what I know
By openureyes
If I could possibly bare it, I would sit down and write it all. Id start
with the happiness that was stolen from me so young. Then on to the confusion
and desperation turned rebellion. The paths I chose to take. The opportunities
I missed and dreams I tossed away. I would write of the of the love I
thought I knew. The hearts I broke. The lives I ran, through the fun and
excitement that soon turned to destruction. The nightmares that were reality.
The insanity that was all to apparent. It is too painful. So I write piece
by piece the memories I choose to. I speak of only what’s tolerable.
I take that shit and shove it in the closet, kicking the door closed. I
have no use for it yet. I focus solely on the current pain to distract
from the past.
I refuse to be backed up in that corner again. Once in awhile life is so
fucking good. Sometimes I cant believe I'm still alive and beautiful and
so is the world. Still there are days I would like my vices back. I would
love my vices back. The familiarity of that comfortable misery. The wickedness
that comes all to natural. What a dilemma. So I go on. Looking for the
answers, finding a few more reasons to love my self each day. We discover
new things . I am not as fragile or as strong as Id like to be. Its is
what it is. So I write it how I choose to see it. I write what I allow
my self to feel and the emotions that take over without my permission.
Maybe I could possibly move some one even once with my words. If nothing
else its great to hear, ‘I get it‘, now and then.
So I continue to reveal the drama and madness in my head
Think way too long and hard about things of not much relevance
Learn time and again that I am not the center of the universe...
...and once in awhile life IS beautiful... who knew?

for some reason your sn always reminds me of Six AM's song. This sounds like all the makings of poetry.

Unbelivably eloquent. Undeniably relevant to my frame of refrence as well. Having experienced the raw emotion invoked after reading this profound glimpse into a strangers mind has been an unexpected gift to a fellow traveller of the confusing and often tragic path our lives can take as a consequence of our existance.
