I'll lift this veil and speak the truth
Your tales, no longer intrigue
Your eyes, hold me no more
Your complacency has driven a length
I’ll not close again
When next you reach
Air will replace me
As I’ve walked away
But you’re too blind to see
Remove the hands from your eyes
Look at me, as I say goodbye
Fm 12-29-08
The haze has been lifted
I see you in truth
My eyes have snapped open
My mind cleared of filth
You are not your sweet words
And dear I can't stay
I pulled all this time
You just pushed me away
The carriage ride's over
Your horse and master are gone
Yelling won't make it better
Only move me further along
It's my path ahead
No longer yours to share
I was solitary before
I don't need your shadows here
Step out of my sun
You've blocked it too long
Let go of my compass
And find your own way home
Fm 12-28-08
A smile flashes her lips
Rose petals caress her cheeks
Her eyes do not match
The mood her body seeks
Patience is waning
And she sits upon hands
Inside she is screaming
"Get me out of this sham!"
But she dares not betray
The act she's put on
So she sits and she wonders
"How long 'til I'm gone?"
This scene plays before her
Thousands of times she's seen
How the men will all falter
At the girl being keen
She's the answer they want
Or so the fools think
Her skill is the game
No company, she keeps
Yet again they return
Faithful as foolish sheep
She smiles her candied lips
Laughs with a punished ease
The madness at tongue tip
Joy is lost to the tease
Her will is her way
Never revealing the fears
She will triumph this day
And tonight lose to tears
Fm 12-28-08
You are correct
There are no poems here
It's been a busy month
I'll write when I can
I have so much to say
The weeks of finals,
Holidays,
Everything else
My notebook feels neglected
As does my mind
I'll find the spark of inspiration
In the calm of the night
Until then my friends
Enjoy my nonsense words
Just filling up space
I still have 2 days.... :p
