My own world

0 posted 2005-08-27 04:09 PM


She got so tired of false promises and empty lies,
Yet every time it happens, it takes her by surprise.

She wants to let go of you, and find her own way,
But she’s so scared to fail, scared of what you’d say.

The emptiness consumes her, her fear crippled by pride,
She wants to be beautiful to the one who won’t open his eyes.

No matter how hard she tries, it will never be enough,
So she closes her eyes, and then she cries, and learns to be tough.

The mind games get old, and the pain gets harder to hide,
The truth gets harder to say, it’s just easier to lie.

Her synthetic paint peels off, she’s just paints on another coat,
Every layer represents all the words she never wrote.

She over analyzes and tears apart every word you speak,
It’s the fact that she loves you that makes her heart so weak.

She said that being strong was never letting her feelings show,
And she cries for the hurt and pain that you will never know.

I'm sorry for your pain in this piece... we of the male species aren't neccessarily the most intelligent or sensitive to others pain at times.   i enjoyed the read tho

"Her synthetic paint peels off, she’s just paints on another coat,

i really enjoyed that part, looking forward to more from you

I loved this.

Awesome. I know this so well. I really liked the title of this. It definitely drew me in.

I cant believe how long i waited
for the boy to turn into my man...

Now if i could figure out, if it was worth the wait.

He wasn't saying that females are necessarily smarter, but that males sometimes just do not seem to catch on to subtle hints or sensitivities that we are more apt to show. Math, Science, English and other school subjects have nothing to do with it, it's the difference between perceptions of feelings in men and women.
