where the wild flowers grow

I write down the words on passion blue
crumbled paper..
My hands drip crimson,
my mind burns crushed in a wicked hue..
I have no time to stop and dream of you.
To scream against influences,
your poetry creates a dirty chorus that rings untrue.

Blatent hate, my body shakes.
A broken vein, and a tear to show my pain..
I wander inside of you to find life.
Swimming between each side of a broken heart that only
one who destroys, knows how to mend..

Waves crash between you and I..
like when fire and ocean water collide.

Oh my, this sounds like an ocean of trouble between you and whoever misunderstands.
Maybe just give them a moment to review?
Peaceful thoughts to you.

this is cool except for the last line. the analogy goes against at least my initial reaction to fire and water meeting.

Well, I have quite a bit to work on as far as my writing goes. I think I've said this before, but I have a hard time when I get to the last line.. Or, following up a good line. What's worse is that sometimes I wish I could end the poem AT the good line, but then it'd seem incomplete. Does anyone else have this problem, or is it just me?
