Unable to forget the dedication of the ones that made me this way
Meeting this girl is just another reminder of how far gone I am
After an exciting night making out and getting to know each other
I’ve already excused myself from any potential she might possess or offer
The anger I carry inside for this human being is completely unfounded
Yet every time I look into her dark brown eyes I want her more and more
I need to pretend this never happened and ignore everything that breathes
Tuning out brings me further from a humanity that I used to believe in
A loyalty I watched nurture me in life has become so easy to walk away from
And there she goes again wandering into my thoughts without invitation
It’s back to answering questions if everything is alright and me nodding yes
Numb and confused for so long I don’t need the chemical sunrise anymore
Being quiet is truth and everything else already rests in the grave

Human complexity, our responses to life and all that it throws at us, sometimes even renders us unrecognisable to ourselves,but as with everything in life there is a process some within our control and others that highlight just how subject to the forces of Nature we are however much we try to disregard this, there is solace and tangibility in quiet and the processes will eventually take us to a more hopeful dawn of change,written in brutal openness and honesty.

really good again duff.
So much in this write I can relate to.especially the line "tuning out.."
Each line could be a story in its self.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
