Array ( [sid] => 59817 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Because I've Loved You [time] => 2004-08-11 22:55:12 [hometext] => I dunno, it could be qualified as dark or even suicide, but right now, with the music I've got, to me it feels sad. So that's what I'm calling it, [bodytext] => Isn't it great to be this fake,
they can't see all I've come to be.
Throw your stones against my body,
until my vision of you is bleary.

I'm weakening inside but it's all I hide,
can you see anything real inside of me?
It makes me cry, how hard I've tried,
my strength is fading as I backslide.

Isn't it great to know it's all just a show,
I'd give this dance with death a chance in a breath.
Beat me down with your words until I collapse,
we'll just blame it on all my mishaps.

Tear asunder my heart and rip it apart,
your version, symbolic of your intrusion.
Break what strength is left in my bones,
leave me with only empty gravestones.

Cry crimson, eat poison,
break the bread before you're finally dead.
Pardon me while I begin to bleed,
don't ever think you've caused this evil deed.

Isn't it great to be this fake,
say goodbye but don't ask why.
I'm finishing this for all of you,
it was all because I've loved you. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 32 [informant] => waos [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

this was awesome Kara. I really liked the line structure you had going on two-line sentences and the rhymes in the line that was really cool and as I told you, you of all people are not fake.
