Save


Surprised as you have arrived Is it you, to once again deceive me With your fake wicked attraction Innocently here to try and relieve me Lost thoughts of dying, broken love Penned with sweat and blood stained Words of mine washed and faded away Bringing forth tears and blue painful rain Obsessed with the present electronic age Have you lost yourself now old and dull? Beautiful thoughts or emotions with rage Pushing those words from my very soul Sky blue, faded yellow and sage Crumpled lying memories from the past Wrinkled, and hidden away as we age Words were penned, that never did last Transforming and freeing the mind Inner thoughts we once held dear Old and used, thoughts with pen unwind Looking for usage, as you were always near Near no more, hidden and thrown away Twisted, and not used to the fullest Never to see the break of any day And there you are, and there you lay

Unique in its portrayal of the once white sheet of paper that contained our inner most thoughts as we wrote our diary of life on it but now gives way to the electronic age but still serves a very useful purpose.

Dear Staci - this smacks of a particular melancholy that i am well familiar with - one that grips the heart with the undeniablility and rancor of what it is, and also the lacings and subtle undertones of what it could be if the points of focus were different.
You are fearlessly open here!

Pretty passionate memoir of an obviously past relationship. I like the telescopic vision back to the your past, as it seems you are almost reading poems or letters whose emotions no longer live in you. And that's how life is sometimes... we move on(and that's good)
