No Courage, No Ability, No Bravery


To the sunsets of an argument,
As my heart and futures sigh
There is nothing like the hurt that glistens in my eye

All I asked was to be left alone
But now I am left with this,
The decision that faces me,
The lemon flowered dress.

God has never asked a lot from me
And neither has my mum
But how can I forgive, when the hurt is all but done?

The scars have formed and my life has changed
Not for better but for worse
They have torched the soul that I had become
Changed the life, that became the inspiration to some

I stare longingly at the mirror, arms outstretched into the air
A body full of hate glares back at me in despair
The smell of burning flesh fills the atmosphere
As Tears dry upon my face, hurt lingers near
I see no bravery in my eyes anymore
I’m not the person I used to be I have rotted to the core
Only sadness, fill’s my vile heart and I can’t expect anymore
My body’s lost and through the air may it forever soar.

I think you mean't to seperate the last stanza, also I liked it but the flow seemed off in cases, I don't know the rythmn seemed to break in bits.

Going over it again and taking out small words that you don't need should fix the flow bit

i didnt think the rhyming was off, but then again i can ussualy always find the rythm that the writer intended for it to have and to flow. you know what that means?......i read waaaay too much and need to get a life!thats what that means. you really are my fav poet of like all time(no offense to anyone else ur poetry is also very good and grabs me up to a diffrent world) its just that me and you kinda have the same writing style and that me and you write in the same genre, like the exact same! wierd how that happens when ive never even met you! i love having you post on here and if you want you can e-mail me at mental_with_issues@msn.com k?
