PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Plans of long ago,

Patiently applied,

In a bandage tear

Are coming alive



Theres no restraint,

Fractions that resist

An unfolding plan

This Pop-Up is red



As they turn the next page i wince

The newsmen says the bomb missed

And isn't that a lie

Cause i see alot of people died



And your face on the cover

..your crying mother

Those last words are clear to me

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

Those last words-

I don't know

Lets talk about something else

The last words should not be

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else



I talked to you,

Patiently i tried

Not a bandage tear

Worth coming alive



Theres my new pain,

Packing in my chest

Long you just reclined

Now the chair is red



As the grey deathships soar i wince

The newsmen says the bomb missed

And isn't that a lie

Cause i see alot of people died



And your face and your body

..a crying stranger

What you said cycles through me

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

Stangers' mutters are sad but

I don't know

Why he says "how could this be?"

When this land was forewarned

But lots said,

Lets talk about something else

I don't know..i feel so many shades of numb



You called it crazy

You said it couldn't be

Step by step came about

Facts laid before your mind



You called it crazy

You said it couldn't be

I was lost on you

I tried to believe



You never came around

You'll never come around

Again because now

This land is red with you

This land is red with you...



As the new railroad comes i think,

The newsmen say this brings peace

And isn't that a lie

Cause i see a fence and i see death



And your face on the cover

..a crying shadow

Your repeated words inside me

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

Those old words, those last words

I don't know

Lets talk about something else

The last words should not be

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

The last words didnt have to be

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

The last words didn't have to be

I don't know,

Lets talk about something else

Those last words didn't have to be..
