The Tears Run Far

You make me angry I'm upset Your words make my heart skip a beat And for once have a little bit of hope in you and me I would have sailed across the sea Your words so convincing Your lies seemed so true Words no action Saying is not doing and that’s the truth Was it all a dream? Did the conversation ever happen? You don't act upon Make me sad But mostly mad You’re so freaking frustrating Just shut up all I hear is your ******** Spill the beans Next day and change your mind Just save your time Leave out the testify You make me think so hard To the point where I crumble You don't see the reasons why The tears run so dam far Don't you remember? You have no freaking clue what this did to me Anger runs through my heart You make it so dam hard To get on with my life Would you remember me? If I slipped away from my destiny You leave me struggling to breathe Post up all over My face on minds My words becoming prostitution You leave my heart racing Then stand alone Waiting for the bus even as it goes by You leave me holding a pillow at night To my face so tight So no one can see what this caused me Make me feel crazy Over you till you speak Walking up a slope Don't go no where Every time your there I slide back down Into the pit of disappear Just burry me in the ground Leave me there, with shovel in hand Put me down like old Wilson’s dog Let me rot away become part of the tree I lay beneath oh so peace fully Until you come back and breathe me in And there's no escaping this corroded town I'm in

what I like most about this poem is the free riffing you allow your imagination...those "leaps of association" ..."my words becoming prostitution" are what separate good poetry from the rest...keep it up! leap Kayla! LEAP!!! jimbo
