Bring Me Home
By RosePetal


Is unhappiness my life story?
Looks that way through recurring territory
As soon as my heart was healed
You came along and broke the seal
A force pulls me to you
We get lost somewhere in a kiss
All you want to do is play
I can't do this

Your heart is my second home
Your arms are like shutters
Protecting me from storms
Crossing them now across your chest
No longer wanting to keep me warm
Still I ask of you to bring me home
expose me to the comfort that you once shown

You can't just appear on my door step
Whenever you like
Believe it or not
Beyond you, I have a life

You're playing games
And I just don't find them fun
Your past playing hard to get
If your heart can't be won

My heart will beat on
Hope you'll grow up soon
I can't let you batter my heart
and leave it with wounds

Either go your seperate way
Or bring me home today
let me in your walls
Or bare them of the memories
One after the other watch them fall

Don't mess me up in my head, don't try to scold me
If you're gonna do it then do it
Leave me lonely
The time is now or never so make your decision
Craddle my heart, bring me home
Or slice an incision

Lock me out
Or bring me home
Kick me down in the dirt
Or raise me up high
A queen on the throne

If this person's playing games, he will probably always play games. Best be movin' on.

Good outpouring of the soul.

RosePetal,
Oh happy day! (that's a song you know) Don't call it stupid. You just think with your heart instead of your head. Which is fine as long as your safe.

RosePetal,
I'm still workin' on how to let you down easy. I'm old honey! About the heart and the head. The answer is yes.  But, it usually involves pain by choice. And it hurts for a long time but it heals. Believe me dear, I've lived long enough to know. And have risked it all for love cause I'm that kind of guy. You'll make it!

Rose petals, it's time to go swimming...maybe even deep sea diving for the REEL fish, not that tadpole you're talking about.  Did I just say that?

This poem is nice!
I can tell it's from experience because you write it with feeling. Make sure you keep the hits coming!
