[hometext] => --I wrote this a year ago, it focuses on my feelings for my shortcomings and inadequacies. I admit its not that clear, but Im still proud of it--
[bodytext] => I lost sight of love in a hail of gunfire Its direction hurt my eyes No freedom for failure Letting go for nothing Repeating instances in the middle Every broken step you tread This war I fight inside my mind Is nothing more than things you’ve said The balance, of my days, is not in my control Deny, what holds you down, to find out you’re the hole Another fracture. Repent and recede Another failure. Tear and deceive I can’t live on broken faith, so release my bleeding hands My final greed for air My sewn up heart is leaking blood, so give me back my ignorance And let life start again I touch the punctures like small perfections Freedom from the fall All you can see are a thousand holes Exposing every flaw WHO IS BEYOND FORGIVENESS PIERCE YOURSELF AND SEE WITH YOUR HEART And in this gunfire I am perfected Its heaven, its love, its lust And with this fracture I am repented Dissolve into the dust [comments] => 2 [counter] => 186 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Iwan [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
