my own little world

0 posted 2004-07-22 06:43 PM



I am at more than a loss for words
motionless
thoughtless
as you scratch your pain on my mind
hypnotized by smoking yellow roses
shadows...traces of you are left behind
falling out of this imaginary world
I just want to be near somebody
anybody
to cry on and take away my hurt

the hurt you left behind
traces
thoughts
fragments
shattered in my mind
the hurt you left behind

ebony symphonies...gracefull trance
morbid colliding mosaic
shifting
drifting
why did I ever give you a chance
Inside I am outside of myself
drifting
lifting
cursedly blessed haunting dance

did I ever deserve the pain
did I ever deserve such shame

beating my head over and over again
I just want answers
I just want to know why
how come you became never again
seems like you just didn't even try

the hurt you left behind
faces
taunts
anger management
shattered in my mind
THE HURT YOU LEFT BEHIND.


*** ok, not my best work either...but you know, some venting helps

This deserves a reply.  It's filled with raw emotion and this is good.  Wicked stuff.

Wow.

amazing.

Only thing that broke the whole aura of the poem or the flow, was the sue of capitals at the end.

But apart from that, nice!

The pain of a betraying heart is verily felt in this poem.  All though you have the ability to do better, techincally, nothing can beat raw emotion.  So, in spite of its seemingly forced ideals, it was beautiful in the aspect of its realism.
