where i belong

bodies are distant
bound only by love
souls are so close they touch

I cried a tear into the river and it ran to you. Like every part of me it just wanted to leave this emptiness and be whole, where it belonged. you cupped the water in your hands and drank from me, once again I'm part of you, where I belong.

    simple and true....i like it !
    It doesnt hurt.... when I bleed
    but memories...they eat me
    I've seen it all before,...
    bring it on cause I'm no victim.

    Thank you :) very true, except for the part about crying into a river, that's not to be taken literally :D but metaphorically (or whatever the right word is) speaking it's all 100% true as I see it. I'm temporarily apart from who I should always be with and it feels so wrong/hurts so bad........

    I love this poem.
    I shouldn't have to fight a battle I'll never win, just to lose those I've never had.

    Hmm, wow, I never expected such nice responses. Thank you all. I'm just sharing my experience and it's great to see that those going through the same experience can relate. Thanks.

    I'm sorry, but to use my poem is going to require a small fee, a ticket to pearl jams next concert plus airfare from Australia should suffice. Kidding :) go for it. what a compliment.

    By the way, it's how I've been feeling the last couple of weeks. Soon though, very soon, I'll have him back again :) for a few days at least. Then his off again. Can't wait till it's all over come mid-november.

    I did the same, and didn't even ask for permission :o
    For some odd reason I thought you were a boy. I should have known better :)

    That's ok I think I wouldn't mind being a boy, except for the fact that I like men (well one man in particular).

    I'll tell you what, for two tickets to a pearl jam show (seated together) and two aeroplane tickets (seated together) from Australia to said show, I will let you tell him you wrote it :)

    both you and meme used it. I think I might have to start my own greeting card company at this rate :) Haha, yeah right.

    Wow...that is so pretty *tear*:(
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

    This song has been speaking tio me lately..

    Oh, life it seems a struggle between
    What we see and what we do
    I'm not going to change my ways
    Just to please you
    or appease you
    Look at this crowd
    nine thousand proud
    Willing to punch it out
    Right, wrong,
    weak, strong
    Ashes to ashes
    all fall down
    Oh, Look around
    about this round
    About this merry-go-round
    around
    If at all God's gaze upon us fall
    His mischievous grin
    look at him
    Forget about the reasons
    and The treasons
    we are seeking
    Forget about the notion that
    Our emotions can be kept at bay
    Forget about being guilty,
    We are innocent instead
    For soon we will all find our lives swept away

    Oh, Look at me in my fancy car
    And my bank account
    Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
    Into my grave
    God knows I'd save
    and save
    Man, Take a look again
    take a look again,
    Things you have collected,
    Well in the end it all piles up
    so tall
    to one big nothing
    one big nothing at all
    And you know how it is,

    You seek up an emotion
    And our cup is overflowing
    You seek up an emotion,
    Sometimes your well is dry
    You seek up a big monster
    For him to fight your wars for you
    But when he finds his way to you, the devil's not
    Going--ha, ha
    Say, oh say
    oh
    Late at night
    with TV's hungry child
    his belly swells
    Well, for the price of a coke
    or a smoke
    I could keep alive
    those hungy eyes
    Take a look again
    take a look again,
    Take a look again
    Everyday things change,
    basically they stay the same

    Forget about the reasons and
    The treasons we are seeking
    Forget about the notion that
    Our emotions can be kept at bay
    Forget about being guilty,
    We are innocent instead
    For soon we will all find our lives swept away

    You seek up an emotion
    And our cup is overflowing
    You seek up an emotion,
    Sometimes your well is dry
    You seek up a big monster
    For him to fight your wars for you
    But when he finds his way to you,
    The devil's not going--ha, ha
    Fall back again
    fall back again, fall back again...
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
    Fall back again...
