A Thousand Love Songs And None Fit You

By ExaCute

I'll sing until my heart bleeds
On to paper razors
Like the words you said when you
Left me behind
I'll close my eyes
And pretend to not be wasting your time
But I know everything is only a show to you
Place me into the dark and even then
I may see better
A light that burns deep within
Caged down like an animal
Its a pity you can't see it as I do
I'll take in each breath
And say these rhymes over again
To let them fall short to any
Who would hear
Why leave my vocal shards
In the tea to cool their day
Could I really be that foolish
And hurt you any way

If you like me as me
Then the image will sure to make you bleed
In sorrows that can't be explained in words
I'm to far gone from you
So saving a soul
Isn't worth the saving
When you haven't got one at all
Black lipstick and eyeliner
Never suited me well
I'm just a circus freak
Left in my own personal hell
So go ahead and try and brake my cage
There will still always be the chains
Holding me back
So let me say

Call it quite to a heart that can't beat
For very long
Under pressure
I'm a crumbling wall
You can try and put me back together
But you can't stop my falling
Into the deep blue ocean
That are tears that stain my cheeks
Their rapids leaving scars
That run deeper
Then the lies you feed me
Yet its funny I'm still here
To count the days
That pass me by
Each day a reminder
Of more lies I can't
Myself hold inside
So let me say

I've written a thousand love songs
I've sang them all for you
But none of them ever seem to
Fit the portrait that I see is you
Your neither a devil nor and angel
But I've written a thousand love songs
I've sang them all for you
But none of them ever seem to
Fit the portrait that I see is you
None will ever fit the
Portrait I see in you

    People will change over time. Not sure this was really love though and maybe that is why it never quite fit? Cheers and welcome to DP!

    This poem agonizes and bleeds a story all on it's own. This is the broken poetry that appeals to me. The last lines inspired a hope of sorts. It describes a dejected and demoralized picture of the faniful and perfect ones we make for others. It can be hard finding out that the ones we have fallen so far for don't realize or don't share the love that we give out. Enjoyed most thuroughly. Thanks for the post, and welcome to DP!
