...in my boxers...

0 posted 2001-11-02 03:30 AM


I struggle to grasp the truth,
as my mind flows to and frey.
Emotions become uncouth;
some would blush at what I wish to say.
My mind can’t handle the fact you’ll never be mine.
I rip up the roots of the vine
that my desire for you has become.
As the pain pricks endless at me; I become numb.
Never will our hearts beat as one!
The magnitude of it hits as I slowly am undone.
I rip out my hair; I beat on my chest.
I slip into murky darkness; it dawns on me - my life is a mess.
Sitting in my dungeon of despair,
I realize you, nor I, nor anyone does care.
As I wish to end it once and for all,
I grasp quite gravely - you already have.

I think I posted this once before in "Open Poetry #1?" but for the life of me, I can't find it! It's one of my favorite poems ever, and I wanted to share it with you all in here. If I did post it, and some of you replied, I'm so sorry!

*I have blond roots*

Again, it's important to me, as you are, so.. here it is.

Sincerely,
Titus

Wow...

The ending kicked major tooshie.
So sad....My heart sunk...It was horrible...Ecspecially when read slowly and quietly...Man...Awesome effect.
Anyway, the poem was absolutely outstanding...I loved it.. More I say! MORE!

Every now and then I like to stick my foot in my mouth...

(big hugggsssssss) I think we can all relate to experiences like these, sweet friend, before I felt no one in the world loved me until a few years ago when I met someone who got me to start writing then finding everyone here and meeting my dream girl Joanna and wonderful friends like you! (sigh) Know you are always loved by many, sweet friend, we all love you so much, God Bless You! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Daniel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
