Defying My Own Gravity Date: Wednesday, 1st October 2003 @ 03:45:00 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: HelixGreg The creation of greed is stifled Exempting all who approach in glee Happiness and sorrow are stapled They stare for so long but they don’t see A quarter of my being is daft The other is trying to release The next follows its own fearful path The last is brilliant and a tease All come forward now, like a magnet Huge crowds search for the finish line Seizing to vomit their tears in a set I try to help everyone but its just mine I can’t approach myself to understand Letting in my breath is harder to do The thoughts sift through my hand like sand When all I try to present is the truth, true?
