Poem
Stimulating ideas pop into your head You need a pen…you need a piece of lined paper and you gave it your best shot to pass the difficult test It looks like you’re outtah luck…you received an F for Failure…no wonder you’re drowning in dread You need a shoulder to lie your head down for a moment’s rest… I didn’t mean to be a bothersome pest You need a helper…to aid you while you struggle emotionally… I’m not trying to irritate you on purpose, but I want you to be unchained free from the chains that dejected you totally! Fly with me in the aqua-blue sky and reach for the clouds You were unable to flee due to suffocating in custody’s shrouds I must endure till the end...life is one massive errand In hopelessness and fear, love and hope wasn’t in mind and my heart dwells Around every dark corner…I was floating gaily on the riverbed…happy-go-luckily paddling around, wandering around aimlessly I never thought you’d let me drown in my detestable dread – you would rather see me dead probably My heart is bleeding out like a river of blood…frankly, driving me insane I feel like messy folders, left in the dusty office of nothingness...you stored me in a dark place I once called my "Heavenly Haven" The memories of you with me send vibes down my spine…mirror my pain and see to it that we receive vast amounts of His Healing Rain Now, I drown in the tears of shame You hunted me down like game...I was that animal, dead and lame I was busy looking for heaven But it was all the same I'm untamed ...so unleash your inner inspiration and shower it down on me Hell I remain in blinded by you but now I SEE Now I'm drowning once again waiting to be saved in this lonely and deep dark sea While you I left to be ever so free That I've fallen way down...I've been weighed down...agony - the countless drops of despair and dismay -is what I stumble upon...I gave my heart a break...for heaven's sake and I've taken all that I can take...I drown in blasphemy's flames of uncertainty and toil of plenty I watch you as you, without permission, flee…with a never-ending attitude of gratitude and you wore sunlit glee To a certain degree, you tried to set me free...free...from our own captivities...but failure kept pace with you... I hope you can see...see...falling in love is only in fairy tales, you see? You got love affection attention comfort and honesty but you never gave me any Now from your actions you spun this deceitful web the reason I remain ever so blue You outran me with your bottomless cheers and hopes...you lifted yourself up with your accomplishments Like a shadow lost under a tree You got me nowhere and no achievements I'm a fly, trapped in the web of bewilderment...and you wrapped me in woe-made worthlessness Rapt in rue... Sick of feeling blue You drowned me With your river of tears, you see? I thought you and I could be elevated by creativity and be enlightened by the endless wonders of the deep, mysterious, blue sea You left me there to wither and fade away with nothing more than emptiness and hopelessness On you were left to flee…you are set free from your catastrophe Feeling hollow and doused in dismay...what can I say on a day like today? Did I ever make progress? Why wouldn’t the memories just let me be? You keep telling me over and over again that you want to be free You aren't free because you are enchanted by your lusts and under the spell of sin You blinded me by your vain lies – I thought you were the best, but now I’m forced with a broken heart to wave my goodbyes You tried to dress me up with happiness, but behind my clothes, I felt naked, lost, bewildered and felt less like a human...naked and ashamed – that’s how I felt deep down inside…I was caught up in a total mess...but, I must confess – Your ways tainted me like the ink of the tattoo under my shedding skin. You left me to be for awhile in loneliness…my alienated ambition and hope strengthened me with passion and adrenalin You drugged me up with your lies and fervent, false fantasies from deep within; Yet, darling, I would like to thank you for helping me out through thick and thin I’m writing words of truth though – Expressing how much I’m fond of you
