Array ( [sid] => 14452 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Us [time] => 2003-03-17 23:45:00 [hometext] => This refers to a couple people in my life. The thoughts aren't terribly organized, but that's the way I wanted it because that's the state my mind was in. [bodytext] => I'm so sick and tired of being me
Of being the weapon that will kill me
Of being so difficult just because I can
Because you'll still be there at the end
Of expecting what I do from you
Of hating almost everything you do
I'm tired of it all so can't I just go to sleep?
Close my eyes and wake up next to you

Over and over I always think
I might lose you because of what I do
But I can't think of any other way to be
Be the only one your eyes can see
Be all I wanted myself to be
And do all the things I know I should do
Stop hiding behind what I think is all I am
"You're so much more than you think you are"

Listen to the voice inside my head
But my bruised heart is so much louder
Can't I go someplace where there's only you and me?
I'll ignore this world if I want to
I thought I was you but I'm just me
Shut up shut up don't tell me what to do
You're so different than I thought you could ever be
I don't even want to talk to you

I only want this noise in my head
I don't care if you like it 'cause I do
And I love you so much more than anyone knows
Right now I want to hide in my space
Say you can't see me but hope you can
So come to me 'cause I need you now
I want to be the one who makes you come undone
So I'm not the only one like this

'Cause I've walked away so many times
And I just want to stay here forever
I feel my soul is fading but what do you see?
And I'm so completely incomplete
But when we come together I'm free
Everything is right when I'm one with you
And I can feel the heavens shining on my face
So all I need when I'm down...

o Dee! That is beautiful.... well, a bit twisted to.... but beautiful....

If you need to talk.... I'm still worried about you... I wish I was there to give you The Look... the one that always made you tell me what was wrong... because you need a The Look now...

Always and Forever Me,
Jaime Leigh

    I agree with Jaime... A bit twisted, but really good.

    I can feel your hurt, and anger, and like, total emotions, dude.

    You know that if you need to talk, I'm right here for you, and I always will be. I know what you're going through right now must be tough, and you can talk to me about it. I can't promise I'll always understand what you're saying, and I can't promise I'll give you any advice, and I definitely can't promise I'll say the right thing. You know I never can... But I can promise I'll be here for you, always and forever.

    Love,
    Em

    an amazing poem, i think we've all experienced inner conflict of some sort like this but you captured it so well
