Fuck If I Know

Days and days go by

All thoughts drifting to the same

A specific gentle kind of pain

 

Days turn to weeks and into years

Who would imagine what could take root

In the time it takes to ripen fruit

 

Left to my own devices

A misunderstanding grows

All while my love flows

 

Forgetting seems the only way

But a pity to say the least

To lay waste to such a beast

Well, I am pain free, so it

Well, I am pain free, so it might be easy for me to say,

But if 'gentle pain' is the trade in for your best try,

I wouldn't complain, or ask why.

 

Buut I do love your writing style.

now that is pain...lol.

 

 

This is the world we live in,

We bring it onto ourselves,

Misunderstanding is common,

As we insist upon relating through cells,

Gone is the face to face contact,

Heart to heart speaking has left,

The pain of our innermost conflicts,

Is bringing us all to our deaths,

The love for oxycodone keeps selling,

The pharmacist's business has boomed,

We sit typing words on a keyboard,

Alone, so abashed, in our rooms.

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

love it!

Such powerful combination of words. Only a few words put together to express so much. Keep it up for sure. I want to see more of this kind; short sentences with selected words to grasp at emotions.
