I guess I’m like your worst nightmare
If I were on toast
Edible but ugly
I’m here and you don’t want me
There’s nowhere to “go away”

Three times over and a week where no one speaks
I found your hat under the table
There’s no room in here
I’ve stopped breathing
She told a great joke

There’s a horse in that field nextdoor
Take a ride
Fall down
She’ll find you
You’ll score

So where’s the signpost
To lead me away from fire
Where’s the laughter
Where’s the gun

Take your pain a hundredfold
Wrap it in a letter and mail it to never
Three times over in a week
No one speaks
Don’t stop smiling
She loves you now.

Thank-you so very much.
I guess I just kindof rediscovered this site, I haven't posted here in over a year.
Reading through my old work is crazy now.
Everything changes alot in that amount of time.
I'm glad you enjoyed my write.
Thanks.

Yeah...wow petty much sums it up. I loved it, and to pick a part I enjoyed the most would be the part D_W already mentioned. Very cool poem.

And the legacy runs from needles to guns
And no one's immune to the pain
From Marilyn to River Phoenix
From Elvis to Kurt Cobain
