I remember the note written to myself sweet surge in realisation of what we had I still mean every word escaped upon paper it would have been, enough, kept only in my head. Funny, I may as well have kept them there and torn to shreds each line of waste like every word you lied, tears in my head today am I being to harsh upon your withered fake? You asked me, when did I realise how much you loved me? without answer were you, for I, was never graced with such feelings you knew epiphany you said, graced with my infinite heart all I ever knew in truth was that I loved you whole Falling over myself to heal you when in need nurse to patient, nothing in return, but further abuse feared you dead, my countless hours awake alone I imagine you carried on regardless, laughing as I cried and died so young You're stuck in my bones, you know? wishing, but knowing I'll never out grow the mark you made good and bad, unconditional remains, now, I love you, and expect nothing back. Instant karma's gonna get you. [This message has been edited by gemjop (08-03-2003 09:24 PM).] |

I especially loved the line "you're stuck in my bones, you know?". That's something I've felt often. |

"now, I love you, and expect nothing back." What more is there to say? Nothing. You've summed it all up in those words. It's hard to grow up and watch your friends remain in the same mindset that you left them in |

You know I just can't help reading your poetry with an english accent? Just 'cause you say you're from England. Sorry, it's just something I tend to do. Zu gets it too. It's alright, it means that I actually bother to hear as well as see your writing. Take it as a compliment. Nice to see you in Sanctuary. Thanks for sharing. Parasite Faith is a fine invention |

Gem . . . these lines stand alone by themselves as utter raw emotion as I have never read . . . felt yes, but not read: Falling over myself to heal you when in need nurse to patient, nothing in return, but further abuse feared you dead, my countless hours awake alone I imagine you carried on regardless, laughing as I cried and died so young died so young . . . we shall never learn shall we? This one hit to the core and stuck xxoo |
