The man for me

Contributed by merry on Friday, 13th May 2005 @ 08:32:00 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Galvanized by hollow words
Ringing in my ears
Shame fills my mouth
With lies to keep you happy
While I die with each breath
Aching for the end
Fearing the loss of light
But still wanting to embrace the darkness
Having stayed too long
My blood on the walls
My prayers turned to gritty tears
Having blindly searched for god
Underneath the bed
The cat watches me
Twitching her tail annoyed
I lay silently staring at her golden eyes
Wondering why you loved me at all
Wishing I had closed my eyes
Closed the doors
Too much the coward to go it alone
So I listen to you snore
Tell myself that its always like this
It wouldnt matter who was lying there
Love and romance is not the same thing
So I settled for whatever you are

I like how you leave this open ended (at the end) ...
but oh, the ache... there, but, not seen, felt.

and ahh, grumble, it's what I hate about myself too.

It wouldn’t matter who was lying there
