Heart Song #309
I wrote this in June 2004.. it was posted on allpoetry as a story by mistake. It was one of those poems I wrote during my emo "I don't have a boyfriend yet" stage so obviously at that point it was not based on an actual break up. I referenced lyrics from Drowning By Dashborad Confessional and Don't Know Why by Norah Jones.
I stand here confusedw
ondering where our relationship went astray
asking questions day by day
Was it something I did?
Something was it something that was said?
I'm going overall types of scenariosin my head
I sit here trying to make sense of it
alltrying to understandand now
I set here kneeling in the sandc
atching teardrops in my hand
Something was leftu nsaid
and I came undone'
breaking downin tearsin the middle of hallway
The day I fell in lovewith you
I didn't listen to my friendswhen they offered the advice
Don't follow your heart
because it just seems to get in your way
Who can comfort these tears?No
onecuz my heart is drenchedi
n wineand you'll be on my mind
Forever
This is probably one of my worst poems because I think I tried to incorporate the lyrics to hard into the poem which runined the overall effect of the piece.
Curious to know what others think.
