PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

As I stand dangerously close

To the edge

And oxygen suddenly

Escapes you

I dive

As you lunge towards me

Hoping to save my life,

And I am gone

Before you even realize

What's just happend...

Because all that I am

Is dead already --

As I walked,

Blind in my dreams

Life had my eyes wide open...

I walked around you

Deleriously happy,

Begging for someone to set me

Free.

Pleading for you to ingest my world

And make it your own --

All I got was

Whole hearted lies

And shallow truths.



You couldn't hear my starvation

And with a warped sense of the word

I say "thank" you --

Of all the things I believed in

It was you...



And there I am

Searching for a familiar face

Cause nothin's goin' right.

But starting over is not an option anymore.

They say,

Beacuse of you

I was a certain kind

Of man...

People just won't let things be

What they are...



Of all the minds

In all the brains

In all the world

You had to pick mine...
