Array ( [sid] => 134725 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Beauty in Two Faces [time] => 2007-05-26 22:53:56 [hometext] => come to think... poetry is the most amazing form of self expression! [bodytext] => when i think of getting older
its a thought i cannot bare
i cannot think of me and myself
wrinkled skin and greying hair

i think about being lonely
push the scissors in my skin
if i open the garden gate
is it possible to get in

and if you try to push it
will the wither in the sand
or will it open wide and let you in
and never close again

im busy waging wars on myself
as i close my tired eyes
and being with me forever
to me, its no surprise

ive been told that i am nothing
and im willing to believe
that once im in the garden
ill be begging you to leave

here i am, just wasting
every moment that i have
and i cannot begin my life here
around without a plan

so im planning now to live my life
alone without a God
douse myself with music
and dabble in the pot

but here i am to beg you
for a third and final stand
can i open the door
if i open the door
would you vow to let me in

and im here and i am thinking
but im thought to be so thin
a shallow human being
no thoughts go out or in

when really i bleed deeper
than the porus double sea
so now im here, vehemently
begging you to see

can you tell who i am right now
can you tell im rife with pain
so now i open my soul to you
im letting you now in

so take a dive and think of life
and wallow in my true
because no matter how much i fake it
i dont wanna have no "you"

so drifting, i lay final
on this warm and salty sea
begging heavy eyes
and open hearts
to see the real me

i know you might not like it
its a burden that i bare
but theres something more behind these eyes
and shaggy rocker hair

im here now for a reason
but for what i am unsure
for now, ill save my soul with myself
just me and my guitar

here i am and im allright
though i am alone
but i know the people looking at me
will never hold their own

so other than my crazy
can you see the side i hide
lets just say my lifes a rollercoaster
dare to take a ride

off i go to bleed again
now with open minds
funny how writing these down
just brought me back to life

now i end this poem
as i jump into the beats
of my favorite punk rock CD
cause i cant stay in my seat

but look at my other side
the violin at hand
ive been playing it for 6 whole years
ive come to hate the band

so see, ive got a new life
though it begs to split in two
but i think for now ill spare myself
and try to find my "you"

read these lyrics nicely
please try to catch the rhyme
it will most be more depressing
when you read it next time

but i try to keep the bright side
of my window late at night
cause as i sit here, inside i know
ive got to stop this fight

im done and i am sitting
in a pile of my own blood
but joy's whats bleeding through me
and now it is a flood [comments] => 1 [counter] => 183 [topic] => 61 [informant] => xXdeadXpoetXx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 6 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )
