Something New

Something New

A Poem by Jeremy Michael White

Started off strange with a little mystique

Loneliness and pain wrapped in plastic

Holding in and suffocating

Thinking it is right

But it'll only hurt you more

 

Then after so long enslaved in silence

Sanity's gone, Reason sits in blindness

Scared as hell and halfway shaking

This may not be right

But I can't be hurt any more

 

Oh, I know that there have been subtle hints you've given

And I know why you're so prone to hesitation

Oh I know that this may get rough but I know we'll pull through

And it'd be something new unlike anything before

 

Let me be clear yes I know it'll end

We'll go our ways ready to start again

Memories will not be fading

It could have been wrong

But we'd had never known before

 

There were some days that were really dark

Sitting alone on a swing at the park

Taking space until day is breaking

But it wasn't wrong

Forget the dark because the beauty grew more

 

Oh, I know that there have been subtle hints you've given

And I know why you're so prone to hesitation

Oh I know that this may get rough but I know we'll pull through

And it'd be something new unlike anything before

 

I always remember you and I hope you'll remember me

We'll reflect on those greatest of times wherever we shall be

I'll still sing my songs for you even if stranded out to sea

Those molecules of memory will dance for eternity

 

But when the most beautiful of planets and stars do die

We'll still have made our imprint up in the sky, yeah

 

Oh, I know that there have been subtle hints you've given

And I know why you're so prone to hesitation

Oh I know that this may get rough but I know we'll pull through

And it'd be something new unlike anything before

There is always trepidation when starting something new and excitement when getting to know one another and heartache when it ends.


Isn't life meant to be about compromise...?

"But when the most beautiful of planets and stars do die
We'll still have made our imprint up in the sky, yeah" - JMW Love this!!!
