You made me into what I am.
Carved my personality,
Your rigid soul,
Cutting my outline.
Sharpening my shape;
Rinsing off the dirt.
Finally finished,
Let off into the world.
No looking back.
For it would be far too painful.
Remembering how you cared.
Modeling me ever so careful,
Going back.
It wouldn’t be the same now.
I’m just what you want.
There’s nothing for you to work with.
No fat to trim.
I become one of your forget-me-nots.
A leaf in the breeze;
Rolling across open land;
Being perfect.
Leaves no anger to bond off of,
Only good times to come.
Things are too easy.
We can’t have that can we?
Nah.
Move on down the line.
Re-starting the old times.
Where it’s all falling into place,
Only to be smashed.
All the pieces are perfect.
Fitting flawlessly.
My fingers tremble.
As I have the last remaining corner.
Misshapen.

a late night snack....

your flow of words,
and emotion...

tasted good!

now i am full and i can go back to sleep...

You know you're in love, when you can't fall asleep,because reality is finally better than your dream~Dr.Seuss

~ Preston, the entire poem is quotable!!! However, the lines above really grabbed me!

They say "we can never go back" ~ and oft' times that is so true ~ and that can also be a good thing!

Onward and upward, dear brave of heart!

Your muse is in fine form, I see!
