"I don't have a reason to feel bad today" "but it's in season, so if i may... can i fill up you with distress and dismay?" my ears pricked up "oh what will he say?" "You see there was a time when I was gone, You thought I was lonely, but you were wrong, The vacation was tedious and far too long. Why would you care? You're oh so strong." He cleared his throat and breathed in "Let's see,now where can I ever begin? It wasn't a mistake, just a little sin I thought I told you. Want to hear again?" I knew what was coming and I thought I might Tell him I didn't care, just out of spite Things in the past should be left there, right? What's the use of losing, if you don't want to fight? "There was a girl, I forgot her name So many faces, but now they all seem the same We had to stay inside because of the rain What? Why are you crying? Are you in pain?" He stopped for a second to check for my tears But with no attempt to dispell my fears He said "She had something in her looks and leers." All his casual cruelties fell upon my ears. "You know it was germany a foreign land. She reached out for me and took my hand No I didn't fight, I couldn't even stand. If you had seen this girl, you would understand. She put it in a place I didn't try to touch. And then some kisses, it wasn't so much She whispered words in German and such Hey come on it was only a touch!" All this time he had grown on me like a rash Dreams fall down, slam and crash He flicked my feelings away like cigarette ash I'd have to say that we clash ------------------ "Come night, come darkness, for you cannot come too soon or stay too long in such a place as this."

Verry good sad but good.But then again all of your poems have been good.keep it up you have a gift of writing you should fallow it. ------------------ The wise man is the storm prays God,not for safety from danger,but for deliverance from fear.It is the storm within which endangers him,not the storm without. ~~Ralh Waldo Emerson~~ |
