Blue #27 Stuck in a perfect moment of blue snuck into the inner realms of you and all that I've learned these past five years is the summation of all my fears of loving you Finding familiar laugh lines in the night spreading across your face under moonlight and all the bridges I've burned were leading to you this was the reaction to the way my heart flew clumsily to you So I'm scared of this already so I've fared no better in a previous life if your glass heart falls because my hands are unsteady then I don't know what to say to you but I've learned how to charm you with a lie it's easier to assure you my feelings were always true always for you I'd sit and sigh ah, but.. The Philidelphia autumn looms largely crushing me 'neath it's heel, so I'm marginally okay to stay with you tonight this is my reatreat into the soft light a breath away from you But it's just not convenient for me right now it's just not enough to say and mean it right now I'm talking about losing myself in you stuck in a moment of perfect blue of loving you So I'm aware of this already so beware of skeletons in my closet graveyards in my eyes, heart stumbling, not ready for a truth quite like you but I've learned how to arm myself with a smile it's easier to be sure of me before I am of you anyway, for you I'd like to take a while and uncover a little beauty inside me that you can trust You'll find me stuck in a perfect moment of blue sneaking into the inside of you and all I've done over the years is the outcome of my tears from wanting love You'll find me between the dawn and the skeletons in my closet wanting love wanting your love "The moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell". -- Tom Waits, 'Bad Live and a Broken Heart' |

Zach, is this a repost? Seems so familiar... and very, very lovely... "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

>Zach, is this a repost? Seems so familiar... No, I just have an awful tendency to repeat myself...heheh "The moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell". -- Tom Waits, 'Bad Live and a Broken Heart' |

Finding familiar laugh lines in the night spreading across your face under moonlight and all the bridges I've burned were leading to you This poem is really good.. It's very touching... I found the above to catch my eye..it reminded me of one of my own memories. |
