PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Don't ask me why

I don't know why

Probably because I've known you before

It seem like my soul has out grown this place

as if it's to big to be confined to any definite space

I've been here before

I've seen it before

I've felt it before

It doesn't surprise me, though it still hurts

That's my tragic flaw I guess

It's what holds me hear

I feel old

I mean my soul feels old

if there is such a thing

I think I fucked it up again

How many times until I learn

I fell in love

And so did you

But not with me

So I'll wait again

Until my time is done

We are far to different

you and I

It could never work out

but I have determination

And I still can't let go

when you look in the mirror

Do you like what you see

I know you don't

your not real

no one here is

I saw once

the thing that you see inside you

All the things that everyone sees

I couldn't stand it

I took the mirror off the wall

And I slammed it down

And it broke

It shattered into what seemed to be a million pieces

Although I'm sure it wasn't

That's how you make me feel

when you look at me

And you don't see what I see

It's like the mirror is my heart

And the pain that this brings

feels like a million tiny slivers of glass

I broke it because i see the flaws in the world

And in myself

I notice things

All the little things

those that normally go unnoticed

And for some reason

I have yet to know why

They bother me

They force me to hate them

But even the hate of a thousand flaws

can't stop me from loving

Maybe that's why

I can't help but love everyone

just like you I guess

So maybe we have something in common

But you show it

I choose to hold it

It hurts too much to show love

When you see what they show you

but your different

your beauty's surpass your flaws

And my love still won't show its scattered face

so I'll come back

in the next life perhaps

And we can do this familiar dance once again
