*save the last page for something special* you drain your heart, and it's still bleedin line after line and rhyme after time and you're still needin all those notebooks you had to buy and you write the same pages countless times i know what that feels like you're on your own; got a blank page in the back hope you saved the best for last... a checkered past? yeah, we've all done it heart ripped out and lights punched out sounds so redundant. all those nights you made out alive dad kicked your ass and mom just cried i know what that feels like you're on your own; got a blank page in the back hope you saved the best for last... Does it ever get any better? Writing the same things forever Getting older and sober Living over and over again... you're on your own; got a blank page in the back hope you saved the best for last... wait for the dare-to-be-great situation hope it'll be my last-page inspiration savin' the best for last it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown |

MidnightSon, Sounds like classic rock verse, or hip-hop verse, or ... both?! Mike |

This would make a great hurtin' country song. They are so popular because they're all about human emotion and life experiences. Sure, if you want to, save the best for the last page---of each chapter---and remember, there are many chapters to be written in your life's book! It gets richer and more meaningful as you work your way through it! Wonderful poem Linda |

actually i picked up the rhythm from a Less than Jake song stuck in my head... a good ska band for those unfamiliar. thanks for stopping by, both of ya's. it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown |

"Empty pages, I've read you all through Empty pages, filled with spaces I fell in, and I fell in"... Almost felt as if you were writing specifically to me, as I reminesce over my writings of the last few years...I did say, however, in the intro to my book that the title might as well have been called "Redundent Redundencies"... How many times can we actually poetically write about the same theme? Who knows...I guess I'm here to prove it infinite... Loved this one...almost too much.
