Still Life 12-16-2010

Do I still

       plague your dreams

              keeping you awake

                     late into the night?

Do I haunt

       your memory

              with little hope of escape?

Do you

       see me when you

              close your soft, brown eyes,

       hate me when she

              speaks your name

                     so soft and sweet,

       question life

              when I all but fade?

Do you still

       think of me,

              think of me fondly

                     before you say goodnight?

       remember

              the warmth

                     of our sweet caress,

              the security

                     of interwoven fingers,

              the hope of an unknown future?

Do you ever

       think of me,

       wonder where I am

              or how I am doing,

       cry yourself to sleep

              asking God

                     “Why me?”

Do you ever

       think back upon

              the life we shared,

              the life we built,

              the life we promised?

Do you ever?

Would you still?

Well, that's a jackass thing

Well, that's a jackass thing to say. You don't know me or anything about me. What is the purpose behind simply running around the internet spreading hate? In what way are you making the world a better place?

retract

the same purpose as everything. Love and hate are bourgeois classifications of subjective experience( which is hopelessly alienated and therefore defies a label love or hate) The world will be better for knowing this but that was not the intention or a consequence of my comment. Sorry I was probably drunk too. Im sure someone thinks about you, its a stupid thing to say in the first place.
