with emotions running high.... .
coming to terms with what's inside....
trying to express what i cannot say
searching for something to explain...
trying to convey that i am in dismay

with a four letter word
it sounds so absurd
but my ears don't obey.... .

    sweet
    The universe is shaped exactly like the earth if you go
    straight long enough you'll end up where you were.

    Yes. This is a true love poem in acknowledging how love is tongue-tied, and I like it. I'm reminded of Cordelia who, when asked to explain the nature of her love to King Lear, calls it "Nothing". And Cordelia loved truest of all. True love in poetry is in a poem's acknowledgement of love's linguistic inexpressibility.

    I'm not sure if it's about love, but it's interesting.

    I'm not sure either, but I'm guessing what the four-letter word is. I think it's love. It may be fear. It may be fear of love. But I think it's love.

    :)

    Who knows! :D

    I liked it anyway.

    winds blowing by
    thoughts floating with them
    thinking back to a distant time
    my how we've come to pass

    Looking backwards
    we must not fear what we cannot see
    for time is vast...and we are here..
    All is moving...we want to grasp what we cannot have...

    why must we revert ourselves
    what do we gain..if nothing at all

    why must we try and obtain what we cannot have

    i like the way you write, bro
    and i can relate.
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame

    its funny when there's one word
    a word you see almost every day
    and don't take much notice of
    and then suddenly
    with a twist of fate
    or humor from whoever above
    or just *twisted* life as it is
    you can never look at that word
    in the same way again
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame

    i think its a self destructive chip in the brain...

    Coming along...
    Driving down the road...
    Ignoring the signs...
    Speed bumps take us off course...

    What was i supposed to do
    What i thought wasn't true?
    How was i suppose to know...
    all of this was gonna happen....
    Things just come crashing down...

    Like a calm in a storm...
    Drifting slowly by...by....by
    It hits without so much as a hello...
    Waves....winds..its all the same..

    What was i supposed to do..
    What I thought wasn't true?
    How was i to know...all of this..

    Coming along...
    Driving down the road...
    Ignoring the signs...
    Speed bumps take us off course...

    We are still on....we are still on...
