Incarcerated in my bedroom, I'm staring at the ceiling-- Wishing you were dying And paying for what I'm feeling. The wind rustles at my window, It blows away a tear. Things might be getting better If I'd put away my fear. A box of matches sits beside me. I hate your stupid game... If your heart were made of paper, I would set it all aflame. I'd let it singe to ashes, Then I'd kick it to the wall. I'd ask you almost nicely If you'll miss my love at all. If your heart were made of paper, I would laugh and watch it burn. I will never put the fire out, Not until you learn... |

Hi sexyflirt, enjoyed your poem, your metaphor of the paper, isn't love fragile as a paper ?, I understand your wrath and may be some day you will forgive and love again... best wishes yann |

Some powerful vitriol, and an excellent poem here. But I don't believe that hearts are like paper, they're not consumed when they catch light. If someone's hurt you that badly, then they're probably worth neither tears nor wrath. An easy thing to say, a hard thing to do, I know. And all the roads that I've been strolling down... now I've found they all seem to be marooned. So profoundly doomed. |

You rock, this poem speaks in volumes, loud and clear, don't let anyone hurt you, no sir, not anymore, you have had enough! Well put and understood! would be nice if some hearts were paper, then you could cut one out for everyone to have one, because most people are without a heart! Lots of tinmen walking around! ~ARH  |
