A Knoll to Die Past Love has grasped my hand too many times for me to count And its chilled fingers rub against mine so often trying to start a fire, I’ll have none of that for “goodbye” comes so quickly after “hello”, These wrap my mind around my heart and hang all for you. Even when I feel that I have found one for longer than another The man on the grassy knoll marks another notch on his gun, He’s killed so many of my good intentions and thoughts, Placed a bullet engraved with sorrow’s name: mine. Another undeserving night of lying about the truth, Another truth about the lies finds more of the hidden killer. Don’t you see that the parade in which you ride Is a trap for your end? Can I just throw off loves vice on me? And spare you the pain that so many others have felt. The marksman never misses, his finger never falters Our caravan never slows, never alters course. How many times have my best plans Turned out to be just what misfortune’s assassin was thinking? Even when I hold you close to my heart You are never safe from the silent destroyer. I wish for the casing’s present to be delivered to me And that my body will slump, keeping you truly safe, Never more shall I trust love to fulfill it’s part, Never more will I construe its touch to be good. I cannot help but be your de*th trap, I cannot help… now im alone, but not lonely like before |

You really grab what its like for love to leave you. I know all too well what thats like. Love is great while it lasts but when it leaves its horrible. Great poem If my poems could talk they would mean more than the words |

misfortune’s assassin I like that this revolves around love as a sort of battle field. Very creative. And so heartfelt. Excellent for being in teen. lol |
