[hometext] => #2 in my Avril series, inspired by Complicated. About an old friend who was always watching herself, always fake, and yet everyone followed her.
[bodytext] => I remember you How you always had to look just right And all the times you put up a fight I loved you so much Tragically perfect in every way We all followed you like orphaned strays I needed you most Gave up whatever you asked of me Always what you wanted me to be But I hated you How you made me your faithful lapdog I thought it was real, seeing through fog What were you always crying for? Why'd you have to be so adored? Heart on your sleeve, mask on your face Then disappeared without a trace It was nothing new The same old thing you always gave us The same old ways you always played us Just another dreamer Couldn't stand to be less than the best Stood so much higher than all the rest With so much to prove You could never lay back and relax Always aware of just how you act But I caught a glimpse Of a soul that struggled just to shine Beneath the sadness in your mind Why did you change when they walked in? Became something you'd never been You complicate me 'cause you're fake I built you up and watched you break I remember you Always making something out of nothing I was there for you through everything I resented you Never comfortable in your own skin Wishing to be someone else again I couldn't stand you Watched you lose yourself more every day Till from reality you turned away I cannot love you Broke too many times, you're missing pieces But I still feel you in all my bends and creases [comments] => 6 [counter] => 182 [topic] => 44 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Nostalgic )

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. ©
