Point Of View

Point Of View

A Poem by Zi

This is how you see it, true
But that's not how I'm seeing you
You leave me here, with no choice
I scream your name, but have no voice
The world keeps turning while my heart's yearning
My soul is burning, but hey, what's new?

This is how I see it now
My lies so deep I just might drown
You weren't there when I had strife
So my salvation's a cold steel knife
Your heart is beating, my pulse is fleeting
And as I bleed I just think, how?

This is how it looks to be
It seems my heart just won't be free
You're never there when I need hope
My lifeline's merely a hanging rope

No one said this world was fair
So now I sit in cold dark air
I'm having trouble hanging on
And thus I wrote this pretty song

Tomorrow's just another day
And you won't be there anyway
So tonight I take a final step
It's been so long since I have slept...

Hm. An interesting twist on what I was expecting from the title. I guess I should stop judging books by their covers. Good rhyme, good emotions. Good job.
