Array ( [sid] => 79675 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => For Far Too Long [time] => 2005-01-12 23:22:40 [hometext] => It's just something I just wrote... something that's kinda dark... sad... a self struggle... maybe even suicide... all these things and more rolled into one. [bodytext] => Life is like a jigsaw puzzle…
A mystery… if you will.
There are those who seek to solve the riddle.
Find the absolution… but still…
You must try and find an end to a puzzle…
Where a few pieces are missing...

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart…
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside…
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself…
I'd do it in a heartbeat… babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself…
For far too long.

Here and there… there and here.
You’ve looked everywhere.
You’re wondering… if you’ll ever find them?
Maybe if… you look deep down inside…
You’ll find the absolution there?
The missing pieces to the jigsaw…
And the mystery of the ages will be solved.
But still… it’s like a thriller with some loose pages gone.

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart…
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside…
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself…
I'd do it in a heartbeat… babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself…
For far too long.

Maybe… one day… you’ll put it all together.
Reveal a whole new picture of your life.
As the pieces of the jigsaw… finally drop into place.
Piece by piece… bit by bit…
All the pieces of your life fit.

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart…
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside…
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself…
I'd do it in a heartbeat… babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself…
For far too long.

The mystery is finally solved…
The absolution has finally come.
The questions finally answered…
The jigsaw is finally done.

For far too long…
You’ve been punishing yourself…
For the actions of others in your life.
For the vile and hideous things that have been done.
Things that are so unforgivable…
You wonder… how you’ll ever move on?

If I could take all of your hurting… all of your pain…
All of these things away from your mind… your body... your soul...
You know… I would!
I'd do it in a heartbeat… babe!
Even if it meant… you lived and I died!
Living free of all the pain and strife…
Is long over due in your life.
It's been that way...
For far too long. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 187 [topic] => 48 [informant] => kidpoet_213 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
