Don't You Love It?

Don't you love it when you finally start to tear?
Don't you love it when everyone starts to stare?
Don't you love it when you can see her but she isn't really there?
Don't you love it when you realize that life isn't fair?

Don't you love it when time goes by so fast?
Don't you love it when your memories are just the past?
Don't you love it when you think that it won't last?
Don't you love it when that smile you wear is a mask?
It's so nice...

I'm so numb that you can't hurt me
Swing another fist and see how tough I can be
So self-centered I killed them all
It didn't even phase me because I walked so tall
It's so nice...
It's so nice...
Think twice.

Don't you love it when you're tearing out her hair?
Don't you love it when she thinks it's all too much to bear?
Don't you love it when you're all alone and you finally care?
Don't you love it when you realize that life isn't fair?

[Rachel DeHart]

I like this. A lot.

Though it does get a little wordie. But beyond that, it is a beautiful poem. :]

[melancholia skies]

No, it's only fabulous when I say it's fabulous, Meredith! And which I do say... Yes it is fabulous. It knocks the words, "Don't you love it?" In your mind with cruelty and sensitivity. It flowed with anger, and passion. I love it. I'ts truly wonderful. Nice work Shane. :)

Shane.
This is fabulous.
I really enjoyed the physical effect you put into this poem, such as the continuing of the same line, repeated, and the sudden break for air in there. I really liked it, and once again, good job. ( :
