I'm slowly drowning,
and I've forgotten
how to swim.
As the dark waters
envelop me,
I try to escape.
I try to fight
and free myself.
My watery jail
starts to imprison me.
I reach up,
and clench the cold water.
All oxygen gone,
I make one last
feeble attempt
to hold on to the sanity
that I never truly had.
The same sanity
that I chased after
for years escape me,
once again.
I struggle,
reaching and grabbing it,
succeeding only in grabbing
the dark tomb
that surrounds me now.
One breath of the dark air,
and one more reach
for the sanity that I long for,
and the dark jail imprisons me forever.
I could be criticized
for how I handled things.
They can say I'm wrong,
that I moved too fast.
But I'm truly happy.
Call me selfish,
but that's my main concern.
Call me childish
but the world still
revolves around me
and my happiness.
I am the most important
and I will put myself first.
So don't point your hatred
and your hurt
toward me.
The first cut may be deepest,
but the second went in
just as deep.
I may have cut you badly,
but you made the first cut.
You hurt me first.
So the sob story
of how much I hurt you
does not bother me.
Rewind to the time
when I didn't want to move.
When I wanted to just lay down
and
I wish I could talk to you
and tell you that I shouldn't have.
That everything was a mistake.
The thoughts going through
my head all about you
should not have been there.
I shouldn't have go on
and played along with your game.
I should have stopped
and went away from you.
I should have told you to stop.
But I didn't stop you.
I fed into your game,
and played along with you.
And nothing changed in me.
I still want you.
I didn't get it out of my system.
Now I just want more of you.
I can be called crazy,
but I don't want to let go.
You're not mine
but I want you to be.
I want your words to be a reality.
I want to tell you
I get lost everytime I look into your blue eyes
The butterflies in my stomach takes me by surprise
I know I shouldn't think about you this way.
I can't help it, you've been on my mind all day.
I sneak a peek when I think you're not looking at me
I blush and try to turn away before you can see.
I know I shouldn't think about you this way
I can't help myself, I wish you'd go away.
When I look in your blue eyes
They take me for a ride.
I'm lost and I'm gone
lets get away for awhile.
When I look in your blue eyes
They take me for a ride
Come take me for a ride.
I try hard not to read too much in what I see
Think that you have some
I don't want to talk to you,
look at you anymore.
I wish you would ignore me
so I wouldn't hear your voice
or even your laugh.
I wouldn't look up
to see your smile
that I should get so
excited just to see.
Everything about you
just pulls me in.
And besides the obvious,
that I'm taken by another,
I can't think of one reason
to stay away from you.
That stops any action,
but not my thoughts.
You run through my mind.
And I can't control them.
I want them to stop.
I want you to go away,
at least my mind does.
I know it's wrong
and I know I shouldn't
but I can't stop it.
I knew you first
and going a different way
than I o
I hate you so much.
I hate you because
I want to be in your arms.
I hate you because
I want to kiss you
and I know it's wrong.
I want you to go away,
to the point I'm hysterical
and I'm close to tears.
I hate you because
I want to hate you.
Nothing would make me happier
than to be able to look at you
and honestly hate you.
But as much as I try
I can't force myself to.
I can't sleep because
I don't want to see you.
You haunt and tease me,
someone I want
but I can't touch.
It grows my hatred,
and as much as I try,
my hatred isn't really there.
I wish you would leave
and I'd never have to see you.
You won't leave me mentally,
so leave me physically.
Get far away from me
and let me live in peace.
I never want to see your face
but everyday I sit and wait,
waiting for you to turn the corner.
That warm feeling fills me up
and I start to smile.
I want you to go away,
to never look at me again
never smile at my jokes.
To become pointless in my life,
as I'm sure I am in yours.
But I put myself in a fantasy land
and read into what's not there.
The signs I see aren't real,
yet I spend hours fantisizing,
wishing my dream was real.
Fantasies run through my mind
as I glanc
I'm afraid and excited,
lost but so sure of myself.
I'm on a new adventure,
and you're leading me
To this new country,
yet we're not leaving this couch.
You're bringing me to a new world,
but we won't leave this room.
Everything I once knew
doesn't seem to matter,
the knowledge is false.
I can look in your eyes,
and all I can see
is the hazel and blue.
When you look in mine,
you see my fears,
old pain and old tears.
You can read me like a book,
although I stayed closed before
to so many people.
But you look to me,
and the pages start to turn.
My whole life story
on display before your eyes.
Yet, I don't feel the need
I'm slowly drowning,
and I've forgotten
how to swim.
As the dark waters

I try to escape.

Yet, I don't feel the need
I am a writer with blank pages;
a singer who is mute.
I am a dancer with no legs;
a politician without proof.
I am the little sister who no longer looks up;
a child with an equal mind.
I am the mother without a child;
a woman's words that are no so kind.
I am the genuine smile perfectly rehearsed;
a kindly witch whom she herself has cursed.
I am the tiniest of lies when the truth doesn't care;
an echoing of lingering goodbyes when no one is there.
I am a clock with no hands;
a picture with no frame.
I am a blind man with The Sight;
the runner who was lame.
I am the bare winter tree forever reaching for the sky.

Do not assume (if I hold the door for you),
that I am making a statement
about your inabilities
to open the door for yourself.
If you hold it for me,
I'll say 'thankyou'.
Do not assume (if I pay for the meal),
that I am underestimating
your earning capacity
as a woman.
If you invite me out for a meal,
you're paying.
Do not assume (if I defend your rights),
that I am belittling
the attempts that you have made
to defend your rights yourself.
If you defend my rights,
I'll consider you human.

Have music to the song I was working on, sounds pretty good, fingers hurt like hell right now though. But all is good. Good mood, got some magic cards (and they're all mine!!!!) and been doing really good lately, despite what my newest poems portray. Have a good day everyone :)
I'm doing good. I think I fixed everything and I'm happy where I am now. Just peaceful. I can't help but smile all the time. Well, time to write music to my song. :)
