I close my eyes As I listen to the rain Falling outside on my window pane The sound caresses my senses I can feel chills running up and down my spine God, I pray unto you Between sobs of dispair Let the rain Wash away my pain I'm wondering How naive could I have been again To let my feelings in I wanted to close that door I so desperately didn't want to End up back here on the floor Sprawled in memories Sinking deeper into depression All because of someone's poor display of affection He told me Like many others before That he thought he knew what I needed Apparently he turned out to be more than just conceited Just tell me Jesus Tell me what I'm doing wrong Are you sure that it's not me giving the wrong impression That I'm always going to be waiting around 24/7 Am I not a human being Instead of a seven-eleven!? Just let your angels Hold me right now As I'm cradling back and forth Ease these cliches Ease these assumptions Tell me everything is going to be okay I just want to allow myself to love again And no longer allow myself To fall prey to another's deception I don't know how much stronger I can be When my soul always ends up Strapped, bound and gagged to this bed of shame Longing to be washed away By the rain.. If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. [This message has been edited by Ceinwyn (10-30-2002 01:25 PM).] |

Let me start off by saying, I had been missing you and your poetry. This heartbreaking poem near had me to tears. How painful for you (if you're writing from personal experience). ~ sending you some warm angel hugs EA |

Am I not a human being Instead of a seven-eleven!? love the biting humour in that line, hugs powerful out pouring, enjoyed the read and remember every rain storm has a rainbow. The ladders of life that we scale merrily Move mysteriously around So that when you think you're climbing up, man In fact you're climbing down-Nick ca |
