Comprehend Me Crying for normalcy a reason to believe in myself and in you. Understand that you are not the reason my eyes glaze over and go cold. Trying to keep me warm so I don’t become a horrid ice sculpture killing people’s souls. Realize that the pain I feel was not caused by myself my selfishness or you but rather brought on blatantly by every guy I’ve ever known. I’m a little girl again walking home cars drive by and pull up beside me windows roll down men making offers to a child who cannot comprehend sex cannot comprehend why a grown man would wish to remove the clothes from such a child and break the barrier between a twenty-nine year old man and a ten year old child. They stole my faith in the good of man kind the good that doesn’t appear to exist in the male gender and you try endlessly to restore my faith in you. My innocence still exists and I am yet a child of fifteen to everyone but you. Chew my bubble gum smoke my candy cigarettes you try to make me smile tickle me under my armpits but I press my lips together tighter until I’m biting my lips together to simply keep myself from smiling at you. Stubborn yeah don’t try to understand. This was semi-inspired by a poem by a friend. I've never seen you on the streets of this town, I've never seen you just hanging around, But you still tell me that you know me... ~Justin Sane [This message has been edited by Allysa (08-19-2002 11:42 AM).] |

Wow, you wrote this very very well. I like the story that you've portrayed, although it's very sad. Experiences really do shape people into what they become, and it's unfortuante when negative experiences do this to someone...Anyways, you said this was about a friend. I wish your friend the best of luck and it's cool that you got inspiration from her.  Always, Nikki *~Fighting for your love~* |

Actually, the poem is about some stuff that's happened to me in the past but it was semi-inspired by a poem by a friend of a friend of mine by Doug Jerome. Thank you everyone. |
