In an upside-down garden

Author's Note: This does not pertain to me. It may pertain to some of my buds, but not to me!!

I couldn't live my life like that,
the way that you do.
I couldn't bear to love like that,
I can't be like you.
I couldn't find it in my heart,
to stay here very long.
I couldn't teach my heart to sing,
that same simple sone.
I couldn't live my life like that,
loving you in vain.
I couldn't live my life like that,
to you it's all the same.
I couldn't live my like that way,
wanting ever more.
I couldn't live my life with you,
everything was a bore.
I couldn't live my life like that,
wondering when I'll fall/
And if I had to live like that,
I wouldn't want to live at all.

Hmmm, just came up with this a sec ago. Wanted to throw it at you all to see what you thought. Bye! Allysa

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.

This was nice. The repetition was nice. I thought it was ok but not as good as some of your others.

I think this is good, it really tells your thoughts well

This was a great poem. In my last relationship i felt like this but i didn't realize it until it was over. Someone said something the other day and it was along the lines of "it's great to be in a relationship but make sure that you know you will be ok without him", which is sooo true!

This is a very good piece. It's awful when you love someone but you know that you can't live with them. I'm glad that this doesn't apply to you, but you still portray the feelings very well. Keep it up!

I can't see at all. Even if I could it would all be gray, put your picture on my wall, it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad.
