The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

So hard to forget those dreams old, with glory much and feels so true.

That ancient dream, wed with the blonde and the blue.

Rarely and yet comes back to me.

And it makes me wonder what did it see?

Fairly faint fondness for that shade.

Why do I let my memories rape

Me, my mind, my heart like this?

God damn it all! I don't need this!

Give me rest, I want my peace!

Sooth my mind and let me be.

I do not want to think of that,

Or even less than what?

Bloodyhell, this is tormentuous!

I like to think but can't get my rest

from these thoughts I need to kill,

Perhaps with Captain I should swill?

She is right, the thoughts must perish,

rebuilt myself but a hole exists.

To fill this hole I cannot seem,

and yet till then will be no team.

I know what I want, and what to do.

And yet I think it requires you.

But not right now, and not right here,

Though I'll tell you when the time is near.

Now inwardly I'll flush these things,

and outwardly I'll soar on wings.

You'll understand and I'll tell you this,

that ancient dream I do not miss.

And old flings can be dismissed.

Just don't bring up rememberances

too much, and then you may not know

how much I want to tell you so,

tell you of how I feel, and what I think,

whose heart I'd steal.

Something so different and never the same

As any of my ancient flames,

except but light and airy there

and flights of fancy to neverwhere

It's nice and happy and I think it's true,

But don't you know,

I thnk

I think

That I love you.

Captain thoughts to kill and dream

the hole to fill with formless mass,

then pave the pain to stop its spread

and watch the pennites tread.

 

(For a poem spawned from "nowhere," this came out quite nice Xaious. I like the sense of struggle in the words leading up to the conclusion, as you relayed the difficulty of breaking free from a stifled mindset well.)
