Array ( [sid] => 42922 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Today Is Better Then Yesterday [time] => 2004-04-12 15:42:22 [hometext] => I wrote this poem in math class today, it took me about an hour. It's basically about my past relationship-- now that I look back on it I can see all the different phases. Anyway, please check it out and comment so I can edit it later on! :) [bodytext] => Today will be better then yesterday
You promised me so
Please don't wake me up
I need this sweet dreaming
Sit at my bed
Make sure I keep breathing...

This is when I'm alive
Nothing will hold me back
I'll dream
And in my dream
We're together again
You're so perfect
So beautiful
So untouchable
You'll pick me up when I fall
And hold my hand when I'm scared
You promised you'd always be there
Nothing could ever part us
You have my trust, my love... my life

I wake up from my dream
And long for you
F*ck you
For making me so vulnerable
My heart beats so fast
My eyes swell up with empty tears
I call for you
I've been screaming for you for so long
That my lips are blistered and bleeding
My vision is gone
You promised you'd be here
You promised today would be better...

I'm left to blame
I believed your lies
I had no other choice
Everytime you would talk
I'd lose myself in you
In your mind
Now I'm the one left at fault
I'm the one left lingering in the past

I was always leaning on you
When you left I fell
I fell so hard
It was so painful
I searched for stable ground
My search led me to you
I was in your sight
But in fear of falling with me
You turned your head
You've gotten so far
You didn't want to be held back
With fresh blood dripping
From my razorblades cuts
And tears dripping
From my tear-stained cheeks
I told you I understood
You promised everything would be better
As you silently walked away...

As time went by
The promises remained empty
Your calls were so distant and short
'It's a whole different world here'
You would repeat
I didn't f*cking care!
This is my world
And you were supposed to be in it

But now I have to tell you
I've found stable ground
This time i found it in myself
I'm stronger then I ever was before
But still from time to time
I'm weakened
When I see your face
And remember your touch
I'm still left with
Empty dreams

Thanks for reading!

Today Is Better Then Yesterday

Today will be better then yesterday
You promised me so
Please don't wake me up
I need this sweet dreaming
Sit at my bed
Make sure I keep breathing...

This is when I'm alive
Nothing will hold me back
I'll dream
And in my dream
We're together again
You're so perfect
So beautiful
So untouchable
You'll pick me up when I fall
And hold my hand when I'm scared
You promised you'd always be there
Nothing could ever part us
You have my trust, my love... my life

I wake up from my dream
And long for you
F*ck you
For making me so vulnerable
My heart beats so fast
My eyes swell up with empty tears
I call for you
I've been screaming for you for so long
That my lips are blistered and bleeding
My vision is gone
You promised you'd be here
You promised today would be better...

I'm left to blame
I believed your lies
I had no other choice
Everytime you would talk
I'd lose myself in you
In your mind
Now I'm the one left at fault
I'm the one left lingering in the past

I was always leaning on you

I fell so hard
It was so painful
I searched for stable ground
My search led me to you

You've gotten so far
You didn't want to be held back
