Your words ring clear with your intentions.
Love is mearly the slowest form of suicide.
I'm so good at being melodramatic--
but sooner or later i'll be exposed (you know how much i hate living a lie)

They've stopped me before, but now I'm just wearing my heart on my sleeve.
Is this really so hard to believe?
Once again, i've failed you (but failure's an excuse)
Have you ever seen a true smile?

I'm so good at being melodramatic--
but sooner or later i'll be exposed (you know how much i hate living a lie)
this lack of control...we're still living where we don't want to be.
you can't feed on my guilt forever. eventually we must fade.
(scream--no one will hear)

They've stopped me before, but now I'm just wearing my heart on my sleeve.
Is this really so hard to believe?
Once again, i've failed you (but failure's an excuse)
Have you ever seen a true smile?

This house is begging for an argument to break the silence.
Break the torture.
Break me.

They've stopped me before, but now I'm just wearing my heart on my sleeve.
Is this really so hard to believe?
Once again, i've failed you (but failure's an excuse)
Have you ever seen a true smile?

Do you know what it feels like to wake up (When your intentions were otherwise?)

You say that this one sucks? I think it's pretty good actually. I am impressed. I think you used great images, and you were honest with yourself in this peom too.

I liked this stanza. It struck me. Great imagery, it really expresses strong feelings. And I understand what you mean here.

Once again, i've failed you (but failure's an excuse)
Have you ever seen a true smile?

I liked these lines too. It's thought provoking, and intelligent.

This house is begging for an argument to break the silence.

Great line. Very creatively expressed. This poem was very original and creative. I like different voices like yours.

Be True,
zenmind
