Beautiful Nightmare Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) Pull my insides out so I can breath, Your presence is taking over me. And when I'm down, your always there, And you've shown me, that i can care. Thoughts of you walk through my mind. And when your with me it's then i find, That being happy is no longer a task As you have thrown away that mask. Edited October 26, 2005 by Beautiful Nightmare
Mira Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 A sweet little gem Arwen, beautiful in its simplicity and elegance. If I was Drummondo I would be beyond flattered.
HappyBuddha Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 Very sweet and very accomplished. I like this piece I especially like how the first two lines feel stereotypically "depressing," but you then defy the reader's expectations by inverting the message.
drummondo Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Jagged lines; an image framed in red, A motionless, emotion-full embrace, Same bored, dull expressions all the while. Sneak twice, a glance; a slight turn of the head, Enjoy the changing contours of his face, Treating you with your own loving smile, Trying hard to catch your eye or heart, Even if it tears his own apart. After this exchange, exclaim your thoughts; Nearing, now, the point of no return, Delivering your heart, though out of sorts. Maybe he'll just laugh; then you shall learn In laughter - for worse words were never said - Kindness rarely seems to know its place. Each peal exits your heart in single file. Forgive me though, for I shall never jeer, Or give you reason, real or not, to cry. Repeat your movements; sidle up, so near, Every moment, glance from eye to eye. Vocabulary fails us. Leave unsaid Each imperfection, perfect in its place; Release yourself into my arms in style.
Peredhil Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Both very good. Daughter - "Im" should be "I'm".
Beautiful Nightmare Posted October 27, 2005 Author Report Posted October 27, 2005 They say that love hurts- I used to think that too, But i have just figured out It hurts so much more without you. To have is to hold, But i can't hold you now, 'Cause your too far away For me to kiss your brow.
drummondo Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Jumbled lonely thoughts take flight As I think of your smile, Staying up to talk all night, Sneaking glances all the while. Each day I long to know you're there To talk to when I feel alone, To giggle with your flicked out hair, Even giggling when we're on the phone. Grr.. >: )
Beautiful Nightmare Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 My only thoughts are of you In your hands my heart lies true Keep it there forever. Each person has their match You're my perfect catch.
drummondo Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Just imagine once, the perfect dreaM And you will find, inside it, you and I, Saying stuff without having to speaK, Speaking words without having to liE.
Beautiful Nightmare Posted February 6, 2006 Author Report Posted February 6, 2006 I stare into the candlelight,And you dance within the flame,Though you're not here, you're still in sightTo ease my mind, to stop my pain.As the light burns lowLike a setting sun,I close my eyes and you're still thereTo help my fears be over come.
Ozymandias Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 B.N.- One of the reasons I love your poetry is that I can always almost hear music when I read your pieces. These, of course, don't disappoint. :>)
