I'M Not Good For You

Aren't I your dearest and best
Aren't I your sweetest of hearts
Aren't I your reason to smile
Aren't I your me...

Tell me...

So,
Bells of hurt in the heart
Resounds a painful symphony
Mixed in jockeys of hurtful memories

Hateful iris
Flaming tongue
Freezing lips
Play and recites
My pain and my hurt

I fell in love with you
And gave you my heart and my mind
Intwined like a line
Stick close like you're mine

But you seem to know better
What I feel for you
How long I could walk for you
And how much I love you

In a split second
I've lived an eon with you in my mind
Lying in the warmth of the sands of the time
Flying and holding limbs like kings with wings

In your eyes lies
Galleries of art
Prisons of hurt
Recitals of misery new

In my tooth
Bears your tattoo
Tutor on scooter
You like I like that too

Chasing your name
In alphabets like rain
Down thru the drain
Ain't nothing new to me

You never mind
All of these
Because
I wasn't one of ya geeks

I tried to keep you close
But you pushed me away
Like forage of hay
I'm not even gay

It's really hurtful
But I must have to say
That I'm going away
My darling, Poetry...

I'm not just good for you
