[bodytext] => It seems that I’m starting to fall again
Beneath the excitement now and then
A shadow, a hail of wearisome feelings
This pain, it hits me and I’m reeling

Nothing to do, this atmosphere is tainted
The scene is lost, the heaven I painted
Sweet summer’s taste, stale on my lips
Everything else, cold on my fingertips

The clock is sporting many hands
The seconds drags, as if it never lands
Looking for my cure in all of the wrong places
Searching for a certain light in hundreds of faces

All it takes is a minute with you
And all of the world can continue to do
What it does everyday, what it does to the time
We’ll watch the clouds shift. It’ll be sublime

It’s been 2 hours, but I know that can’t be true
Because all of this time I’ve been walking with you
Why has the time gone so suddenly fast?
Why is it that moments like this cannot last?

So today is finally ending and tomorrow will come soon
More tedious moments, morning, night and noon
I only wish that time would stop and that you would stay
Because tomorrow will bring another monotonous day [comments] => 2 [counter] => 157 [topic] => 2 [informant] => Allofyourtears [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Monotony

It seems that I’m starting to fall again
Beneath the excitement now and then
A shadow, a hail of wearisome feelings
This pain, it hits me and I’m reeling

Sweet summer’s taste, stale on my lips
Everything else, cold on my fingertips

More tedious moments, morning, night and noon
I only wish that time would stop and that you would stay
Because tomorrow will bring another monotonous day
