Array ( [sid] => 30197 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => in this grave, i lie alone [time] => 2003-12-26 16:54:21 [hometext] => [bodytext] => where forgotten dreams are once more recalled
where jagged memories soften when reviewed
where everything that once mattered, doesn't
in this grave, i lie alone

where helping hands may no longer reach
where careless words no longer sting
life was fumbling foreplay
in path to this tender bliss
in this grave, i lie alone

where repentance seems a hollow hobby
where night and day are much the same
the smile i'd lost finally returns
in this grave, i lie alone

you said you loved me and i believed
foolish, i thought our love was set in stone
then with no warning, your love was gone
and i was left to weep alone

and in that moment, i died alone [comments] => 8 [counter] => 325 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Cancer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

A deep sad poem, but with a meaning that holds so much truth to it.
Beautifully written as always Cancer.
I hope to read more when I am next onsite.

I commented on this 2 years ago. i said flatly that 'i do not like it.'


well, I was just now, searching for my own email address on google for complicated reasons, and i came across this link.

Mistakenly, I thought it was a poem that I had written, and completley forgot about. (in this grave, i lie alone sounds brilliantly like something id say) so i begain to read it as if it were spawned from my own mind...

I thought to myself, GOSH i like this poem. I did a good job on this. I cannot remember this at all but gosh i sure did a super job on it.

Halfway through the poem i realized (quite sadly, and dissapointedly, actually, for i would love to take credit for it) that it was indeed not mine and quite indeed yours.

i loved the stanzas,

where forgotten dreams are once more recalled
where jagged memories soften when reviewed
where everything that once mattered, doesn't
in this grave, i lie alone

where helping hands may no longer reach
where careless words no longer sting
life was fumbling foreplay
in path to this tender bliss
in this grave, i lie alone


ESPECIALLY the lines
where jagged memories soften when reviewed

and

where careless words no longer sting
life was fumbling foreplay
in path to this tender bliss


it all sound so apathetic and despondent...

not despairing... not caring...

it feels like me and i wish i wrote it. Let's transfer ownership of this poem, Roy.




(((bathe in smoothly flowing poisons of my mind)))
