Hypocrite By: Noah Eaton 1/6/02 You examine my anatomy Measure my toxicity Study my tolerance for pain Research my praxiology Even when you know I have hyperesthesia Make me cry, improvise a scheme Make a move I can't defend You sacrifice your ears for extra eyes Think I'm prattling, well think again I know well that you're listening But I couldn't help falling for you I thought that your love was telling the truth Objection I'd say if I knew I was fooled But you sustained and overruled You hunted me down like Hera Petrified me with your eyes of Medusa I loved you for who you were But now you've changed Please stay away... All the sentiments you made are ovicidal But you know the verdict is inevitable Keep spinning everything like a ferris wheel But soon you'll know how it feels When the big top falls But I couldn't help falling for you I thought that your love was telling the truth Objection I'd say if I knew I was fooled But you sustained and overruled You hunted me down like Hera Petrified me with your eyes of Medusa I loved you for who you were But now you've changed Please stay away... The minute when you first deeply touched me I thought we were meant to be But I'm just a fool... Interrogated Devastated Retrograded Agitated Is what you've left me feeling In the obituary where I'm digging I truly wish you the best I truly hope you find what you desire But can you taste the pain Can you taste it? I couldn't help falling for you I thought that your love was telling the truth Objection I'd say if I knew I was fooled But you sustained and overruled You hunted me down like Hera Petrified me with your eyes of Medusa I loved you for who you were But now you've changed Please stay away... I did the best I could for you I was willing to share everything with you But I will not be taken as a subaltern I won't be taken under-the-counter So stay away... Stay away...

Noah, my friend this is a very well written but sad poem...and my heart tells me it is your sadness.... I hope not, but I will say this... you will feel love again, you will love again...you love right now... And you, like all the rest of us, even as we cry...will live through the pain...and a smile will return to your face, just as it did our own... Missed seeing you here!!! |

Oh dear oh dear, the pain of love can hit real hard. We've all been there, but I'm sure that knowledge isn't comforting you right now. Will a Dutch knuffel help I'm so sorry Noah, come here and I will hug you. Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

Noah sorry you're feeling this way but at the same time I must say this, at least in my eyes, is the best thing you've ever written. Raw, honest and heartfelt. Life isn't always roses but the words we write sometimes get us through [This message has been edited by Aenimal (01-06-2003 09:26 PM).] |

Intense, Noah. Maybe if you can step back away from this for a short time you'll find a positive lesson in the experience, in spite of all the pain. I think you should go get that big knuffel hug from Titia. Or maybe come downtown to the LoDo Tattered Cover bookstore and cruise the stacks, bump elbows with hundreds of other warm sentient beings? |

Dear Noah, I don't think there is one among us who hasn't felt this way before. It's like getting punched below the belt, but it's important that we don't let our pain turn us into a bitter person. You will be loved someday, believe in it! Hugs good poet!! |

if it didnt hurt so bad, you wouldnt have written this so good, heres some straight advice: stay off the internet for love.............i think sometimes our romantic nature forces us to paint people into who we want/think them to be.......until you look into someones eyes,realtime, its all just lightweight puppy love, youre a great guy, kind of cute, though i prefer darker men, but youll be fine in time [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (01-07-2003 09:31 PM).] |

I sense what you feel when you wrote these words, my thoughts are with you dear one. Give it time, lots of time you will heal, trust me on this one, I've been here before. |

Noah...Sad my friend. Just give your heart ample time to heal and things will be better. For each feeling of hurt and pain in your heart now shall be replaced with joy and happiness again. For each tear of sorrow that falls now shall be replaced by tears of joy soon. For each sad poem you write may you write a thousand poems of your true happy self that we all love and care about. For each road that has ended there will be a guardian angel near to guide you down a bright new path. Paul "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" |

Priceless, Noah. A very emotional, touching piece, with the feeling of a song. I hope this is in the past, for you, something to learn from, not a scar still healing. ~Titus "A life unexamined is not worth living." |
