[hometext] => Based on a true story, sometimes you just dont know what to believe...
[bodytext] => So riddle me, riddle me, riddle me this Where was my boy, the night of the kiss? The kiss, the kiss, the kiss of sweet death That hit me so hard, like a slug in the chest… Where was my boy, when those two lost their lives? Was he really there,among the glow of smooth knives? Did he tell me the truth or feed me his sweet lies? Where was my boy, my boy that sad night? Ive known him so long, it could never be true I thought to myself, as I read the article twice through He was my own, my only, my one for a while Had it really been that long, since I’d seen that boys smile? So I called the old number, I’d had since long ago And asked for the name, tho it stuck in my throat And I heard the voice of a boy who’d once been all mine And I asked him and begged of him, the truth please, this time He told me it was all just a bittersweet lie, a lie And I believed that boy, told him it would be alright So he told me the story of what really happened that night And it seems to me, the paper didn’t have it quite right They said that he’d done it, he’d done it for fun But I knew my boy, he wasn’t, just wasn’t, couldn’t be the one So riddle me, riddle me, riddle me this Where was my boy, the night of the kiss? The kiss, the kiss, the kiss of sweet death That hit me so hard, like a slug in the chest… Where was my boy, when those two lost their lives? Was he really there, among the glow of smooth knives? Did he tell me the truth or feed me his sweet lies? Where was my boy, my boy that sad night?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
