Emotionless

EMOTIONLESS

By morning wake
When the light in my face
I'm reminded of your disgrace!

How can I do this to myself?
How do I wish Calgon would take me away?
Will I ever wake like the melody of the Blue Jay?

What am I suppose to do?
Shut myself down from this misery?
Emotionless, because I am too weak to be strong

It's my fault for inviting
-he that dropped my heart from cloud nine
Well, I have nothing else to say.
Except, "life has no meaning, and here I am GONE!"
Emotionless

Extremely insightful - but though we at times hide or lock away our emotions we still have them! Remember the Vulcans LOL :)

Hey girl, waas up? Great write from sometime ago, but I hadn't read it, so...I imagine you're tucked safely and warmly in a healthy relationship by now--I hope so. If not, misery loves company, so come on by :) SKAT, you rock my world...xxx...Mel :)

We are built upon the experiences of our life. And so it may be hard at times, in the end it makes us who we are. So never ever give up or you'll miss a great ending. Always enjoy reading your poems. Take care always.

Funny you should mention it... I was just thinking about shooting myself today, it was after attending a writers workship! I hope your emotionlessness doesn't last forever. Julie

yes, life goes on, well written piece, although life goes on "every day", perhaps until we breathe no more... I tend to take things literal, forgive me. Cindy
