Alternative historys for personal tragedies.

Explosion of emotion,
A religion based on hate,
Ripples across the ocean,
Towers high like fate,
Our feelings under spotlight,
Our dreams just turn to dust,
A future which was bright,
Turns dark without our trust,
Drink away our sorrow,
Our headache crashes down,
Dream of your tommorow,
In bitterness I drown,
My heart begins to shatter,
Leaving me so weak,
It’s brought down in a clatter,
So it’s revenge I’m here to seek.

I'd appreciate it if you would re-read the title it might put everything into perspective...

"You would say anything, you would try anything, to escape your meaningless, your insignifcance" -Muse "Escape"

Revenge is a no no unless someone else is doing it for you. It's the quickest way to not get arrested.  

now I had to read this like 8 times to fully understand and after reading the title, then the piece, then the title again, I know what you are talking about. "Our feelings under spotlight,
Our dreams just turn to dust,
A future which was bright,
Turns dark without our trust,"
That was an instant thing. Yes, it's pretty obvious. I do like this from you. It's more from that heart of yours.  

Take care Zuey and don't you ever stop writing.

i enjoyed the rhythm, you kept it going throughout the entire piece.

but one thing's bugging me, and when you typed it the same way in the post, i figured it wasn't a typo.

*histories not historys

just thought i should let you know.

Ok, I didn't like the revenge part.  
never stoop down to the same level as them
I thought that was a tragic ending to an excellent start
You're a good guy Zu, though you side w/ the girls in chat    
You are very respectful, keep it that way
keep your head up
I thought that was a tragic ending to an excellent start

Andrew,

I really like this poem ... although I don't like the revenge part of it. I'm not really one for revenge, but other than that, it was EXCELLENT!!!  
all my love,
Stace

i dont think that revenge is the nessesary thing here- its just another way out. another way to deal with whats happened in ones life. i personally dont believe in it, but yes i agree with you zu- revenge is an alternative. good poem as always buddy- keep writing and ill keep reading..

see the glass crack like a flower opening
