Penning poetry, singing sad songs, And humming a lonely lullaby. And this is I, softly. Turned down at a low volume. I’ll dance for you. Spin in circles, Perhaps attempt a triple. Anything to impress the hard edged cynic. So this is life? Where’d it go, the dreams flushed away With the innocence of youth Redefine ‘rock bottom’ As I watch it go downhill. Blame gravity. Tear stained eyes. Dirty tutu. I’ll dance on pointe shoes (But not really). I’ll kiss your lips Desperate to stir basic human emotion. You didn’t even feel it. Am I no more than a ghost? Withering in the sunlight White as powdered snow, delicate On those pointe shoes. You are hard, strong, and dark Against my wintered pallor. Pour your soul into mine Drink from the fountain of the divine. Step into the new light Open yourself, reach a new height. But I watch it evaporate before my eyes. Left penning poetry, singing sad songs And humming a lonely lullaby. I watch it go downhill. Blame gravity. [eep i dunno what this was] The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return. |

Fluck yes!!! No, yes, no this is what I expect from some famous poet, and lordy lordy, you may well be. Waaay better than 'Among Stars' I just replied to, not trying to offend the other one at all but I actually love this one. As in, change MSN name for it kind of love. Fluck YES. Ck. Hollow. Come on God, do I seem bulletproof? |
