Inside View

edited August 2004 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
I walked through the valley of your heart
to view a piece of your soul.
It was lonely and lost and out of control.
I stepped through the doorway of your mind
to study the avalanche of your tears.
But I was forgotten there, like too many years...
Gone by.
I swam through the sea that was your desire
and saw that you did not want me.
For I am overlooked.
A blackened memory.
Like a hidden tattoo...
I am concealed behind your guilt
and I am smothered beneath your fear.
I am what once was
and I am what can never be.
I was your first and only
You are my last and lonely.
There is no scenic view from here...
only the broken ornament that was
a ring
the shattered promise that was
a dream
And my words...
Falling like a pile of leaves
at your feet.
Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?

    Very nice PJgirl. I can relate to this.
    Thank you for the beautiful words
    If being sane is thinking there's something wrong with being different....I'd rather be completely fucking mental.

    I wrote it while I was sitting on break at work. Usually I would spend a lot more time...especially before showing anyone what I wrote. But I was just feeling the urge. Anyway, I absolutely love this site.

    your style is familiar...hehehehehe....you write right
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
  • I like this very much. Thank you. :)

    Like a stranger's touch beneath my skin
    your words attack my nervous system.
    What was once the love only a husband could give
    has become the detachment that a lawyer might have.
    Once we walked in the field
    and laid in the haze.
    We were comfortable and comforted,
    together as one.
    We laughed at each other's faults
    and played with ease.
    achieving nothing
    but feeling everything
    with a breath of fresh life.
    Perfection was an argument over who gets the remote next.
    Or a car ride going nowhere in particular
    together.
    Now you are going anywhere you want
    without me.
    Alone.
    I am alone.
    Once we were found happy in the bed
    that we made.
    Tangled in a vast sea of blankets, giggles, and hands.
    (I was the "Cover Commander" and you were the
    "Human Heater")
    Once we were found happy in a whispering kiss
    only we could make.
    Deceived, devoured, depressed.
    Devoid of all emotion.
    Divorced of all want
    for memory.
    You left me.
    A flickering light dances effortlessly beneath the door,
    like a promising firefly.
    In my dreams it is you
    coming home.
    to the life we were making
    to the family we were planning
    to the dreams we were dreaming
    to the dinner I was cooking.
    (I promise the chicken is just right this time)
    But the light fades and the car passes
    and I am left alone.
    I cling to the scent on your old blue T-shirt
    wrapping myself up in its proposed warmth.
    I cling.
    I cling to the promise that was a ring
    and the vows
    that were a dream.
    I cling.
    I cling to the image of me, then.
    Promising to never feel hope again.
    The amber glow of dawn seeps in.
    And I am awakened from a restless slumber.
    With a soul shattering sigh I realize...
    At last
    the covers are all mine.

    I can totally relate to your first poem (read my last post). An excellent piece of work....keep it up. I really like the imagery you painted with that one.
    Only with our eyes closed can we truly see

    I fell into the abyss
    that was your kiss
    I drowned in the lies
    that were your eyes

    I am bitter jealousy
    and tastelss envy
    For the hands that hold you
    and the heart that unfolds you

    You were mine for a day
    in the most regretful way
    I realize it was a trick
    that you played so quick

    I was an unsuspecting friend
    so surprised in the end
    Your deceit was an enemy
    you are the dust behind me

    I HAVE BEEN CHECKING OUT YOUR WORK AND I AM SOOOOOOOOO IMPRESSED, JEALOUS, AND SURPRISED.
    I work at a bank and ever since I found this Message Pit I just sit here and type up poems.
    It is much different then sitting at home alone and writing in one of my notebooks but it still seems to work for me somehow.
    Anyway, thanks for the compliment!!!

    The taste of mint
    on my tongue and
    the scent of coconut in my hair.
    These things I remember.
    The wash of emotion
    that ravaged my skin
    Over and over and over again.
    I remember...
    The wet breath on the back of my hand,
    the gentle lay of the land
    A rumble of thunder
    beyond the horizon.
    A castle built in the sand.
    The silky skin on the arch of your foot
    and the salty kiss on your lips.
    The sparkle of ocean in your eyes
    The heat between your thighs.
    The wake of two passing ships.
    The gruff laugh of a king
    The promise of a ring...
    A poem at dawn
    A lullaby at sunset
    These things I choose to forget...
    The silent tears of a soldier.
    The dying words of a man.
    The voice on the end of the line
    and the last "I love you"
    before the end of time.

    thanks pjgirl2004 .. i can very much relate to your poems :)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green
