Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

I throw rhyming words against the wall
Hear them break, watch them fall
Each one feeding my sense of rage
Bleeding down this pristine page
Tears are frozen in my eyes
Body numbed and desensitized
Stupidity branded on my forehead
Declarations believed now torn to shreds
Again, I remember that love’s a game
That someone can lose is a factual shame
Words spew forth from a darkened mind
There is no solace here for me to find
It can give comfort to write rhyming words
They seem cute, but their power can be heard
So take it from me when the game is lost
Just play to the end and absorb the cost.
Life is just a page filled with rhyming words
It’s a cynical joke in the comedy of the absurd.

yes, the power of hurt can be heard in this...extremely emotional, frenzied....ahhhh but, love is always there, regardless of someone's unkind words or actions, and it is that love that brings you to know, you'll be much better for the knowing if you heed the warning signs...people who love do not do unkind things...they are upfront, first and foremost, with concern for the hearts of others....

Keep writing, no matter what...
luv

The words I hated and threw
I still loved and cherished
Though angry I was excited
Casting the emotions
Removing for a moment
That which hurt
That which brought sadness
I watched them fall
As the silent tears fell
Again alone
Again lonely
I gathered my rhyme
Sat in the corner
And a lullaby came
My blanket of words
Were my comfort
My life

aziza, you sound sad dear friend, I hope you are well. We all go through these moments and somehow get through them all.
Great words and thoughts you shared.
Take care my friend.

Sincerely
Rick

*hugs zi tight tight*  
write it all out honey
and when you're all emptied out
I'll still be here
I love you

anger, hurt, pain
but not stupidity Alison...
I am sorry you are so unhappy
I treasure your laughter...
your funny words

Good write, aziza....but I think life has lots of non-rhymes, too.  Still, this was a good read and I felt your anger.....jo

Feeling this write, aziza, and this

"Just play to the end and absorb the cost."

How true of life in all respects.

Stupidity branded on my forehead...

sometimes that branding rises to the surface on me...but only temporarily.
