Calling On You

By maddin foxxxy

I'm calling
your name again.......

I didn't mean
to yell it at loud
while they
were listening

I needed you to
appear....
In that instant
when my craving
was boiling
and I needed a hug

Most of them
were blaming me
for last night's trouble
Most of them
were pointing at me
as I needed to hide

But there's no space left
in this earth
for guilty fools

Everyone seems to already
have
a better hiding place
than mine

See
my crumbled walls
and watch
my see-through window
of black

You needed to be there....
for me to forget
for my own well being
for my selfishness
you needed to be there....

I'm not calling
your name again...

There's no space left
in this earth
for dreaming shit

Images are not
to hold
Fantasies are not
for healing cold

But...you needed to be there...
for you to forgive
what I couldn't
for you to remind
of what I wouldn't

I didn't mean to call for you
when it comes to cleaning
dirt

You're filthy as I
come to be
You're foolish as earth
equaly is
You fake it the same
as me
But you breath it....you breath it
and ExHaLe it from here
... the air becomes free...
You breath it.... you breath it
and take it for me.

    I just flat out love your work. While I was reading this, I noticed that, though your poem was making me feel melancholy, I was smiling. I was empathizing with your pain; but I was simultaneously delighting in your insights. Just fantastic.
