Array ( [sid] => 96240 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lack of [time] => 2005-05-30 07:42:07 [hometext] => Assignment: You're best work. [bodytext] => The need, the can’t
The conflict and anguish
I die when I watch you
A ways away

It’s not like I can’t say
‘Hey, let’s go out today’
It feels more complicated
Than that

And I know you feel the same way I do too
Don’t you?

Perfection is in a moment
The moments I watch waltz off
In your shoes
Simplicity is in the knowledge
And fear in the lack of action
What I want and what I do
Are never the same

Years of seeing
Years of watching
Waiting
Wanting
Haunting
Hating
Knowing
The Unknown
Hating
The truth
Denial
Infantile
It’s just another
Small smile
Sly while
Needing
Having
Holding
Nothing
The things
I can’t take
The stuff
I don’t want
I do
I don’t
It’s just…

I melt in your presence
I die in your eyes
I fall in your fragrance
I trip in your smile
I’m loud when you’re around
Then I’m quiet too
I’m so careless when it comes to you
I’m in denial
This isn’t tangible
I hate to admit
I know the truth
I hate it too
Oh god, I knew it
I love you [comments] => 1 [counter] => 171 [topic] => 2 [informant] => saveMEfromMYSELF [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
