Dry My Eyes by J.Sage (9/1/00) protected by copyright I hide the photo Stained by us You A mockery of me I run to you In my dreams I wake up to my own screams I look around my environment Cranberry murder visions And it doesn't have to make sense to you Because it does to me Peel me open And you'll find The fetus of love Aborted by your first lie Or miscarried by my first tries… To forgive Forgive him, no Less beauty within Behind pretty blue eyes Lie beautiful lies And although I don't believe In him I saw sin But, the heat never died In my head All the emotions Love made me dread The fear Of my love spawned cries Caused my pulse to race My temperature to rise And my nausea to begin Whenever you come by This house My heart Is not a home Without your lies But I don't want them back Shut down Close up I want to sleep in silence I want to dream in peace I guess it's time I dry my eyes [This message has been edited by JSage (edited 09-21-2000).] |

its so hard to dry those eyes sometimes...but we can do it!....this is full of intensity, gut wrenching emotion...i do admire your ways, your words. ~Dawn "Steady as it comes, right down to you, I've said it all, so maybe we're a Bliss of another kind" Bliss-Tori Amos |

Oh how I can relate to what you have written so well and yes those eyes are hard to dry and when you think the tears are all gone it seems more come. Great job I hope you are feeling better soon Blue |

Hi there! Loved your poem! "Forgive him, no Less beauty within Behind pretty blue eyes Lie beautiful lies And although I don't believe In him I saw sin" This is simply superb! I like the imagery you have in this... it says a lot! You take Care! ~ Tara ~ "A poem should not mean, but be" - Archibald MacLeish |

You know something funny, Tara.. and I almost made a note of this on the original post, but,.... that little section you just quoted I wrote over a year ago (about the same person, though) and I never knew what to do with it and one day I was looking through old journal, found that little section and was inspired to write Dry My Eyes and throw that right in the middle. Thank you! -Jes |
