… less likely to find me in a place of forgiveness rather than a house of shame… this self-destruction’s got me by the hand leading me on down this path to the embankment of sandbags reinforced to fight the storm… and I stand alone upon the shore awaiting the welcoming sight of waves to carry me away… toes in the surf and hair slicked by the wind… with a vision of angels beckoning me to come in… come in |
