I throw rhyming words against the wall Hear them break, watch them fall Each one feeding my sense of rage Bleeding down this pristine page Tears are frozen in my eyes Body numbed and desensitized Stupidity branded on my forehead Declarations believed now torn to shreds Again, I remember that love’s a game That someone can lose is a factual shame Words spew forth from a darkened mind There is no solace here for me to find It can give comfort to write rhyming words They seem cute, but their power can be heard So take it from me when the game is lost Just play to the end and absorb the cost. Life is just a page filled with rhyming words It’s a cynical joke in the comedy of the absurd. aziza [This message has been edited by aziza (09-07-2006 04:27 AM).] |

They seem cute, but their power can be heard So take it from me when the game is lost Just play to the end and absorb the cost. Life is just a page filled with rhyming words It’s a cynical joke in the comedy of the absurd. yes, the power of hurt can be heard in this...extremely emotional, frenzied....ahhhh but, love is always there, regardless of someone's unkind words or actions, and it is that love that brings you to know, you'll be much better for the knowing if you heed the warning signs...people who love do not do unkind things...they are upfront, first and foremost, with concern for the hearts of others.... Keep writing, no matter what... luv your pip sista |

The words I hated and threw I still loved and cherished Though angry I was excited Casting the emotions Removing for a moment That which hurt That which brought sadness I watched them fall As the silent tears fell Again alone Again lonely I gathered my rhyme Sat in the corner And a lullaby came My blanket of words Were my comfort My life aziza, you sound sad dear friend, I hope you are well. We all go through these moments and somehow get through them all. Great words and thoughts you shared. Take care my friend. Sincerely Rick |

Good write, aziza....but I think life has lots of non-rhymes, too. Still, this was a good read and I felt your anger.....jo |

Feeling this write, aziza, and this "Just play to the end and absorb the cost." How true of life in all respects. |

Stupidity branded on my forehead... sometimes that branding rises to the surface on me...but only temporarily. M |
