TILL DEATH DO US PART Silence escapes me, it bleeds through my pen. My life splashed from page unto page. Emotion rapes me, reliving again These convictions that snowball to rage. That cockeyed oppression, subjugating me, That little smirk as you turn. All in my obsessions, twist impatiently Cause it still makes my stomach churn! The flaunt in your walk, the toss of the mane, I wonder who's tuggin' tonight. You don't want to talk, you call me insane, Well I'd say you're just about right. The needles and pins, the remorse for sins That were never mine in the first place... Have bled me so long, now both right and wrong Look the same staring me in the face. Oh the tears, oh the joy, if this is love, oh boy, Just thinkin' what you've put me through, I realize now, I just didn't know how To show you love equally true. For somewhere inside, I cherished my bride, But I swear it now by my last breath. Look on me today, I'll just turn you away, If I have to, I'll leave you by Death. Michael Anderson For all behind was dark and drear, And all before was night and fear. How many hours of night or day In those suspended pangs I lay, I could not tell; I scarcely knew If this were human breath I drew. Lord Byron |

...this is so heartfelt. I can feel the pain in your heart just listening... "Sheltered from the world you scare yourself from the rain...away from the dark sickning fog that so stumblest unto your heart...for no true poet holds loves hand..."-TanAngel |

****The needles and pins, the remorse for sins That were never mine in the first place***... Have bled me so long, now both right and wrong Look the same staring me in the face. Oh the tears, oh the joy, if this is love, oh boy, Just thinkin' what you've put me through, I realize now, I just didn't know how To show you love equally true. --------------- WHEW...I hope ya felt better after writing this one M, seems like a lot of old demons were flowing out that poets pen as well... Sometimes certain people get under our skin and always seem to push the wrong buttons. You anger and frustration drip off this one. It is emotionally EXCELLENT!! you vent divinely my poetic pal. Feel better M, please(smile) take care, jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |
