Don't Throw Rocks At My Glass House

this is a love poem but its a little sad

They told me to be courageous you have to star out a coward. 

I guess I've taken a step in the right direction.

I lost  the power to speak my mind

Along with the strength to tell you no.

They say I've lost my mind,

but I think its just misplaced

Just like all the memories that have been suppressed.

I'll try to tell you but you won't believe me.

I'll lose you in my thoughts 

So I won't have to remember who you are.

Maybe then I can forget

Why I choose to let you down.

Maybe then you'll remember

Why you refuse to let me know.

I won't ever ask 

For what you refuse to tell me.

I'll be misguided

While your misunderstood.

We can be the strangers who fall in and out of love.

While the other dance on the floor boards of our hearts.

We won't realize that all we need

Are the things we refuse to see.

And our tragedy will become their happy ending.

And for once I won't be afraid.

Fabulous. For once, you didn't have excessive grammar problems. :) Actually, this was really good. I liked it. It was a branch from your usual style, and I really like that you went there. I want to see you try your hand at a stanza poem.
