I never asked,
I just assumed that you were me and I was you.
Common sence became too complex.
Down the drain in a swirling blue concoction it went.
To swim in someone elses head.
All I had was my heart.
All you had was my heart ground between your teeth.
Importance was always second best to a stolen kiss.
You took the breath straight out of my open chest.
Your touch was my amneisa.
There was nothing left between us but gray air.
Building into concrete walls.
Falling victim, witness to my clumsy heart.
Staring me down,
Begging for me to see the blood on your hands.
My words mean nothing to you.
You always used to silence me with your lips.
And now when I cry quietly at night.
I know your'e awake somewhere, reading my thoughts.
Thinking it's funny.

Isn't it sad how common this is. Love in any form should be looked at with a loving caring, gentle treasuring feel to it. Whether the other loves or not it should still be seen with a reverance, not *laughed at* and made a ridicule of. I felt this one. But I still wish you didn't have to feel this painful feeling that seems to linger around...like it or not. :'(

Oh my goodness! I don't know if this is speaking to me so strongly because of the timing and my life as of late. But, I felt this poem personally. I also loved the rhythm and the flow of this peice. Beautiful! Such a great expression of feeling!
