You Are, I Am

open your doors close all the windows sleeping's such a bore suffocate it with pillows psh, i'm not hellbent shut your mouth it's called character development WOOPS. broke routine again and the poem's gone south. made myself out to be the bad guy so they wouldn't feel as sad when i die so many so many damn times you told me all those uplifting words regarding my significance did i ever stop to listen? now look at all this tension i am the patient you're the asylum this heart rate is hesitant unless you revive them i'm the addiction and you are the needle i'm the mutilation you're the scars that will heal i am the stash and you're the supplier i am the match and you are the fire you are the truth and i am the dare you are the daydream i'm the nightmare i am the cigarette you are the lighter i am the pirouette you're the choreographer we all are so sad we've both lost our thrill that's just too bad but we both know the drill made myself out to be the bad guy so i wouldn't feel as sad when i die

It is really vital to express yourself through writing. The readers will understand you more than the one who shares to a few only by word of mouth.... Congrats Agony, for having your poem featured in the Poetrysoup homepage!!! ;-)

Very good Agony, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
