hi this is one more of my posts. maybe my 3rd i forget. okay. read and reply please, thank you. bye. only one When the days are so dull like this one Well does it mean I am too If when I'm lost Does that mean my mind is wandering When the results aren't always perfect Am I not either? I know it's wrong to doubt myself like this But I can't pretend to find myself And if I can't find myself Must mean I'm sure not found When all's rotten and things are well Does that mean I've gone bad? I feel just like this should feel Like nothing and it must mean I'm not a thing If I'm spoken about in past tense Does that mean I'm as good as dead? And as I wonder day to day I realize I'm not needed anyway I've forsaken the world and myself And I believe I'm nothing.. I believe I may have passed up a good thing And before my raw truth is cooked I must let myself know I was born into this without help Without the comfort of hell i'll remain like tomorrow.. so close to dead and My head aches like it were a tumor and My eyes peel off of every movement as if it were my last look and My feet like splinters on smooth floor and The world in my eyes is like no place I need.. My last days these have to be numbered because everywhere I look I see only one. |

The entire piece was outstanding, and from this poet's point of existence, all too well relatable. Very cool poem. Your weaving of yourself into the cynical, sarcastic metaphors of life through sore eyes was awesome. "When all's rotten and things are well Does that mean I've gone bad? I feel just like this should feel" Indeed.... (((And a belated WELCOME TO DARK!!!))) [This message has been edited by Purity (08-11-2002 04:28 AM).] |
