Again

Tripping down memory lane...

my feet less sure than before.

Your lies are still beautiful to me...

I just don't want them anymore. 

My hands move on their own accord

touching everything they can...

except my unfamiliar self

but you know exactly who I am. 

My knees beg to touch the ground, 

so that I may see...

in accordance to our two parts 

you are so much bigger than me.

You say my name smooth like lace,

but not another word...

is drowned out by my tempo,

because I am already yours.

You asked me to believe in you...

in a way way that only a lover could.

Then you ripped my heart right out of me 

the way a lover never should.

So I stand here now in front of you...

heartless and unafraid,

of the price that comes with loving you

because I have already paid. 

Two victims of a truly dark world...

we can me broken together.

We can push, scream, lie, and fight...

we can be this way forever.

You are the only thing I know is real,

and your reality is sharp...

I want to be so deep inside,

I would spend a thousand years tearing you apart

and in the sickest way I ache for you

in this storm that never ends...

because when it come to loosing you of feeling pain,

I would let you hurt me again.

A other great poem, and again you touched me with your words of deep thought.

Hard to decide which hurts worse, the pain of the relationship or the pain of it ending. This was great. I really enjoyed reading this today.

[Jake Donald Stephens]

I think love is when the person's well being is more important to you than your own. But I went through some terrible experiences before figuring that out. There was this one girl who i kept taking back again and again, so that each time she could do the same thing to me again... and again. So now, I don't do that anymore. No three strikes; no two strikes. ONE strike, and that's it.
But then there is the matter of being TRAPPED in a relationship..........ugh.
Thought provoking poem, as usual.

So simple yet so easy to relate too if you've ever found yourself in a bad relationship. Love how you started it off too with these lines too;

Your lies are still beautiful to me

I think this line could some up the world of love in it's entirety.

[Ian Gilmour]

We've all wrestled with emotions like this before and your poem embraces the insecurities and the fear through a great understanding of tone. This prompts the question, is love more powerful than hate? Is hate more powerful than love? What is the fine line between loving somebody and hating somebody?

[Jessica Lynn Polley]

That is exactly the question that made me write this...some relationships are just so volatile that the only reason to stay together is the pain of separating, but if that pain is greater than what you endure everyday than the love must be stronger right? The girl in this poem is changed forever, she will never get back what she was because she has become a monster like him...because of him. So now they are the same and he is all she has...she loves him in spite of the fact that she hates him. So to me there is no line.
