Array ( [sid] => 43696 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I AM FOR YOU [time] => 2004-04-17 22:47:47 [hometext] => I'm lost. Where are the boundaries? Which friends are true? What's forever? When will it end? Who are you anyway? [bodytext] => My life for you, to die for you
You are my everything
I feel the passion tride and true
For you, my heart does sing

Extending from so deep within
A feeling oh so strong
It truly hurts to care so much
For you I sing my song

Each task I take on just for you
Or is it just because?
Do I speak of busy bees
Or alligators' jaws?

One side makes me tall and grand
Much as this burning urge
An urge, a sense of purpose
Can not cease to emerge

Another side will make you shrink
To miniature size
Suddenly I'm humbled, meak
The teardrops fill my eyes

I have so many impulses
The kind the stomach feels
An instinct that lies deep inside
That nothing quite conceals

It only hurts to bottle up
And give the cat my tongue
Frustrating to feel so nieve
My soul does not feel young

All that I do, it's just for you
Who are you anyway?
Vaguely I pick you out now
But that's just for today

It's only spring for I'm brand new
I'm at the starting line
I'm sick of searching for it all
It's daylight savings time

I want to hurry up and wait
Yet I yearn to cherish youth
The precious moments scurry by
In time, I'll know the truth

The passion's as impatient
As I am to break free
I long to run amok and breathe
To know of what will be

For wasting treasured time is wrong
I'm growing close to frost
And I don't want to plant a seed
If soon it will be lost

It seems absurd and frivolous
To even try and fathom
The kind of curse I could unleash
If feelings, I don't have 'em

To speak of buzzing busy bees
Gives me an awful scare
I'm going to take great caution
And of the end be 'ware. [comments] => 7 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 61 [informant] => liquidsunshine [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )
I AM FOR YOU

I see an urge of expression flowing here, effortless, even if it may have took a great period to pen, this is how it reads, undulating and slightly wistful.

"The precious moments scurry by
In time, I'll know the truth"

These two lines shouted out at me, with their moment and your perception. Apart from a few niggly spelling errors, this is as good a write as i'll read today.
Thanks for sharing.

So much going on here. Obviously you're going through some kind of questioning and working hard to find the answers. Some great use of language. Love the line about giving the cat your tongue.

Ah, the questions. What a strange thing it is growing up...
But I think this apprehension always goes away eventually. We just have to find our strength and our wisdom. Bits of it hang around behind each corner...

Keep up the good work!

I really liked the 2nd stanza, and I loved
It only hurts to bottle up
And give the cat my tongue
Frustrating to feel so nieve
My soul does not feel young.
I can totally relate to you, girl! I wish I could tell the future also, so that I wouldn't waste my time. Beautiful and heartfelt. I enjoyed it, as usual!
