[bodytext] => Submit myself to willingness I take from you what I will Destroy yourself with innocence Secure that for which you'd kill No one should be half a world away from me I shall let no excuse Control the places I should have been Remove whatever corrupts your senses Forget your troubles with a selfish grin I wish someone would listen to me Checking out from hotel sorrow Driving into the biting breeze You had me at your very hands Now I'm cut down to my knees I wish I could find myself for me Hear the transition as you lie awake Keeping the noise from sad so low Walking away from wonder Remembering is forgetting, didn't we know? I want something just for me The art of growing up Something that has been so horribly lost The we I used to depend on Taking my life with pain, pressing the cost I wish someone could hold on to me The slaughter of feelings The sadness of you This simple disaster destroys me No matter what I choose to do Try not to save yourself You used to be the reason I took my breath Contracting lungs so wonderfully I felt the love inside the warmth You broke me down so beautifully I wish I hadn't lied for you The quiet things all you know of The feelings that you love to hate These words for which I write to you The little possibilities life will create I wish I could keep my feet on the ground Capital letters and heart-crossed promises Letters that scream forever and always Terms of an agreement I never signed Terrible sadness for the rest of my days I wish you could see me now I lied for only you I took my time lying for only you I took my life and threw it around for only you Time took me by the skin, tossed me under Keep my thoughts in my head And my feet on the ground In case this ever happens out of dreams In case I'd rather be dead Closed eyes and roaring sound I lied for only you I took my time for only you I lied for something so destructive Shaking here as I pretend soft words Echo into forever as I sit here Your smile that crashes, your whisper that disturbs [comments] => 2 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

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. ©
