And I Fade Away

A million scenes fall to my screen, my eyes blur and I loose my sight The knott that lingers in my trhoat stiffins and I loose my breath Her tone shatters my youth, I crawl in shame yet I look not her way Out of pain many can sing, and all I do is hold still and weep inside Beyond her judgement I hide, for she stabbs my heart with words Her spoken speech yelles at me and again I cry A firm tone towards those whom to her express love She drops my vessel of life and I scream in pain For the love begins to leak A walking second took me by surprise For she once wanted to be my baby, and now she roleplays my father Am I to be perfect? Never for we all have faults I stand to be a poet, a romantic speaker, I melt the flowers as I near I can hear them speak of old beauty, and it too faded just like that Its the touch of a womans hand that soothes me completely from head to toe Her scent that awakes in me the adventure I preach about Cut the chain so that I may run in fantasy Yet don't give me rope to fall face first when its all fake... yes no hope I hear the clicking of teeth and they chew in agony I loose my feel, I fade away -your poet always

Incredible insight in this poem, Eduardo. I was fascinated by the way your role changed in her eyes and how you hoped to reawaken the "adventure" in your life. Excellent write! Love, Carolyn
