Meant to Mention

A Poem by A Lone Creative Nomad

Phone ringing loudly but I can't hear a thing

I'm spinning so fast

Who would have known that those twenty seconds

Could have shattered this world just like glass

Like fire, like burning, this pain that's within

It's growing, it's dying, it's growing again

And I can't quit shaking but I'll keep on faking a smile,

And I won't let them see

That I have feeling too and feel like I died with you.

 

Look at her, isn't she strong?

If only half of them knew.

That I'm torn apart, I'm starved and I'm parched,

And can cry, just like they do

Now my only friend is regret

And I can't kill it yet

It seems to be part of life now

Because it seems I never said to you

The words heard by oh so few

And hope somehow you knew

I love you

 

Seeing your face in my dreams and I wake up,

Craving more

Because the world's so hypocritical, and you're so unforgettable

I'll keep my heart nailed to the floor

I'm drowning, slowly, choked by my own tears

It's dying, it's dying, the shred of hope that I had left

God why'd you have to do this to all of these people?

Why not just take me?

I have feelings too, and I'd rather die than feel like I do

 

Look at her, isn't she strong?

If only half of them knew.

That I'm torn apart, I'm starved and I'm parched,

And can cry, just like they do

Now my only friend is regret

And I can't kill it yet

It seems to be part of life now

Because it seems I never said to you

The words heard by oh so few

And hope somehow you knew

I love you

 

Oh God, oh God, what were you thinking?

Oh God, oh God, can't you see I'm not strong?

Oh God, oh God, will you kill my pain too?

Or is that just reserved for the things I love?

 

Look at her, isn't she strong?

If only half of them knew.

That I'm torn apart, I'm starved and I'm parched,

And can cry, just like they do

Now my only friend is regret

And I can't kill it yet

It seems to be part of life now

Because it seems I never said to you

The words heard by oh so few

And hope somehow you knew

I love you

I like the rhyme scheme, and I think this would make a very good song. Actually, it reminds me of the kind of music I like to listen to. I'd love to pick this apart and give you my favorite lines, but I loved every line, and think they would lose meaning if I seperated them from each other.

So just take my own words. :)
