Falling

Folder: 
Added in 2011

There’s a strangeness encasing my reality,
A bitter taste that plagues my sanity
Somehow I feel like I’m disappearing,
A brief liberation from the constance of leering
The person I once knew inside has gone,
I guess in this place my own feelings are wrong
My heart has been clouded by incessant lies
Now my throat bares the scars of my naïve cries
There was a time long ago I thought I could fly
But I realize now, it’s a barren sky
Don’t hold back, please let this moment end,
You never loved me, you don’t have to pretend
I’m letting go of you, so just let me down
I don’t need you to save me, you were never around
With eyes wide open, in the silence I’ve died
It’s ok; don’t cry you can tell everyone you tried
Just like a bird that must fall when they fledge,
No one will know I didn’t just slip from the edge.
This is our little secret, the last we will share,
No one has to know you were ever there.

Sorrowful & Beautiful

Just like a bird that must fall when they fledge, No one will know I didn't slip from the edge. I LOVE this poem and that particular phrase,you are *unique*..ahhh The painful self recriminations I know them all so well, the very same you speak of..shoulders up and chin high girl, here is an excerpt from one of mine I will leave you with.......Your time for love may not be now
but it will find you someday,somehow,
And when that love you're hoping for
smiles and walks through your lifes door
You will look back to your past
and finally know THIS love will last,
So look long for he is short to stay
he will teach you to love another day..

BIG Hugglesssss: Your Friend raven-hair

You always know exactly what

You always know exactly what to say. I love your poetic addition and I know it will. Patience has never been a great part of my personality lol. My head will always be held high no matter how much my heart may be falling apart. I will never let a man know he has chipped my defenses. The Marine in me will forever protect me from my enemies. Huggles My friend! I MISS YOU!
