Laura Dee Poet Lyric

Back of the Classes

By Laura D
August 31, 2016

Through blurry lines that redesign my sunshine mind
I climb a height I never knew would drive me blind
There lies a forgotten sunset shore where my hair is longer
Where I'm a little bit stronger and their gaze never wanders

I dream this every night and wake up just the same
Too angular a face; My makeup is a game
My hunger never fades and somedays I can't see
Through every possibility where every day is just a breeze

I have anger in my heart and scars inside my head
Full of every dream i've had and all the words I've left unsaid
Bring back the empty words I never fully understood
The perfect face that stood in grace; enjoy the things I never could

Joseph P. DiMino September 11, 2016 at 8:16 AM Excellent writing! I hate being old...really resent it! And will not settle for that old cliche, "better than the alternative." But I do believe there are other youthful chances, as we mature one life after another. Only my own opinion, but I do not believe a good God would make a creation, a mankind with flaws, and then sentence His failures to everlasting penance or unhappiness. But what do I know!

Daniel Turner September 11, 2016 at 8:09 AM Pretty deep write! reads like your having some regrets. Perhaps some unfulfilled dream or missing out on a chance to be with someone. Very nebulous write.
