My distinction


Might something so stale
Become a growing addiction
Will someone’s mistake
Be my distinction?

Will light show the things that shall shudder?
Will dark cover the things that shall bother?
May life define the meaning of its book?
May death change its title?

Breaked this stale connection
Made this breath your last
Faked your own frustrations
Waked from a dream in a gasp

By the mean's  to an end
my life has ended,
Will someone’s mistake
be my distinction?

Ok, this is an kind of experiment for me.It's a style I have been avoiding,but here it is.

I just love that part. It could be taken in so many different contexts! If you've been avoiding this style lately, then KEEP WRITING in it!!!! It's good. Really good!

It takes more work to love myself than to love others... I guess that explains it, eh?

This is an amazing piece of writing, Carlos. I am honestly impressed by this poem. It comes across in so many different ways and it's dark on tons of levels.
There are too many favourite parts to pull out so I'll just stick with the whole piece.

Well done. I hope to see many more.

Maybe I'm just a girl...interrupted.

Love is like learning to play the piano. First you must learn to play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play by your heart.
